Question

looking at the chart above what do you notice about the number of organelles in each type of cell? what does that tell you about the complexity of the two types of cells? develop a mnemonic device (clean and appropriate for school) to remember the organelles that are found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. 1. which of the following structures in the diagram below enables the observer to identify that it is a plant cell? a. 1 and 3 b. 1 and 2 c. 2 and 3 d. 2 and 4 2. when a runner sprints, their muscles require a large amount of cellular energy. based on this information, which organelle would be more abundant in a muscle cell than a skin cell? a. chloroplast b. ribosome c. mitochondrion d. nucleus 3. plant cells contain structures that carry out specialized energy - transfer functions that animal cells do not carry out. which of the following structures carries out this specialized function in plant cells? a. lysosome b. chloroplasts c. mitochondria d. central vacuole

Explanation:

Step1: Identify plant - cell features

Plant cells have a cell wall and chloroplasts. Assuming 1 is chloroplast and 3 is cell wall, they are unique to plant cells among the options.

Step2: Determine energy - providing organelle

Mitochondria are the power - houses of the cell, producing ATP. Muscles need more energy during sprinting, so mitochondria are more abundant in muscle cells than skin cells.

Step3: Identify plant - specific energy - transfer organelle

Chloroplasts are unique to plant cells and carry out photosynthesis, a specialized energy - transfer function not present in animal cells.

Answer:

1. a. 1 and 3
2. C. Mitochondrion
3. b. Chloroplasts
