The nucleus was the first organelle to be discovered. What is most likely the oldest preserved drawing dates back to the early microscopist Antonie van Leeuwenhoek (1632 – 1723).

What is a cell organelle that has the nickname powerhouse?
Mitochondria are commonly referred to as the (eukaryotic) cell's "powerhouse".
Where are ribosomes formed in cells?
Ribosome in a eukaryote is formed in the cytoplasm and definitely not in the nucleolus of the nucleus . There seems to be a confusion between ribosomes and ribosomal sub units . Ribosomal sub units are indeed formed in the ncleolus . yes , agreed . But when some body raises a questions 'Where exactly ribosomes are formed ' ? The answer is - cytoplasm and definitely not nucleolus . What do my friends who read this say !!!
What can you use to represent 5 organelles of a plant cell?
1. Nucleus- this organelle is the control center of plants and where the hereditary information is housed. Within the nucleus chromatin,which is the hereditary material, along with RNA, proteins, and the nucleolus are housed. The nucleolus, which is not bound by a membrane, palys a significant part in the formation of ribosomes. 2.Central Vacuole-A fluid filled sac that acts as a warehouse and stores various substances like the cell sap, a watery solution of sugars, salts, amino acids, proteins, and crystals, which are all separated from the cytoplasm by the vacuolar membrane. 3.Mitochondrion- A double membrane bound organelle which is the site of cellular respiration in plants. 4.Leucoplasts- colorless organelles that can store various materials, but most commonly starch. 5.Chloroplasts- The site of photsynthesis within the plant that allows it to produce food from carbon dioxide and water using the energy of sunlight.
What are the two main type of cells?
Prokaryotic cells, and Eukaryotic cells are the two MAIN types of cells.
Where are chloroplasts believed to have come from?
There is a theory that chloroplasts and mitochondrias were once a free living bacteria that came inside a eukaryotic cell and started a mutual relationship with the eukaryotic cell. The bacteria got to have a shelter, and in return, the eukaryotic is able to create more energy by mitochondrias, or be able to convert from co2 to o2. It is only a theory though.

Are all soccer balls spherical?
Soccer balls are not always spherical in shape; commonly, the surface of a soccer ball is composed of many hexagonal patches that are slightly ridged.
Which of the following is true regarding planetary nebulae?
Some, but not all, are round and spherical. However, most are dumbell shaped, or more commonly dubbed, bipolar.
What is the most common shape of opal?
Opals are generally elliptical in shape, are in some cases pear or spherical. Angular shapes for opals are not commonly seen.

What is a cells power plant?
The mitochondria is commonly referred to as a cell's power plant in eukaryotic cells.A cells power plant is the mitochondrion which produces ATP for the cell to perform its functions.
Are chromatin found in eukaryotes or prokaryotes?
In eukaryotic cells, the chromosomes are located in the nucleus. In prokaryotic cells, the chromosomes are in the cytoplasm.
Does eubacteria reproduce by binary fission?
No, eukaryotic cells undergo mitosisOnly Prokaryotes divide by binary fission
What is the scientific definition of nucleus?
The nucleus is a membrane bound structure that contains the cell's hereditary information and controls the cell's growth and reproduction. It is commonly the most prominent organelle in the cell.
What is a monogon?
A monogon (more commonly called the Henagon) is a one-sided polygon. In Euclidean Geometry, (on a flat plane) it is considered a impossible because lines continue on forever. In Spherical Geometry, [on a spherical (circular) plane] a finite monogon can be drawn by placing a placing a single vertex on a circle because circles are basically a polygon with infinite sides.
