Cell Theory
According to cell theory, all living things are made of this
other cells
both
Clear gel-like fluid in cells that holds the organelles.
cytoplasm
Organelle in plants that uses light energy to make glucose in a process called photosynthesis.
chloroplast
Animal cells do not have this rigid structure.
cell wall
The basic unit of life.
cells
all eukaryotes have a nucleus. True or false?
True
Breaks down food into usable energy in a process called cellular respiration.
mitochondria
Packages and modifies proteins.
golgi apparatus
E. coli is a bacteria that normally lives in your intestines. Most strains are usually harmless. A few strains cause diarrhea/bloody diarrhea, vomiting and stomach pains and cramps. One strain can lead to kidney failure if not properly managed. Which type of cells (prokaryote or eukaryote) and how does it reproduce?
Bacteria is a unicellular, prokaryotic organism. It reproduces asexually called binary fission.
How many parts are there to the Cell Theory?
3
what kind of cells fall under the category of prokaryotic cells? Name an example of a prokaryotic organism
unicellular. bacteria
Network of proteins found within the cytoplasm for support and structure.
cytoskeleton
Storage for the cell.
vacuole.
List 2 differences between the smooth and rough ER
1. Smooth- makes lipids and does not contain ribosomes on surface. Hugs the rough ER
2. Rough- makes proteins and has ribosomes on its surface. It hugs the nucleus.
State the three fundamental parts of the cell theory.
1. All living things are made of one or more cells
2. Cells are the basic unit of life
3. All cells come from other cells
Sreptococcus (think strep throat)
prokaryote (bacteria)
What are Amino Acids? (Think back to Unit 1!)
monomer of proteins. connected together by peptide bonds in a chain.
Long hair-like projection used for movement in cells; uses a whip-like motion.
flagella
Explain the difference between the nucleolus and the nucleus. Be sure to include their location and function in your answer.
Fill in the blank: cells make up tissues which make up organs. Organs make up ________ _______.
organ systems.
Both. Hydrophilic head and hydrophobic lipid tails. Makes the membrane selectively permeable.
Many hair-like organelles that aid in cell movement
cilia
Transports proteins throughout the cell.
vesicle
List at least 2 structures that distinguish plant cells from animal cells.
Plant cells have cell walls, central vacuoles, and chloroplasts.
Animal cells have centrioles, lysosomes, cilia, and flagella.
