Who was Robert Hooke.
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 responsible for creating the energy the cell needs to function?
What is the mitochondria.
This occurs when particles of a substance move from where there are many particles to where there are few particles?
What is diffusion.
Who proposed that all cells come from pre-existing cells?
Who was Rudolf Virchow.
This organelle directs cell processes by providing DNA instructions. It is surrounded by its own membrane and is covered with pores?
What is the nucleus.
This organelle is responsible for dictating what enters and exits the cell?
What is the Cell membrane.
