WHAT IS CELLULOSE?

500

Plants and fungus has have this type of cell.

WHAT IS EUKARYOTIC?

Parts and pieces

100

This binds on to an mRNA molecule and uses the chemical code to make a protein?

WHAT IS A RIBOSOME?

200

If this were removed from a cell, the cell would continue to make proteins but the proteins would not be exported from the cell.

WHAT IS THE GOLGI APPARATUS?

300

This is the organelle where DNA is copied into RNA.

WHAT IS THE NUCLEUS?

400

Other than ATP, these are the outputs of cellular respiration in the mitochondrion.

WHAT IS CO2 and H2O

500

An organelle that makes C₆H₁₂O₆.  

WHAT IS A CHLOROPLAST?

Life molecules

100

This element is found in all biological molecules and allows the cell to build many types of molecules because it can form bonds with four other atoms.

WHAT IS CARBON?

200

This is a type of bond in which electrons are not shared equally.

WHAT IS A POLAR COVALENT BOND?

300

This happens to an animal cell when placed in a solution containing pure water.

WHAT IS SWELLS AND BURSTS?

400

Water enters the cell through this type of protein.

WHAT IS AN AQUAPORIN?

500

Insulin is produced in our pancreas cells and travels to other cells causing this to happen.

WHAT IS GLUCOSE UPTAKE?

WHAT IS PMAT?

400

The name for normal body cells such as skin cells and muscle cells.

WHAT IS A SOMATIC CELL?

500

The phase of mitosis in which the nuclear membrane breaks down, the spindle forms, and DNA condenses into chromosomes.
