Animal Cell Structure

Most animal cells contain specialized structures that perform vital functions like respiration and protein synthesis.

Would you get these right in an exam?

What is Animal Cell Structure?

"Animal cells are eukaryotic cells that contain a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles, but lack a cell wall and chloroplasts."

Question 1

Which cell structure contains the genetic material in an animal cell?

Question 2

What is the main function of mitochondria?

Question 3

Which structure is found in a plant cell but not in an animal cell?

Mitochondria are where aerobic respiration takes place, releasing energy for the cell.

Ribosomes are the site of protein synthesis.

Exam Tip

The cell membrane controls the movement of substances into and out of the cell.

The fastest way to improve your grade is to practise exam-style questions, identify your gaps, and focus only on what you don't know.
