Function of Cell Membrane? Protects the cell and controls what enters/exits
Function of Cytoplasm? Holds organelles and site of metabolic activities
Function of Nucleus? Stores genetic material (DNA) and controls cell functions
Function of Mitochondria? Produces energy (ATP) through cellular respiration
Function of Ribosomes? Synthesizes proteins
Function of Endoplasmic Reticulum? Synthesizes proteins and lipids
Function of Golgi Apparatus? Modifies, packages, and transports proteins and lipids
Function of Lysosomes? Breaks down waste and cellular debris

Function of Centrioles? Organizes microtubules during cell division
Function of Vacuoles? Stores nutrients, waste, and maintains cell pressure (in plant cells)
what is Function of Chloroplasts? Conducts photosynthesis (in plant cells)
Function of Cell Wall? Provides structure and protection (in plant cells)
what Protects the cell and controls what enters/exits? Cell Membrane
what Holds organelles and site of metabolic activities? Cytoplasm
what Stores genetic material (DNA) and controls cell functions? Nucleus
what Produces energy (ATP) through cellular respiration? Mitochondria
what Synthesizes proteins? Ribosomes
what Synthesizes proteins and lipids? Endoplasmic Reticulum
what Modifies, packages, and transports proteins and lipids? Golgi Apparatus
what Breaks down waste and cellular debris? Lysosomes
what Provides structure, movement, and intracellular movement? Cytoskeleton
what Organizes microtubules during cell division? Centrioles
what Stores nutrients, waste, and maintains cell pressure (in plant cells)? Vacuoles
what Conducts photosynthesis (in plant cells)? Chloroplasts
what Provides structure and protection (in plant cells)? Cell Wall
why do plant cells have Chloroplasts? Plants use sunlight to make their food, so they have chloroplasts (they help plants make food through photosynthesis).
why do plant cells have a Cell Wall? Plants need to stay upright and strong, so they have a tough outer wall (called the cell wall) to protect and support them.
why do plant cells have a Large Vacuole? Plants have a big vacuole to store water and keep the cell firm (helps the plant stay bloated and strong).
why do animal cells have No Cell Wall? Animal cells are more flexible and don’t need a hard outer wall because they move around and don’t need the same kind of protection that plants do.
why do animal cells have Centrioles? Animal cells need special parts to help them divide and grow properly, so they have centrioles for cell division (splitting into two cells).
why do animal cells have Smaller Vacuoles? Animal cells have smaller vacuoles for storing food, water, and waste.
why do bacterial cells have a Cell Wall? Like plant cells, bacteria also have a cell wall to protect them.
why do bacterial cells have No Nucleus or Organelles? Bacteria are simpler than plant or animal cells, so they don’t have a nucleus or many of the "fancy" organelles that more complex cells have.
Why are Some Parts Only in Certain Cells? Plants need chloroplasts to make their own food from sunlight. Animals need flexibility (no cell wall) and centrioles to help their cells divide. Bacteria are simpler and don’t need all the extra parts because they can survive in different ways.
how does the microscope's Eyepiece (Ocular Lens) work? It magnifies the image. Usually, it has a magnification of 10x, meaning it makes the image 10 times bigger than it really is.
how does the microscope's Objective Lenses work? They provide different levels of magnification (usually 4x, 10x, 40x, and sometimes 100x). You can rotate the nosepiece to switch between different objective lenses, depending on how much you want to zoom in.

what is the microscope's Fine Focus Knob? A smaller knob, often located near the coarse focus knob.
what is the microscope's Stage? The flat platform where you place the slide that holds the sample.
what are the microscope's Stage Clips? Metal clips on the stage.
what is the microscope's Condenser Lens? Located below the stage.
what is the microscope's Diaphragm (Aperture)? A small adjustable disk located under the stage, usually near the condenser lens.
what is the microscope's Light Source? The light bulb or mirror that shines light through the specimen.
what is the microscope's Arm? The curved part that connects the eyepiece and body tube to the base of the microscope.
what is the microscope's Base? The bottom part of the microscope.
what is the microscope's Nosepiece? The rotating part that holds the objective lenses.

what are the 3 types of rocks? igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary
what are intrusive rocks? rocks formed inside the earth
what are extrusive rocks? rocks formed outside the earth
how are igneous rocks formed? These rocks form from the cooling and solidification of molten magma or lava.
how are sedimentary rocks formed? Sedimentary rocks are formed from the accumulation and compaction of sediments, which can be fragments of other rocks, organic matter, or minerals. Over time, layers of sediment build up and harden into rock.
how are metamorphic rocks formed? Metamorphic rocks form when existing rocks (either igneous, sedimentary, or other metamorphic rocks) are subjected to high pressure, temperature, or chemically active fluids, causing them to change in structure or composition without melting.
what side of the heart is the aorta on (if looking at a diagram)? right
what side of the heart is the vena cava on (if looking at a diagram)? left
give some examples of igneous rocks. Granite, basalt, and pumice.
give some examples of sedimentary rocks. Sandstone, limestone, shale.
give some examples of metamorphic rocks. Marble (from limestone), slate (from shale), schist.

what happens at constructive plate boundaries? at constructive plate boundaries, two plates seperate, forming volcanoes.
what is the life cycle of a rock? Igneous rock forms from cooling magma/lava. Erosion turns rock into sediments. Sediments gather and squish making sedimentary rocks. Metamorphism changes sedimentary /igneous rocks to metamorphic rocks under heat/pressure. Rocks melt to form new magma
how are volcanoes made? volcanoes are made when magma from the Earth's mantle rises to the surface due to tectonic activity, forming a cone/mountain as it erupts/cools.
how are fold mountains made? Fold mountains form when two continental plates collide, causing compression of the Earth's crust. The crust folds, creating anticlinal and synclinal structures. Over time, uplift and erosion form mountain ranges, like the Himalayas and Alps.
