__C__5 Ribosomes (e) A region within the cytoplasm that contains the bacterial
chromosome
__E__6 Nucleoid (f) Smaller rings of DNA in the cytoplasm that replicate independently
region of the bacterial chromosome

cell

3 Match the eukaryotic cell organelle to its function or characteristic.
Organelle
_A___1 Mitochondrion
__F__2 Chloroplast
_G___3 Golgi apparatus
__H__4 Endoplasmic
reticulum
_B___5 Ribosomes
__C__6 Lysosome
__E__7 Centrioles

(b) Occurs free in the cytoplasm or attached to the endoplasmic
reticulum
(c) Cell organelle with hydrolytic enzymes
(d) A membrane-enclosed organelle that can function as storage
(e) Paired organelles from which microtubules originate in animal
cells
(f) Surrounded by a double membrane and carries out
photosynthesis
(g) Flattened sacs that function in exocytosis
(h) A transporting structure that can exist in a rough or smooth
form

4. Magnification- Magnification is the number of times larger an image is compared with the real size of
the object. In order to calculate magnification, you need to divide the size of the image by the actual
size of the specimen.

a- Yesterday in biology lab you are looked at onion cells under a microscope and want to know how
big the cells really are. You measure the size of the cells as it appears and find out that is measures
20mm with a magnification of x450. Work out the actual size of the cell.

Magnification = size of image / actual size of specimen

Let a = the actual size of the cell (mm)

450 = 20 / a

450a = 20

a=20/450

a = 0.04

the actual size of the cell = 0.044 mm

2
 b- What is the size of a virus head in the image , if its actual size is 6.8mm and it has been magnified
x2500?

Let b = the size of the virus head in the image.

2500 = b/ 6.8

17000 = b

The size of a virus head in the image = 17000mm after it has been magnified x2500.
