Labels & Origin Theories
100

This biomolecule provides quick, short-term energy to cells, and its name often ends in "-ose".

Carbohydrates

100

Often referred to as the control center of a eukaryotic cell, it holds the hereditary DNA.

nucleus

100

This simple type of cell lacks a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles.

prokaryote

100

This entity is considered non-living and cannot reproduce without hijacking a host cell.

virus

100

Nutrition labels display the amount of vitamins and these four main organic categories.

biomolecules

200

These building blocks link together to form proteins.

Amino Acids

200

This organelle is found only in plant cells and performs photosynthesis to make food.

chloroplasts

200

According to Cell Theory, all cells come from the reproduction of these.

existing LIKE cells

200

Bacterial cells are living organisms that contain these structures to run cellular functions, while viruses have none.

organelles

200

This theory explains that internal membranes, such as the ER, formed when the cell membrane folded inward.

The Autogeneous Theory

300

These biomolecules make up the structural framework of the cell membrane.

Lipids

300

These tiny structures are responsible for synthesizing proteins in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.

ribosomes

300

Unlike eukaryotes, prokaryotes store their single circular DNA chromosome in this region.

nucleoid region

300

In a virus, the genetic material (DNA or RNA) is housed inside this protein coat.

capsid

300

Evidence supporting the Endosymbiotic Theory includes the fact that mitochondria and chloroplasts have their own version of this molecule.

DNA

400

This biomolecule provides support and protection in the exoskeletons of insects and marine animals.

carbohydrate

400

Besides the Golgi apparatus and ER, this power-generating organelle is exclusive to eukaryotic cells.

mitochondria

400

These four kingdoms of organisms are classified as what type of cells: Plants, Animals, Fungi, and Protists.

Eukaryotes

400

Name two characteristics that viruses and bacteria have in common.

genetic material

have proteins

cause disease

400

According to the Endosymbiotic Theory, mitochondria and chloroplasts were once these types of organisms before being engulfed.

prokaryotic cells (or bacteria)

500

Enzymes are an example of this type of miomolecule.

protein

500

This protective structure is present in both plants and bacteria, but absent in animal cells.

cell wall

500

What is the name of the theory that these 3 ideas come from?

  • All living things are composed of one or more cells.  

  • Cells are the basic units of structure and function.  

  • Cells come only from pre-existing like cells  

cell theory

500

Some prokaryotes use this tail-like appendage for movement, which is absent in viruses.

Flagella

500

These biomolecules contain nucleotides and act as the "instruction manual" for building enzymes in cells, but they are not listed on any nutritional labels.
