100
Biological “instructions” making a section of DNA like the rungs on a ladder, forming a code.

What are genes?

100

This part of the cell holds DNA.

What is the nucleus?

100

The element found in all organic compounds.

What is carbon?

100

This type of cell is surrounded by a cell wall and contains a giant vacuole to store water and other materials.

What is a plant cell?

100

These two organelles/cell parts are not found in animal cells.

What are the cell wall and chloroplasts?

200

Cells that contain two sets of chromosomes.

What are diploid cells?

200
This organelle takes in sugar and makes chemical energy a cell can use. It has an inner and outer membrane and also has its own DNA!
What is a mitochondrion?
200

The chemical formula for glucose or fructose.

What is C6H12O6?

200
These all have a nucleus.
What is a eukaryote?
200
Water can move through a cell membrane by this process.
What is osmosis?
300
Haploid cells created by Meiosis.

What are gametes?

300
This organelle contains the green pigment, chlorophyll, and uses the sun's energy to turn water and carbon dioxide into sugar for use later.
What is a chloroplast?
300

These join together through a peptide bond, releasing water or H2O, to be the building blocks of a major class of organic compounds.

What are amino acids?

300

These cells are much smaller than animal or plant cells. They do not contain a nucleus.

What are prokaryotes?

300
This is the process that requires energy to move a substance across a cell membrane in the direction it does not tend to go.
What is active transport?
400

The stages of Mitosis.

What are Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase?
400

This organelle receives parts of proteins, modifies, finishes, sorts, packages them, then sends them out in vescicles for transport towards the cell membrane.

What is the Golgi apparatus?

400

Class of organic compounds that has the most energy per gram.

What are lipids?

400

Maintained by central vacuoles pressing against the cell wall keeping the cell rigid.

What is turgor pressure?

400
This is the name for the process in which cell membranes regulate what enters and leaves the cell to keep a "steady internal state" inside a changing system.
What is homeostasis?
