Test Your Knowledge About Cellular Organelles And Cell Transport! Trivia Quiz

The number 9 shows where the mitochondria is located. The mitochondria is an organelle found in most eukaryotic cells and is responsible for producing energy in the form of ATP through cellular respiration. It is often referred to as the "powerhouse" of the cell.

The letter G in the image is depicting a vacuole. A vacuole is a membrane-bound organelle found in the cells of plants and some other organisms. It is responsible for storing water, nutrients, and waste products. In the image, the structure labeled as G resembles a large, fluid-filled sac, which is characteristic of vacuoles. The other options, such as nucleus, chloroplasts, and cell wall, do not match the structure labeled as G in the image.

The ribosome is the site of protein synthesis.

The concentration of solutes inside the cell is equal to the solute concentration of the solution outside the cell. The cell would remain the same size because the flow of water in will equal the flow of water out.

"Hydro-" means water; "-phobic" translates to the fear of

Option 5 is the correct answer because it refers to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) which is responsible for protein synthesis. The ER is a network of membranes that is involved in the production, folding, and transport of proteins. It contains ribosomes, which are responsible for translating the genetic code into proteins. Therefore, option 5 accurately identifies the part of the ER that contains ribosomes and makes proteins.

This cell does not contain a nucleus; but rather depicts a prokaryotic cell. The only answer choice that is a prokaryotic cell is bacteria.

The letter N in the image is pointing to the Golgi Apparatus.

Hypotonic means that the cell will gain water as the water tries to equalize.

The orange item in the picture surrounding the cell labeled 'J' is functioning to protect the cell. It acts as a barrier or shield, preventing any external damage or harm from reaching the cell. This protection is crucial for the cell's survival and proper functioning.

The cell is forming a membrane around the object and making it 'exit' the cell.

The letter 'D' is pointing to the nuclear membrane. The nuclear membrane is a double membrane that surrounds the nucleus of a cell and separates it from the rest of the cell. It acts as a barrier, controlling the movement of substances in and out of the nucleus.

The item labeled '2' is responsible for protecting and holding the DNA. This suggests that it is likely a structure or organelle within the cell that provides support and protection to the genetic material. It is not involved in making ribosomes, helping the animal cell nucleus divide, or making proteins.

Although prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells can both have a cell wall, eukaryotic cells do not always have a cell wall. For example, an animal cell is an example of a eukaryotic cell that lacks a cell wall.

cell > tissue > organ > organ system

Lysosomes use their digestive enzymes to break things down.

The smooth endoplasmic reticulum is responsible for making and storing lipids.

The proteins are not being made, the ribosome makes the protein, therefore the chemical inhibits the ribosome from working correctly.

A nucleus is a defining characteristic of eukaryotic cells. While prokaryotic cells do contain DNA it is not confined to one specific, membrane-enclosed region.

The phospholipid bilayer is the semipermeable membrane that keeps the cell's contents separated from the environment. It allows small molecules like water and carbon dioxide to easily pass, but keeps larger molecules like glucose and amino acids from easily passing.

The golgi's job is to ship those proteins where they need to go, so the chemical is acting on the golgi.

The phospholipid is the phosphate head and the lipid tail.

The mitochondria can be found in both the plant and the animal cell. However, the chloroplast, cell wall, and a large vacuole can only be found in the plant cell.

The solute concentration inside the cell is less than the solute concentration outside the cell. The solution is therefore considered to be hypertonic and will cause the cell to shrink.

Diffusion, osmosis and facilitated diffusion are all examples of passive transport. Endocytosis is the only process listed that requires energy.

The nucleolus is the dense region within the nucleus that is responsible for making ribosomes.

Active transport is concerned with the movement of materials from lower concentration to higher concentrations. This process requires energy and is independent of water transport.

The concentration of dissolved solutes is greater inside the cell than outside the cell. In this situation, the solution would by hypotonic and the cell would swell.

This is facilitated diffusion because the glucose is going from an area of high concentration to low concentration and is moving through a transport protein. This is not a protein pump because it is moving from high to low and it is not using energy.

more salts in the solution means that the cell is in a hypertonic solution

The fatty acid tails are hydrophobic, meaning they are water-repelling.

The cell is in a hypotonic solution, therefore the cell will swell with water as water tries to equalize. This process is known as osmosis

Prokaryotes do not have any organelles
