Organelles!
Checking OUT! Checking IN!
Mystery
Mitosis
100
This is the smallest unit of life.
A cell.
100
This organelle makes the proteins.
What are ribosomes!
100
The cell membrane has ___________, meaning it can decide what to let in and what to let out.
What is selective permeability?
100
This is the organelle that controls all of the cell functions. It would be like the BRAIN of the cell.
What is the nucleus?
100
This is the phase of interphase where the cell starts to grow
What is G1
200
Is it better for cells to be bigger or smaller? Why?
Smaller, because the surface area is smaller, so it is easier for the cell to get its work finished.
200
This is the organelle that decides what comes in and what leaves the cell. It is made of a phospholipid bilayer.
What is the cell membrane? (Will also accept plasma membrane)
200
This is the process by which solute moves from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
What is diffusion?
200
This is what DNA is called when it's tangled up in a stringy ball inside the nucleus during Interphase.
What is chromatin?
200
This is the phase of mitosis where the chromatin begins to condense into chromosomes
What is prophase?
300
This is a type of cell that does not have a nucleus. An example would be ancient bacteria.
What is a prokaryotic cell?
300
This is the organelle that suspends the other organelles (holds everything in place). It's jellylike and splits at the very end of mitosis.
What is the cytoplasm?
300
This type of diffusion involves water, and it is when water travels through the cell membrane.
What is osmosis?
300
This is the acronym that will help you remember the four phases of mitosis in order.
What is PMAT?
300
This is the phase of mitosis where the chromosomes align down the center of the cell
What is metaphase?
400
What is the organelle that is involved in making proteins and is an interconnected vessel of tubules
What is the rough endoplasmic reticulum.
400
This is diffusion where particles exit the cell.
What is exocytosis?
400
This is the stage of the cell cycle where the cells have completely split.
What is cytokinesis?
400
This is the phase of mitosis where the chromosomes begin do decondense back into chromatin and nuclear envelopes begin to form around it.
What is telophase?
500
This is a complex cell. It HAS a nucleus. Animal cells and plant cells are this type of cell.
What is a eukaryotic cell.
500
This is the organelle that packages the proteins-it would be like the mail room of the cell.
What is the golgi complex?
500
Diffusion when particles ENTER the cell.
What is endocytosis?
500
Name the four phases of mitosis in order!
What is prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase.
500
This is the stage of mitosis where the chromosomes split and the microtubules shorten.
What is anaphase?
