| What do we call a solution with a lower concentration of solute? hypertonic or hypotonic | hypotonic |
| The membrane that surrounds the NUCLEUS in a eukaryote cell is called what? | nuclear envelope |
| Inside the nucleus is the nucleolus. What is in the nucleolus? | parts that will make ribosomes |
| What do ribosomes do? make protein or create energy? | make protein (hint: think RIBS... ribs are made of protein!) |
| What is the function of the endoplasmic reticulum? | it's a network that manufactures proteinand transports material through the cell |

| Why are vacuoles so large in plants? | To store water and nutrients. (Hint... plants don't move so they have to store water) |
| What organelle sacs contain digestive enzymes that break down proteins, etc.? lysosomes or ribosomes? | lysosomes (Hint... think LYSOL which cleans homes by breaking down grease, etc.) |

| What organelle stores food, water, wastes and building materials? | vacuoles |
| What is the powerhouse of the cell and performs cellular respiration? | mitochondria |
| What cell part has the network of microtubules and microfilaments? cytoskeleton or cytoplasm | cytoskeleton (usually found in the cytoplasm, cytosketeton give the cell shape, support or organelles, etc.) |
| The double helix of sugar, phospates and nitrogen bases that contain genetic material is called what? DNA or bi-layer | DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) |

| What organelle stores water and materials in plants? | vacuoles |
| The passage of large molecules through the plasma membrane INTO the cell is called what? exocytosis or endocytosis? | endocytosis (requires energy!0 |
| The passage of large molecules OUT of the cell is called what? endocytosis or exocytosis | exocytosis (requires energy!) |
| What is it called when molecules moving in and out of the cell are almost equal? | equilibrium |
| What type of transport uses energy to move molecules from low concentration to high concentration? active or passive transport? | active transport |
| Osmosis is a form of active or passive transport? | passive transport (it uses no energy) |
| What are the sacs that moves products in, out and around the cell called? vesicles or UPS | vesicles |
