Organelle Function An organelle is a specialized cell structure. Each organelle functions in a different way to help the cell carry out life processes. A mitochondrion, nucleus, endoplasmic reticulum, and Golgi apparatus are pictured and described below. Write the name of the organelle underneath its picture. Organelle Function controls most cell processes and stores genetic material makes membrane lipids that will be exported out of the cell modifies, sorts, and packages materials from the endoplasmic reticulum converts the energy stored in food into a more useable form Use the table to answer the question. 1. Which of the structures shown above contains a nucleolus? 11
Plant Cell Use the words below to label the plant cell. Some structures have already been labeled for you. cell wall mitochondrion ribosome chloroplast nucleus vacuole Plant Cell smooth endoplasmic reticulum Golgi apparatus cell membrane rough endoplasmic reticulum Use the diagram to answer the questions. 1.

Cell Membranes The cell membrane controls what enters and leaves the cell. Most cell membranes are made up of a phospholipid bilayer. This bilayer usually contains membrane proteins embedded in it. Draw a diagram of a portion of a cell membrane. Label the cytoplasm and the area outside the cell. A sample phosolipid and membrane protein have been diagrammed for you. membrane protein phospholipid carbohydrate chain Answer the question. 1. What do the carbohydrate chains on some membrane proteins do? 12
Diffusion and Osmosis Diffusion is the movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. Osmosis is the diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane. Look at the beakers on the left. In the beakers on the right, draw in any changes in water level or number of solute particles on each side of the membrane that occur as a result of the described process. membrane water Diffusion of Solute Particles solute particles solute particle movement Osmosis water movement Use the diagrams to answer the question. 1. Look at the top left beaker. What would happen if the membrane did not allow water or solute particles to pass through it? 13
Facilitated Diffusion and Active Transport Facilitated diffusion occurs when a substance diffuses across the cell membrane through a protein channel. Active transport occurs when the cell uses energy to carry a substance across the cell membrane. Look at the diagrams. Label each as either facilitated diffusion or active transport. Glucose molecules Molecule to be carried Energy Molecule being carried Use the diagram to answer the questions. 1. Which process can move molecules from a lower concentration solution on one side of the membrane to a higher concentration solution on the other side? 2. Which process does not require energy? 14
