1. What do prokaryotes and eukaryotes have in common? a. vacuoles b. nucleus c. ribosomes d. mitochondria Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells have ribosomes. Both types of cells reproduce and create proteins and ribosomes are needed for those purposes. Refer to the Venn diagram and "how-to- remember" section. All other options are membrane-bound organelles, and prokaryotes do not have membrane- bound organelles; therefore, you can immediately rule out a, b, and d.
2. What is the role of the lysosome? a. transport proteins b. synthesize proteins c. absorb energy through photosynthesis d. digest waste within the cell D is the correct answer because lysosomes are organelles that absorb waste and excess materials. The other options are functions of other organelles (a - endoplasmic recticulums, b - ribosomes, c- chloroplasts). Reference the "Membrane- Bound Organelles" section.
3. A group of tissues with similar functions is called _____? a. cell b. organ c. organ system d. A larger tissue Following the levels of organization sequence organs are the next level after tissues. Cells- tissue- organ- organ system.
4. How do the Golgi Apparatus and Endoplasmic Recticulums work together? The endoplasmic recticulum synthesizes proteins and transports other molecules around the cell. A lot of these molecules end up at the Golgi Apparatus where they are packaged and prepped for shipment.
5. Is streptobacillus bacterium eukaryotic or prokaryotic? Streptobacillus bacterium is prokaryotic. Bacteria is prokaryotic and streptobacillus bacterium is a type of bacteria, making a prokaryote.
