Cell Structure

The nucleus houses genetic material in _________ cells

Which organelle deals with making lipids and detoxification of drugs?

• Nucleus

• Golgi Apparatus

• Cell Wall

• Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum

What does the cytoskeleton do?

• Provides structural support and transportation within cells

• Fluid that keeps organelles in place and protected

• Only found in plant cells, the site of photosynthesis

• Packages and ships proteins into vesicles for release from the cell

What organelle packages proteins for transport out of the cell?

• Vacuole

• Mitochondria

• Golgi Apparatus

• Lysosome

What are the components of the cell theory?

• All living things are made of cells

• Cells have organelles

• Cells are the most basic unit of structure

• New cells are made from pre-existing cells

The mitochondria breaks down _________ to gain energy. This is called cell respiration.

What is the lysosome's role in the cell?

• It makes glucose by bringing in CO2 and H2O

• It stores materials the cell may need later

• It makes cleaning proteins

• It breaks down materials that cell no longer needs

The ___ ______ is a mostly impermeable structure that provides support to certain cells.

Plant cells tend to have very large vacuoles that

• break down glucose into energy

• provide structural support and prevent the cell from collasping

• move materials around the cell to various organelles

• store materials such as water

Photosynthesis occurs in the _________ of plant cells.
