The basic unit of structure for all living things
What is a cell?
Plant cells contain this outer section whereas animal cells do not.
What is a cell wall?
Acting like the government, the function of the nucleus is to do this.
What is to control the cell's activities.
The ability to keep internal conditions suitable for living.
What is homeostasis?
The study of life
What is biology?
All cells are made of these tiny, non-living structures.
What is an atom?
Typically found in the cell center, it is the so-called brain of the cell.
What is the nucleus?
Ribosomes produce these basic building blocks of life
What are proteins?
Molecules moving from area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.
What is diffusion?
Reproduction by a single organism is known as this.
Asexual reproduction.
Uni-cellular organisms are made up of this number of cells.
What is one?
The fluid that surrounds the parts of the cell.
What is cytoplasm?
Like buses and cars, the function of the ER (endoplasmic reticulum) is this.
What is transportation?
Water passing through a membrane from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.
What is osmosis?
In an experiment this type of measurement deals with number
What is quantitative?
Unicellular organisms include protists, some fungi and this type of organism.
What is bacteria?
Known as the powerhouse of the cell, this makes energy.
What is the mitochondria?
Like a warehouse, the vacuole is responsible for this.
What is storage?
This process of movement requires use of ATP.
What is active transport?
In an experiment this type of measurement deals with characteristics or traits?
What is qualitative?
Several atoms hooked together create these.
What are molecules?
This part of the cell regulates what gets into or is released from the cell.
What is the cell membrane?
Like the city dump or recycling center, this is the function of the lysosomes.
What is breaking down substances?
The most common and important type of active transport in the human body system.
This is the idea that the experiment is trying to prove.
What is the hypothesis?
