Cells and Organelles

Cell Theory

100

This man coined the term "cell" and was the first to publish a depiction of a microorganism

Who was Robert Hooke?

200

This cell type contains a nucleus and organelles (such as mitochondria).

What are eukaryotic cells?

300

The idea that living organisms can arise from nonliving matter.

What is Spontaneous Generation?

400

This cell type has no nucleus or other organelles. Bacteria are an example of this cell type.

What is a prokaryotic cell?

500

list each statement of the cell theory... list the 3 statements

1. All living things are made of cells. 2. Cells are the basic unit of life. 3. Cells only come from other cells.

Microscopy

100

an optical instrument with a single convex lens that magnifies an object

What is a Simple Microscope?

200

A type of high-powered optical microscope that uses a system of two or more lenses, an objective lens and an eyepiece, to achieve high magnification

What is a compound microscope?

300

This is the name of the microscope lens that you look through

What is the Ocular lens?

400

The microscope component that controls the amount of light entering the field of view.

What is the diaphragm?

500

These are the three total magnifications for the objective lenses on the microscopes used in class

What are 40X, 100X, and 400X?

Organelles1

100

This fills the space inside a cell. It is semi-fluid and is composed of water and dissolved materials.

What is cytoplasm?

200

This organelle directs cell processes by providing DNA instructions. It is surrounded by its own membrane and is covered with pores.

What is the nucleus?

300

This organelle is a series of flattened membranes. Cell products pass through these membranes and become packaged for delivery in or out of the cell.

What is the Golgi apparatus

400

This organelle is a series of interconnected passageways. Proteins and lipids are synthesized (put together) here also. There are two varieties 'S' and 'R'.

What is the endoplasmic reticulum?

500

List the 3 organelles found in ALL cells

What are ribosomes, the cell membrane, and cytoplasm?

Organelles 2

100

This organelle provides the cell with the ATP it needs to perform its functions and activities.

What is the mitochondria?

200

Which one is NOT found in animal cells: Mitochondria, chloroplast, ribosome, nucleus:

What is Chloroplast?

300

This organelle is responsible for breaking down waste materials and cellular debris using digestive enzymes

What is a lysosome?

400

These can be found floating freely in the cytoplasm or attached to the rough ER, and they’re responsible for building proteins.

What are Ribosomes?

500

This network of protein filaments provides structural support in a cell and aids in cell movement

What is the cytoskeleton?

Bonus

100

This organelle is large and central in plant cells but small and scattered in animal cells.

What is the vacuole?

200

True or False: Mitochondrion are found in all cells

What is False?

300

This structure is found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, it controls what enters and leaves the cell.

What is the cell membrane?

400

In prokaryotic cells, this region contains the cell’s DNA but is not surrounded by a membrane

What is the nucleoid region?

500

These microscopes use electrons instead of light, letting scientists see things much smaller and in more detail

What are electron microscopes?
