🗑
Cell Theory   1. all living things are made of one or more cell 2. cells are the units of stucture and function in an organism 3. cells come only from preexsiting cells  
🗑
Cell Membrane   the lipid bilayer that froms the outer boundary of a cell  
🗑
Eukaryote   a cell that contains a nucleus and membrane bound organelles  
🗑
Prokaryote   a unicellular organism that lacxks a nucleus andmembrane bound organelles  
🗑

🗑
Cytoskeleton   maintains size and shape of the cell  
🗑
Actin   protein that makes up microfilaments  
🗑
Nuclear Envelope   double membrane surrounding the nucleus  
🗑
Chromatin   a combination of DNA and protein in the nucleus  
🗑
Nuclear Pores   small holes in the nuclear envelope  
🗑
Nucleolus   where ribosomes are synthesized  
🗑
Microfilaments   the smallest strands that make up the cytoskeleton  
🗑
Organ   several types of tissue that interact to preform a specific function  
🗑
Organ System   made up of a group of organs that work together to preform a set of related tasks  
🗑
Tissue   groups of cells that carry out a specific function  
🗑
Central Vacuole   in plant cells, a large, membrane bound sac that stores water, nutrients, or other substances  
🗑
Chloroplasts   in plants, organelles that use light to make organic compounds  
🗑
Vesicle   a small, membrane bound sac  
🗑
Most functions of a Eukaryotic cell are controlled by the cells   Nucleus  
🗑
Smooth ER lacks   ribosomes  
🗑
SI   a system of meausrement based on powers of 10  
🗑
Electrom Microscope   uses a beam of electrons to form an image of a specimen  
🗑

🗑
Magnification   making an image look larger than it actually is  
🗑
Light Microscope   light passes through one or more lenses to produce a magnified image of a specimen  
🗑
Resolution   a measure of an image's clarity  
🗑
van Leeuwenhoek   invented the first microscope; viewed an "animacules" in pond water  
🗑
Hooke   looked at a piece of cork through a microscope and found the dead tree cells; came up with the term "cell"  
🗑
Schleiden   "all plants are made up of cells"  
🗑
Virchow   "all cells come from preexsisting cells"  
🗑
Scanning Electron Microscope   produces highly magnified 3-D images of a cells surface  
🗑

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.
