Term | Definition |

Multicellular | Organisms made of many cells |
Single Cellular | Organism made of one cell |
Energy | Organisms need this to live: Plants are producers and animals consumers |
Cell Specialization | Cells specialize after 5 days of growth for particular function. |
Cell Growth | Cells grow and develop through Sexual and Asexual reproduction. |
Cells | The basic building block of all living things |
Cell Division | The process of cells making more through Asexual reproduction |
Metabolism | The overall process of using food to create energy |
ATP | Energy created by the mitochondria |
Photosynthesis | Process by which plants create food |
Respiration | The process by which the mitochondria creates energy |
Sexual Reproduction | The process of making more cells through the combination of 2 organisms genetic information |
Cell Function | Every cell has a particular job in multicellular organisms. A cell in the heart has a job of being a heart cell. |
Organelles | These are found in the cell and are responsible for working together to maintain homeostasis in the cell |
ASexual Reproduction | The process of making more cells without requiring new genetic information. More cells come from 1 cell. |
