Unit 3

They all have a cell membrane and contain DNA at some point in their lives.

They all have a nucleus and mitochondria.

They all have a cell wall and chloroplasts.

They all are multicellular and have ribosomes.

Eukaryotic cells contain a nucleus.

Prokaryotic cells have membrane-bound organelles.

Prokaryotic cells do not contain a nucleus.

Eukaryotic cells have genetic material separated from the rest of the cell.

Nucleus and cytoplasm

Cell wall and membrane

Mitochondria and ribosomes

Chloroplast and vacuole

Nucleus

Cytoplasm

Mitochondria

Cell membrane

Stores DNA

Controls cell activities

Produces energy

Sends instructions to the cell

To store genetic information by binding DNA to proteins

To assemble ribosomes

To transport proteins throughout the cell

To produce energy for the cell

They contain genetic information passed from one generation to the next

They are visible under a microscope when the cell divides

They are responsible for assembling ribosomes

They are made of DNA bound to protein

To transport proteins and other materials

To store genetic information

To produce energy

To assemble ribosomes

Because of the ribosomes found on its surface

Because it is chemically modified

Because it produces lipids

Because it is found only in animal cells

To form membrane lipids and detoxify drugs

To synthesize proteins

To store genetic information

To produce energy

It modifies, sorts, and packages proteins from the ER.

It is responsible for producing ribosomes.

It acts like the shipping department of a factory.

It stores genetic material.

To their final destination inside or outside the cell

Back to the nucleus

To the mitochondria only

To the lysosome only

All living things are composed of cells.

Cells are the basic units of structure and function in living things.

New cells are produced from existing cells.

Cells can exist independently of living things.
