Review Quiz #5

What is the function of ribosomes in a cell?

• Makes its own food - autotrophs - bottom of food chain

• Cell organelle that helps make proteins

• Carries oxygen in the blood

• Composed of hundreds of glucose molecules linked together and made by plants

What is a zygote?

• A fertilized egg cell - diploid

• Cells in the body that defend against disease

• Made from chains of amino acids

• An organ that allows for the exchange of nutrients between mother and fetus

Which of the following is a renewable resource?
