_________________________1.
theory that states that all organisms are made of cells, all cells are produced by
other living cells and the cell is the most basic unit of life
_________________________2. jellylike substance inside cells that contains molecules and, in some cells,
organelles
_________________________3. membrane-bound structure that is specialized to perform a distinct process within
a cell
_________________________4. cell that does not have a nucleus or other membrane-bound organelles
_________________________5. cell that has a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles.
_________________________6. network of proteins, such as microtubules and microfilaments, inside a eukaryotic
cell that supports and shapes the cell
_________________________7. organelle composed of a double membrane that acts as the storehouse for most
of a cell’s DNA
_________________________8. interconnected network of thin, folded membranes that produce, process, and
distribute proteins; where proteins transport through within the cell
_________________________9. organelle that links amino acids together to form proteins; helps make proteins
_________________________10. stack of flat, membrane enclosed spaces, containing enzymes that process, sort,
and deliver proteins
_________________________11. small organelle that contains and transports materials within the cytoplasm
_________________________12. bean-shaped organelle that supplies energy to the cell and has its own ribosomes
and DNA
_________________________13. organelle that is used to store materials, such as water, food, or enzymes, that
are needed by the cell.
_________________________14. organelle that contains enzymes (that are used in digesting and breaking apart
the “trash” or “reject proteins” of the cell)
_________________________15. small-cylinder shaped organelle made of protein tubes arranged in a circle; aids
in the process of mitosis
_________________________16. rigid structure that gives protection, support, and shape to cells in plants, algae,
fungi, and bacteria
_________________________17. organelle composed of numerous membranes that are used to convert solar
energy into chemical energy; contains chlorophyll
_________________________18. infectious particle made only of a strand of either DNA or RNA surrounded by a
protein coat; not considered to be an organism (living thing)
Answer the following questions in as much detail as possible:
1. What is the difference between a eukaryotic cell and a prokaryotic cell? Give an example of each. What are the
two types of eukaryotic cells? What are their differences?
2. Write one paragraph describing the organelle of your choice. An organelle is a structure that carries out a specific
function in the cell (it’s like an organ found in your cells).
3. For the chart below, place a check in the box if the cell has that component.
Plant
Animal
Bacteria
Chloroplast
Vacuole
Ribosome
Mitochondria
DNA
Cell Membrane
Nucleus
Endoplasmic Reticulum
Cell Wall
Golgi Apparatus
Label the organelles of the animal cell diagram below using the words below:
