Cells are made of organelles
An organism composed of only one cell
What is unicellular?
A plant bending towards the light is an example of what characteristic of living things?
What is response to stimuli?
This organelle directs cell processes by providing DNA instructions.
What is the nucleus?
This is a structure inside a cell that performs specific functions for the cell
What is an organelle?
This type of cell looks like a brick wall under a microscope. Very uniform shape, stacked together
What is a plant cell?
This cell type contains a nucleus and organelles (such as mitochondria).
What are eukaryotic cells?
Type of reproduction that involves two parents and offspring has a mix of genetics from both parents
Sexual Reproduction
What is the cell membrane?
This organelle is the outer layer on an animal cell but the second layer on a plant cell
What is the cell membrane?
This is the type of cells that make up bacteria
What are prokaryotic cells?
An example of this type of cells is bacteria. DNA is free floating in the cytoplasm
What are Prokaryotic Cells?
The ability to maintain internal conditions when external conditions change.
What is maintaining homeostasis?
This is the organelle that contains chlorophyll and makes the plant cell green
What are chloroplasts?
This is the organelle that performs photosynthesis for plants
What is the chloroplast?
Under a microscope this type of cell will have the nucleus in the middle and might be spread out and irregular shaped
What are animal cells?
An organism composed of more than one cell
What is multicellular?
Organisms that are living require energy. How does this process look different in plants and animals?
Plants perform photosynthesis and animals eat to get energy
This is the organelle that turns glucose into ATP energy
What are mitochondria?
This organelle is made of cellulose and keeps the plant cells rigid and upright
What is the cell wall?
These types of cells look different depending on their function. Examples: nerve cell, lung cell
What are specialized cells?
Three parts of the cell theory
1. All living things are made of cells. 2. Cells are the basic unit of life. 3. Cells only come from preexisting cells.
Growth in unicellular organisms is __________________ and growth in multicellular organisms is ________________
What is the single cell grows larger and gains more cells
Some things can enter and leave, but not everything
What are cell walls and chloroplasts?
This is the type of cells found in fungi
What are eukaryotic cells?
