MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

30 sec • 1 pt

Which of the following cell parts can be found in plant cells but are absent in animal cells?

Cell wall and chloroplasts

Cell membrane and nucleus

Mitochondria and cell membrane

Ribosomes and cytoplasm

Answer explanation

Plant cells have a cell wall and chloroplasts, which are not found in animal cells. The cell wall provides structure, while chloroplasts are essential for photosynthesis, making this the correct choice.

A student is building a diagram showing how proteins are made inside animal cells. Which organelle would be the least helpful to include in the model?

Ribosomes

Endoplasmic reticulum

Golgi apparatus

Chloroplasts

Answer explanation

Chloroplasts are not found in animal cells; they are involved in photosynthesis in plant cells. Therefore, they are the least helpful organelle to include in a model of protein synthesis in animal cells.

Which organelle is correctly matched with its main function?

Vacuole – stores water and other materials

Cell membrane – divides the cell into two halves

Lysosome – produces proteins

Ribosome – modifies and transports proteins

Answer explanation

The vacuole is correctly matched with its function of storing water and other materials, which is essential for maintaining cell turgor and storing nutrients. The other options incorrectly describe the functions of their respective organelles.

The pancreas produces enzymes used for digestion. Which structure would be found in large numbers inside pancreatic cells?

Ribosomes

Chloroplasts

Cell walls

Vacuoles

Answer explanation

Ribosomes are essential for protein synthesis, including digestive enzymes produced by pancreatic cells. Chloroplasts and cell walls are not found in animal cells, and vacuoles are not abundant in pancreatic cells.

When comparing a prokaryotic cell, a plant cell, and an animal cell, which two structures would show the cell belongs to a plant?

Nucleus and mitochondria

Cell wall and chloroplast

Cell membrane and ribosomes

Nucleus and Golgi body

Answer explanation

The presence of a cell wall and chloroplasts are unique to plant cells. The cell wall provides structure, while chloroplasts are essential for photosynthesis, distinguishing plant cells from prokaryotic and animal cells.

MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

30 sec • 1 pt

Which list includes structures found in plant cells but not in animal cells?

Cell wall, large vacuole, chloroplast

Cytoplasm, nucleus, mitochondria

Ribosomes, cytoskeleton, chromosomes

Cilia, flagella, endoplasmic reticulum

Answer explanation

The correct choice, 'Cell wall, large vacuole, chloroplast', includes structures unique to plant cells. Animal cells lack a cell wall and chloroplasts, while large vacuoles are typically much smaller in animal cells.

How do the structures of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells differ?

Prokaryotes lack a nucleus and mitochondria, while eukaryotes have both.

Prokaryotes have a nucleus, while eukaryotes do not.

Prokaryotes have membrane-bound organelles, while eukaryotes do not.

Both types of cells lack a cell membrane.

Answer explanation

Prokaryotic cells are simpler and do not have a nucleus or mitochondria, while eukaryotic cells are more complex and contain both a nucleus and mitochondria, making the first answer choice correct.
