What is the function of the Endoplasmic reticulum?

translating and folding new proteins

CORRECT

producing energy in the form of ATP

0

allowing for photosynthesis

0

contain the DNA and control activities of the cell

0

Explanation

The answer is "translating and folding new proteins"

Cell membrane:in animal cells, this separates the interior of all cells from the outside environment (the extracellular space)

Cell wall: in plant cells, gives the cell a rigid rectangular shape, helps to keep the organelles inside the cell, and does not let the cell burst due to changes in pressure.

Chloroplast: in plant cells, allows for photosynthesis, traps energy from sunlight

Endoplasmic reticulum: translation and folding of new proteins

Flagellum: Helps a cell move (not all cells have these)

Golgi apparatus: sorting, packaging, processing and modification of proteins

Mitochondrion: Produces energy in the form of ATP

Nucleus: contains DNA, controls all activities of the cell, performs RNA transcription

Vacuole: stores nutrients, transportation, helps maintain homeostasis

2

Which of these is present in plant cells but not animal cells?

chloroplasts

CORRECT

mitochondria

0

vacuole

0

cell membrane

0

Explanation

The answer is chloroplasts.

to package and store protein

0

to perform RNA transcription

0

allow for photosynthesis

This image shows the components of which organelle?

cell wall

CORRECT

vacuole

0

chloroplast

0

mitochondria

0

Explanation

The answer is "cell wall" because we see an image of a plant cell and the cell wall's infrastructure.

5

Which of these is responsible for sorting, packaging, processing, and modifying proteins in a cell?

Golgi bodies

CORRECT

Mitochondria

0

Vacuoles

0

The nucleus

0

Explanation

The answer is "Golgi bodies"
