| What is a compound microscope | A(n) microscope with two or more lenses. |
| What is total magnification? | Equal to the magnifications of the two lenses multiplied together. |
| What is magnification? | The ability to make things look larger than they are |
| What is resolution? | ______ is the ability to clearly see parts of an object. AKA Sharpness |
| What is an electron microscope | A(n) __________________ uses a beam of light instead of light (like a regular microscope uses) to examine a specimen |
| who was the first to use the term cell | Robert Hooke was the first to use the term _____ |
| who was the first to discover pond life | Anton van Leeuwenhoek was the first to discover |
| who was the first to discover that all plants are composed of cells | Matthias Schleiden was the first to discoverd |
| who was the first to discover that all animals were made up of cells | Theodor Schwann discovered |
| Who discovered that cells only come from other cells | Rudolf Virchow discovered |
| Who was the first to discover the nucleus if the cell | Robert Brown discovered |
| What is the cell theory? | All living things are made up of cells, cells are the basic units of structure and function in living things, new cells are produced from existing cells |
| What are prokaryotic cells? | Cells without a nucleus are |
| What are the two links of the prokaryotic cells? | Bacteria and archaea are |
| What are cells with a nucleus called? | Eukaryotic cells have a |
| What are the two kinds of Eukaryotic cells? | Plants and animals are |
| Unique parts of plant cells | Cell wall, chloroplasts, and one large vacuole, |
| Unique parts of animal cells | Round shape, centrioles, small vacuole |
| Cell Membrane | Selects what will leave or enter the body |
| Cytoplasm | A gel-like substance that all the other organelles are floating in |
| The Nucleus | The control center of the cell |
| Ribosomes | Site of protein synthesis |
| The Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) | A complex network of transport channels. Contains ribosomes. (The Highway) |
| The Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) | A complex network of transport channels. Contains ribosomes. (The Highway) |
| Golgi Apparatus/Bodies | A series of flattened sacs that modifies, packages, stores, and transports materials out of the cell. (The Post Office) |
| Lysosomes | removes waste. (Garbage Men) |
| Centrioles | ONLY FOUND IN ANIMAL CELLS. These organelles play a role in cellular reproduction. |
| Mitochondrion | Produces energy for the cell (ATP). The Powerhouse of the cell. |
| The Chloroplast | ONLY FOUND IN PLANT CELLS. Photosynthesis is carried out here. |
| Vacuole | Used for storing food and water. |
| If a cell contains a large vacuole, chloroplast, cell wall, what type of cell is it? | Plant Cell |
| If a cell contains a small vacuole, and centrioles, what type of cell is it? | Animal Cell |
| Cell Wall | ONLY FOUND IN PLANT CELLS. Provides shape, support and protection to a plant cell. |
| What is the shape of a cheek cell? | It has a circular shape. |
| Is the nucleus always found in the middle of the cell? | NO |
| What part of an animal cell, gives the cell its shape? | The Cell Membrane |
| Why are stains used when observing cells under the microscope? | To make the specimen easier to see |
| Why don't animals have chloroplasts? | Because we use our mitochondria to convert food into energy. |
| All living things are made of | cells |
| Cells are the basic unit of (there are points) | Structure and Function |
| What are cells produced from | other cells |
