True or False – All living things are made of cells.

What is true

100

 first used the word “cell” when looking at cork

Hooke

100

organelle is called the “powerhouse of the cell”

Mitochondria

100

controls what enters and leaves the cell

What is cell membrane

100

the smallest unit of life

Cell

200

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.

200

discovered tiny living organisms he called “animalcules”

Anton van Leeuwenhoek

200

organelle makes proteins

Ribosomes

200

structure gives plant cells their rigid shape

Cell wall

200

True or False – Plant and animal cells both have mitochondria.

true

300

added that all cells come from pre-existing cells

Virchow

300

stated that all plants are made of cells

Schleiden

300

organelle packages and ships proteins

Golgi apparatus

300

the jelly-like substance that holds organelles in place

Cytoplasm

300

organelle is in plant cells but not animal cells

Chloroplast or Cell wall

400

What does it mean that cells are the “basic unit of life”

They are the smallest unit that can carry out life processes

400

stated that all animals are made of cells?

Schwann

400

organelle digests old cell parts and waste

Lysosome

400

structure stores water, food, and waste

Vacuole

400

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

500

Cell Theory important to biology

It provided a foundation to understand that all life is cellular, allowing advances in genetics, medicine, etc

500

three scientists are credited with forming the Cell Theory

Schleiden, Schwann, Virchow)

500


chloroplast

500

structure contains DNA

Nucleus

500

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?
