Front

What is the function of the cell wall in plant cells?

Back

The cell wall provides structure and protection to the plant cell, helping it maintain its shape.

Front

What organelle is responsible for energy production in cells?

Back

Mitochondria are responsible for producing energy through cellular respiration.

Front

What is the role of the nucleus in a cell?

Back

The nucleus contains the cell's genetic material and controls its growth, metabolism, and reproduction.

Front

What is the cell membrane's function?

Back

The cell membrane regulates what enters and exits the cell, maintaining homeostasis.

Front

What distinguishes unicellular organisms from multicellular organisms?

Back

Unicellular organisms consist of a single cell, while multicellular organisms are made up of multiple cells.

Front

How do mitochondria and the cell membrane work together in energy production?

Back

Mitochondria produce energy, while the cell membrane allows nutrients to enter the cell for energy production.

Front

What happens if a cell's mitochondria are damaged?

Back

The cell will struggle to produce energy efficiently, affecting its overall function.

Front

Why are cells considered the building blocks of life?

Back

Cells are the basic structural and functional units of all living organisms.

Front

What is the difference between plant and animal cells?

Back

Plant cells have a cell wall and chloroplasts, while animal cells do not.
