Question | Answer |
---|---|
What does the cell wall do? | Protects and keeps cell in shape |
What does the cell membrane do? | Allows certain things like vitamins and minerals through. |
What does the cytoplasm do? | It is where chemical reactions take place |
What does the chloroplast do? | It produces chlorophyll for the photosynthesis process |
What does the nucleus do? | Controls all activities in the cell |
What does the vacuole do? | It stores dissolved food and minerals |
What does the mitochondria do? | It is a powerhouse, it converts glucose into ATP for energy. |
What is the Endoplasmic Reticulum | It Carrieās protein and minerals from one part of the cell to the other |
Cell wall, chloroplasts, and the large central vacuole are only to animal or plant cells or both | Plant cells |
What are the three cell theory pieces. | 1. All living things are composed of cells 2. Cells are the smallest unit of living things that can perform the processes necessary for life 3. Living cells come only from other living cells |
What are the similarities between Meiosis and Mitosis? | Both create new cells, in both DNA replicates once |
What are 4 factors of Mitosis | 1 occurs in body cells 2 divides once 3 creates 2 cells 4 are genetically identical |
What are 5 factors of Meiosis | 1 it occurs in gametes cells 2 divides twice 3 creates 4 cells 4 are not genetically identical 5 increases genetic diversity |
What are the three main phases of the cell cycle | Interphase, mitosis, and cytokinesis |
What is the purpose of mitosis | Is to produce new cells for growth and repair that are identical to the parent cell |
What is the purpose of meiosis | Is to produce reproductive(sex) cells that carry half the genetic material of the parent |
What is the order of phases of the cell cycle | Interphase, prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, cytokinesis |
