Question
Answer
prokaryotic cell   A cell that has no distinct, membrane-bounded organelles  
🗑
eukaryotic cell   A cell with distinct, membrane-bounded organelles  
🗑
Pathogen   an organism that causes disease  
🗑
Decomposers   Organisms that break down the dead remains of other organisms  
🗑
vegetative reproduction   The process by which one part of a plant can form new roots and develop into a complete plant  
🗑
classification system   identifies all things around us and places them into Kingdoms  
🗑
Biology   the study of life  
🗑
five-kingdoms   Monera, Protista, Fungi, Plantae, Animalia  
🗑
Eukaryotic   cells that have a nucleus  
🗑
Prokaryotic   cells without a nucleus  
🗑
Algae   composed of eukaryotic cells and look like water plants, but they are not really plants  
🗑
Pathogenic   disease causing  
🗑
dehydrated food   food in which almost all the water has been removed which reduces bacteria growth  
🗑
Amoeba   Protozoan "blob" organism with no defined shape or specialized structures  
🗑
Kingdom Monera   Single prokaryotic celled microorganisms or the "simplest" form of life that can thrive and multiply in extreme habitats  
🗑
Kingdom Protista   This kingdom contains single celled eukaryotic organisms as well as organisms like algae. Needs moisture to live and are bigger than Monera organisms  
🗑
protozoa and algae   Kingdom Protista's 2 groups  
🗑
Protozoa   single celled organisms that belong to Kingdom Protista and behave like animals - moving around and eating other organisms  
🗑
Algae   Belong to Kingdom Protista and are more like plants. They are the most important source of photosynthesis on earth but are without specialized plant structures like roots, stems.  
🗑
Euglena   Protozoa that have flagellum and an eye spot, don't eat other organisms, they produce food for photosynthesis  
🗑
Flagellum   the tail on an organism or cell that allows it to move through the fluid in which they live.  
🗑
eye spot   a light sensing spot the euglena needs for photosynthesis  
🗑
Paramecium   Protozoa called "ciliates" that are the largest and move by using cilia and consume more food than most  
🗑
Cilia   hair like structures that beat back and forth like oars in water creating movement  
🗑
Plasmodium   Protozoa that cause malaria transmitted through mosquito bites.  
🗑
Diatom   Algae that are responsible for more photosynthesis than any other group of algae  
🗑
Kelp   Algae that looks like a water plant and is called seaweed and can grow very large - in excess of 100 feet  
🗑
red algae   another form of seaweed that is not green but still performs photosynthesis  
🗑
Kingdom Fungi   This kingdom is made up of organisms with several eukaryotic cells, breaks down dead organisms creating nutrients, called decomposers  
🗑
Mycelium   The main body of a fungus made up of network of interwoven filaments, usually below the surface  
🗑
shelf fungi   found growing out of dead trees  
🗑
Mold   found growing on decaying food  
🗑
Yeast   single-celled fungus used in baking bread  
🗑
Kingdom Plantae   Made up of several eukrayotic cells, makes its own foodand has specialized plant structures  
🗑
roots, stems, leaves   Three specialized plant structures of plants  
🗑
cell wall and central vacuole   Things plant cells have that animal cells don't have  
🗑
vegetative reproduction   The process by which one part of a plant can form new roots and develop into a complete plant  
🗑
Roots   These parts of a plant absorb water and nutrients from the soil  
🗑
Stems   These parts of a plant help transport the nutrients and water to other parts of the plant  
🗑
Leaves   These parts of a plant are the main place where photosynthesis takes place  
🗑
Photosynthesis   The process by which green plants produce food  
🗑
cell wall   a rigid structure in a plant cell that has openings in it which allow nutrients and other chemical to pass through  
🗑
central vacuole   fills with water, increasing in size, in a plant cell resulting in a rigid cell when full of fluids  
🗑
Turgor pressure   The rigidity in a plant’s cells that allow the plant to stand up straight  
🗑
Kingdom Animalia   Earthworms, insects, fish, animals, birds, humans and some microscopic animals belong to this Kingdom.  
🗑
Cyclops   large group of small, water-swelling animals that have only one eye that cannot see but can detect light  
🗑
Monera   the only kingdom that has single prokaryotic cell organisms  
🗑
Bacteria   members of kingdom Monera are often called ?  
🗑
Protozoa   Which organism can move on its own: protozoa or algae?  
🗑
Algae   what is the most important source of oxygen for the planet?  
🗑
Fungi   which kingdom contains decomposers?  
🗑
Yeast   Name a single-celled fungus?  
🗑
turgor pressure   when the central vacuole in a plant cell fills with water, pushing the organelles against the cell wall  
🗑
Animalia   To which kingdom do people belong?  
🗑


   

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.
