Name the selectively permeable structure (i.e. controls movement of substances in and out) that envelopes the whole cell.

• Nucleus

• ER

• Cell wall

• Cell membrane

What is the function of a nucleus?

• It stores food, water, and other waste materials in the cell. They are extremely small in animal cells and large in plant cells.

• Small organelles which are the sites for protein synthesis.

• It contains the genetic information of the cell, the DNA. It sends signals to the cells to grow, mature, divide and die.

• It is called the cell’s post office as it is involved in the transportation of materials within the cell

• cytoplasm

• cell membrane

• ribosome

• mitochondria

What is the function of a cell wall?

• It is a rigid and stiff structure that provides shape, support and protection to the cells.

• It controls what goes in and out of the plant cell by diffusion process.

• It controls the amount of light that can penetrate into the plant during photosynthesis.
