    This document provides information about cell structures and organelles. It discusses the two main types of cells - prokaryotes and eukaryotes - and provides examples of each. Similarities between the cell types include being living, having DNA, cytoplasm, and a cell membrane. Differences are that prokaryotes are smaller and lack organelles and a nucleus, while eukaryotes are larger and more complex with organelles and a nucleus. The document also compares plant and animal cells, noting that plant cells have chloroplasts, a cell wall, and larger vacuoles. It identifies the functions of various cell structures and organelles through matching and riddles.

    Cell Structures Study Guide

    1. The two types of cells are _prokaryote_____ and _eukaryote_____.

    2. List 2 examples of each type of cell. Prokaryote = bacteria and archaebacterial

    Eukaryote = protists, fungi, plants, animals

    3. List 3 similarities between the 2 types of cells. Similarities = all living, all cells, all have

    DNA, cytoplasm & cell membrane, all grow, develop reproduce, all need resources

    4. List 3 differences between the 2 types of cells. Prokaryotes = only bacteria, smaller, less

    complex, less organelles, no nucleus. Eukaryotes = all other cells, larger, more complex, more

    organelles, have a nucleus

    5. How are plants cells different from animal cells? List at least 3 ways. Plants cells have a

    rectangular shape, have chloroplast for photosynthesis (make their own food), have a larger

    vacuole, are green due to chlorophyll (pigment that absorbs sunlight), have a cell wall for

    extra support

    6. Match the following cell structures with the correct functions.

    1. __L____ vacuole A. produces energy for cell functions


    2. __E___ chloroplast B. a living thing
    3. __J___ cell membrane C. chemical instructions/directions for cell structure and
    function
    4. __G___ nucleus D. a part of a cell that has a specific job to do
    5. __A__ mitochondria E. the organelle in which plants produce food
    6. __C___ DNA F. the smallest unit of life
    7. __M___ cell wall G. control center of the cell
    8. __K___ eukaryote H. a cell without a nucleus
    9. __N___ lysosome I. gel-like liquid that surrounds and protects structures in the
    nucleus
    10. __D___ organelle J. flexible cover surrounding cell, has pores
    11. __I___ cytoplasm K. a cell with a nucleus and many other organelles, very complex
    12. __F___ cell L. storage area in plant/animal cells for food/water, larger in
    plant cells
    13. __H___ prokaryote M. rigid extra boundary around plant cells, provides support and
    protection
    14. __B__ organism N. digest wastes and worn out cell parts
    Riddle Me This – Write the name of the organelle in the blank.

    1. I’m a real “powerhouse”, 6. Found only in plant cells.


    That’s plain to see. I’m green as can be.
    I break down food I make food for the plant
    To release energy. Using the sun’s energy.
    Who am I? _mitochondria_______ Who am I? __chloroplast______

    2. I’m strong and stout, 7. I’m full of holes,


    Getting through me is tough. Flexible, and thin.
    I’m found only in plants, I control what gets out
    But I guess that’s enough. As well as what comes in.
    Who am I? __cell wall_________ Who am I? __cell membrane____

    3. I’ve been called a “storage tank” 8. Proteins are made here


    By those with little taste. Even though I’m quite small.
    I’m a sack filled with water, You can find me in the cytoplasm
    Food, enzymes, or waste Or, attached to E.R.’s wall.
    Who am I? __vacuole__________ Who am I? __ribosome________

    4. I’m the “brain” of the cell 9. Since I contain many enzymes,


    Or so they say. I can digest an injured cell;
    I regulate activities And break down a large molecule
    from day to day. Into a smaller one as well.
    Who am I? __nucleus__________ Who am I? __lysosome_________

    Write Your Own Riddle:

    Organelle Analogies: Write an analogies for three different organelles.


    1. Example: If I were a nucleus, I would be the king of organelles, ruling the cell and telling
    all the organelles what to do every day.
