3.1.2 Eukaryotic Cells

• What is a eukaryotic cell?

  A cell with a true nucleus
• Eukaryotic cells contain a true nucleus where genetic material is bound within a membrane
• Human cells, plant cells, and animal cells are examples of eukaryotic cells.
• Match the cell type with its characteristics:

  Eukaryotic ↔️ True nucleus and organelles

  Prokaryotic ↔️ No nucleus or organelles
• What is the function of the nucleus in a eukaryotic cell?

  Contains and protects DNA
• The nucleus is enclosed by a double membrane
• Which organelle generates ATP in eukaryotic cells?

  Mitochondria
• Mitochondria have a double membrane with cristae to increase surface area.
• Order the stages of cellular respiration in mitochondria:

  1️⃣ Glycolysis

  2️⃣ Krebs Cycle

  3️⃣ Electron Transport Chain
• How many ATP molecules are produced in glycolysis?

  2 ATP
• The Krebs cycle takes place in the mitochondrial matrix
• What are the folds in the inner membrane of mitochondria called?

  Cristae
• The primary function of mitochondria is to generate ATP
• Stages of cellular respiration in order

  1️⃣ Glycolysis

  2️⃣ Krebs Cycle

  3️⃣ Electron Transport Chain
• Where does glycolysis take place in the cell?

  Cytoplasm
• The Krebs cycle releases carbon dioxide and produces electron carriers.
• Which electron carriers are produced during the Krebs cycle?

  NADH and FADH2
• The electron transport chain produces approximately 34 ATP molecules.
• Prokaryotic cells have a true nucleus and membrane-bound organelles.

  False
• Match the cell type with its features:

  Eukaryotic ↔️ True nucleus and organelles

  Prokaryotic ↔️ No nucleus or organelles
• What is the primary function of the nucleus in a eukaryotic cell?

  Controls cell activity
• What is the primary function of mitochondria in a eukaryotic cell?

  Generates ATP
• The endoplasmic reticulum synthesizes lipids and modifies proteins.
• Lysosomes in eukaryotic cells digest cellular waste and foreign materials.
• Which organelle in plant cells conducts photosynthesis?

  Chloroplasts
• Match the organelle with its function:

  Mitochondria ↔️ Generates ATP

  Lysosomes ↔️ Digests cellular waste

  Chloroplasts ↔️ Conducts photosynthesis

  Nucleus ↔️ Controls cell activity
• What type of organelles are found in eukaryotic cells that perform specific functions?

  Membrane-bound organelles
• The nucleus contains and protects genetic material
• Mitochondria generate ATP through cellular respiration.
• What are the two main functions of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)?

  Protein transport and lipid synthesis
• The Golgi apparatus processes and packages proteins and lipids
• Lysosomes digest cellular waste and foreign materials.
• What is the primary function of chloroplasts in plant cells?

  Conduct photosynthesis
• Match the organelle with its function:

  Nucleus ↔️ Contains and protects genetic material

  Mitochondria ↔️ Generates ATP
• Stages of cellular respiration in mitochondria

  1️⃣ Glycolysis

  2️⃣ Krebs Cycle

  3️⃣ Electron Transport Chain
• Cellular respiration generates ATP in mitochondria.
• Where does glycolysis occur in the cell?

  Cytoplasm
• The Krebs cycle releases CO2 and produces electron carriers NADH and FADH2
• The electron transport chain is located on the inner mitochondrial membrane.
• How much ATP is produced by the electron transport chain?

  ~34 ATP
