The nucleus controls cell activities and contains genetic
material
Animal and plant cells share all the same organelles.
False
What is the purpose of chloroplasts in plant cells?
Photosynthesis
Arrange the major organelles in animal and plant cells in order of their size from smallest to largest:
1️⃣ Mitochondria
2️⃣ Nucleus
3️⃣ Vacuole
Chloroplasts contain the pigment called
chlorophyll
What is the primary function of the cell wall in plant cells?
Structural support
Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll, which absorbs light energy for
photosynthesis
Animal and plant cells share common organelles like the nucleus, cytoplasm, cell membrane, and
mitochondria
What is the function of chloroplasts in plant cells?
Photosynthesis
Animal cells lack
chloroplasts
.
True
Match the organelle with its function:
Nucleus ↔️ Controls cell activities
Cytoplasm ↔️ Site of cellular reactions
Cell Membrane ↔️ Controls substance entry
Organelles
shared by both animal and plant cells are essential for survival.
True
Chloroplasts contain the green pigment
chlorophyll
Chloroplasts convert
carbon dioxide
and water into glucose.
True
The cell wall regulates the movement of substances in and out of the
cell
What is the primary function of chloroplasts in plant cells?
Photosynthesis
Chloroplasts are found in animal cells but not in plant cells.
False
The vacuole helps maintain cell rigidity through
turgor
pressure.
Which organelle is primarily responsible for breaking down cellular waste and damaged organelles in animal cells?
Lysosomes
Which organelles are found in both animal and plant cells?
✅ Nucleus
✅ Cytoplasm
✅ Cell Membrane
✅ Mitochondria
❌ Chloroplasts
❌ Cell Wall
What structural feature is present in plant cells but absent in animal cells?
Cell Wall
The vacuole in animal cells is small and
temporary
.
Steps in photosynthesis in chloroplasts:
1️⃣ Sunlight is captured by chlorophyll
2️⃣ Carbon dioxide and water are converted into glucose
3️⃣ Glucose is used by the plant as energy
What is the role of the cell wall in plant cells?
Structural support
Chloroplasts contain the green pigment
chlorophyll
What is the primary function of chloroplasts in plant cells?
Photosynthesis
The
cell wall
provides structural support and protection to the plant cell.
True
What is the prominent organelle in plant cells that serves multiple vital functions?
Vacuole
The vacuole helps maintain cell rigidity through
turgor
pressure.
In which type of cells are lysosomes primarily found?
Animal cells
Plant cells use vacuoles for autophagy instead of lysosomes.
True
Name three organelles shared by both animal and plant cells.
Nucleus, cytoplasm, cell membrane
Animal cells have a cell wall made of cellulose for structural support.
False
Plant cells use chloroplasts to perform
photosynthesis
.
What are the four major organelles found in both animal and plant cells?
Nucleus, cytoplasm, cell membrane, mitochondria
What is the primary function of mitochondria in cells?
Produce energy
The cell wall in plant cells is made of
cellulose
Plant cells have permanent vacuoles, while
animal cells
have temporary vacuoles.
True
Which organelle in both animal and plant cells controls cell activities and contains genetic material?
Nucleus
Match the structural difference between animal and plant cells with its function:
Cell Wall ↔️ Structural support
Chloroplasts ↔️ Photosynthesis
Large Vacuole ↔️ Storage
