Cell Organelles Review

The organelle that protects genetic information (DNA) in eukaryotic cells?

• Mitochondria

• Nucleus

• Cell membrane

• Ribosome

This organelle synthesizes (makes) proteins

• Golgi Apparatus

• Mitochondria

• Ribosome

• Lysosome

Which of the following can be found in all cells (Eukaryotes and Prokaryotes)

• Nucleus, Ribosomes, Cytoplasm

• Cell Membrane, DNA, Ribosomes

• Cell Wall, DNA, Cytoplasm

• Mitochondria, DNA, Cytoplasm

This cell structure is composed of microtubules and microfilaments. It helps organize and give structure to the cell

• Cell Wall

• Nucleus

• Cell Membrane

• Cytoskeleton

Plant cells, not animal cells, have a large storage organelle that stores water, food, waste and also gives the plant cell structure by Turgor Pressure

• Central Vacuole

• Smooth ER

• Ribosome

• Cell Wall

NGSS.MS-LS1-2

This organelle makes lipids and detoxifies poisons from the cell.

• Rough ER

• Golgi Apparatus

• Lysosomes

• Smooth ER

This organelle receives vesicles and modifies the contents, then ships them to where they are needed

• Golgi Apparatus

• Rough ER

• Ribosomes

• Lysosome

This organelle is full of powerful enzymes that are used to digest foods and waste, as well as break down old organelles

• Nucleus

• Mitochondria

• Lysosomes

• Ribosomes
