Naomi was looking at cells with a microscope. She knows the cells are classified as either plant cells or animal cells. How can she tell if these cells are plant cells?
She should look for a large nucleus in the center of the cells.
She should look for cytoplasm that is filled with organelles.
She should look for a cell membrane surrounding the entire cell.
She should look for a cell wall outside of the cell membrane.

Cell membrane
Mitochondria
Chloroplast
Nucleus

Kevin writes a report to compare and contrast the cells of plants and animals. Which of the following statements is accurate and belongs in Kevin's report?
The cell membrane of animals is much thicker than those in plants.
Vacuoles in plants are much larger than those in animals.
Animal cells do not have chromosomes.
Plant cells do not have chloroplasts.
Some organelles are present in both plant and animal cells. Each organelle performs a different function. Which of the functions listed below are performed by organelles found in both plants and animals?
Convert solar energy into chemical energy; store DNA; provide a rigid outer membrane that gives the cell support.
Support the cell from the inside; provide a rigid outer membrane that gives the cell support; break down chemical energy.
Break down chemical energy; store DNA; provide a permeable barrier for the cell.
Provide a liquid medium that protects and sustains other organelles; support the cell from the inside; convert solar energy into chemical energy.
The number of mitochondria in a cell depends on the needs of the cell. A cell that needs a lot of energy will have an inreased number of mitochondria in comparison to a cell that uses less energy. Given this information, what type of cell would likely have the most mitochondria?
Skin cells
Fat cells
Bone cells
Muscle cells

Both have a large vacuole to store water.
Both use mitochondria to produce energy.
Both use chloroplasts to store energy.
