The Basics of Cells
According to the "Golden Rule of Biology," all living things are made of these.
What are cells?
This system acts as an alarm by sending pain signals to the brain.
What is the Nervous System?
This organelle is known as the "boss" of the cell.
What is the Nucleus?
The nucleus connects to this human body part because it controls activities.
What is the Brain?
This bone component produces red and white blood cells needed to fight infection.
What is marrow?
Muscle cells and bone cells look different because they have different ones of these.
What are functions?
This system rushes to an injury to form a clot and stop bleeding.
What is the Blood (or Circulatory) System?
This organelle surrounds the cell and controls what enters and exits.
What is the Cell Membrane?
The cell membrane is like this body part because it surrounds and protects the body.
What is the Skin?
The Circulatory System delivers these two things needed for repair to an injury site.
What is oxygen and nutrients?
Even though cells like muscle and bone cells look different, they still belong to this same basic category
What are cells?
This system is primarily responsible for repairing broken bones
What is the Skeletal System?
This organelle provides energy to the cell.
What is the Mitochondria?
The mitochondria is compared to this body system because it breaks down food for energy.
What is the Digestive System (or stomach)?
This term describes the concept that different cells have specific jobs, like muscle vs. bone cells.
What is Cell Specialization?
At the microscopic level, cells do this to replace damaged ones when you get hurt.
What is grow and divide?
This system repairs damaged tissue fibers and increases blood flow to speed up recovery
What is the muscular system?
This jelly-like substance holds organelles in place.
What is the Cytoplasm?
The cytoplasm is compared to this system because it transports nutrients.
What is the blood system?
The "Tiny Organs" inside a cell are scientifically called this.
What are Organelles?
This process relies on the interaction of multiple body systems to fix an injury.
What is wound healing?
This system rebuilds the outer barrier to lock in moisture and keep bacteria out.
What is the skin system?
This organelle is responsible for holding genetic information.
What is the Nucleus?
Just like an alarm system, this body system warns you of danger (pain)
What is the nervous system?
This system’s role involves locking in moisture and blocking harmful bacteria.
What is the Skin System?
