  • 2. 

    The ___ is a gelatinlike material inside the cell membrane

    • Cellulose

    • Chlorophyll

    • Chromatin

    • Cytoplasm

    Correct Answer
    A. Cytoplasm
    Explanation
    Cytoplasm is the correct answer because it is a gelatinlike material that is found inside the cell membrane. It is a fluid substance that fills the cell and contains various organelles, such as the nucleus, mitochondria, and ribosomes.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    Organelles that package cellular substances for export are ___.

    • Golgi bodies

    • Lysosomes

    • Ribosomes

    • Chloroplasts

    Correct Answer
    A. Golgi bodies
    Explanation
    Golgi bodies are responsible for packaging cellular substances for export. They receive proteins and lipids from the endoplasmic reticulum and modify them, sorting and packaging them into vesicles. These vesicles are then transported to the cell membrane, where they fuse and release their contents outside the cell. Therefore, Golgi bodies are the organelles that perform this important function of packaging and exporting cellular substances.

    Correct Answer
    A. Lysosomes
    Explanation
    Lysosomes are organelles that digest food molecules and wastes inside the cells. They contain digestive enzymes that break down various substances, including proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids. Lysosomes also play a role in recycling cellular components and removing damaged organelles. They are responsible for maintaining the overall health and cleanliness of the cell by breaking down and recycling waste materials. Therefore, lysosomes are the correct answer for this question.

    Protects the plant cell

    • Cell membrane

    • Nucleus

    • Mitochondria

    • Lysosomes

    • Endoplasmic reticulum

    • Cell wall

    Correct Answer
    A. Cell wall
    Explanation
    The cell wall is a rigid layer that surrounds the plant cell, providing structural support and protection. It helps maintain the shape of the cell and protects it from external stresses and pathogens. Unlike the cell membrane, which is selectively permeable, the cell wall is permeable to water and other substances. The nucleus, mitochondria, lysosomes, and endoplasmic reticulum are all organelles within the cell that have specific functions, but they do not directly protect the plant cell like the cell wall does.

    • Cell membrane

    • Nucleus

    • Mitochondria

    • Lysosomes

    • Endoplasmic reticulum

    • Cell wall

    Correct Answer
    A. Endoplasmic reticulum
    Explanation
    The endoplasmic reticulum is responsible for moving materials around in the cell. It is a network of membranes that extends from the nucleus to the cell membrane. It is involved in protein synthesis, lipid metabolism, and the transportation of molecules within the cell. Therefore, the endoplasmic reticulum plays a crucial role in maintaining the cell's structure and function by facilitating the movement of materials.

    • Cell membrane

    • Nucleus

    • Mitochondria

    • Lysosomes

    • Endoplasmic reticulum

    • Cell wall

    Correct Answer
    A. Lysosomes
    Explanation
    Lysosomes are organelles that digest food molecules and wastes inside the cells. They contain enzymes that break down various substances, such as proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids. Lysosomes play a crucial role in recycling cellular components and removing cellular waste. They fuse with food vacuoles or damaged organelles, releasing their enzymes to break down the contents. This process allows the cell to obtain nutrients from digested materials and eliminate harmful substances. Therefore, lysosomes are responsible for maintaining the cell's internal environment and promoting its overall health and function.

    • Lysosomes

    • Endoplasmic reticulum

    • Cell wall

    Correct Answer
    A. Mitochondria
    Explanation
    Mitochondria are organelles where energy is released from food molecules through a process called cellular respiration. They are often referred to as the "powerhouses" of the cell because they produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is the main energy currency of the cell. Mitochondria have a highly folded inner membrane that allows for efficient production of ATP. This process occurs in eukaryotic cells, where mitochondria are present, and is essential for the cell's functioning and survival.

    • Endoplasmic reticulum

    • Cell wall

    Correct Answer
    A. Cell membrane
    Explanation
    The cell membrane is responsible for allowing certain materials to move into and out of the cell. It acts as a barrier, controlling the passage of substances in and out of the cell. This selective permeability allows essential molecules like nutrients and oxygen to enter the cell, while waste products and other substances are expelled. The cell membrane also plays a crucial role in maintaining the cell's internal environment and protecting it from external factors.

    • Cell membrane

    • Nucleus

    • Mitochondria

    • Lysosomes

    • Endoplasmic reticulum

    • Cell wall

    Correct Answer
    A. Nucleus
    Explanation
    The nucleus is the control center of the cell and directs all cell activities. It contains the cell's genetic material, DNA, which carries instructions for making proteins and controlling cell functions. The nucleus also regulates the cell's growth, reproduction, and metabolism. It is surrounded by a nuclear membrane that protects the DNA and separates it from the rest of the cell. The other options listed, such as the cell membrane, mitochondria, lysosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, and cell wall, all have important functions in the cell but do not directly control all cell activities like the nucleus does.
