Cell Structure and Function Ch. 1

What is the function of a cell membrane?

• to control what enters and leaves the cell

• to support the cell

• to perform different functions in each cell

• to form a hard outer covering for the cell

Unlike the cell wall, the cell membrane

• is made of chromatin.

• is found in all cells.

• produces energy for the cell.

• protects the nucleus with a rigid layer of cellulose.

Which of the following best describes the function of mitochondria?

• They convert energy from food molecules into energy the cell can use.

• They produce nucleic acids that release energy.

• They store energy from food molecules.

• They store energy from sunlight.
