True or False – All living things are made of cells.
What is true
first used the word “cell” when looking at cork
Hooke
organelle is called the “powerhouse of the cell”
Mitochondria
controls what enters and leaves the cell
What is cell membrane
the smallest unit of life
Cell
one of the three parts of the Cell Theory.
Cells are the basic unit of life. All living things are made of cells. Cells come from other cells.
discovered tiny living organisms he called “animalcules”
Anton van Leeuwenhoek
organelle makes proteins
Ribosomes
structure gives plant cells their rigid shape
Cell wall
True or False – Plant and animal cells both have mitochondria.
true
added that all cells come from pre-existing cells
Virchow
stated that all plants are made of cells
Schleiden
organelle packages and ships proteins
Golgi apparatus
the jelly-like substance that holds organelles in place
Cytoplasm
organelle is in plant cells but not animal cells
Chloroplast or Cell wall
What does it mean that cells are the “basic unit of life”
They are the smallest unit that can carry out life processes
stated that all animals are made of cells?
Schwann
organelle digests old cell parts and waste
Lysosome
structure stores water, food, and waste
Vacuole
Explain one way plant and animal cells are alike, and one way they are different.
Both have nucleus, cytoplasm, mitochondria; only plants have cell wall and chloroplasts
Cell Theory important to biology
It provided a foundation to understand that all life is cellular, allowing advances in genetics, medicine, etc
three scientists are credited with forming the Cell Theory
Schleiden, Schwann, Virchow)
chloroplast
structure contains DNA
Nucleus
According to the cell theory, all living things are made of cells. If a scientist discovers a structure inside a cell that produces proteins, which organelle is it, and how does this support the cell theory?
What are ribosomes, because they show cells carry out the functions needed for life?
