Question

A biology teacher asks his class to make models of a plant cell, an animal cell, and a bacterial cell. Aside from cytoplasm and the cell membrane, which other cell structure will the students need to make for all three models?

Answer 1

Plant Cell Structure: Chloroplast, Mitochondria, Plasma Membrane, Peroxisome, Golgi Apparatus, Vacuole, Ribosomes, Plasmodesmata, Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum, Nuclear Envelope, Nucleolus, Nucleus, Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum,

Animal Cell Structure: Lysosome, Golgi Vesicles, Rough ER, Smooth ER, Centrioles, Golgi Apparatus, Mitochondrion, Nucleolus, Nucleus, Microtubules, Ribosome,

Bacteria Cell Structure: Ribosomes, Mesome, Capsule, Plasmid DNA, Bacterial Flagellum, Chromosomal DNA, Fimbriae

Answer 2

The most possible answer would be ribosomes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Bacteria is characterized as prokaryotes while animal and plants are eukaryotes.

Apart from the cytoplasm and cell membrane there are ribosomes are found in both prokaryotic cells eukaryotic cells, that can be bacteria, animal and plant cell. Ribosomes are essential for the translation of the DNA to form a protein.

In animal and plant cells they can be attached to the endoplasmic reticulum or free in the cytoplasm whereas in bacterial cells ribosomes are usually found as free ribosomes in the cytoplasm.

Thus, the correct answer would be ribosomes.
