Eukaryotic Cell

What is the function of the cell (plasma) membrane?

• carry substances around the cell

• helps make ribosomes

• sort proteins and other cellular substances and package them into vesicles

• protects the cell and regulates interactions between the cell and its environment

What is the function of the cytoplasm (cytosol)?

• organelle that breaks down sugar to release the energy in it

• uses light energy to make sugar from carbon dioxide and water

• holds the organelles and is the site of many chemical reactions

• tough, rigid covering that protects the cell and gives it shape

• Prokaryotic Cells

Which cell types are eukaryotic? (You may select more than one)

• Plant

• Bacteria

• Virus

What is the function of the ribosome?

• the place where proteins are made

• organelle that breaks down sugar to release the energy in it

• uses light energy to make sugar from carbon dioxide and water

• used for temporary storage of materials like water, waste, food and other cellular materials

  (these are very large in plant cells)

What is the function of the vacuole?

• Processes cellular materials and allows for the movement of these materials around the cell

• separates the nuclear contents from the rest of the cell

• used for temporary storage of materials like water, waste, food and other cellular materials

  (these are very large in plant cells)

• organelle that breaks down sugar to release the energy in it
