| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| A complete living thing; their classification is divided by similar characteristics | Organisms |
| Smallest unit of a living organism | Cell |
| A group of cells working together | Tissues |
| A group of tissues working together; example are your lungs, heart, liver | Organs |
| Organs that have a particular function create | Systems |
| Provides the external boundary for a cell | cell membrane |
| Characteristics of living things | Grow and develop, reproduce, respond to their environment, use energy, made up of cells |
| Cell theory | Living things are made of cells; nonliving things are not made up of cells. Cells can function as individual organisms or as the smallest units in a larger organisms |
| One-celled organism | unicellular |
| Organism made of many cells | multicellular |
| first to observe and name cells | Robert Hooke |
| One of the men who formed the basis of cell theory | Theodor Schwann |
| Developed a system of classification | Carolus Linnaeus |
| Invented the first microscope | Zacharius Jansen |
| Organelles found only in plant cells | cell wall and chloroplast |
| bubble-like storage organelles found in a cell | vacuole |
| cell engines; powerhouse of cell; break down food & release energy | mitochondria |
| jelly-like substance inside cell membrane | cytoplasm |
| cell's delivery or transportation system | endoplasmic reticulum |
| make the proteins the cell needs | ribosomes |
| large circular structure containing the DNA | nucleus |
| the DNA is packed into tight bundles called | chromosomes |
| Cell structure that holds the green pigment found in plant cells | chloroplast |
| Green pigment found in plant cells to absorb energy from sunlight | chlorophyll |
| process of an organism producing reproductive cells | meiosis |
| process of an organism growing and replacing cells | mitosis |
| Six kingdoms as described by Linnaeus | Eubacteria, Archaebacteria, Protista, Fungi, Plantae, Animalia |
| Scientific name an organism uses | Genus & Species |
| Smallest living organisms; sometimes found in yogurt | Eubacteria |
| organisms that live in conditions poisonous to other living things | Archaebacteria |
| Protozoans & Algae | Protista |
| Yeast, mold, mushroom | Fungi |
| Multicellular organisms with chlorplasts | Plantae |
| Multicellular organisms without cell walls | Animalia |
