Term
Definition
Nucleus   Contains the genetic material (DNA) for the cell  
🗑
Cytoplasm   The fluid that fills up most of the space in the cell.  
🗑
Mitochondria   Provides energy for the cell. The power plant of the cell.  
🗑
Vacuole   Stores materials for the cell. Helps regulate turgor pressure in the plant cell  
🗑
Ribosomes   Creates proteins for the cell  
🗑
Endoplasmic Reticulum (Smooth)   In eukaryotic cells, breaks down lipids/steriods, controls calcium release, made of lipids  
🗑
Chloroplast   Converts energy from the sun, water (H2O), and carbon dioxide into food (sugar and oxygen) for the cell. Located in only the plant cell. Also responsible for the plant's green color (chlorophyl).  
🗑
Cell Wall   Provides protection and structure for the cell. Located in only the plant cell  
🗑
Cell Membrane   Thin, flexible outer layer that holds the cell together and controls what enters and leaves the cell  
🗑
Unicellular   Made up of one cell  
🗑
Multicellular   Made up of more than one cell  
🗑
Prokaryote   Cells with no nucleus or membrane-bound organelles  
🗑
Eukaryote   Cells with a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles  
🗑
Cell Theory   All living things are made of cells, cells can only come from other living cells, cells are the basic building block of life.  
🗑
Organelle   Structures that carry out funtions in a cell  
🗑
Nucleolus   Located inside the nucleus. Produces ribosomes  
🗑
Rough ER   Transpots proteins throught the cell  
🗑
Golgi Body   Packages macromolecules and proteins for the cell in vesicles. Makes lysosomes, stack membrane bound vesicles  
🗑
Lysosome   Breaks down old/uneeded parts of the cell with enzymes  
🗑
Turgor Pressure   Pressure exerted on a plant cell wall by water passing into the cell  
🗑
Endocrine System   Secretes hormones that regulate body funtions. Coordinates other body systems. Major organs include: Endocrine Glands- pituitary, hypothalamus, pineal, thymus, thyroid, parathyroid, adrenals, pancreatic islets, testes (males), ovaries (females)  
🗑
Immune System   Protects body against diseases Major organs include: Lymph nodes, lymphatic vessels, tonsils, spleen  
🗑
Lymphatic System   Assists in recovering the body's tissue fluids and returning them to the heart. Major organs include: Lymph nodes, lymphatic vessels  
🗑
Homozygous   Having identical (same) alleles  
🗑
Heterozygous   Having different alleles  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
