What function do both cell membranes and cell walls perform?
Producing energy for cellular processes
Allowing water to move into and out of cells
Synthesizing genetic material
Directing the reproduction of the cell
Students view two different cells under a microscope. They record their observations in the table shown.
Based on the organelles observed, the students determine that cell 2 is a plant cell because it has an organelle that--
allows water to enter and exit the cell
contains genetic information
stores water and nutrients
produces its own food
What organelles are shared between plant and animal cells?
Chloroplast
Nucleus
Cytoplasm
Cell Wall
Plants use energy from sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to produce sugar. Which structure is found only in plant cells and helps plants capture energy from sunlight?
Vacuole
Nucleus
Chloroplast
Cell Membrane
Which table correctly describes the functions of the cell structures listed?
