How it all connects
100

Rigid structure on the outside of the cell membrane that protects and gives structure to the cell

 A. Cell Membrane 

B. Vacuole 

C. Nucleus 

D. Cell Wall

D. Cell Wall

100

This part of the cell makes a usable form of energy called the ATP. Its Known as the powerhouse of the cell. 

Mitochondria 

100

The shape that scientists have declared that the DNA structure looks like a _____________________

Double Helix / Twisted Ladder 

100

 During this phase, new nuclear membranes are formed around the groups of chromosomes, the spindle fibers disappear, and the chromosomes uncoil.

Telophase

100

If you plant a seed in the ground and each time it grows taller the cells are duplicating, that is a real example of what happening?

Mitosis 

200

This is another protective layer of the cell that helps control what moves in and out of a cell

A. Cell Wall 

B. Cell Membrane 

C. Nucleus 

D. Vacuole

B. Cell Membrane 

200
This is the part of the cell that receives proteins and lipids from the ER. It processes and packs them into vesicles for transport. 

A. Nucleus 

B. Nucleolus 

C. Golgi Complex

D. Vacuole

Golgi Complex

200

The chemical compound that is used to make one of the building blocks of DNA and RNA. It pairs with Thiamine 

Adenine 

200

During this phase, spindle fibers attach to the chromosomes as they group together.

Metaphase 

200

Which one of these is a plant cell ?

Left

300

Thick clear fluid that surrounds all the organelles in a cell. It has a gel like texture

A. Cytoplasm 

B. Chloroplasts 

C. Vacuole

D. Nucleolus 

Cytoplasm

300

The layer around the DNA and nucleolus that contains pores which allow materials to move n and out of the nucleus. 

A. Cell Wall 

B. Cell Membrane 

C. Nuclear Membrane

Nuclear Membrane 

300

Makes the genetic code more durable since it has a higher resistance to photochemical mutation. It pairs with adenine

Thymine 

300

 During this phase, the nuclear membrane begins to break down, spindle fibers appear at each end of the cell, and chromosomes become visible as paired bundles.

Prophase

300

Where is the nucleus at on here? 


#1

400

The ___________ are the site of photosynthesis which is the processes that make nutrients / food (sugar) using solar energy. 

A. Ribosomes 

B. Vacuole

C. Chloroplast

D. Organelles

Chloroplast

400

Membrane enclosed fluid filled sac that is found in plant and animal cells. 

A. Organelle 

B. Ribosome 

C. Vacuole

D. Mitochondria

Vacuole
400

Represents a nucleotide base due to its ability to bond with guanine. Critical for imprinting. It pairs with guanine

Cytosine 

400

During this phase, the chromosomes divide and separate, moving to opposite ends of the cell

Anaphase

400

Where is the vacuole on this diagram? 


#4

500

The command center of the cell. It holds the DNA as well as the nuclear membranes that surround them. This is the site of cellular division as well. 

Nucleus

500

The green substance in plant cells that enable photosynthesis to happen

Chlorophyll

500

Attaches to cytosine in the DNA molecule. Its a purine which means it has 2 rings fused together. 

Guanine

500

Final phase of cell division where the organelles move to the new nuclei and the cell completes division by forming a plate between the two new complete cells.

Cytokinesis 

500

Where is the endoplasmic reticulum on here?
