Chapter 6 Worksheet (8pts)

2. Test your knowledge of organelles by completing the questions below. Use the organelles from the previous page as a word bank. Each question only has one answer, and each answer is only used once. (8pts)

Which organelle…

3. …is not a true organelle because it does not contain a membrane?

4. …is more abundant in the cells of alcoholics?

5. …is a region that contains two centrioles?

6. …helps the cell resist compression forces?

7. …is critical in the process of phagocytosis and autophagy?

8. …creates proteins that are eventually secreted from the cell?

9. …produces rRNA, which is used to synthesize ribosomes?

10. …has its own DNA, which is in its matrix?

11. …helps lock certain organelles, such as the nucleus, in a fixed place in the cell?

12. …has a double-membrane envelope that is continuous with the rough ER?

13. …helps mature proteins that it receives from the rough ER?

14. …is located in the leaves and other green organs of plants?

15. …transport goods and particles within the cell with the help of motor proteins?

16. …helps the cell resist pulling forces?

17. …detoxifies certain poisons through oxidation?

18. …is sometimes used by single-celled eukaryotes to excrete excess water?

19. Below is an image of three plant cells and their associated walls. Label the arrows with: primary cell wall, secondary cell wall, plasma membrane, and middle lamella. (4pts)

20. What is the function of the middle lamella?

Then use what you learned from it and your textbook to complete the following questions. If you cannot scan the code, put “Biology: Cell Structure” into YouTube and click on the video by Nucleus Medical Media.

21. Below is a Venn Diagram. Fill it in with differences and similarities between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. You must list at least three items in each section of the diagram.(3pts)

Eukaryotic Cells

Prokaryotic Cells

22. Fill in the Venn Diagram with differences and similarities between plant cells and animal cells. You must list at least three items in each section of the diagram. (3pts)

Animal Cells

Plant Cells

23. I’m trying to study several different specimens, but I can’t figure out what type of microscopy to use to get the results I want. Fill out the following table with the correct method to use for each organism. (3pts)

What I want to see

Type of microscopy I should use

How does this type of microscopy work?

The surface of a prokaryotic cell in great detail.

A cell of onion root up close

A cross-section of a layer of epithelial cells.

24. An organism with many smaller cells has a greater ratio of surface area to volume, making it much more efficient than an organism with a few large cells. Explain why (2pts) .
