Chloroplast
Red Blood Cells
During the healing process, what happens in the body that causes swelling.
Increase blood flow to the site of the injury
The name for cells that have specific jobs
Specialized cells
What is the name for the science class where you learn about living organisms, structure, function, and growth?
Biology
This structure, found in plant cells, is a stiff layer that gives the cell shape and support.
Cell Wall
A jelly like substance inside the cell where organelles are found. Both plant and animals have this structure.
Cytoplasm
How do white blood cells help with the healing process?
White blood cells fight off infection and disease. (examples: fight off bacteria, viruses, fungi)
This type of cell builds and maintain a skeleton that provides support and structure to the body.
Bone Cells
Geology
This structure controls what enters and leaves the cells and helps protect it.
Cell Membrane
This is the part of blood that helps stop bleeding by forming clots.

Astronomy
Nucleus
A small structure inside a cell that has a special job like making energy or proteins
Organelle
What do cells need in order to grow and make more of themselves?
Nutrients
This type of cell contracts to produce force and enable movement.
Muscle Cells
In this type of science, you learn about atoms, molecules, matter, energy, phase changes, and reactions.
Chemistry
This structure makes energy for the cell to use. They are the powerhouses of the cell.
Mitochondria
A simple cell that does not have a nucleus. Bacteria are an example
Prokaryote
What is the name of the process where cells make copies of themselves?
Mitosis
This a category of complex cells "do" have a nucleus. Examples of these type of cells are plants, animals, and fungi
