Irreducibly
All cells have a ______ membrane
cell

It needs all of its parts to function.
2
The nucleus contains your g____________ information in the form of DNA
Genetic
Prokaryotic cells lack a ______________ and other membrane bound organelles. They typically consist of single celled bacteria.
nucleus
This organelle is considered to be the powerhouse of the cell.
Mitochondria
True or false? Irreducible complexity proves evolution is true
False, irreducible complexity proves evolution is impossible.
Phospholipids have heads that are attracted to water or are water loving. The word used to describe this is h___________.
hydrophilic
The nucleus is said to be calling the shots, but what have we seen taking place that reveals this isn't the case?
Cell division and the nucleus being pulled apart.
Eukaryotic
This organelle is said to be the brain of the cell. We now know this isn't the case, but it does contain genetic information that will eventually be condensed into chromosomes before it is pulled apart with cell division.
Nucleus
Example: A mouse trap because it needs all of its parts.
The tails of the phospholipids are water fearing which is called h_______________
