100
The "control center" of the cell that directs all cell functions.
What is the nucleus.
100
Lysosomes, which help to break down waste products, are found in these kind of cells.
What are animal cells.
100
Where photosynthesis occurs.
What are chloroplasts.
100
Cellular Respiration begins in the cytoplasm, but mainly occurs in this organelle.
What are mitochondria.
100
All organic compounds contain this element.
What is carbon.
200
These organelles are known as the "powerhouses" of the cell because they produce most of the cells energy.
What is mitochondria.
200
Animal cells can not perform photosynthesis because they lack these organelles.
What are chloroplasts.
200
The products of photosynthesis.
What are oxygen and glucose/sugar.
200
The products of cellular respiration.
What are carbon dioxide, water, and energy.
200
Sugar and starches are examples of this organic compound.
What are carbohydrates.
300
It controls what materials enter and exit the cell. All cells have one.
What is the cell membrane.
300
All plant cells have this organelle. IF an animal cell has these, they are much smaller than in plant cells.
What is a vacuole.
300
The reactants (raw materials) of photosynthesis.
What are carbon dioxide and water.
300
The raw materials (reactants) of cellular respiration.
What are glucose (sugar) and oxygen.
300
Two examples of this organic compound are deoxyribonucleic acid and ribonucleic acid.
What are nucleic acids.
400
This network of passageways carries materials from one part of the cell to another.
What is the endoplasmic reticulum.
400
Both plant cells and animal cells must perform this function in order to obtain energy.
What is cellular respiration.
400
The tiny openings in leaves that allow carbon dioxide to enter, and oxygen to be released.
What are stomata.
400
DAILY DOUBLE. Explain why photosynthesis and respiration are considered opposite processes.
Photosynthesis begins with carbon dioxide and water, which are end products of cellular respiration, and photosynthesis produces glucose and oxygen, which are the raw materials of respiration.
400
These important proteins help speed up chemical reactions.
What are enzymes.
500
These organelles receive proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum, package them, and distribute them to other parts of the cell.
What are golgi bodies.
500
A rigid structure that protects and supports plant cells.
What is the cell wall.
500
The pigment in chloroplasts that captures energy in sunlight.
What is chlorophyll.
500
Both heterotrophs and autotrophs rely on the process of cellular respiration to create this so that they can function and grow.
What is energy.
500
This group of similar cells work together to perform a specific function.
What are tissues.
