PARTS OF THE PLANTS
False
A chloroplast consist of solely of a football shaped container of chlorophyll.
nucleolus
A concentration of the nucleic acid RNA, which is important in carrying chemical messages to other bodies in the cytoplasm.
cell wall
A feature of plants that gives shape and texture and provides support.
endoplasmic reticulum
A system of membranes that appears to be a factory for life processes and a cell communication system for chemical messages.
product of decomposition of food molecules, chemical associated with mitochondria, and a form of chemical energy
ATP is a :
simple cell
Although the following term is actually obsolete and somewhat misleading, the cell may still be referred to as a _______________.
DNA
Chemical messages originate from:
the chemical structure of genes which control inheritance
DNA
Golgi bodies
Flattened membrane sacs and tubes that are believed to be centers for collecting and packaging cell structures and enzymes.
chloroplast
Green, football-shaped plastids that carry out the life-support system of photosynthesis.
genes
Inherited physical traits are directly related to:
chromosomes
Major segments of DNA during cell division.
a chemical important in taking blueprint messages for DNA
RNA
False
Ribosomes are made of RNA.
mitochondria
Rod-shaped structures scattered throughout the cytoplasm that are involved with energy release.
produced by chloroplasts
The basic food produced by a plant is:
nucleus
The cell headquarters and inheritance; controls and orders the activities of the cell.
False
The construction of the cell walls of all plants is similar.
is constant
The number of chromosomes within each species of a plant or animal:
cytoplasm
The organic material between the membrane and nucleus, which contains a variety of tiny bodies, or organelles.
the large internal surface area
The total energy production of a mitochondrion is enhanced by:
ribonucleic acid
The transfer of information from the nucleus to organelles is accomplished by:
to collect and package cell building materials and enzymes and secrete and store high-energy conpounds
The two main functions of the Golgi body are _____________.
because it consists of numerous interdependent subunits and because codes information cannot arise from random processes
Why is a cell analogous to an engineered watch?
the cell powerhouse
mitochondria
a smaller, darker body found in the nucleus
nucleolus
important in protein synthesis
ribosome
