Cell Theory
How many parts does the cell theory have?
Organisms that can make their own food without consuming others are called
Autotrophs
This type of variation can help animals blend in with their surroundings and avoid predators.
What is caouflage
Organisms that hunt other organisms for food
Heterotroph
These simple organisms do not have a nucleus and are usually unicellular.
Prokaryotes or prokaryotic organisms.
Where do ALL cells come from?
All cells come from pre-existing cells.
Protozoa are a group of microscopic organisms found in water or moist environments. They can move on their own and perform all life functions within a single structure. Based on this, are Protozoa unicellular or multicellular?
Unicellular.
A disadvantage of being the only white rabbit in a forest of brown ones.
What is being easier for predators to spot.
Cells that do NOT contain a nucleus
Prokaryote
These organisms make their own food using sunlight or chemicals
autotrophs
All living things are made of at least one ________.
Cell
Bacteria are tiny organisms that can survive in a wide range of environments, including soil, water, and even inside your body. Each bacterium carries out all the functions it needs to survive. Based on this information, are bacteria unicellular or multicellular?
Unicellular
This word describes differences between individuals in the same species that can help them survive.
What are traits (or variations)?
What is an organims made of many cells
Multicellular
A cactus has thick, waxy skin. This is a variation that helps it survive in this type of environment.
What is the desert.
Do ALL cells contain DNA?
Yes, in Prokaryotes it floats freely inside the cell, but in Eukaryotes it is contained in the Nucleus.
E. Coli is a type of bacterium commonly found in the intestines of humans and animals. Like other bacteria, it has no nucleus and performs all life processes. Given this description, is E. Coli unicellular or multicellular?
Unicellular.
A giraffe with a longer neck has the advantage when food is hard to reach.
What is being able to reach leaves higher up in trees?
What are organisms only made of one cell called
Unicellular
A certain bird species lives on an island. Some have longer beaks and some have short beaks. If a new type of flower with deep nectar becomes common, which birds are more likely to survive?
What are birds with longer beaks.
Who first coined the tem "cells" when describing cork under a microscope?
Who is Robert Hooke
Cells that store the DNA inside a nucleus are called?
Eukaryotic Cells
A disadvantage of having very little variation in a population when a new disease spreads.
What is that the whole population could get sick or die?
This term describes a helpful trait that increases an organism's chances of surviving and reproducing.
Adaptation
Compare prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells using one key difference.
What is eukaryotic cells have a nucleus, and prokaryotic cells do not?
