The role of the cytoplasm in a cell is to

To control what enters and exits the cell

What is the function of the cell wall in plant cells?

To provide structural support and protection

Match the following functions with their descriptions:

They provide energy to the cell

They determine the inherited traits of an organism

They protect the cell from damage

They use energy from the sun to make food

How do chromosomes contribute to the inheritance of traits?

By coding for proteins that express traits

Gregor Mendel studies the genetics of pea plants. He found that some pea plants produce smooth, round seeds, while other pea plants produce rough, wrinkled seeds. Which cellular feature determines whether a pa plant produces smooth or wrinkled seeds?

Information present in chromosomes in the nucleus

Information located in the plasma membrane

Instructions found in proteins of the cytoplasm

Chemical signals released by mitochondria

Which of the following accurately describe genes? Select ALL that apply.

Genes determine inherited traits.

Genes are located on chromosomes.

Genes are found only in the cell's mitochondria.

Each parent has one copy of each of their genes.

Match each labeled part of the cell to its function.

protection from outside environment

A student wants to model what happens when plants are placed in either direct light or darkness. She pots two identical small plants and places one in direct sunlight and the other in a dark room. She waters both each day. After several days, this is what she finds: Which of the following correctly describes the observations she makes?

Pot A was in direct sunlight because the chloroplasts in the plant cells were able to absorb energy and make food for the plant to grow.

Pot A was in direct sunlight because the cell walls in the plant cells were able to absorb energy.

Pot B was in direct sunlight because the cell walls in the plant cells were able to absorb energy.

Pot B was in direct sunlight because the chloroplasts in the plant cells were able to absorb energy and make food for the plant to grow.
