Functions of Organelles
This is a jelly-like substance that supports and protects organelles in the cell.
What is cytoplasm?
This is the type of cell that contains membrane-bound organelles.
What is eukaryotic?
These are structures that the endosymbiotic theory explained the origin of.
What are mitochondria and chloroplasts?
This is the basic unit of structure and function in all living organisms.
What are cells?
Zr
Zirconium
These organelles produce proteins for the cell.
What are ribosomes?
This is the type of cell that contains DNA in its cytoplasm.
What is prokaryotic?
This discovery supported the endosymbiotic theory.
What is the discovery of DNA in mitochondria?
This is where cells were first identified by Robert Hooke.
What is cork bark?
Nb
Niobium
This organelle contains the DNA in eukaryotic cells.
What is the nucleus?
This is the type of cell that has a true nucleus.
What is eukaryotic?
This type of cell would be the result from endosymbiosis of a cell with a cyanobacterium.
What is a eukaryotic cell that makes its own food?
This is a type of DNA that can be traced back through generations.
What is mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA)?
Mo
Molybdenum
This is a nucleic acid that contains genetic information for heredity in most organisms.
What is DNA?
This is the type of cell that has DNA in its nucleus.
What is eukaryotic?
These are three areas of scientific investigation that have been affected by the discovery of mtDNA.
What are endosymbiotic theory, inheritance research, and forensic science?
This is the process of engulfing solid particles by the cell membrane to form an internal vacuole in the cell.
What is phagocytosis?
Tc
Technetium
This is an organelle that provides a protective layer around the cell and controls what enters and leaves the cell.
What is the cell membrane?
These are the structures found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.
What are DNA, ribosomes, cytoplasm and cell membrane?
This is a relationship in which one organism lives inside another organism.
What is endosymbiosis?
This is the type of cell that contains mitochondria.
What is eukaryotic?
Ru
Ruthenium
