1. 3.) I use energy from sunlight to make energy-rich food. What am I?
Monday, 9/25/17
Objective: Identify the cellular organelles associated with major cell processes.
Please answer these questions in your notebook, then turn in your Cell Organelle Flip Book:
1.) I am a small particle of RNA and protein that produces protein based on the code contained in the DNA. What am I?
2.) I am filled with enzymes used to break down food into particles. I can also get rid of old organelles and kill bacteria. What am I?
3.) I use energy from sunlight to make energy-rich food. What am I?
Today: Practice FRQs and discussion/review
Homework: 1.) Cell Organelle quiz on Wed./Thurs.
2.) Print and READ the TWO articles under “Class Assignments (Chapter 4)” related to mitochondrial disorders. You will need
these on WEDNESDAY/THURSDAY

2. Word of the day Oceanicity (noun)
The degree to which the climate of a place is influenced by the sea.

3. FRq #1, Part A A. Nucleolus B. Nucleus C. Nuclear Membrane/Envelope
D. Rough ER
E. Smooth ER
F. Central Vacuole
G. Cell Membrane
H. Cell Wall
I. Chloroplast
J. Mitochondria
K. Cytoplasm
L. Golgi Apparatus
M. Ribosome

4. FRQ #1, part B
Is this an animal or a plant cell? How can you tell? (Be specific. Tell me all the structures that would allow for this differentiation).
Plant cell. It contains a large central vacuole, a cell wall, and chloroplasts.

5. FRQ #1, Part C Function 1.) Where ribosomes are made
2.) Site of protein synthesis (specifically, these organelles consist of 2 subunits)
3.) Contains the hereditary information
4.) Storage of water, undigested food, and/or waste
5.) Provides support and structure for this cell
6.) Site of cellular respiration
7.) Receives, ships, and modifies proteins
8.) Controls what enters and exits the cell A M B F H J L G

6. FRQ #2 Cell membrane Nucleus No nucleus More complex Cytoplasm
Less complex
Membrane-bound organelles
No membrane-bound organelles
Ribosomes
Linear DNA
Circular DNA
Eukaryotic
Prokaryotic

7. FRQ #3
You are a forensic scientist and have found a sample of cells at a crime scene. What criteria might you use to determine if the cells are from prokaryotes, plants, or animals?
Examine the cells under a microscope. If they lack a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles, they are prokaryotic; if they contain a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles, they are eukaryotic. A eukaryotic cell with a cell wall, central vacuole, and chloroplasts would be a plant cell. A eukaryotic cell without those three components would indicate that it is an animal cell.
