| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Coiled up chains of DNA that carry instructions on how to make proteins | Chromosomes |
| Structure found in plant cells that uses light energy, water and carbon dioxide to make glucose; photosynthesis happens here | Chloroplast |
| Structurs inside cytoplasm that have their own specific job or function | Organelle |
| Watery fluid inside the cell that organelles are suspended in | Cytoplasm |
| Place where proteins are built; free floating or attached to ER | Ribosomes |
| Control center for the cell; contains genetic information (DNA) | Nucleus |
| A cell that has a nucleus and other membrane bound organelles | Eukaryotic |
| Provides shape, protection and support for plan cells; made of cullulose | Cell Wall |
| Breaks down sugar to make energy (ATP); power house of the cell | Mitochondria |
| Responsible for digestion in the cell; destroys worn-out organelles, gets rid of wastes and protects cell from harmful particles | Lysosome |
| Flexible cover around the cell that controls movement of materials into and out of the cell; separates cell from outside environment | Cell Membrane |
| Makes and modifies proteins and lipids; part of cell's delivery system; helps break down materials that can harm the cell | Endoplasmic Reticulum |
| Small sac that surrounds material to be movewd in or out of the cell | Vesicle |
| Simple cells with no recognizable organelles (no nucleus) | Prokaryotic |
| Modifies, sorts, and ships molecules that are made in the ER; post office of cell | Golgi Complex |
| Surrounds the nucleus; substances pass in and out through pores | Nuclear Membrane |
| Type of vesicle found in plant cells; can store water, food, and waste products; soome have digestive enzymes | Vacuole |
| Found in animal cells; form spindle fibers to separate chromosomes during cel division (mitiosis) | Centriole |
| What are the 3 parts of the cell theory? | 1. All organisms are made up of one or more cells 2. The cell is the basic unit for all living things 3. All cells come from existing cells |
| What are 2 things that plant cells have that animal cells do not? | Cell walls and chloroplasts |
| What are 2 things that animal cells have that plant cells do not? | Lysosomes and centriols |
| What is one difference between animal and plant cells? | Plant cells have large central vacuoles and animal cells have small central vacuoles |
| What is the basic unit of all living things? | Cells |
| What are 3 things that all cells have in common? | A cell membrane, organelles, and all cells come from existing cells |
| What does a eukaryotic cell have that a prokaryotic cell does not? | A nucleus |
| Name two kinds of eukaryotes that have cell walls | Bacteria and archaea |
| What is a cell? | A cell is the smallest structural and functional unit of living things |
| Who discovered the first cell? | Robert Hooke |
| What discription did he compare the cell to? | Little rooms-cells |
| Single celled organisms or | protists |
