Who first discovered cells?

R. Hooke

100

What are cells?

Smallest unit of living matter

100

Mitosis function and division

cells that repair the body

Heal and grow

parent divide once into 2 daughter cells

100

How do you see through the microscope?

Eye piece

100

What is a cell organelle?

Function like tiny organs to keep cells alive

200

What are three components of cell theory?

1. All living organisms are composed of one or more cells.

2. The cell is the most basic unit of life.

3. all cells come from existing cells.

200

Three jobs a cell does

digest food

carry messages to the brain

fighting disease

200

meiosis function

create new life

the parent cell divides twice and creates four cells instead of two

200

First compound microscope?

1590 H. Janson

200

Functions of: cell membrane, permeable, cytoplasm

Cell membrane: holds the cell together

permeable: lets thing in and keeps thing out

cytoplasm: jelly like substance allows organelles to move around

The cell chain

cells

tissue

organs

organ systems

the body

500

Name 8 organelles and their functions. 

  • Nucleus: The cell’s command center; it stores DNA and coordinates cellular activities.
  • Mitochondria: Gives energy to the rest of the cell
  • Ribosomes: Assemble proteins from amino acids.
  • Endoplasmic Reticulum: Synthesize and transport proteins and lipids. 
  • Golgi Apparatus: Acts as the cell’s post office by sorting, modifying, and packaging proteins and lipids for delivery.
  • Lysosomes: The waste disposal system, containing enzymes that break down waste, foreign invaders, and cellular debris.
  • Chloroplasts: Found only in plant cells, these convert sunlight into sugar via photosynthesis.
  • Vacuoles: Storage sacs for water, nutrients, and waste products. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
