Cell Structure and Function

This organelle acts like a gatekeeper, allowing some materials to pass through it, but not others. 

• Cytoplasm
• Cell Membrane
• Mitochondria
• Vacuole

What structure is in plant cells but not animal cells?

• Cell Membrane
• Mitochondria
• Cell Wall
• Vacuole

This organelle is a gel-like fluid that takes up most of the space inside the cell. 

• Cytoplasm
• Cell Membrane
• Vacuole
• Golgi Body

Where is the genetic material found in the cell? 

• Nucleolus
• Cytoplasm
• Nucleus
• Chloroplast

What distinguishes a eukaryotic cell from a prokaryotic cell is the presence of 

• A cell wall
• A nucleus
• DNA
• Ribosomes

Which one of the following is not part of the cell theory?

• all living things are made of cells
• cells are the basic units of structure and function of living things
• new cells are produced from existing cells
• cells never die

What structure is responsible for making proteins?

• Nucleus
• Mitochondria
• Golgi Apparatus
• Ribosome

Which organelle packages up waste to be eliminated?

• Golgi Complex
• ribosomes
• nucleus
• Endoplasmic Reticulum

What is the difference between rough and smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum?

• There is no difference.
• Plants have rough ER, animals have smooth ER.
• What type of injuries the Doctors treat.
• Rough has ribosomes, smooth does not.

Plant cells and animal cells

• are both prokaryotic

• are both eukaryotic

• do not have a nucleus

• do not have DNA
