1. The diagram shows the detailed structure of a plant cell.

What is organelle X?
A chloroplast C nucleus
B mitochondrion D vacuole

2. What structures can be found in both plant and animal cells?


A cell walls and cell membranes C cytoplasm and chloroplasts
B nuclei and cell walls D cell membranes and nuclei

3. In which part of the cell does aerobic respiration occur?


A cytoplasm C ribosome
B mitochondrion D vesicle

4. Why do some root cells have root hairs?


A for the maintenance of the temperature of the cell sap
B to increase the surface area of the cells
C to increase the volume of the cell sap
D to provide a place for cell nuclei
5. Which function is carried out by the ciliated cells in the respiratory tract?
A filtering dirt from passing air
B making mucus
C moving carbon dioxide out of the lungs
D moving mucus to the throat

Section B
1. Mitochondria are cell structures that contain a small quantity of DNA.
Scientists are sequencing the DNA of one particular gene in mitochondria to help
identify different species of many animals, including myriapods. The sequences that
they find are called ‘barcodes’.
