Some organelles are present in both plant and animal cells. Each organelle performs a different function. Which of the functions listed below are performed by organelles found in both plants and animals?

• Convert solar energy into chemical energy; store DNA; provide a rigid outer membrane that gives the cell support.

• Support the cell from the inside; provide a rigid outer membrane that gives the cell support; break down chemical energy.

• Break down chemical energy; store DNA; provide a permeable barrier for the cell.

• Provide a liquid medium that protects and sustains other organelles; support the cell from the inside; convert solar energy into chemical energy.

Most organisms are known by their common names, which vary by region and language. They also have scientific names based on their classification. How are scientific names determined?

• by using trinomial nomenclature, where the first part of an organism's name is its order, the second part is its kingdom, and the third part is its phylum

• by using polynomial nomenclature, where the first part of organism's name its it order, followed by its domain, species, and kingdom

• by using binomial nomenclature, where the first part of an organism's name is its genus, and the second part is its species

• by using uninomial nomenclature, where the single name is a combination of the kingdom and
