Type of Cell
This type of cell is always unicellular.
What is a prokaryotic cell?
This is where eukaryotic cells store their genetic information.
What is a nucleus?
What are the two main types of cell division?
What are mitosis and meiosis?
All living things have this. In Eukaryotes, it is located in the nucleus of each cell.
What is a universal genetic code (DNA)?
This man discovered plants are made of cells.
Who is Matthias Schleiden?
This type of cell contains chloroplasts and a cell wall.
What is a plant cell?
Cells use this to control the flow of materials in and out of the cell in order to maintain homeostasis.
What is the cell membrane?
This type of cell division is a two-stage process.
What is Meiosis?
The three parts of this are:
1. All living things are made of cells.
2. Cells are the basic unit of life.
3. All cells come from pre-existing cells.
What is Cell Theory?
This man discovered that animals are made of cells.
Who is Theodor Schwann?
These types of cells are defined by having a "true nucleus."
What is a eukaryotic cell?
This organelle takes in proteins and modifies them for other uses around the cell.
What is the Golgi Apparatus (Golgi body)?
In this phase of cell division, the chromosomes are in a straight line down the middle of the cell.
What is Metaphase?
This is an organism's ability to maintain a stable internal environment.
What is homeostasis?
This was the first person to observe bacteria cells with a microscope.
Who was Anton Van Leeuwenhoek?
These types of cells have always have centrioles, which are used in cell division.
What are animal cells?
Both of these organelles are related to life function of needing energy within the cell.
What are chloroplasts and mitochondria?
What is crossover?
This is a group of tissues all working together to serve the same purpose.
What is an organ?
This was the person who noticed that plants have unique structures under a microscope. He called them "cells."
Who is Robert Hooke?
Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells have these three components.
What are a plasma (cell) membrane, cytoplasm, and ribosomes?
These two organelles both help plants stand up straight.
What is the vacuole and Cell Wall?
This type of cell division occurs all over the body of multicellular organisms.
What is mitosis?
This is a group of organs working together to accomplish one life process within an organism.
What is an organ system?
This scientist found proof for the third part of cell theory: all cells come from preexisting cells.
Who is Rudolf Virchow?
