And you are...?
100

The smallest unit of life.

What are cells?

100

The two categories of cells.

What are prokaryotic and eukaryotic? 

100

Two parts: The type of microscope we used in lab (name?) allowed us to see (living OR dead) cells.

What are: light microscope & living cells?

100

Chemical bonds gain, lose, and transfer this subatomic particle. 

What are electrons?

100

This is the atomic number of the element above.

What is 6? (Carbon: 6p+)

200

The largest level of organization we discussed.

What is the biosphere?

200

The TWO places DNA is located in eukaryotic cells.  

The nucleus and ribosomes. 

200

The difference of an object/structure compared to those in the same field of view.

What is contrast?

200

This is the difference between an anion and a cation. 

anion: a negative ion

cation: positive ion

200

The name & function of organelle #4.

Name: Central vacuole 

Function: water storage  

300

The THREE levels of organization below an organism.

What are organ system, organs, and tissues?

300

This organelle is the powerhouse of the cell.

What is mitochondria?

300

The ability to see fine detail; a measure of clarity. 

What is resolution?

300

The mass number of an atom with 3 protons, 4 neutrons, and 3 electrons. 

What is 7? (add 3p+ and 4n = 7)

300

This is the name of organelle #5.

What is endoplasmic reticulum? 

400

The definition of biology.

What is the scientific study of life?

400

These FOUR components are the same in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.

What are: ribosomes, DNA, cytoplasm, and plasma membrane?

400

This type of microscopy uses specific molecules that can show different cellular components (e.g., structures, protein, organelles).

What is fluorescence microscopy? 

400

This is the number of single covalent bonds Oxygen (atomic number: 8) can have. 

What is two?

400

This is the name & function of organelle #6.

Name: Golgi apparatus

Function: factory - shipping, receiving, and sorting of vesicles  

500
All levels of biological organization from smallest to largest.

What are: atom, molecule, cell, tissue, organ, organ system, organism, population, community, ecosystem, biosphere?

500

Name TWO tenets of the Cell Theory. 

  1. Every living organism consists of one or more cells.

  2. The cell is the basic structural and functional unit of life. Cells are individually alive even as part of a multi-celled organism.

  3. All living cells arise by division of preexisting cells.

  1. Cells contain hereditary material (DNA), which they pass to their offspring during processes of reproduction. 

500

This image was taken with a/an ____________ microscope. 

What is an electron microscope?

500

This is the definition of a hydrogen bond.

What is: a weak attractive force between a hydrogen atom and either an oxygen or nitrogen atom that are in other molecules or within the same molecule.

500

The type of bond shown between two elements (explain).

What is an ionic bond? This is because an electron is being transferred (stolen) from one element to a more electromagnetic element.
