This man observed cork with his microscope and called the tiny boxes 'cells'
Who was Robert Hooke
an optical instrument with a single convex lens that magnifies an object
What is a Simple Microscope?
This fills the space inside a cell. It is semi-fluid and is composed of water and dissolved materials.
What is cytoplasm?
This organelle is large and central in plant cells but small and scattered in animal cells.
What is the vacuole?
A type of high-powered optical microscope that uses a system of two or more lenses, an objective lens and an eyepiece, to achieve high magnification
What is a compound microscope?
Which one is NOT found in animal cells: Mitochondria, chloroplast, ribosome, nucleus:
What is Chloroplast?
True or False: DNA is found only in Eukaryotic cells
What is False?
The idea that living organisms can arise from nonliving matter.
What is Spontaneous Generation?
This is the name of the microscope lens that you look through
What is the Ocular lens?
This organelle is responsible for breaking down waste materials and cellular debris using digestive enzymes
What is a lysosome?
This cell type has no nucleus or other organelles. Bacteria are an example of this cell type.
What is a prokaryotic cell?
The microscope component that controls the amount of light entering the field of view.
What is the diaphragm?
These can be found floating freely in the cytoplasm or attached to the rough ER, and they’re responsible for building proteins.
What are Ribosomes?
These are the three main shapes of bacterial cells
What are coccus, spirillum, and bacillus?
These are the three total magnifications for the objective lenses on the microscopes used in class
What are 40X, 100X, and 400X?
List the 3 organelles found in ALL cells
What are ribosomes, the cell membrane, and cytoplasm?
This is the reason plant cells have one large vacuole, while animal cells have many small ones
What is to keep the plant rigid and store water?
