i need to know it :v

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.

Term
Definition
Cytology   the branch of biology concerned with the structure and function of plant and animal cells.  
🗑
Cell   the smallest structural and functional unit of an organism, typically microscopic and consisting of cytoplasm and a nucleus enclosed in a membrane. Microscopic organisms typically consist of a single cell, which is either eukaryotic or prokaryotic.  
🗑
Organelle   any of a number of organized or specialized structures within a living cell.  
🗑
Organism   Organism is an individual living thing, such as a plant, animal, bacterium, protest, or fungus.  
🗑
Unicellular   consisting of a single cell.  
🗑
Multicellular   having or consisting of many cells.  
🗑
Prokaryotic   a microscopic single-celled organism that has neither a distinct nucleus with a membrane nor other specialized organelles.  
🗑
Prokaryotes   a microscopic single-celled organism that has neither a distinct nucleus with a membrane nor other specialized organelles. Prokaryotes include the bacteria and cyanobacteria.  
🗑
Eukaroytic   An organism whose cells contain a nucleus surrounded by a membrane and whose DNA is bound together by proteins (histones) into chromosomes.  
🗑
Eukaryotes   an organism consisting of a cell or cells in which the genetic material is DNA in the form of chromosomes contained within a distinct nucleus. Eukaryotes include all living organisms other than the eubacteria and archaebacteria.  
🗑
Cell theory   a basic tenet of modern biology, that cells are the basic units of structure and function in living organisms.  
🗑
Virus   A minute organism that consists of a core of nucleic acid surrounded by protein.  
🗑
Tissues   any of the distinct types of material of which animals or plants are made, consisting of specialized cells and their products.  
🗑
Organs   a part of an organism that is typically self-contained and has a specific vital function, such as the heart or liver in humans.  
🗑
Diffusion/Passive transport   is a movement of ions and other atomic or molecular substances across cell membranes without need of energy input.  
🗑
Osmosis   a process by which molecules of a solvent tend to pass through a semipermeable membrane from a less concentrated solution into a more concentrated one, thus equalizing the concentrations on each side of the membrane.  
🗑
Active transport   the movement of ions or molecules across a cell membrane into a region of higher concentration, assisted by enzymes and requiring energy.  
🗑
Semi-permeable   A membrane that is selectively permeable, being permeable to only certain molecules and not to all molecules.  
🗑
Phagocytosis   the ingestion of bacteria or other material by phagocytes and amoeboid protozoans.  
🗑
Pinocytosis   the ingestion of liquid into a cell by the budding of small vesicles from the cell membrane.  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
