Cell Structure

I got these questions off out practice quiz (BIO111, Topic 4, Cell Structures (Ch. 4) Practice Quiz)

I figured if I can take the practice quiz why cant I post it in my blog too!!! :)


Q ... 1. Grana, thylakoids, and stroma are all componets found in.
A... Chloroplast     (I got this one right)   :)

Q... 2. All of the following are part of a prokaryotic cell except.
A... an endoplasmic reticulum                    (I got this one right) :))

Q... 3. Which sturcutres carry out cell movement?
A... Microtubules and microfilaments     (I got this one right)  :)

Q... 4. A cell has the following molecules and strucutres: enzymes, DNA, ribosomes, plasma membrane, and mitochondria. It could be a cell from
A... A plant or an animal      (I got this one wrong) :(

Q... 5. Which organelle makes protines using coded instructions that come from the nucleus?
A...  Ribosome   (I got this one right) :)

Q... 6. Eukaryotes usually contain
A... a nucleus...genetic material... and specialized organelles.   ( I got this one right) :)

Q... 7. Which of the following are capable of convering light energy to chemical energy?
A... Chloroplasts (I got this one right ) :)

Q... 8. Which organelle converts the chemical energy stored in food into compounds that are more convienent for the cell to use, such as ATP?
A... Mitochondrion ( I got this right )

Q... 9. Which structure is the site of the synthesis of proteins that may be exported from the cell?
A... Through ER   ( I got this one wrong but I knew I made a mistake ) :(

Q... 10. Which cell structure contains the cells genteic material and controls many of the cells activities?
A... Nucleus ( I got this one wrong)

Defnitions of  the answers above ^^^ I only defined specific words I was confused on...
 I got these from (Dictionary.com)

- Chloroplast is a plastid containing chlorophyll.
-Endoplasmic Reticulum is simply a network.
-Microtubules are hollow cylinderical structures in the cytoplasm of most cells, involves shape and transport.
-Ribosome is a small organelle occurring in great numbers in the cell cytoplasm... Functioning as the site of protein manufacture.


Most of this I covered before this class. When I covered it the first time I really enjoyed it... This time I was kind of board because I knew most of it... This pre test was a good review and gave me a good idea for my post on research ... Check it out!!!
