The animal cell lacks a cell wall but is surrounded by this

cell membrane

100

This structure which is not found in animal cells offers support and protection

cell wall

100

The cell membrane is semi-permeable, that means that it

Lets certain things in and keeps other things out

Where is Salmonella commonly found in animals?

in their guts

200

This organelle is responsible for modifying, sorting, and packaging proteins and lipids for secretion or delivery to other organelles.

golgi body

200

Though found in animal cells, this structure is much larger in plant cells. It helps with food/water storage

vacuole

200

Where are ribosomes found in the cell?

Attached to the rough ER or floating in the cytoplasm

In bowling, three strikes in a row is called a _____

Turkey

How do viruses reproduce? 

Viruses reproduce by infecting a host cell. They attach to the cell, enter it, and use the cell's machinery to replicate their genetic material and proteins. New viruses are then assembled inside the cell and released to infect more cells, often killing the host cell in the process.

Often referred to as the powerhouse, this organelle is responsible for cellular respiration and the production of ATP

mitochondria

300

This organelle converts radiant energy of the sun into chemical energy through the process of photosynthesis

chloroplast

Describe the nucleolus. Where it's located and what it does

Inside the nucleus and makes ribosomes

What kind of bacteria is comma shaped?

Vibrio

400

These organelles contain hydrolytic enzymes that break down waste materials and cellular debris.

Lysosome

400

This large organelle contains the cell's genetic material and controls many of the cell's activities.

nucleus

400

This organelle is responsible for making lipids (fats) and detoxification. It has a pimply cousin. 

Smooth ER

What was the first Pixar film to be made?

a) Cars

b) Ratatouille

c) Bug's Life

d) Toy Story

d) Toy Story

500

Are viruses alive? Explain why or why not

Although viruses exhibit some characteristics of life, such as genetic material and the ability to evolve, but they lack other key features like cellular structure, independent metabolism, and self-replication. Consequently, many scientists consider viruses to be complex molecular machines rather than living organisms.

Your team has 90 seconds to draw and label a plant cell. Make sure to include: nucleus, ERs, chloroplast, central vacuole, cell membrane, cell wall, ribosomes, mitochondria, cytoplasm, golgi body. Organelles need to look correct and the diagram needs to include all the labels, otherwise the question will go to the other teams.
