- B.
It makes everything bigger.
- C.
It takes the juice off of food.
- D.
It controls the cell's activities.

- 7.What organelle provides support for the cell?
- A.
Cytoplasm
- B.
Nucleus
- C.
Cell Membrane
- D.

- E.
Ribosomes
- 8.What is the Chloroplast's job?
- A.
It's their job to make the Nucleus stay "awake."
- B.
They create building blocks for forming proteins.
- C.
It's their job to make Chlorophyll by converting the sun's energy into food for the plant.
- 9.What does the ribosome do to help the cell?
- A.
Forms spindle fibers to separate chromosomes during cell division.
- B.
Ribosomes are the sites of protein synthesis, where RNA is translated into protein. When cells need large numbers of proteins, they must first build numerous ribosomes. They also create building blocks for forming proteins.
- C.
Contains instructions that control cell metabolism and heredity.

Instructions in DNA are copied here.
- 10.Nucleolus:
- A.
Contains nuclear contents.
- B.
Instructions in DNA are copied here.
- C.
Contains instructions that control cell metabolism and heredity.
- D.
Works with ribosomes in the synthesis of protein.

- A.
Site of cellular respiration, ie. the release of chemical energy from food.
- B.
Chromosomes are small structures that are contained in the cell's Nucleus.
- C.
Transports chemicals between cells and within cells.
- D.
Are made up of genes and protein, which contain DNA.
