Plant Cells 2

What is the function of the cell membrane?

• to control which substances can enter or leave the cell.

• to capture energy from sunlight and use it to produce food for the cell

• to store genetic information

• to make energy through cellular respiration.

What is the function of the cell wall?

• to make energy through cellular respiration.

• to make food through photosynthesis, and contain chlorophyll

• to contain the cell's genetic material & be the control center of the cell.

• to support the cell and provide shape.

What is cellular respiration?

• the process that occurs in the mitochondria to break down sugar to release energy.

• the process that occurs in the nucleus to break down sugar to release energy.

• the process that occurs in chloroplasts to use the sun's energy to make food.

• the process that occurs in the cell wall to use the sun's energy to make food.

How are plant cells and animal cells different?

• Plant cells have a nucleus while animal cells do not have a nucleus.

• Animal cells carry out photosynthesis while plant cells carry out cellular respiration.

• Animals cells have a rigid cell wall and chloroplasts, while plant cells lack cell walls and chloroplasts.

• Plant cells have a rigid cell wall and chloroplasts, while animal cells lack cell walls and chloroplasts.

How are plant cells and animal cells similar?

• They both carry out photosynthesis.

• They both have chloroplasts.
• They both have a nucleus, cell wall, and mitochondria.

• They both have a nucleus, cell membrane, & mitochondria.

Do both animals cells and plant cells carry out photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

• No, animal cells carry out photosynthesis and plant cells carry out cellular respiration.

• No, animal cells only carry out cellular respiration but plant cells do both.

• Yes, animals cells and plant cells carry out both.

• No, animals cells and plant cells don't do either.
