Viewing Cells
100
The smallest unit capable of performing life functions?
What is a cell?
100
Tough, rigid outer coverings that protect the cell and give it shape.
What are cell walls?
100
Green organelles in plant cytoplasm that make food
What are chloroplasts?
100
These organisms perform all their life functions by themselves.
What are one celled organisms?
100
This scientist, noticed cork (under a microscope) was made up of empty little boxes, which he called cells.
What is Robert Hooke?
200
This is known as the outer covering of a cell
What is the cell membrane?
200
Regulates interactions between the cell and the environment.
What is the cell membrane?
200
Organelles where energy is released from breaking down food into carbon dioxide and water.
What is mitochondria?
200
A group of similar cells that work together to do one job
What is a tissue?
200
States that all organisms are made up of one or more cells, that cell is the basic unit of life, and all cells come from other cells.
What is cell theory?
300
The gelatin like material inside every cell
What is cytoplasm?
300
Made up of thin, hollow tubes of protein and thin, solid protein fibers. Also helps the cell maintain or change its shape.
What is the cytoskeleton?
300
Small structure where cells make their own proteins.
What is a ribosome?
300
A structure made up of two or more different types of tissues that work together
What is an organ?
300
Similar to a magnifying glass, this microscope only has one lens.
What is a simple microscope?
400
Cells without membrane bound structures
What are prokaryotic cells?
400
A structure that processes energy and manufacture substances needed by the cell or other cells.
What is an organelle?
400
A series of folded membranes in which materials can be processed and moved around inside the cell.
What is the endoplasmic reticulum?
400
A group of organs working together to perform a certain function.
What is an organ system?
400
This microscope has two sets of lenses- eyepiece and objective.
What is a compound light microscope?
500
Cells with membrane-bound structures
What are eukaryotic cells?
500
Directs all cell activities and is separated from the cytoplasm by a membrane
What is the nucleus?
500
Stacked, flattened membranes that sort proteins and other cellular substances and package them into vesicles.
What are golgi bodies?
500
Organelles that contain digestive chemicals that help break down molecules, cell wastes, and worn out cell parts
What are lysosomes?
500
This microscope shows us things that are too small to be seen with a regular microscope.
