Cells & Organelles
This organelle packages and ships proteins.
What is the Golgi body?
During this stage, chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell.
What is metaphase?
These blood vessels carry blood away from the heart.
What are arteries?
This organ churns food and uses acid to break it down.
What is the stomach?
The two large tubes that carry air into each lung.
What are the bronchi?
These cells have no nucleus and are found in bacteria.
What are prokaryotes?
The phase where the cell grows and copies DNA (not part of mitosis).
What is interphase?
These vessels carry blood back to the heart.
What are veins?
Tiny finger-like projections in the small intestine increase surface area.
What are villi?
Tiny air sacs where gas exchange happens.
What are the alveoli?
This organelle controls what enters and exits the cell.
What is the cell membrane?
Sister chromatids are pulled apart during this phase.
What is anaphase?
Tiny vessels where nutrients and gas exchange occur.
What are capillaries?
Stores bile until it’s needed.
What is the gallbladder?
A flap that prevents food from entering the trachea.
What is the epiglottis?
These organelles build proteins.
What are ribosomes?
This is the final step when the cell fully splits into two daughter cells.
What is cytokinesis?
This organ pumps blood throughout the body.
What is the heart?
Most chemical digestion occurs in this first part of the small intestine.
What is the duodenum?
The muscle that contracts to pull air into the lungs.
What is the diaphragm?
This plant organelle uses sunlight to make food.
What is the chloroplast?
Chromosomes condense, and spindle fibres begin to form.
What is prophase?
The fluid that transports oxygen, nutrients, wastes, and immune cells.
What is blood?
This system includes organs such as the liver, pancreas, and gallbladder, but not the actual digestive tract.
What is the accessory organ system?
Smaller branches inside the lungs that connect to the alveoli.
What are the bronchioles?
