Characteristics Of Life
The basic unit of living things.
What is the cell?
This organelle contains the DNA in Eukaryotes.
What is the nucleus?
This organ filters blood.
What are the kidneys?
The function of this system is to break down food into easily absorbed components.
What is the digestive system?
This type of cell includes Bactria, they don't have a nucleus.
What are prokaryotes?
All livings thins are made of at least one of these.
What are cells?
The organelle that regulates what enters and leaves the cell.
What is the cell membrane?
Blood is this type of tissue.
What is connective tissue?
This organ system brings oxygen into the body, and removes carbon dioxide. It works with the circulatory system.
What is the Respiratory System?
This level is made of tissues working together.
What are organs?
This characteristic of living things can involve sending copies of DNA to offspring.
What is reproduction?

What is the cell wall?
The main tissue type of the heart.
What is muscular tissue? (Myocardial Tissue)
The organ system that includes the kidneys, bladder and ureter.
What is the urinary or excretory system?
This is one complete living thing.
What is an organism?
The protein is stored in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells, or as a loop in prokaryotic cells, and controls how the cell grows and develops.
What is DNA?
This organelle acts like the pantry of a kitchen, storing food and water.
What is the vacuole?
This is the largest organ in the human body.
What is the skin?
This organ system send electrical signals to other parts of the body.
What is the nervous system?
The levels of organization, from simplest to most complex.
What are cells, tissues, organs, organ systems and organisms?
This is the part of Eukayortic cells that converts Sugar into energy (metabolism) to meet the needs of the living cell.
What is the mitochondria?
This organelle is found in plant cells, and makes food (sugar).
What are chloroplasts?
This plant organ contains chloroplasts in its cells, to make food for the plant.
What is a leaf?
This organ system provides chemical signals to the body.
What is the endocrine system?
The types of cells form multi-cellular, complex organisms
What are eukaryotic cells?
