There are more ribosomes in animal cells than in plant cells.
Plant cells have more lysosomes than animal cells have.
Plant cells have large vacuoles, and animal cells do not.
The position of the nucleus in the cells is different in plants and animals.
Which organelle should be listed under “Animal Only” in a Venn diagram?

Cell wall
Which organelle is used as temporary storage for water, waste products, food, and other cellular material in plants?
Mitochondrion
Lysosome
Centriole
Vacuole
Which term describes an extensive network of tubes, sacs, and vesicles throughout a cell that has as its main function to provides transport to the Golgi Apparatus or to the outside of the cell?
Cell Membrane
Endoplasmic Reticulum
Centriole
Cell Wall
Which organelle captures the energy from sunlight and converts it to chemical energy, and in which cells could it be found?
The Golgi apparatus, which can be found in lung cells of animals
Lysosomes, which can be found in all cells of grasses
Ribosomes, which can be found in muscle cells of humans
Chloroplasts, which can be found in leaf cells of trees
Which organelle is responsible for producing the energy for cellular processes?
D, the lysosome
A, the cell membrane
E, the mitochondria
F, DNA
Which is a structure that directs the cell's activities?
Nucleus
Golgi Apparatus
Ribosomes
Mitochondrion
A student is examining leaf cells. Which organelles are most likely to be missing from the cells?
Ribosomes
Chloroplasts
Lysosomes
Mitochondria
Which is a tough and rigid layer that surrounds plant cells, as well as some algal and bacterial cells?
Cell Wall
Centriole
Nucleus
Cell Membrane
What does it mean for a membrane to be selectively permeable?
Only certain molecules are allowed to pass through.
The membrane is rigid and only allows water to pass through.
All types of molecules are able to pass into the cell.
The membrane is rigid and nothing can enter or leave the cell.
Which statement about the cell membrane is true?
It contains cellulose and sugars that are involved in communication.
It is present in animal cells only.
It is rigid and elastic for supporting the cell’s shape.
It prevents harmful substances from entering a cell.
Which statement is true about a cell wall but not a cell membrane?
It forms the outer layer of a cell.
It gives an animal cell its shape.
It is selectively permeable.
It is made mostly of cellulose.
