Cell theory
According to cell theory, all living things are made of this.
What are cells?
This is the bottom of the microscope.
What is the base?
this is a rigid structure that protects plant cells
What is the cell wall?
This acts as the cell's control center
What is the nucleus?
Animal cells do not have this rigid structure.
What is a cell wall?
The basic unit of life.
What is a cell?
This is the curved metal piece of a microscope, one hand should be on it when carrying.
What is the arm?
This controls what can enter and leave a cell
What is the cell membrane
Within a cell, energy is made here
What is the mitochondria?
Animal cells cannot make their own food, and thus do not have this structure.
What is a chloroplast?
This is the minimum number of cells an organism can have.
What is one?
This is something important about carrying the microscope.
(Mr. Stitt will grade responses)
This is the region between the nucleus and the cell membrane
What is the cytoplasm?
This organelle takes energy from the sun to make energy
What are chloroplasts?
This organelle isn't usually present in plant cells.
What is a lysosome?
Cell theory has this many parts.
What is three?
This is the piece of glass that has something on it you will look at under a microscope.
What is a slide?
This acts as a highway sending proteins to different parts of the cell
What is the endoplasmic reticulum?
The storage areas of a cell
What are vacuoles?
Plants, animals, and this are considered complex life (made of more than one cell).
What is fungus?
According to cell theory, all living cells come from these.
What are pre-existing cells? (cells that are already alive)
The spinning piece of a microscope that changes the magnification.
What is the nose piece?
This organelle receives protein and other materials and distributes them to other parts of the cell
What is the Golgi Body?
These structures break down food particles
What are lysosomes?
Bacteria cells have DNA, but don't have the same structure they are stored in other cells. This is that structure.
What is the nucleus?
