Cell Organelles

What are chromosomes?

• threadlike structures made of DNA molecules that contain genes

• threadlike structures made of cytyoplasm

• Inside the nucleus

• Inside the vacuoles

What is the cytoplasm?

• material that fills the empty space of the vacuoles

• material that fills the empty space of the chloroplasts

• contains DNA

• material that fills the empty space of a cell

What are eukaryotic cells?

• have a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles

• bacterial cells

• plant cells

• animal cells

What are prokaryotic cells?

• bacterial cells

• plant cells

• cells that do not have membrane-bound organelles

• animal cells

Vacuoles

• in plant and animal cells

• store food, water, and waste material

• breaks down material inside the cell

Vacuoles are much larger in plant cells.

• true

• false

What is the function of chloroplasts?

• stores proteins needed for the cell

• uses energy from the sun to make food

• uses proteins to make food for the cell

What is the function of the mitochondria?

• uses energy from the sun to make food

• makes energy available to the cell

• makes proteins

• removes waste out of the cell

What is the function of the golgi apparatus?

• modifies, packages, and transports proteins and prepares them for use

• uses energy from the sun to make food for the cell

• tightly packs DNA into chromosomes inside the nucleus

Nucleus

• in both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells

• contains DNA

• control center of the cell

• in eukaryotic cells
