8-Science-Cell-Structure and Functions-Assignment

This document is from a science textbook chapter about cells. It includes an assignment with multiple choice and fill-in-the-blank questions about cell structures and their functions. Some key points covered are: - The basic unit of structure and function of living things is the cell. - Cells can be single-celled (prokaryotes like bacteria) or multicellular (eukaryotes like plants and animals). - Cells have a nucleus that houses DNA and controls cell processes, a cytoplasm where chemical reactions happen, and a cell membrane that encloses the cell. - A microscope is needed to observe most cells due to their microscopic size.
