• are both prokaryotic

• are both eukaryotic

• do not have a nucleus

• do not have DNA

Check all the organelles that can be found in an animal cell.

• chloroplasts

• mitochondria

• nucleus

• golgi complex

NGSS.MS-LS1-2

The function of the mitochondria is

• is to make proteins for the cell.

• transport materials in and out of the cell.

• break down waste products for the cell.

• break down glucose through cellular respiration and make energy for the cell.

Both an animal cell and a plant cell have a cell membrane.

• TRUE

• FALSE

Genetic material can be found in what organelle?

• the golgi complex

• the mitochondria

• the nucleus

• the chloroplasts

Check the functions of the cell wall.

• provides support for the plant cell

• provides structure and support for the plant cell

• provides energy for the animal cell

• provides structure for the animal cell

Check the three major differences between a plant cell and an animal cell.

• cell wall

• mitochondria

• large central vacuole

• chloroplasts

Chloroplasts are organelles that

• make food for the plant cell by going through photosynthesis.

• transport proteins.

• package materials and distribute them throughout the cell.

• break down waste products.

Lysosomes that are found in animal cells are like the "trash bags" of the cell because they

• move materials throughout the cell.

• release digestive enzymes that break down worn-out and damaged organelles and waste material in the cell.

• make food for the cell.

• make proteins for the cell.
