Biology Unit 1 Part 2 Test Study Guide
Main Ideas of the Cell Theory
All organisms are composed of one or more cells All cells come from preexisting cells The cell is the basic unit of structure and organization of organisms
Mitochondria
Breaks down sugars to produce energy during cellular respiration
mitochondria break these down to produce ATP
Carbohydrates
chloroplasts produce these
Carboydrates
A scientist isolates a number of non-photosynthetic prokaryotes. Which structure could be found in these cells?
Cell Wall
Which pair of organelles works together to give structure and support in animal cells?
Cell membrane and cytoskeleton
The number of a particular organelle within a cell is dependent upon the function of that cell. Which of the following organelle would be found in abundance in sunflower leaf cells?
Chloroplasts
Chloroplast
Contains grana and stroma, responsible for performing photosynthesis
Nucleic Acids
Contains the "genetic code"; found in the cell's nucleus
Chief cells are found in the glands that line the inside of the stomach. These cells secrete large amounts of enzymes to aid in food digestion. Which cellular structure will be more abundant in chief cells because of their high rate of enzyme secretion?
Endoplasmic Reticulum
The main difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells is that only __________ cells have a nucleus
Eukarotic
Animal cells prefer what type of solution?
Isotonic
molecule that makes up the plasma membrane
Lipids
Flagella
Long projections used for locomotion that move in a whip-like fashion
Protein
Makes up the cytoskeleton, providing structure for cells
Plant cells have ....
Mitochondria Cell Wall Nucleus Ribosomes Cell Membrane Chloroplast Golgi Apparatus Endoplasmic Reticulum DNA
Animal cells have ....
Mitochondria Nucleus Ribosomses Cell membrane Lysosomes Golgi Apparatus Endoplasmic Reticulum DNA
Which best explains why muscle cells have more mitochondria than skin cells?
Muscle cells require more energy than skin cells.
found in the nucleus
Nucleic Acids
contain the instructions for proteins to be made
Nucleic acids
Which part of a phospholipid allows the cell membrane to interact with water in its environment?
Phosphate head, because it is polar
Carbohydrates
Produced by the chloroplast as a quick source of energy in plant cells
lysosomes contain these
Proteins
made in the rough ER
Proteins
the golgi packages these and sends them out of the cell
Proteins
Prokaryote cells have ....
Ribosomes Cell membrane Cell wall DNA
Cilia
Short, hairlike projections used for locomotion in some cells that move in a wake-like manner
Which structural feature of the cell membrane allows molecules such as oxygen and carbon dioxide to diffuse into and out of the cell?
The cell membrane is made up of two layers of phospholipids.
What will likely happen to a saltwater fish if it were put into a freshwater aquarium?
The cells in the fish would take on too much water and likely swell up.
Lipids
The main component of the cell membrane; is nonpolar
Arrange the options from least complex to most complex
The rough ER contains ribosomes needed to produce insulin, a protein The beta cells is responsible for producing insulin to help digest sugars taken in from out diet The islet of Langerhans is an area of tissue that produces insulin, a protein that helps break down sugar The pancreas is an organ that produces digestive enzymes and hormones for the body The digestive system is responsible for obtaining nutrients from the food we eat
What is the function of the membrane bound transport proteins in a cell membrane?
To help transport large molecules across the membrane that cannot diffuse through the semi-permeable membrane
A red blood cell is placed into an aqueous solution. The red blood cell has a lower concentration of protein and sugar than the aqueous solution, as shown in the diagram. In the diagram, the volume of the cell is equal to the volume outside the cell.
Water from the red blood cell will diffuse into the solution.
In which type of cells in a mouse are you most likely to find more mitochondria?
cardiac (heart)
Due to a puncture in the internal membrane of this organelle, light energy can no longer be used to split water molecules to start photosynthesis.
chloroplasts
lysosomes
contains digestive enzymes; digests old and worn out organelles
Sperm cells are produced that contain the genetic material but lack the ability to move
flagella
Secreted proteins are made but cannot be transported out of the cell.
golgi apparatus
Damaged organelles are accumulating in the cytoplasm.
lysosomes
Plasma membrane
maintains homeostasis withing a cell
Nucleus
manages functions within a eukaryotic cell
An animal sperm cell moves by a flagella whipping back and forth on one end of the cell and propelling it in the opposite direction. Due to this method of movement, which organelle would we expect to see more of in a sperm cell than in a skin cell?
mitochondria
An individual feels tired all the time.
mitochondria
Due to the blocking of electrons, this structure can no longer produce ATP to provide energy for other organelles.
mitochondria
Chlorophyll
pigment in plants that absorbs all wavelengths of light except green
Cells are producing proteins that don't function properly.
ribosomes
Small intestinal cells can't make enough digestive enzymes to keep up with digesting food.
ribosomes
Endoplasmic Reticulum
site for protein or lipid production
Nucleolus
site for ribosome production
Ribosomes
site of protein production
Cells become poisoned by alcohol build up in the cell.
smooth ER
Golgi Apparatus
sorts and transports proteins
What will likely happen to the plants on the side of a road if we use too much salt during the winter to de-ice the roads?
their cells will lose water due to osmosis and they will become plasmolysed
If you get lost on a remote island, why should you not drink the ocean water? (Water, water everywhere. Nor a a drop to drink)
your red blood cells would lose water
