The function of the mitochondria is

• is to make proteins for the cell.

• transport materials in and out of the cell.

• break down waste products for the cell.

• break down glucose through cellular respiration and make energy for the cell.

Ribosomes are important because

• they make proteins for the cell.

• they make glucose for the cell.

• they transport materials throughout the cell.

• they control the cell's activities

Both an animal cell and a plant cell have a cell membrane.

• TRUE

• FALSE

Genetic material can be found in what organelle?

• the golgi complex

• the mitochondria

• the nucleus

• the chloroplasts

Smooth endoplasmic reticulum

• does not have ribosomes on the membrane and makes lipids for the cell.

• has ribosomes on the membrane and makes proteins for the cell.

• has ribosomes on the membrane and makes lipids for the cell.

• does not have ribosomes on the membrane and make glucose for the cell.

Rough endoplasmic reticulum

• does not have ribosomes on the membrane and transports proteins for the cell.

• does not have ribosomes and makes energy for the cell.

• does not have ribosomes and makes proteins for the cell.

• has ribosomes on the membrane and transports proteins for the cell.
