Germ Theory
This theory posits that infectious diseases are caused by this one thing.
What are microbes?
Just like all humans need to breathe to survive, all cells must similarly do this.
What is cellular respiration?
Meaning "tiny organs," these are structures inside the cell that perform various functions.
What are organelles?
This word, literally translated to "cell goo," is the jelly like substance that all other organelles float in.
What is cytoplasm?
This is the species Mrs. Howard identifies as.
What is a dinosaur?
This tool is typically used to observe objects normally too small to see with the naked eye, like infectious microbes.
What is a microscope?
All cells come from this.
What are cells?
These parts are made up of groups of tissue to perform a function, usually as part of a system.
What are organs?
These organelles, often found in leaves, are responsible for the process of photosynthesis in plants.
What are chloroplasts?
This is Mrs. Matson's dog's name
Who is Milo?
This organ system is responsible for protecting the human body from invading microbes.
What is the immune system?
These cells DO contain a nucleus and other membrane bound organelles, which is handy because the first syllable of the word rhymes with "do."
What are eukaryotes?
This is a group of similar cells that work together, usually as part of an organ.
What is tissue
In eukaryotes, this organelle contains a cell's DNA and controls all of the cell's other functions.
What is a nucleus?
This is Mrs. Kramer's favorite football team.
Who are the Philadelphia Eagles?
While not effective against viruses or protists, antibiotics such as penicillin has saved millions from this infectious microbe.
What is bacteria?
Getting its namesake from the fact they often look like tiny rooms under a microscope, this is the basic unit of all life.
What is a cell?
When a group of similar types of this basic unit of life come together, they are called tissue.
What are cells?
Often called "the powerhouse of the cell," this organelle is responsible for processing sugar to create energy.
What is the mitochondria?
This is the date Mrs. Howard returns to the classroom.
When is March 25th?
While they are not made of cells and do not reproduce independently, some scientists assert viruses are alive because they contain this.
What is unique DNA?
These cells lack membrane bound organelles like a nucleus
What are prokaryotes?
This is a list of the levels of organization of an organism, from largest to smallest.
What is organ system, organ, tissue, cell, organelle?
This organelle, present in all cells, is responsible for protecting the cytoplasm and other organelles inside the cell.
What is the cell membrane?
These are the names of Mr. McLean's two daughters.
Who are Emilia and Juliette?
