ORGANELLE
What is tiny structure inside a cell that has a specific job/function for the cell
100
The outer part of a plant cell that gives it its support
What is the cell wall
100
This is the control center of the cell; directs all cell activities
What is the nucleus?
100

These are two functions of the lysosome

What is to break down food, waste and old organelles

100
These are the 4 levels of organization in a multicellular organism in order of smallest to largest
What is cell, tissue, organ, organ system?
200
TISSUE
What is a group of similar cells working together
200

The major substance that a cell wall is made up of

What is cellulose

200
The structure that carries out the process of photosynthesis
What is a chloroplast?
200
This structure takes in energy and water and produces sugars (glucose) for the cell
What is the chloroplast?
200

Why don't root cells have chloroplast?

Since roots grow underground, they do not receive sunlight, making chloroplasts unnecessary.

300
ORGAN SYSTEM
What is a group of organs working together to perform a major function for an organism?
300
The INNER structure of a plant cell that helps keep its shape
What is a vacuole
300
The structure that makes proteins for the cell
What is a ribosome
300

Another function of the cytoplasm besides filling the cell

What is keeping all the organelles in place

300
These are the FIVE differences between a plant and animal cell.
What are a big vacuole vs. a small vacuole, a cell wall vs. no cell wall, chloroplasts vs. no chloroplasts, many lysosomes vs. a few lysosomes, and a rectangular shape vs. a round shape?
400

Chloroplast

the site of photosynthesis where sunlight is converted into food

400

Where would DNA be found in a plant or animal cell?

Nucleus

400
The structure that breaks down food to create energy for the cell
What is the mitochondria?
400
These are 3 things the vacuole does for a cell
What is store water, food, and waste products (and help provide support in a plant cell)
400
Where the cell of an unknown organism that includes mitochondria, a nucleus, choloroplasts and a cell wall would most likely be found: a. the bark of a tree b. a mushroom c. a bacteria d. a leaf
What is a leaf?
500

Cytoplasm

jelly-like substance in the cell that holds organelles in place

500

A flexible barrier around the cell that controls what enters and exits

Cell Membrane

500
The structure in a cell that transports proteins to other parts of the cell
What is the endoplasmic reticulum?
500

This is the function of the golgi body

To take simple molecules and make bigger molecules from them, package them and store them or send them out of the cell

500

These are two structures that a plant cell has that are not found in an animal cell. What are they?

What are cell wall and chloroplast?
