    What happens in the chloroplast of a plant cell?    - ProProfs

    What happens in the chloroplast of a plant cell?   

    • Photosynthesis

    • Shake and bake baby

    • Nothing

    • Evaporation

    Correct Answer
    A. Photosynthesis
    Explanation
    Chloroplasts are filled with green chlorophyll. It is here that photosynthesis occurs.

    Animal and plant cells BOTH have mitochondria.  What do mitochondria do?   - ProProfs

    Animal and plant cells BOTH have mitochondria.  What do mitochondria do?  

    • They contain the cells DNA

    • They store food water and waste

    • They pump blood in the cell

    • They change food, water, and oxygen into energy

    Correct Answer
    A. They change food, water, and oxygen into energy
    Explanation
    Mitochondria are the "powerhouses" of cells. It is energy to keep the cell alive is produced from nutrients, water, and oxygen.

    Although cells have the same basic parts, they can look very different and perform different functions.  After watching  the BrainPop video on cells, what types of cells are these?  - ProProfs

    Although cells have the same basic parts, they can look very different and perform different functions.  After watching  the BrainPop video on cells, what types of cells are these? 

    • The top is a red blood cell, the bottom is a nerve cell

    • The top is a white blood cell, the bottom is a nerve cell the top is a nerve cell, the bottom is a red blood cell

    • Neither, the top is a piece of candy, the bottom is a type of worm

    • They are both skin cells

    Correct Answer
    A. The top is a red blood cell, the bottom is a nerve cell
    Explanation
    This is an important question. Cells have the same basic parts BUT can LOOK different and perform different functions. The cells on top are red blood cells which transfer food, water, and nutrients to cells and carry waste away. The cell on the bottom is a nerve cell that transmits senses.

    Every in an animal or plant cell has DNA.  Where is the DNA of a cell located?  - ProProfs

    Every in an animal or plant cell has DNA.  Where is the DNA of a cell located? 

    • In the mitochondria

    • In the ribosomes

    • In the nucleus

    • No specific organelle, DNA just floats around in the cytoplasm

    Correct Answer
    A. In the nucleus
    Explanation
    DNA is located in the nucleus.

    Which one do you like? - ProProfs

    Which one do you like?

    • They contain the cells DNA

    • They store food, water and waste

    • They pump blood in the cell

    • They change food, water, and oxygen into energy

    Correct Answer
    A. They store food, water and waste
    Explanation
    Vacuoles store food, water, and waste for later use or elimination.

    Unlike molecules, you can see most cells with a microscope. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Cells are MUCH larger than molecules. Cells are probably made of MILLIONS of molecules. You can NOT see molecules with a microscope, but you CAN see cells. I believe that I read somewhere that you can actually see the nerve cell of a giraffes neck WITHOUT a microscope.

    Functions of the Cell Membrane: Protects the cell by acting as a barrier. regulates the transport of substances in and out of the cell. receives chemical messengers from other cell. acts as a receptor. cell mobility, secretions, and absorptions of substances. What are 2 functions of the Cell Membrane? - ProProfs

    Functions of the Cell Membrane:
    • Protects the cell by acting as a barrier.
    • regulates the transport of substances in and out of the cell.
    • receives chemical messengers from other cell.
    • acts as a receptor.
    • cell mobility, secretions, and absorptions of substances.
    What are 2 functions of the Cell Membrane?

    • Protects the cell by acting as a barrier.

    • Regulates (controls) what substances can go in and out of the cell.

    • To store the DNA of a cell

    • To produce energy

    • To store water and waste

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Protects the cell by acting as a barrier.
    A. Regulates (controls) what substances can go in and out of the cell.
    Explanation
    Cell membranes touch blood. When blood passes by, food, water, and nutrients move through the cell membrane INTO the cell and waste moves out of the cell and back into the blood.

    • Vacuoles

    • Golgi complexes

    • Chloroplasts

    • Endoplasmic reticulum

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Cell wall
    A. Chloroplasts
    Explanation

    The bone cells of these two creatures are basically the same.  - ProProfs

    The bone cells of these two creatures are basically the same. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Except for the reproductive cells made in the ovaries and testicles, cells in males and females are the same. A woman, for example could receive a blood transfusion from a man and vice versa. The heart is made up of cells and could be transplanted from a man to a woman.

    Which of the following parts of a plant cell performs a function similar to a skeleton in an animal?  - ProProfs

    Which of the following parts of a plant cell performs a function similar to a skeleton in an animal? 

    • Cell wall

    • Cell membrane

    • Chloroplast

    • Nucleus

    Correct Answer
    A. Cell wall
    Explanation
    A skeleton of an animal and the cell walls of plant cell (when joined together) help support the organism.
