List in order from smallest to largest: organs, tissue, cells, systems

cells, tissue, organs, systems

100

This organelle provides extra support in plant cells.

cell wall

Animals cells are eukaryotic or cells with a

A. membrane-bound nucleus

B. cilia and flagella

C. wall and chlorophyll

M. Golgi complex

A. Membrane-bound nucleus

200

He worked with Matthias Schleiden to form the basis of the cell theory.

Theodor Schwann

200

This structure forms the external boundary of the cell.

cell membrane

200

Living things reproduce and respond to this.

environment

200

Organisms classified as Eubacteria, Archaebacteria, or Protista are this type of cell.

unicellular

200

The jelly-like substance inside the cell.

cytoplasm

200

Animal cells differ from plant cells in that they

A. are larger

B. can't make their own food

C. are eukaryotic

D. have cell walls

B. can't make their own food. 

300

He developed a system of classification still used today.

Carolus Linnaeus

300

These bubble-like organelles store materials such as water and food.

vacuoles

300

This process allows organisms to grow and replace old cells.

mitosis

300

In the scientific naming system, the last two parts of classification are used.

genus and species

300

The “brain” of the cell that controls its activities.

nucleus

300

What is the term for the study of animals?

Zoology

400

The idea that all living things are made of cells is known as this.

Cell Theory

400

These organelles act like engines, breaking down food and releasing energy.

mitochondria

400

The orgenelle by which organisms break food down and release energy.

mitochondria

400

Organisms with similar characteristics are grouped together through this process.

classification

400

Are plants unicellular or multicellular

multicellular

400

Which of the following can NOT be present in a single-celled organism?

A. Cell Walls

B. Genes

C. Proteins

D. Tissues

D. Tissue

A tissue by definition is made up of groups of similar specialized cells, so tissue cannot exist.  Single celled organisms do have genes and CAN have cell walls (some bacteria do), and proteins are a basic molecular building block present in all known organisms, single-celled, and otherwise

This process allows organisms to make new reproductive cells.

meiosis

500

This green pigment allows plants to absorb sunlight energy.

chlorophyll

500

Man differs from animals because he was created this way.

We are made in God's image; we all have a moral code written on our hearts
