Unit 2 Cells Anatomy Test

The primary function of the plasma membrane in a cell is:

• To control the movement of substances into and out of the cell

• To produce energy for the cell

• To store genetic information

• To synthesize proteins

The function of mitochondria and their essential role for cellular function is to:

• Produce energy for the cell through cellular respiration.

• Store genetic information for the cell.

• Control the movement of substances in and out of the cell.

• Synthesize proteins for the cell.

The nucleus contributes to cellular activities by:

• controlling cell functions and storing genetic information

• producing energy for the cell

• digesting waste materials

• transporting substances across the cell membrane

Ribosomes play the following role in protein synthesis:

• They assemble amino acids to form proteins.

• They store genetic information.

• They break down waste materials.

• They transport oxygen in the blood.

Differentiate between rough ER and smooth ER in terms of structure and function.

• Rough ER has ribosomes and is involved in protein synthesis, while smooth ER lacks ribosomes and is involved in lipid synthesis.

• Rough ER lacks ribosomes and is involved in lipid synthesis, while smooth ER has ribosomes and is involved in protein synthesis.

• Both rough ER and smooth ER have ribosomes and are involved in protein synthesis.

• Both rough ER and smooth ER lack ribosomes and are involved in lipid synthesis.

The function of the Golgi apparatus is:

• to modify, sort, and package proteins and lipids for secretion or delivery to other organelles

• to produce energy through cellular respiration

• to synthesize proteins from amino acids

• to store genetic information

The function and importance of lysosomes in the cell is to:

• Break down waste materials and cellular debris

• Produce energy for the cell

• Synthesize proteins

• Store genetic information

Cytoplasm is a part of the cell that:

• fills the cell and holds organelles in place

• controls the cell's activities

• produces energy for the cell

• stores genetic information

The nucleolus contributes to cell function by:

• producing ribosomes

• storing genetic information

• controlling cell division

• regulating cell membrane transport

The primary role of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in cells is:

• to synthesize proteins and lipids

• to generate energy through cellular respiration

• to store genetic information

• to control cell division
