Plant and Animal Cells

Front

Which statement correctly explains a difference between the cells of prokaryotes and the cells of eukaryotes? Options: a.  Eukaryotic cells reproduce using DNA; prokaryotic cells use RNA only to reproduce., a.  Eukaryotic cells do not have cell walls or vacuoles; prokaryotic cells have both of these features., a.  Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles; prokaryotic cells lack these features.

Back

Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles; prokaryotic cells lack these features.

Which of the following statements best describes the function of the lipid bilayer in the cell membrane? Options: Lipids attract water on both sides of the bilayer., Lipid-soluble material cannot pass through a lipid bilayer., Proteins can only transport uncharged particles through the lipid bilayer., Proteins distributed along the bilayer can allow water to pass through the membrane.

Back

Proteins can only transport uncharged particles through the lipid bilayer.

Front

What is the function of the Golgi apparatus within a cell?

Back

The Golgi apparatus prepares new macromolecules such as fats and lipids by sorting and encasing them before sending them to the correct destination within a cell.

Front

Which of the following statements best describes the nucleus of a cell?

Back

The nucleus has a membrane that allows for active transport of RNA and proteins.

Front

Makes proteins for the cell, can be found attached to the endoplasmic reticulum or free in the cytoplasm

Back

Ribosome

Front

Jelly-like substance found inside cell that acts as a medium for chemical reactions within the cell

Back

Cytoplasm

Front

This structure is only in plant cells. It is outside of the cell membrane and adds more support/structure to the plant.
