- 1Distinguish between the structure of plant and animal cells.

- 2By what process do most bacteria divide?Binary fission
- 3In viewing an electron micrograph of a cell, ribosomes, pili and a single circular chromosome are observed. What structure will also be present?A plasmid.
- 4With structure can be found in both plant and animal cells?Mitochondrion.
- 5When viewing an endocrine cell of the pancreas using a light microscope which structures would not be visible?The rough endoplasmic reticulum (rER) and the 80s ribosomes
- 6Name a characteristic of an organelle.They are sub-cellular structures.
- 7Describe an exocrine cell.

- 8What is the function of ribosomes?Synthesis proteins to function in the cytoplasm.
- 9What is a function of the rough endoplasmic reticulum (rER)?Synthesises proteins which are transported by vesicles, to the Golgi Apparatus for modification.
- 10What is a function of the Golgi Apparatus?Helps process proteins from the rER.
- 11What is the function of the flagellum?To help the movement of the cell. Found in animal cells only.
- 12What is a function of the Pili?To help move and transport liquids.
are to attach a bacterial cell to specific surfaces or to other cells. - 13Describe an animal cell.

- 14Describe a plant cell?
