Questions and Answers

Match each cell organelle with its primary function:

Cell Nucleus = Contains and protects the DNA Nucleolus = Produces ribosomes Ribosomes = Translates mRNA into a polypeptide chain Endoplasmic Reticulum = Traps mRNA when it escapes from the nucleus

Match the following cell structures with their roles:

Golgi Apparatus = Activates newly made proteins Cytoplasm = Fluid that serves as a medium for most chemical reactions Cytoplasmic membrane = Separates inside the cell from outside Vacuole = Serves as a container

Match each organelle with its specific feature:

Mitochondria = Produces most of cell's ATPs Lysosome = Contains digestive enzymes to break down particles Centrioles = Governs cell division process Nucleolus = Produces ribosomes

Study Notes

Cell Nucleus

  • Houses and safeguards the cell’s DNA

Nucleolus

  • Responsible for creating ribosomes

Ribosomes

  • Translate mRNA into a polypeptide chain

Endoplasmic Reticulum

  • Captures mRNA that escapes the nucleus

Golgi Apparatus

  • Activates and prepares newly synthesized proteins for use

Cytoplasm

  • A fluid medium in which most chemical reactions take place

Cytoplasmic Membrane

  • Separates the cell's interior from its exterior

Vacuole

  • Serves as a storage container within the cell

Mitochondria

  • Generates the majority of the cell’s ATP

Lysosome

  • Contains digestive enzymes for breaking down cellular components

Centrioles

  • Play a crucial role in governing the cell division process
