The three most important DIFFERENCES between plant and animal cells are that plant cells ____________.
Have cell walls. chlorophyll, and a large, central vacuole
What does a pseudopod do?
It helps the organism move.
When many organ systems work together, they can form a(n)
Organism
Based on the diagrams, which organism(s) are eukaryotic and why?
Organisms 1 and 2 only, because both have a nucleus.
A group of tissues that perform a similar function is called _________. (Examples include the hear, lungs or stomach).
Organs
Tina observed a cell under a microscope. She concluded that it was a plant cell instead of an animal cell. Which structure helped her come to this conclusion?
She saw a chloroplast, which animal cells lack.
How does the cell wall of a plant cell compare to the plasma membrane of an animal cell?
The cell wall provides structure and support; the plasma membrane controls the substances that enter and leave the cell.
Based on the diagram, what type of organism is the euglena and why?
The euglena is eukaryotic, because it has a nucleus
Which of the following statements best describes the organism?
The organism is eukaryotic, because it has membrane-bound organelles.
Which of the following best describes the organism seen below?
The organism is prokaryotic, because it does not contain membrane-bound organelles.
Which of the following statements describes how the prokaryotic cells appear compared to the eukaryotic cells?
The prokaryotic cells are much smaller than the eukaryotic cells
What is the purpose of mitochondria in both plant and animal cells?
They act as the cell's "powerhouse" to create energy
Describe the location of the organelles in eukaryotic cells

A common characteristic of all living things is that they
are made of cells.
Which of the following allows materials to enter and leave a cell?
cell membrane
Which structures are common to both plant and animal cells?

Which of these structures in a plant cell allows a plant to make food?
chloroplast
Which of the following is a correct list of structures found in both plant AND animal cells?
mitochondria, vacuole, nucleus, cell membrane, cytoplasm

mitochondrion
Which two organisms contain chloroplasts and eyespots?
volvox and euglena
