| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| plant and animals | 2 types of cells |
| an idea that explains something and is supported by data | theory |
| 3 jobs of the cell membrane | protect, gives support, controls movement of material in and out of cell |
| The control center of a cell | nucleus |
| non-living material in cell wall of a plant cell | cellulose |
| this cell has a cell wall, chloroplast and chlorophyll | plant cell |
| thin structure around the cell | cell membrane |
| where all living material inside the cell except for the nucleus is located | cytoplasm |
| breaks down food to produce energy | mitochandria |
| ribosomes, vacuole, mitochondria | organelles |
| stores waste | vacuole |
| green material in chloroplast that is needed for plants to make food | chlorophyll |
| liquid filled space in cytoplasm that stores food, water, and waste | vacuole |
| all living things are made up of one or more cells | cell theory |
| cells are the basic units of structure in living things, and cells carry out all life processes | cell theory |
| cells come only from other living cells | cell theory |
| supports and gives a cell its shape | cell membrane |
| protects the cell | cell membrane |
| a part of the cell that controls cell reproduction | nucleus |
| rice-shaped structures that produce energy for a cell also know as the 'powerhouse' of the cell | mitochondria |
| small structures in the cytoplasm that do special jobs | organelles |
| small round structures that make proteins | ribosomes |
| transport tubes that move substances from one organelle to another | endoplasmic reticulum |
| controls what goes in and out of the nucleus | nuclear membrane |
| protects the nucleus | nuclear membrane |
| gives the nucleus shape | nuclear membrane |
| first person to see cells. He saw dead plant cells. | Robert Hooke |
| first person to observe living cells | Anton van Leuwenhoek |
| the "brain" of the cell | nucleus |
