Section 3: Eukaryotic Cell Structure

Eukaryotic Cell Structure

1
What organelle in plants captures light energy and converts it to chemical energy?
A)mitochondrion
B)nucleus
C)cytoskeleton
D)chloroplast
2
What is the difference between plant and animal cells?
A)None, they contain the same features.
B)Plant cells have a cell wall and chloroplasts, animal cells do not. Plant cells usually are larger and contain one large vacuole. Animal cells contain centrioles.
C)Plant cells contain a cytoskeleton and animal cells do not.
D)Animal cells contain a nucleus. Plant cells do not contain a nucleus.

B)It is damaged.
C)It is a prokaryotic cell.
D)It is an eukaryotic cell.
5
Once proteins are made, where do they go?
