During science class, a group of students went on a field trip to a nearby pond where they collected samples of pond water and pond plants. The students used a microscope to study cells in their samples. They also took samples of their own cheek cells and studied them using the microscope. The results are shown in the following table.


According to the table provided, which pond organism shares the most characteristics with animal cells?

a)

Pond Organism #1 – it’s the only one without a cell wall and chloroplasts

b)

Pond Organism #2 – it’s the only one without a cell wall and chloroplasts

2.

What organelle gives plants their green color and enables them to produce their own food?

a)

photosynthesis

b)

cytoplasm

c)

cell wall

d)

chloroplast

3.

For what purpose does the cell membrane allow certain types of matter to pass into the cell?

a)

To provide the cell with energy it needs

b)

To provide the cell with food it needs

c)

To provide the cell with materials it needs

d)

To provide the cell with sunlight it needs
