what is one difference between animal and plant cells?

animal cells require food for energy while plant cells require sunlight.

what is the difference between lysosomes and peroxisomes?

lysosomes digest while peroxisomes detoxify

what does the mitochondria do?

generates ATP (energy) for the cell

what is an important aspect of the plasma membrane?

it's semipermeable -- lets some things into the cell but not others.

what does the golgi do?

2
true or false: prokaryotes have membrane enclosed organelles
True
False
3

True
8
what does the mitochondria do?
generates ATP (energy) for the cell
digests extra cell parts
detoxifies toxic materials in the cell
contains the cell's genetic code
9
what is an important aspect of the plasma membrane?
it's semipermeable -- lets some things into the cell but not others.
only certain types of cells have a plasma membrane.
it has three layers to protect the cell from the outside environment.
it makes energy for the cell.
10
true or false: chloroplasts are present in all cells
False
True
11
what does the golgi do?
breaks down extra cell parts
packaging, sorting, and modifying proteins
makes proteins for the cell
detoxifies toxic materials for the cell
12
what do ribosomes do?
package and transport proteins
duplicate DNA
copy genetic material from DNA
make proteins!

14
what is the difference between the rough and smooth ER?
rough ER contains chlorophyll a while the smooth ER contains chlorophyll b
smooth ER copies DNA while the rough ER synthesizes them into proteins
rough ER hosts ribosomes while the smooth ER performs metabolic processes
rough ER stores food while the smooth ER stores water
