Study Guide for Classification/Cell Test
1. Know how to label a plant and animal cell.
2.
What is the difference between the cell wall and the cell membrane?
The cell wall supports the cell and is flexible, yet tough. The cell wall and the cell membrane both
protect and let things in and out of the cell.
Describe the function of the following:
3.
Nucleus – directs a of the cell’s activities
4.
Cytoplasm – gel-like fluid in which the cell parts or organelles float in
5.
Mitochondria - rod-shaped organelles where most of the energy is produced.
6.
ER(endoplasmic reticulum) – carries materials from one part of the cell to another
7.
Golgi body – receives materials from the ER and sends them to other parts of the cell
8.
Vacuole – stores water, food, waste products, and other materias
9.
Lysosome – breaks down food particles and worn out cell parts
10.
Chloroplasts – capture energy from sunlight, use it to produce food and are in plant cells
11.
Ribosomes – produce proteins in the cell
12.
The cell is the basic unit of structure and function in living things.
13.
What are two plant cell parts that are not found in the animal cell? Chloroplasts and cell wall

Why is a computer not alive? It doesn’t have DNA and can’t reproduce.
18.
Why do scientists classify organisms? Scientists use scientific names for organisms to be clear and
precise when they refer to a living thing.

23.
Slime mold is a type of protist.
24.
The kingdom Plantae consists of organisms that are eukaryotic, have cell walls, and make food
through photosythesis.
