Factory Basics
100
Protective layer found in every cell
Cell Membrane
100

Gelatin like substance that flows in the cell and keeps the organelles suspended

Cytoplasm

100

The DNA of the cell is contained here

Nucleus

100
A ribbon-like system that delivers substances from one part of the cell to another.

Endoplasmic Reticulum

100

The smallest functioning unit of a living thing

Cell

200

This protective layer decides what comes in and out of a cell

Cell Membrane

200

When only certain molecules can pass through the membrane and certain molecules can't

Selective Permeability

200

The organelle that manufactures proteins

Ribosomes

200
The DNA of a cell is located here.
Nucleus
200

The cells that make up our bodies and have a "True Nucleus"

Eukaryotes

300

Gives plant cells shape 

Cell Wall

300

The movement of substances through a membrane without the use of the cell's energy

Passive Transport

300

The powerhouse of the cell

Mitochondria

300

Filled with enzymes, theses organelles dissolve away unneeded cell structures and foreign substances.

Lysosomes

300

This organelle uses sunlight to make food for the cell and is only found in plant cells

Chloroplast

400

Three things found in a plant cell that are not in an animal cell.

Chloroplast, Cell Wall, Large Water Vacuole
400

Requires the cell to use its own energy to move substances through a membrane

Active Transport

400

Chemicals are packaged here and sent around the cell and sometimes transported across the membrane

Golgi Apparatus 

400

This organelle uses sunlight to make food for the cell and is only found in plant cells. 

Chloroplast

400

The idea that a cell cannot be reduced to something less complex and still function properly

Irreducible Complexity.

500

Gooey slime on the outside of some bacteria to protect cell from harmful substances and from drying out

Capsule
500

DAILY DOUBLE


The diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane.

Osmosis

500

Where the animal cell stores its food, water, proteins, fat and wastes.

Vacuoles

500

Hair-like structures that function in movement

Cilia and Flagella

500

Daily Double


The scientist that became the first to view cells by grinding his own hand-ground lenses

Anton van Leeuwenhoek
