4.

true or false, the mitochondria is found ONLY in animal cells.

a)

True

b)

5.

which organelle contains DNA and controls the cell ?

a)

Cell membrane

b)

nucleus

c)

nucleolus

d)

lysosme

6.

this organelle makes useable energy for the cell..

a)

chloroplast

b)

c)

ribosome

d)

nucleolus

7.

this organelle makes proteins...

a)
Cell membrane
b)
Nucleus
c)
Ribosome
d)
ER
8.

a)

rough endoplasmic reticulum

b)

smooth endoplasmic reticulum

c)

ribosome

d)

nucleus

a)
True
b)
False
10.

prokaryotes are always...

a)

Plants

b)

Animals

c)

Bacteria

d)

Eukaryotes

11.

which organelle is only found in a plant cell ?

a)
nucleus
b)
chloroplast
c)
mitochondria
d)
cell membrane
12.
storage for food, waste, and water
a)
ribosome
b)
vacuole
c)
smooth ER
d)
lysosome
13.

which organelle is multicellular ?

a)

Eukaryotes

b)

Prokaryotes

c)

Viruses

14.

based on what you just learned about the chloroplast and mitochondria, which one do you believe is more important ?

a)

Mitochondria because it actually makes the ATP (energy we can use).

b)

Chloroplast because it gets the energy from the sun (energy we can't use)

c)

Both are equally important because the chloroplast captures energy we can't use and sends it to the mitochondria to make ATP which is energy we can use.
