Name: Class: Date: Cell Test
Indicate whether the statement is true or false.
1. Photosynthesis uses carbon dioxide, water and energy from the sun to make food for the plant.
a. True
b. False
2. The cell theory is the result of the hypothesis and observation of one person.
a. True
b. False
3. Since a muscle cell uses more energy, it will have more mitochondria.
a. True
b. False
4. Glucose and oxygen are reactants (ingredients) that go into the process of photosynthesis. The chloroplast uses those
ingredients to make water and carbon dioxide.
a. True
b. False
5. The cell membranes main job is to let in substances such as oxygen and glucose (food) that the cells needs and let
out waste products such as carbon dioxide.
a. True
b. False
6. Respiration occurs in the mitochondria, oxygen is used to rip open a sugar molecule to get energy for the cell.
a. True
b. False
7. Chromosomes are sometimes called the blue print of life, due to the fact that they are made up of DNA molecules,
which hold all the information on an organism.
a. True
b. False
8. The cell theory states that all cells come from cells that already exist.
a. True
b. False
9. The lysosome organelle is sometimes called the "suicide sac" due to the fact that they will rip open and release the
strong acids that will destroy the damaged cell, hopefully saving the organism from diseases such as cancer.
a. True
b. False
10. Both plants and animals are made up of cells.
a. True
b. False
