Middle School Life Science › Identify structure and function of organelles
What is the function of the Endoplasmic reticulum?
translating and folding new proteins
producing energy in the form of ATP
allowing for photosynthesis
contain the DNA and control activities of the cell
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
Which of these is present in plant cells but not animal cells?
chloroplasts
mitochondria
vacuole
cell membrane
Explanation
The answer is chloroplasts.

Which of the following is the function of a mitochondria?
to produce energy in the form of ATP
to package and store protein
to perform RNA transcription
allow for photosynthesis
Explanation
The answer is "to produce energy in the form of ATP."

This image shows the components of which organelle?
cell wall
vacuole
chloroplast
mitochondria
Explanation
The answer is "cell wall" because we see an image of a plant cell and the cell wall's infrastructure.
