QuestionAnswer
a part of the cell containing DNA and RNA and responsible for growth and reproduction Nucleus
structures in the nuclear envelope that allow passage of certain materials between the cell nucleus and the cytoplasm Nuclear Pores
a net-like structure in the cytoplasm of animal cells Golgi Apparatus
non membrane bounded organelles responsible for protein synthesis Ribosomes
cell organelle filled with enzymes needed to break down certain materials in the cell Lysosomes
a tiny cavity filled with fluid in the cytoplasm of a cell Vacuole
a jellylike fluid inside the cell in which the organelles are suspended Cytoplasm
a thin membrane around the cytoplasm of a cell Cell membrane
organelles that capture the energy from sunlight and convert it into chemical energy in a process called photosynthesis Chloroplasts
strong layer around the cell membrane in plants, algae, and some bacteria Cell wall
threadlike structures made of DNA molecules that contain the genes Chromosomes
sequence of DNA that codes for a protein and thus determines a trait Gene
deoxyribonucleic acid, the material that contains the information that determines inherited characteristic DNA
ribonucleic acid, a natural polymer that is present in all living cells and that plays a role in protein synthesis RNA
Essential to DNA, it is on the outside of the double helix. The bases bind to it Sugar
makes up the sides of the DNA ladder with deoxyribose Phosphate
The base that pairs with Thymine in DNA Adenine

The base that pairs with Thymine in DNA Adenine
The base that pairs Adenine in DNA Thymine
The base that pairs with Cytosine in DNA Guanine
The base that pairs with Guanine with DNA Cytosine
(genetics) any event that changes genetic structure Mutation
a mutation in which a nucleotide or a codon in DNA is replaced with a different nucleotide Substitution
Gene mutation that adds a nucleotide that doesn't belong. This changes the amino acid sequence and protein sequence. Addition
the loss of a part of DNA from a chromosome Deletion

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
