Cells Quiz

What is the function of the cell membrane?

• Provides energy to the cell

• Regulates the temperature of the cell

• Stores genetic information

• Controls the movement of substances in and out of the cell

What is the main function of the nucleus in a cell?

• Store excess water for the cell

• Control cell activities and contain genetic material

Explain the process of photosynthesis in plant cells.

• Plants use artificial light, chlorophyll, nitrogen, and water to produce oxygen and glucose.

• Plants use sunlight, chlorophyll, carbon dioxide, and water to produce glucose and oxygen.

• Plants use sunlight, hemoglobin, oxygen, and water to produce carbon dioxide and glucose.

• Plants use moonlight, chlorophyll, carbon monoxide, and water to produce glucose and nitrogen.
