a) All organisms are composed of cells.
(b) Cell is basic structural unit of an organism.
(c) Cells are capable of producing more of themselves.
(d) Cells arise from the division of pre-existing cell.

(iii) What is the important function of nucleus?


(a) Photosynthesis
(b) Cellular reproduction
(c) Lipid synthesis
(d) Synthesis of ATP

(iv) The transportation of materials in the cell is done by


(a) Golgi complex

(c) mitochondria
(d) endoplamic reticulum

(v) Find the best definition of ‘vacuole’.


(a) A fluid filled structure surrounded by membrane.
(b) A thread like structure containing nuclear material.
(c) A jelly like substance which is present between nucleus and cell membrance.
(d) The basic structural units of an organism.

(vi) Identify the organelle that exists only in plant cell but NOT in an animal cell.
(a) Centriole
(b) Chloroplast
(c) Golgi apparatus
(d) Ribosome
(vii) ‘X’ is a double membraned organelle that oxidizes the food present in cell to release
energy. X is:
(a) nucleus
(b) endoplasmic reticulum
(c) mitochondrion
(d) chloroplast

2. Fill in the blanks


(a) Ribosomes are rich in .......... and ..........
(b) .......... are living, protoplasmic structures inside the cell capable of growth and sometimes
multiplication also.
(c) .......... are clear spaces present in the cytoplasm enclosed by a membrane.
(d)......... are the protein factories of the cell

3.Match the following:


Column I Column II
(A) Structures with unit membrane (p) Lysosome
(B) Structures with two membranes (q) Ribosome
(C) Structures without membrane (r) Plastids
(D) Structures with membrane bound tubules (s) Endoplasmic reticulum

4. Assertion and Reason


DIRECTION : In the following questions, a statement of assertion (A) is followed by a
statement of reason (R). Mark the correct choice as:
(a) Both assertion (A) and reason (R) are true and reason (R) is the correct explanation of
assertion (A).
(b) Both assertion (A) and reason (R) are true but reason (R) is not the correct explanation
of assertion (A).
(c) Assertion (A) is true but reason (R) is false.
(d) Assertion (A) is false but reason (R) is true.

(i) Assertion : The endoplasmic reticulum which lacks ribosomes is called smooth endoplasmic
reticulum (SER).
Reason : SER is mainly involved in protein synthesis.

(ii) Assertion: Mitochondria and chloroplasts are semiautonomous organelles.


Reason : They are formed by division of pre-existing organelles and contain DNA but lack
protein synthesizing machinery.

(iii) Assertion : Mitochondria are called ‘powerhouses’ of the cell.


Reason : Mitochondria produce cellular energy in the form of ATP.

(iv) Assertion : Plant cells have very large vacuoles.


Reason : In plant cells, vacuoles are full of cell sap.
5.Name the cell organelle which are known as:
(i) Control centre of the cell
(ii) Demolition squads/suicidal bags of the cell
(iii) Powerhouse of the cell
(iv) Kitchen of the cell
(v) Internal transport system

6. Which cell organelle provides peculiar colour to leaves, flowers and fruits?

7. ‘X’ is the organelles present in liver of animals which detoxifies many poisons and drugs.
Identify ‘X’.

8. Which cell organelle is known as the ‘suicidal bags’ of a cell? Why?

9. What is membrane biogenesis?

10. State the difference between smooth endoplasmic reticulum and rough endoplasmic
reticulum.

11. What is cell division? How is it important? Distinguish between two types of cell
division.
