Question

Match column I with column II.

Column 1	Column 2
Vacuole	Photosynthesis
Plastid	Power house
Nucleus	Store house
Mitochondria	Controlling center

Answer 1

Explanation :

A. Vacuole: III. Storehouse

1. Vacuoles are membrane-bound cell organelles that are used for storage.
2. These are present in both animal and plant cells but plant cells contain larger vacuoles than the animal cell.
3. Vacuoles store food as well as the essential nutrients needed for cells.
4. Vacuoles also store waste material produced after the metabolic activities in the cell.

B. Plastid: I. Photosynthesis

1. Plastids are the large cell organelles present only in plant cells.
2. There are three types of plastids: chromoplast, leucoplast, and chloroplast.
3. Plastids take part and help in the photosynthesis, production and storage of metabolites.
4. Mainly chloroplast takes part in the process of photosynthesis due to the presence of chlorophyll.

C. Nucleus: IV. Controlling centre

1. The nucleus is the main controlling organelle of the cell.
2. The nucleus is an organelle that is found in eukaryotic cells.
3. The nucleus comprises nuclear membrane, nucleoplasm, nucleolus, and chromosomes that contain genetic materials.

D. Mitochondria: II. Powerhouse

1. Mitochondria is a double-layered cell organelle that is one of the energy-producing organelles in the cell.
2. Mitochondria produces and stores energy in the form of ATP by cellular respiration.
3. Mitochondria are called as “powerhouse of the cell”.
