Cell
- A structural layer surrounding the cell membrane of certain cells.
Cell Wall
- A theory that living organisms can reproduce from nonliving matter.
Spontaneous Generation
- Little kidney-shaped organelles, which convert nutrients & oxygen into energy.
Mitochondria
- A long, thin "tail" which extends from the plasma membrane into the environment outside the cell.
Flagellum
- An infectious agent of DNA or RNA
Virus
- A thin layer that separates compartments within a cell or between a cell and the external environment.
Membrane
- When yeast induces alcohol in the media in which it grows.
Fermentation
- Organelles that contain enzymes that break down the organelle.
Lysosome
- Eukaryotes that constitute a group of mostly microscopic plants.
Algae
- An organism that harbors another organism, on it or close by, in a symbiotic relationship.
Host
- A gel-like substance that makes up a large portion of the cell volume.
Cytoplasm
- The basis for the structure & organization we see in living organisms, cells always come from other preexisting cells, & cells are generated by other cells.
Cell Theory
- A protective layer that surrounds the cell membrane in some cell types
Cell Wall
- Green pigmentation inside the leaf cells enables its processor, under the action of sunlight, to make sugar for food.
Chlorophyll
- A protein produced by the body's immune system to defend the body
Antibodies
-Cells with all the structures (essentially all other living things).
Eukaryotic Cells
Diffusion
- Organelles that are one of the few that lack a membrane & are scattered throughout the cell or attached to a specialized organelle called the Endoplasmic Reticulum
Ribosome
- A single-celled individual that does not form colonies.
Yeast
- An organism's ability to defend itself from harmful diseases
Immunity
- Cells that lack a nucleus & other membranous structures (bacteria & archaea).
Prokaryotic Cells
- The diffusion or absorption of water through a semi-permeable surface
Osmosis
- A small bubble of membrane with substances stored inside.
Vesicle
Cilia
- A substance that responds to the body when there is a foreign matter, which produces antibodies.
