Cells
This cell type contains a nucleus and organelles (such as mitochondria).
What are eukaryotic cells?
This organelle is a series of flattened membranes. Cell products pass through these membranes and become packaged for delivery in or out of the cell.
What is the Golgi apparatus
Thread-like structures inside the nucleus of a cell that contain genetic information in the form of DNA. Humans have 23 pairs of them.
Where do you get your genes from?
Your parents
This green pigment helps plants make food using sunlight.
Chlorophyll
This cell type has no nucleus or other organelles. Bacteria are the only example of this cell type.
What is a prokaryotic cell?
This organelle is a series of interconnected passageways. Proteins and lipids are synthesized (put together) here also. There are two varieties 'S' and 'R'.
What is the endoplasmic reticulum?
What are proteins that package DNA
Histones
What is a DNA?
The genetic make-up of your body
These tiny building blocks make up all living things.

This organelle provides the cell with the ATP it needs to perform its functions and activities.
What is the mitochondria?
Double Helix
Adenine binds with ___ ?
Thymine
This system in your body fights off germs and keeps you healthy.
Immune System
This fills the space inside a cell. It is semi-fluid and is composed of water and dissolved materials.
What is cytoplasm?
These are made by the nucleolus and their function is to follow DNA instructions to make stuff. They are free-floating or may be found attached to the ER.
What are ribosomes?
What is the basic building block of DNA?
Nucleotide
Strand 1: ATCGCGTCGATCGA
Strand 2: ?
TAGCGCAGCTAGCT
This type of animal, like a frog, can live both in water and on land.
Amphibian
This organelle directs cell processes by providing DNA instructions. It is surrounded by its own membrane and is covered with pores.
What is the nucleus?
a semipermeable boundary that separates the interior of a cell from its outside environment
Cell membrane
The full name of DNA.
Deoxyribonucleic Acid
What are 2 external factors that could trigger mutations to occur?
Radiation and chemicals
This process lets plants turn sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide into sugar.
Photosynthesis
