| Used to magnify small things. | microscope |
| Part of the microscope that is closest to what you are looking at. | objective lens |
| A large part of a plant or animal that does a very important job. | organ |
| Process that plants use to make their own food. It needs light to work. | photosynthesis |
| Plant organ used to take water out of the soil. | root |
| Found in roots. Takes in water from the soil. | root hair tissue |
| Organ used for protection and feeling. | skin |
| Glass sheet that a specimen is put on. | slide |
| What you look at down a microscope. | specimen |
| Part of the microscope. You put slides on it. | stage |
| Plant organ used to take water to the leaves and to support the leaves. | stem |
| Organ used to store and break up food. | stomach |
| Organs are made of different tissues. | tissue |
| Found in roots, stems and leaves. Transports water. | xylem tissue |
| The basic unit which living things are made of. | cell |
| Controls what goes into and out of a cell. | cell surface membrane |
| Tough wall around plant cells. Helps to support the cell. | cell wall |
| Green substance found inside chloroplasts. | chlorophyll |
| Green disc containing chlorophyll. Found in plant cells. Where the plant makes food using photosynthesis. | chloroplast |
| Thin piece of glass used to hold a specimen in place on a slide. | coverslip |
| Jelly inside a cell where the cell’s activities happen. | cytoplasm |
| How much bigger a microscope makes something appear. | magnification |
| Used to magnify small things. | microscope |
| Controls what a cell does. | nucleus |
| Process that plants use to make their own food. It needs light to work. Carbon dioxide and water are used up. Food and oxygen are produced. | photosynthesis |
| Glass sheet that a specimen is put on. | slide |
| What you look at down a microscope. | specimen |
| Dye used to colour parts of a cell to make them easier to see. | stain |
| Storage space in plant cells. | vacuole |
| When something has certain features to help it do a particular job. When the features of a cell help it do its job, the cell is said to be ‘adapted’ to its job. | adapted |
| Small hairs on some cells. | cilia |
| Having cilia. | ciliated |
| Cell with cilia found in the lungs. | ciliated epithelial cell |
| Cell that can change its length and so help us to move. | muscle cell |

| Another name for a nerve cell. | neurone |
| Cell found in leaves which contains many chloroplasts. | palisade cell |
| Cell found in roots. It has a large surface area to help the cell absorb water quickly. | root hair cell |
| A group of the same cells all doing the same job. | tissue |
| Hollow tube formed from xylem cells and used to carry water up a plant. | xylem tube |
| Takes in oxygen and gets rid of carbon dioxide from our bodies. | breathing system |

| Organ that produces sex cells. | reproductive organ |
| Contains a plant embryo and a store of food. | seed |
| Hard outer covering of a seed. | seed coat |
| A cell used for sexual reproduction. | sex cell |
| Producing new organisms by combining a male and a female sex cell from two different parents. | sexual reproduction |
