100

Contains lysosomes.

What are animal cells?

100

This type of transport requires no energy and moves from a concentration of high to low. 

What is passive transport?

100

This is when there is more water and less solute, which may cause the cell to expand.

What is hypotonic? 

100

Proposed the part of the cell theory that says that cells come from pre-existing cells.

200

The function of lysosomes?

What is chemically breakdown molecules, like digestion?
200

contains chloroplasts.

What are plant cells?

200

This type of transport requires energy.

What is active transport?

200

When cells bring large molecules into the cell. 

What is endocytosis, specifically phagocytosis?

200

These two scientists proposed that cells are the basic unit of life and all living things are made of cells.

Who are Schwann and Schliedan?

200

A cell that requires MORE energy may be abundant in this organelle. 

What is mitochondria?

300

This is a tail-like structure that aids some bacteria in movement. 

what is the flagellum?

300

The main function of the rough ER?

What is protein synthesis?

300

Does not contain a nucleus and include things such as E. coli. 

What are bacteria?

300

Requires no energy and moves small particles across the plasma membrane. 

What is diffusion?
300

Cell drinking.

what is pinocytosis? 

300

Though it was without consent, this heroic woman made the biggest contribution towards cell research.

Who is Henrietta Lacks?

300

Can be called the bouncer of the cell, as it is what allows only certain things to move in and out.

What is the cell (plasma) membrane (phospholipid bilayer)? 

400

This keeps everything in the cell and allows for transport because it is semipermeable.

What is to enclose the nucleus?
400

Contains a nucleus.

What are eukaryotes?

400

The movement of water across the plasma membrane. 

What is osmosis?
400

Passive transport moves with this while active transport moves against it. 

What is the concentration gradient?

400

Proposed that eukaryotes first derived from prokaryotes.
