Cell Structure
This is the chromosome containing organelle of an eukaryotic cell
What is Nucleus?
This is how DNA exists when the cell is not dividing. It is made up of DNA plus proteins.
What is Chromatin?
Plant cells have a plasma membrane, which is then surrounded by this.
What is Cell Wall?
These are animals without backbones.
What are Invertebrates?
This is the part of the body that Gili has fractured twice.
What is wrist?
This is a membrane-enclosed sac taking up most of the interior of a plant cell
What is central vacuole?
This organelle functions as the site of protein synthesis.
What is Ribosomes?
A young plant cell first secretes a relatively thin and flexible wall that is called this.
What is Primary cell wall?
This is the name of the pigment that makes leaves green.
What is Chlorophyll.
This is the license she got when Gili was 12.
What is boating license?
This is an organelle found in plants that absorbs sunlight and uses it to drive synthesis of organic compounds.
What is Chloroplasts?
This is where metabolism of carbohydrates and detoxification of drugs occur.
What is Smooth ER?
This is formed when plasma membranes of neighboring cells in a layer are fused, forming a barrier that prevents leakage of extracellular fluid across the layer.
What is Tight Junction?
This is the number of chromosome pairs that humans have.
What is 23?
This is Gili's Favorite Holiday.
What is Halloween?
This is an extensive membranous network in eukaryotic cells that is composed of ribosome-studded and ribosome-free regions.
What is Endoplasmic reticulum?
These are used as guide tubes for movement of materials, for separation of chromosomes during cell division, and for maintaining the shape of cells by assuming a compression-resisting role.
What is Microtubules?
In plants, these structures allow movement of cytoplasm from one cell to another.
What is Plasmodesmata?
This is the most common element in the body.
What is oxygen?
This is the Gili's current drink order at Dunkin.
What is Iced Matcha Latte?
This organelle contains enzymes that transfer hydrogen from various substrates to oxygen, producing and then degrading hydrogen peroxide.
What is Peroxisomes?
These are used in muscle contraction, cell motility, and for resisting pulling forces in the maintenance of cell shape. These help maintain the shape of the cell by bearing tension (resisting pulling forces) and are made up of a diverse family of proteins.
What is Microfilaments?
These connections provide cytoplasmic channels between adjacent animal cells.
What is Gap Junctions
What is peptide bond?
This is Gili's most worn pair of shoes in college.
What are sambas?
