11) 2 points Which organelle is like the stomach because it stores food and water getting it ready for digestion? ANSWER - vacuole

12) 2 points What is another name for genetic material? (think capital letters)

12) 2 points What is another name for genetic material? (think capital letters) ANSWER - DNA

13) 3 points What is the function of the cell wall?

13) 3 points What is the function of the cell wall? ANSWER – the cell wall provides structure and support for plant cells.

14) 3 points What 2 organs is the cell membrane similar to in terms of its function?

14) 3 points What 2 organs is the cell membrane similar to in terms of its function? ANSWER – lungs, skin

15) 4 points Why are organisms considered more complex than cells?

15) 4 points Why are organisms considered more complex than cells? ANSWER – Though cells are complex, they make up tissues, which make up organs, which make up organ systems, which make the organism as a whole. So all the parts have to work together for the organism to survive.

16) 3 points Identify 3 organelles found in plant cells, but not in animal cells.

16) 3 points Identify 3 organelles found in plant cells, but not in animal cells. ANSWER – chloroplast, cell wall, large central vacuole, chlorophyll

17) 2 points Why are mitochondria nicknamed “mighty” mitochondria?

17) 2 points Why are mitochondria nicknamed “mighty” mitochondria? ANSWER – Mitochondria are responsible for providing energy to the cell.

18) 4 points What is the difference between the nucleus and the nucleolus?

18) 4 points What is the difference between the nucleus and the nucleolus? ANSWER – The nucleus controls all cellular function because it contains the cell’s DNA, whereas the nucleolus is responsible for making ribosomes.

19) 5 points How was the cell theory created?

19) 5 points How was the cell theory created? ANSWER – Cell theory was created by many scientists over many years.

20) 3 points Who discovered/came up with the term “cells” when viewing them under a simple microscope.

20) 3 points Who discovered/came up with the term “cells” when viewing them under a simple microscope. ANSWER – Robert Hooke

21) 4 points What would happen if the cell membrane disappeared?

21) 4 points What would happen if the cell membrane disappeared? ANSWER – Anything could enter or exit the cell and the cell would be destroyed.

22) 4 points What would happen to the cell if the membrane covering the lysosomes went away?

22) 4 points What would happen to the cell if the membrane covering the lysosomes went away? ANSWER – The digestive enzymes in the lysosomes would get out into the cell and begin destroying it from the inside out.
