structures inside of cells have unique functions but all contribute to keeping the cell alive. these structures are called ___, and they work similarly to how ___ function to keep a whole multicellular organism alive.
organelles, organs
organs, organelles
organelles, membranes
molecules, organelles

Explanation:

Analyze Question 15

The student describes a cell with a cell wall, mitochondria, a nucleus, a vacuole, and several chloroplasts.

• The presence of a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles (mitochondria, chloroplasts, vacuole) indicates it is a eukaryotic cell, ruling out bacterium cells.
• The presence of chloroplasts (for photosynthesis) and a cell wall rules out animal cells.
• Fungus cells have cell walls but do not contain chloroplasts.
• Plant cells typically contain all of these features: a cell wall, mitochondria, a nucleus, vacuoles, and chloroplasts.

Therefore, the student is describing a plant cell.

Analyze Question 16

The prompt states: "Structures inside of cells have unique functions but all contribute to keeping the cell alive. These structures are called \_\_\_\_\_, and they work similarly to how \_\_\_\_\_ function to keep a whole multicellular organism alive."

• The specialized structures inside a cell that perform specific functions are called organelles.
• In a multicellular organism, specialized structures made of tissues that perform specific functions to keep the organism alive are called organs.
• Thus, the correct pair to fill in the blanks is "organelles, organs".

Answer:

Question 15

• animal cell
• plant cell (Correct answer)
• fungus cell
• bacterium cell

Question 16

• organelles, organs (Correct answer)
• organs, organelles
• organelles, membranes
• molecules, organelles
