Cells

100

I am the "control" center of the cell.  I directs all of the cells activities.  

Nucleus

200

If I don't have ribosomes attached to me, I am called what?

Smooth ER

300

I am a very large structure in a plant cell and I store water, food and other materials

I am the central vacuole.

400

I clean up the cell like Lysol cleans up our homes.

I am a lysosome

500

What 3 things does the plant cell have that are different from an animal cell?  3 C's

central vacuole, cell wall, chloroplast

Cell 2

100

My cell type does NOT have a nucleus so my DNA roams around in the cell.  I am unicellular and one example of me is a bacterial cell.

Prokaryote

200

I am the jelly like fluid that fills the internal portion of a cell.  

Cytoplasm

300

I am the organelle that packages (proteins/lipids) and ships this out to the cell to be used as needed by the cell.

I am the golgi apparatus

400

I have a nucleus that contains DNA and am more complex.  I am a plant and animal cell

Eukaryote

500

What 3 things do all cells have in common?

Cell membrane, DNA, cytoplasm.

Cell 3

100

I am the organelle that produces proteins.

I am the ribosome

200

I am the gatekeeper of the plant and animal cell....I have pores that allow oxygen, water and nutrients in and allow wastes to exit.

Cell Membrane

300

I am the genetic information that is contained inside the nucleus.  I have a long name, but I am identified by 3 letters.

DNA

400

I am the "powerhouse" for the cell.  I take in glucose and with oxygen, create energy for the cell.

Mitochondria

500

What three things do all cells need to stay healthy?

Water, oxygen and nutrients.

Cell 4

100

 I am a tranportER....I help make and transport proteins and other substances to the Golgi Apparatus.

ER

200

I am a rigid structure that protects the plant cell.  I am outside of the cell membrane and surround it.

I am the the cell wall.

300

I am a single celled organism.  I am an organism with only 1 cell.  What am I called?

Unicellular

400

I looked at a piece of cork under a microscope and decided what I saw, looked like cells.  So I named them "cells"

Robert Hooke

500

What is the process called that the mitochondria carry out to make energy from food?

Cellular Respiration

Cell 5

100

If I have ribosomes attached to me, I am called what?

Rough ER

200

I use sunlight plus oxygen and water to create food for a plant cell.  I am not in an animal cell.

I am a chloroplast.

300

I am made of many cells because I am an organism with many different functions.

I am a multicellular organism.

400

State the cell theory  (3 parts)

Cells are made from other cells

Cells are the basic unit of life

All living thing are made of cells

500

What is the process called that allows the plant cell to make it's own food?

Photosynthesis
