The most basic building block of life.
Cell
Which organelle (organ of a cell) allows nutrients into and the cell?
What is Cell Membrane (also Cell Wall in a plant cell)
The first thing that happens in cellular division is... and it happens in the nucleus.
The genetic code is duplicated in the nucleus.
Which body system regulates the exchange of oxygen for carbon dioxide in humans?
What is the respiratory system
What type of organisms are made up of many different types of cells, like we are?
What is multicellular organisms
The scientific term that describes the "job" or "purpose" of an organelle or cell.
Which organelle contains the Chromosomes (which contain the DNA or genetic code)?
Nucleus
After the genetic code on the chromosomes is duplicated in the nucleus, this happens in cellular division__________, before the cell splits.
The cell GROWS.
Which body system helps red blood cells carry oxygen to the cells throughout the body?
What type of organisms are made of only one cell, such as bacteria, algae, yeast, and Archea?
What are Unicellular organisms
The process of cells dividing and making new cells from existing cells when there is an injury to those cells.
Which structure do plants and bacteria have, that animal cells do not contain?
What is Cell Wall
As the cell grows, as a result of the extra copy of the genetic code, the new nuclei begin to...............
Move to opposite ends of the cell.
Which body system triggers hunger, tells us we have an itch, and lets us know when we have an injury?
Nervous System
Which cells in our body help fight infection?
White blood cells
A scientific term for a "baby" of any organism. Hint: It starts with an "o" and ends with a "g".
What is offspring
What organelle is duplicated in the process of cellular division which takes place to allow healing and growth?
What is Nucleus (chromosomes)
The final step in cellular division after the genetic code has been duplicated, the cell has grown, and the nuclei have moved to opposite ends of the cell is......
They split into two new identical cells to the old one they came from.
Which body system allows us to ingest food, and absorb nutrients to feed our cells?
Digestive system
Platelets
The term for a group of things working together to perform a specific function
Which organelle is known as the "Power House" of the cell, which converts food to energy for the cell?
TRUE OR FALSE: ALL cells use cellular division to reproduce- both unicellular and multicellular cells contain genetic information that is passed onto offspring.
TRUE
Skeletal system and muscular system
Why do all cells have a different shape and structure?
In order to support their function or job in an organism
