ANSWERS

1. Answer : a) The green color of leaves is due to the presence of the pigment Chlorophyll.
Chlorophyll is important in photosynthesis, allowing plants to absorb energy from light. There
are four types of chlorophyll present. They are -

-chlorophyll-a, which is found in all higher plants, algae, and cyanobacteria; -chlorophyll
b, which is found in higher plants and green algae;
-chlorophyll c, which is found in diatoms, dinoflagellates, and brown algae; and -chlorophyll
d, which is found only in red algae.

2. Answer : a) Explanation - Ribosomes are found free in the cytoplasm or on the surface of rough
endoplasmic reticulum. Ribosomes are found in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells; in mitochondria,
chloroplasts and bacteria. Those found in prokaryotes are generally smaller than those in eukaryotes.
Ribosomes in mitochondria and chloroplasts are similar in size to those in bacteria. There are about
10 billion protein molecules in a mammalian cell and ribosomes produce most of them. A rapidly
growing mammalian cell can contain about 10 million ribosomes. [A single cell of E. Coli contains
about 20,000 ribosomes and this accounts for about 25% of the total cell mass].

3. Answer a) Explanation - White blood cell . In human blood, white blood cells or leukocytes
have the ability to change their form or shape. This allows them to engulf germs and destroy
them.

4. Answer d)
5. Answer a)Plant Cell only
6. Answer b) Group of cells

7. Answer: c) Explanation - The major difference between an animal cell and a plant is that,
unlike plant cells, animal cells are devoid of cell walls and chloroplast.
8. Answer: a) Explanation - Golgi apparatus, also known as the Golgi body, is a cell membrane that
is a part of the endomembrane system in the cytoplasm. It is a 'membrane-bound organelle' of the
eukaryotic cell which is made up of a series of 'flattened, stacked pouches’ called 'cisternae'. This
organelle serves as a 'primary packaging area' for molecules that will be distributed throughout the
cell. It packs the protein into membrane-bound vesicles inside the cell before sending it to its
destination.

9. Answer d) Explanation - A cell wall is a rigid structure in a cell that acts as a protective shield in
the cell to the other present organelles. It is non-living in nature

10. b) Lysosomes Explanation - Lysosomes are responsible for the digestion process in a cell. All the
food and worn out parts in the cells are broken down through the digestive enzymes. It keeps the
cell clean and free from any kind of bacteria. In abnormal cases, the lysosomes burst and end up
digesting their own cell, which is why they are also called suicide bags.
