100

This bilayer (made of lipids and proteins) surrounds the outside of all cells.

cell membrane

100

the smallest unit considered living

cell

PLANT    ANIMAL    BACTERIA

       Which are prokaryotes?

BACTERIA

100

This organelle is found in plants and contains the enzymes for photosynthesis

chloroplast

100

smallest unit of matter

atom

200

This organelle is the “control center” of the cell and contains its DNA.

nucleus

200

making more of a species

reproduction

200

The layer found outside of the cell membrane in plants and bacteria.

Cell Wall

200

This organelle contains DNA in eukaryotic cells

nucleus

200

a group of molecules make up these subcellular structures

organelles

300

This organelle is the “power plant” of the cell burning glucose and storing its energy as ATP.

mitochondrion

300

genetic code found in all organisms

DNA

300

The organelle that acts as a storage space. It is larger and generally filled with water in plant cells and is smaller in animal cells.

vacuole

300

The series of internal membrane used for transporting proteins from the ribosome to the Golgi

Endoplasmic Reticulum  (ER)

300

the lowest level that includes biotic and abiotic factors

ecosystem

400

These read code from DNA to correctly assemble proteins

ribosomes

400
an environmental factor to which an organism responds

stimulus

400

PLANT    ANIMAL    BACTERIA

      

     Which have a cell membrane?

All do 

400

The small dots on the rough endoplasmic reticulum or floating in the cytoplasm that are involved in assembling amino acids into proteins are known as

ribosomes

400

a group of cells that work together

tissue

500

This is a sac of digestive enzymes

lysosomes

500

Maintaining a stable internal environment despite external changes

homeostasis

500

PLANT    ANIMAL    PROTIST BACTERIA  FUNGI

      

      Which type of cells have a nucleus?

Plants, animals, protists, and fungi are all eukaryotes and so have a nucleus and other membrane bound organelles

500

This organelle looks like a stack of pancakes and modifies, sorts, and packages molecules for storage or export.

Golgi

500

a group of organisms of the same species that live in a given area
