Cell Organelles Review

In prokaryotes, what is the name of the permeable boundary around the cell?

Answer explanation

In the Wiley tutorial you may have seen the answer as mesosome. Mesosomes are infolding of the cell membrane. The cell membrane is the permeable boundary of the cell itself.

In eukaryotic cells, which organelle generates energy for the cell?

• golgi apparatus

• mitochondria

• chloroplast

• vacuole

• rough endoplasmic reticulum
