gel like substance inside the cell where most of the cell's activities take place
What is cytoplasm
200
structure that releases energy for the cell. "POWERHOUSE"
What is mitocondria
200
thick outer layer that surrounds the cell membranes of plants and some simple organisms
What is cell wall

What is stage 1 of mitosis and what happens here
What is prophase. the cells begin to divide
200
What is photosynthesis?
What is food making process in plants and other organisms that use sunlight
300
the control center of the cell
What is nucleous
300
small network of tubes that carry substances. Act as the super highway for the cell.
What is endoplasmic reticulum
300
organelle in a plant cell that contains chlorophyll
What is chloroplast

What is stage 2
What is metaphase
In this stage the chromosomes line up across the center of the cell and become connected to the spindle fiber

During this process glucose is broken down into hydrogen and carbon molecules. They combine to form carbon dioxide and water.

WHat is step 3
What is Anaphase In this stage the sister chromatids separate into individual chromosomes and are pulled apart.
400
movement of material from an area where molecules are crowded to an area where they are less crowded
What is diffusion
500
small structure that breaks down nutrient molecules and old cell parts. The "clean up crew"
What is lysosomes
500
organelle that packages and send material to other places in the cell
What is golgi bodies

What is the cell theory?
What is 1. all living things are made of cells
2. cells are the basic units of structure and function in living things. 3. living cells come only from other living cells.

What is stage 4?
What happens after mitosis
What is telophase.
the cell division is complete
500
cell parts that determine what traits a living thing will have
