I act as a gatekeeper, allowing certain materials to pass in and out of the cell
What is the cell membrane
100

This type of technology will allow people and families to learn more about their genetics and if they are at risk for any diseases 

What is DNA Testing

100
I am known as the suicide cell, attacking weak molecules and destroying them, along with myself.
What is the lysosome
100
Although you can pour water through a mesh screen, it does not allow small rocks to pass through. I am an example of this.
What is a selectively permeable material.
200
A fluid filled storage compartment that holds water and nutrients
What is the vacuole
200

This type of technology allows people who are injured or have a disease to allow the tissues and organs in their body to regrow if they have been damaged

What is stem cell technology

200
I am responsible for producing food inside plant cells.
What is the chloroplast
200

If water molecules pass from a jar of water and into an egg with no shell, we say the molecules have moved into an area of this...

What is an area of lower concentration

300
I am like the office of a school
What is the nucleus
300

This type of cell technology will allow scientists to see clear, high resolution images of different cells in the human body and ALL organelles found in these cells

What is the electron microscope

300
I protect the plant cell, helping to stop excess water from entering and causing the cell to burst.
What is the cell wall.
300
Molecules are able to move through fat layers in the cell membrabe because of these tiny "holes".
What are pores.
400
My job is to provide the cells with energy
What is the mitochondria
400

A disadvantage for using this type of cell technology puts pregnant mothers at risk of having a miscarriage or birth defects for their babies

What is IVF? (In-vitro fertilization)

400
Located in the nucleus, this structure contains the genetic information for the cell.
What are the chromosomes.
400
This is diffusion
What is the movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
500
Proteins are stored inside me, where I pack them into packages called vesicles.
What is the golgi apparatus
500

This cell technology uses a scientifc agent called methylene blue which is used to make cells and their organelles to be easily identified

What is cell staining

500
Although found in both the animal and plant cell, I am much larger within the plant cell.
What is the vacuole.
500
The outward pressure of water on the cell wall.
What is Turgor Pressure.
