100

What is the function of the nucleus?

The control center of the cell

100

Where is the nucleus often found?

In the center of the cell

100

Which type of cell has a cell wall?

a plant cell

100

What are all living things made up of?

Cells

200

What organelle is responsible for providing energy to the cell?

Mitochondria 

200

What is the function of the cell membrane

It let's good things such as nutrients in and bad things such as waste out

200

Where is the cell wall found?

On the outside- bordering the cell membrane

200

What is the difference between vacuoles in a plant cell vs. an animal cell?

A plant cell has 1 large vacuole and animal cells have several smaller vacuoles

200

True or false:

All living things reproduce

True!

300

What would happen if you took the nucleus out of the cell?

It would die
300

What is the function of the cytoplasm?

It is the jelly-like substance inside of a cell that holds all of the organelles in place

300

Where is the cytoplasm in the cell?

Everywhere!

300

What type of cell has chloroplast?

a plant cell!

300

What is the smallest amount of cells that an organism can be made up of? Name the word.

1- unicellular

400

How is the cell wall different from the cell membrane?

The cell wall is rigid and does not determine what enters and exits the cell.

The cell membrane is fluid and controls what enters and exits the cell.

400

What is the function of the vacuole?

It is the storage center for the cell

400

Where are all of the organelles found in the cell?

Floating in the cytoplasm

400

Why is a plant cell square?

The cell wall provides structure to the cell

400

Why do complex organisms require many cells?

They have complex structures, such as organs, that are made up of millions of cells. They are bigger

500

Name the 5 organelles, that we studied, in animal cells

Nucleus, cytoplasm, cell membrane, vacuoles, mitochondria

500

What is the function of the chloroplast?

The chloroplast contains chlorophyll- which uses the energy from the sun to generate food for the plant

500

Which organelle is Ms.Krumm's favorite organelle?

Cell wall 

500

Why don't animal cells require a cell wall?

Animals have other features, such as bones, to give them structure

500

What is homeostasis?

Reacting to stimuli in the environment to maintain an internal balance
