| Question | Answer |
| Structure | what an organism is made of and how it works |
| Function | processes that enable an organism to stay alive and reproduce |
| Cell Theory | -all living things are made of cells -cells are the basic unit of structure and function in living things - all cells are produced from other cells |
| Compound Microscope | two lens, one lens magnifies the other lens' magnification (convex lens) |
| Resolution | sharpness of an image |
| Electron Microscope | uses a beam of electrons instead of a light to produce a magnified image |
| Organelles | tiny cell structures that carry out specific functions |
| Plant Cell Wall | helps protect and support the plant cell |
| Cell Membrane | controls what substances that go in and out of the cell |
| Nucleus | the cell control center |
| Nuclear Envelope | protective wall around the nucleus |
| Chromatin | strands that contain genetic material that instructs the cell on how to grow |
| Nucleolus | this is where the ribosomes grow |
| Mitochondria | converts energy in food molecules into energy the cell can use (cell powerhouse) |
| Endoplasmic Reticulum | passageways that carry proteins and other materials from one part of the cell to another |
| Ribosomes | produces proteins |
| Golgi Body | receives proteins and newly formed materials, packages them, and sends them out across the cell (cell mailmen) |
