Bio.3b: Cell Structure

What is the name of the structure shown in the diagram where cellular respiration takes place?

• Chloroplast
• Mitochondrion
• Nucleus
• Vacuole

The site of photosynthesis

• ribosome
• mitochondria
• chloroplast
• nucleus

Which type of cell has no nucleus?

• Eukaryote
• Prokaryote
• Animal
• Plant

Which structures are found in every living cell?

• cell membrane and cytoplasm
• chloroplasts and mitochondria
• a cell wall and nucleus
• chloroplasts and cell wall

Cell organelles that are responsible for digesting food, worn out organelles and other cellular wastes are called ___________________.

• Mitochondria
• Vacuoles
• Lysosomes
• Chlororplasts

Chloroplasts in plant cells allow the plant to perform a function that animal cells cannot do.  What is the main function of the chloroplasts found in plant cells?

• to absorb light energy and manufacture food
• to remove waste materials by active transport
• to manufacture chemical energy from food
• to control the shape of the cell

Plant cells and animal cells

• are both prokaryotic

• are both eukaryotic

• do not have a nucleus

• do not have DNA

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.

Ribosomes are important because

• they make proteins for the cell.

• they make glucose for the cell.

• they transport materials throughout the cell.

• they control the cell's activities

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
