What is represented by the small dots found in each of the bacteria cells?

free-floating DNA

ribosomes

cell membrane

flagellum

How is the DNA described in bacterial cells?

double helix

free floating DNA

single strand of DNA

The picture of the bacteria below has a tail-like structure. What is this structure called?

cell membrane

flagellum

DNA

pili

What might be the purpose of this the flagellum (the tail-like structure)?

storing genetic information

making protein

movement

eating

Animal and plant cells are eukaryotes. Where do you find DNA in animal and plant cells?

plasma membrane

cytoplams

nucleus

cell wall

Muscle cells are importatn to motion in the body. They form muscle tissue which contracts to move substances within the body or to help the body move in the environment. Why might muscle cells have more mitochondria than other cells.

need more mitochondria because mitochondria make energy

need more mitochondria because mitochondria stores genetic information

need more mitochondria because mitochondria make proteins

need more mitochondria because mitochondria control what enter and exit the muscle cell

A student makes the following statement: "

"Plant cells don't need mitochondria. They have organelles that help them make their own food and so they do not need mitochondria"

Is this a true statement?

No

Yes

A cell from an organism has a nucleus, mitochondria, a cell wall, and chloroplast. The organism is most likely classified as which of the following?

animal

bacterium

prokaryote

plant

Each of the illustrations shows either a prokaryotic cell or a eukaryotic cell. Each cell is numbered. Which two cells should be classified as prokaryotic cells?

1 and 2

1 and 3

3 and 4

2 and 4

Cyanobacteria are organisms commonly found in streams and ponds as chains of cells. A portion of a chain of cyanobacteria cells is shown in the diagram below. The major parts of a cyanobacteria cell are labeled.

Is cyanobacteria a prokaryotic or eukaryotic cell?

prokaryotic because there is no nucleus

eukaryotic because there is a nucleus

Identify one structural characteristic of a cyanobacteria cell that is similar to a characteristic of a plant cell.

Look at the picture of the plant cell. Identify one structure that is NOT labeled in the plant cell AND describe the function of the organelle you identified.
