A Level Eukaryote cell organelles

Front

What am I? mRNA leaves through me (I am a small hole/gap) on its way to the ribosome? Options: nucleus, nuclear pore, nucleolus, ribosome

Back

nuclear pore

Front

What acts as a control centre for the cell by producing mRNA and controlling protein synthesis?

Back

Nucleus

Front

What am I? I have ribosomes on my outer surfaces of my membrane. I provide a large surface area for the synthesis of proteins and glycoproteins.

Back

rER

Front

What am I? I lack ribosomes on my surface and I synthesise and store lipids.

Back

sER

Front

What am I? I come in two varieties. 70S and 80S. I am made of two subunits - one large and one small. I contain ribosomal RNA and protein. I am the site of protein synthesis in eukaryote cells.

Back

80S Ribosomes

Front

What am I? I am formed when a vesicle is pinched off from the Golgi apparatus. I contain enzymes such as proteases and lipases. These enzymes can hydrolyse cell walls.

Back

Lysosome

Front

What am I? I package and process new lipids and proteins which have been made in the endoplasmic reticulum.

Back

Golgi apparatus

Front

What am I? I have a double membrane. I am sausage shaped. I am the site of aerobic respiration.

Back

Mitochondria

Front

All living things are made of...

Back

cells

Where is the DNA found in a prokaryotic cell?

Back

floating around in the cytoplasm
