What do plant cells need to grow?
Carbon dioxide
What is the role of the mitochondria?
Powerhouse of the cells
Provides a barrier between the cells internal and external environment
Cell membrane
How does Euglena move around?

What are eukaryotes known to?
Organisms whose cells contain a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles
What is the chemical found in chloroplasts?
Chlorophyll
What is the consistency of the cytoplasm
Jelly like fluid

Golgi Body
How does the Amoeba catch and digest its food?
It engulfs it with its pseudopod that encases the food in a food vacuole which contains digestive enzymes.
What cell has bacterial cells, prokaryotes or eukaryotes?
Prokaryotic cells
What is the role of the cell wall?
To provide structure rigidity and support.
What is the role of the cytoskeleton?
Provides the cell with shape/structure and enables it to move.
Contains DNA of the cell and is the brain of the cell
Nucleus
Which unicellular organisms has pseudopodia?
Amoeba
Are prokaryotes or eukaryotes more successful?

What is the role of chloroplast?
Convert sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water into glucose.
What structure moves large molecules into and out of the cell?
Channel proteins
Stores water
Vacuole
Are Unicellular organisms eukaryotes or prokaryotes?
Can be both
What is the DNA for prokaryotes and eukaryotes?
Prokaryotes: Double stranded
Eukaryotes: Double stranded and linear
What structure inside of the chloroplast traps sunlight?
The grana / thylakoid stacks
What is the function of the Ribosome?
Making proteins
Inside the cell membrane but outside of the nucleus
Cytoplasm
How does Paramecium move around?
Cilia which beat rhythmically.
