Cell Organelles Quiz

This organelle provides energy for cells. Hint: It is where cellular respiration occurs. It is sometimes called the powerhouse of the cell.

• Mitochondria

• Cellular Membrane

• Nucleus

• Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)

This organelle cleans up cellular waste Hint: It is sometimes called the "stomach" of the cell.

• Mitochondria

• Lysosome

• Endoplasmic Reticulum

• Golgi Apparatus

This organelle is like the brain of the cell. Hint: It is circular and it is typically located near the center of the cell. It is ONLY found in Eukaryotes

• Mitochondria

• Lysosome

• Nucleus

• Golgi Apparatus

This organelle is responsible for transporting materials around the cell. Hint: We sometimes abbreviate it since it is a long two words

• Mitochondria

• Lysosome

• Endoplasmic Reticulum

• Golgi Apparatus

This organelle packages materials for the cell Hint: It works closely with the Endoplasmic Reticulum

• Mitochondria

• Nucleus

• Golgi Apparatus

• Ribosome

This is the jellylike substance that fills the whole cell and provides food and water for the cell. Hint: It is where all the stuff inside the cell is located

• Golgi Body

• Cytoplasm

• Endoplasmic Reticulum

• Golgi Apparatus

This part of the cell acts like the entrance and exit allowing certain materials to come in and leave the cell Hint: It surrounds the whole cell

• Lysosome

• Golgi Apparatus

• Cell Wall

• Cell Membrane

Cell Movement

• Pseudopod

• Long, whip-like structure that helps single-celled organisms move

• Flagellum

• A temporary growth on a cell that allows it to be mobile, almost like a little foot... can also help cells move like snails.

• Cilia

• Short, hair-like structures that cover the surface of some cells and help them move

What are the 3 parts of the cell theory? Hint: There are actually 3 parts to it.

• All Living things are made of cells.

• Cells are the basic units of life.

• All cells come from existing cells.

• More than 1 cell is needed for life.

• Viruses are alive

What kind of cells are bacteria? Hint: These are the basic cells without organelles.
