c. Both plant and animal cells contain chloroplasts.
d. Both plant and animal cells have rough ER.
__B__3. How are prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells different?
a. Prokaryotic cells have nuclei, but eukaryotic cells lack nuclei
b. Prokaryotic cells lack membrane-bound organelles, but eukaryotic cells have membrane-bound
organelles.
c. Prokaryotic cells lack ribosomes, but eukaryotic cells have ribosomes.
d. Prokaryotic cells are larger than eukaryotic cells.
__C__4. Choose the statement that correctly characterizes bound ribosomes.
a. Bound ribosomes are enclosed in their own membrane.
b. Bound ribosomes are structurally different from free ribosomes.
c. Bound ribosomes generally synthesize membrane proteins and secretory proteins.
d. The most common location for bound ribosomes is the cytoplasmic surface of the plasma
membrane.
e. Bound ribosomes are concentrated in the cisternal space of the rough ER.

__D__9. Cells of the pancreas will incorporate radioactively labeled amino acids into proteins. This
“tagging” of newly synthesized proteins enables a researcher to track the location of these
proteins in a cell. In this case, we are tracking an enzyme that is eventually secreted by pancreatic
cells. Which of the following is the most likely pathway for movement of the protein in the cell?
a. ER  Golgi  nucleus
b. Golgi  ER  lysosome
c. nucleus  ER  Golgi
d. ER  golgi  vesicle that fuses with plasma membrane
e. ER  lysosome  vesicle that fuses with plasma membrane
__A__10. Which microscope would be the best to use to study the changes in shape of a red blood cell
placed in different solutions?
a. Light microscope
b. Scanning Electron microscope
c. Stereoscope
d. Transmission electron microscope
e. Hubble Telescope
MATCHING: Choices may be used once, more than once, or not at all. More than one letter may be
necessary to accurately answer the question.

__N__18. Water-holding chamber surrounded by the tonoplast membrane
R. Lysosome
__L__19. Organelle that stores starch or pigments.
__F__20. Contains enzyme that produces H2O2 and hydrolyzes H2O2 to H2O and O2.
__M__21. Produces RNA and therefore produces ribosomes.
__P__22. Produces lipids, carbohydrates, or proteins.
__P__23. Creates transport vesicles to move products from one organelle to another.
_C, D, E, F, G, L, M_24. Organelle(s) NOT associated with the endomembrane system
__R_25. Involved in intracellular digestion (hydrolysis) of macromolecules obtained by phagocytosis.
