Miscellaneous
100

The movement of molecules from a region of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration

diffusion

100

The thick fluid inside the cell membrane

cytoplasm

100

Powerhouse of the cell

Has two layers of membranes - the inner membrane is folded into ridges

mitochondria

100

Structure made of DNA and other molecules

chromosomes

100

He was known for grinding his own lenses to view tiny organisms

Leeuwenhoek

200

Diffusion and osmosis are this type of transport

passive transport

200

The parts of a cell that carry on many of the functions necessary to keep the cell alive

cytoplasmic organelles

200

Tiny organelles that direct the assembling of proteins

Ribosomes

200

Cellular structure that contains chromosomes

nucleus

200

This type of transport requires a cell to use its own energy

active transport

300

These types of membranes allow only certain molecules to pass through

selectively permeable

300

A series of folded membranes found in the cytoplasm of cells that allows substances to move from one part of the cell to another

Endoplasmic reticulum (ER)

300

Organelle which appears green

Inner membranes contain chlorophyll

Contains substances and structures needed to carry on photosynthesis

Chloroplasts


300

A medical doctor who examines human tissues, blood, and other body fluids to diagnose diseases and disorders

pathologist

300

The diffusion of water through a membrane

osmosis

400

These have one basic design, but there are many variations of that design in different types of cells

cell membranes

400

A structure in cells that stores various types of materials

vacuole

400

An organelle that contains enzymes to digest substances that are no longer needed

Lysosomes

400

A compact, roundish structure that functions as the control center for the cell

nucleus

400

This type of microscope uses two sets of lenses

compound light microscope

500

This contains two molecules (protein and lipid) and membrane flexibility

fluid mosaic model

500

This part of a cell is not found in all cells

cell wall

500

Organelle responsible for packaging substances that are then released from the cell

Golgi apparatus

500

The movement of substances through a membrane without the use of a cell's own energy

passive transport

500

These are generally shorter and are found in greater numbers on a cell than this

(two answers)

cilia - shorter

flagella - longer (long whiplike structures used in cellular movement)
