If you wanted to find DNA, where would you look?

• Inside a cell's ribosomes.

• Inside a cell's nucleus.

• Inside a cell's Golgi bodies.

• Inside a cell's vacuoles.

If a cell has waste it needs to store, it will store it:

• In the endoplasmic reticulum.

• In the cytoplasm.

• In the nucleus.

• In vacuoles.

What do lysosomes and Golgi bodies have in common?

• They're the twin "command centers" of the cell.

• They break down food and release energy.

• They're examples of cell organelles.

• They control how much oxygen enters a cell.
