Question

structure reinforcement worksheet

1. contains the cells genetic material (dna):
2. transports proteins and other materials throughout the cell (can be smooth or rough)
3. site of protein synthesis, many located on the er
4. contains enzymes that break down materials (digestion)
5. harvests energy for the cell, powerhouse of a cell
6. packages and secretes products of the cell
7. secreted by the golgi body, they carry products out of the cell
8. found in the nucleus; makes ribosomes
9. hair - like structures found on the surface of some cells
10. a long, tail - like structure used for locomotion
11. structures within the cytoplasm that support and shape cell (part of cytoskeleton)
12. fluid filled container used for storage, large in plant cells
13. carries out photosynthesis in plant cells

Explanation:

1. The nucleus contains the cell's genetic material (DNA).
2. The endoplasmic - reticulum (ER) transports proteins and other materials throughout the cell and can be smooth or rough.
3. Ribosomes are the site of protein synthesis, many are located on the ER.
4. Lysosomes contain enzymes that break down materials (digestion).
5. Mitochondria harvest energy for the cell and are called the "powerhouse of the cell".
6. The Golgi apparatus packages and secretes products of the cell.
7. Vesicles are secreted by the Golgi body and carry products out of the cell.
8. The nucleolus is found in the nucleus and makes ribosomes.
9. Cilia are hair - like structures found on the surface of some cells.
10. A flagellum is a long, tail - like structure used for locomotion.
11. Microtubules and microfilaments (part of the cytoskeleton) are structures within the cytoplasm that support and shape the cell.
12. Vacuoles are fluid - filled containers used for storage, large in plant cells.
13. Chloroplasts carry out photosynthesis in plant cells.
