7)What is the purpose of the eyespot?

TO DETECT LIGHT

8)What is the purpose of the contractile vacuole? TO PUMP OUT EXCESS (EXTRA) WATER

Review the following information related to plant and animal cells.

9)Which organelles and other structures are only found in plant cells? CELL WALL, CHLOROPLASTS

10)Which organelles and other structures are only found in animal cells? CENTRIOLES

Label the following cells.

11)This is a/an ANIMAL cell.

12)This is a/an PLANT cell.

13)What is binary fission? A TYPE OF SEXUAL REPRODUCTION IN WHICH ONE PARENT CELL SPLITS IN HALF AND PRODUCES TWO NEW DAUGHTER CELLS WITH IDENTICAL DNA

14)Why do cells need to make more cells?

TO MAKE REPAIRS, TO GROW, TO REPRODUCE (ELABORATE MORE ON THE TEST)

15)What are the 8 characteristics of living things?

1)ALL LIVING THINGS ARE MADE OF CELLS

2)REQUIRES WATER AND A SOURCE OF ENERGY

3)REPRODUCE

4)GROW OLD AND DIE

5)RESPOND TO THEIR SURROUNDINGS

6)MOVE

7)MAKE REPAIRS TO THEMSELVES

8)MADE OF THE SAME BASIC CHEMICAL SUBSTANCES

16)What are the three parts of the cell theory?

1)CELLS ARE THE BASIC UNIT OF LIFE

2)LIVING THINGS ARE MADE OUT OF CELLS

3)ALL CELLS COME FROM PREEXISTING CELLS

17)Arrange in correct order from the most basic unit to the most complex (organism, cells, tissues, organ systems, organs). CELLS TISSUESORGANSORGAN SYSTEMSORGANISMS

Fill in the following table.

ORGANELLE / PLANT OR ANIMAL CELL OR BOTH? / THINK OF A “NICKNAME” / FUNCTION
Cell membrane / BOTH / CONTROLS WHAT ENTERS/LEAVES THE CELL
Cell wall / PLANT / PROVIDES AND MAINTAINS THE SHAPE OF THE CELL AND SERVES AS A PROTECTIVE BARRIER.
Nucleus / BOTH / PROTECTIVE CONTAINER FOR CELL’S DNA; CONTROLS CELLULAR ACTIVITIES
Nucleolus / BOTH / MAKES RIBOSOMES
Mitochondria / BOTH / CONVERTS GLUCOSE TO ATP (ENERGY)
Ribosomes / BOTH / MAKES PROTEINS
Rough endoplasmic reticulum / BOTH / HELPS FOLD OR MODIFY PROTEINS
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum / BOTH / PUTS TOGETHER LIPIDS
Golgi apparatus / BOTH / RECEIVES PRODUCTS FROM THE ER AND ADDS FINAL MODIFICATIONS; ALSO SORTS AND SENDS TO FINAL DESTINATION.
Lysosomes / BOTH / BREAKS DOWN LARGE MOLECULES AND OLD CELL PARTS TO BE RECYCLED.
Chloroplasts / PLANT / USES THE ENERGY FROM SUNLIGHT TO FORM GLUCOSE MOLECULES (AN ENERGY STORAGE MOLECULE)
Centrioles / ANIMAL / HELPS COORDINATE CELL DIVISION
Microtubules / BOTH / LONG TUBES THAT PROVIDE THE CELL’S INTERNAL STRUCTURE AND ALLOW CELL MOVEMENT
Vacuole / BOTH / STORES WATER, FOOD, ETC.
Vesicle / BOTH / MOVING MATERIAL AROUND CELL; STORAGE
