What is the function of the cell membrane?

• The cell membrane functions as a storage unit for excess nutrients.

• The function of the cell membrane is to regulate the passage of substances into and out of the cell.

• The cell membrane acts as a barrier to prevent any substances from entering the cell.

• The cell membrane is responsible for producing energy for the cell.

What is the function of the cytoplasm in a cell?

• Cytoplasm functions as a storage unit for waste materials in a cell.

• The cytoplasm is responsible for DNA replication in a cell.

• The function of the cytoplasm in a cell is to house various cellular organelles and serve as the site for many cellular processes.

• Cytoplasm is involved in regulating cell division in a cell.

What is the role of ribosomes in a cell?

• Ribosomes store genetic information

• Ribosomes synthesize proteins.

• Ribosomes regulate cell division

• Ribosomes produce energy for the cell

What is the difference between plant and animal cells?

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

• Plant cells have flagella, while animal cells do not.

• Plant cells have a cell wall, chloroplasts, and a large central vacuole, while animal cells have centrioles.

• Animal cells have a cell wall, while plant cells do not.

How do cells reproduce?

• Cells reproduce through cell division, specifically mitosis for somatic cells and meiosis for reproductive cells.

• Cells reproduce through photosynthesis

• Cells reproduce by forming alliances with other cells

• Cells reproduce by jumping from one organism to another
