This man observed cork with his microscope and called the tiny boxes 'cells'

Who was Robert Hooke

100

This property of the cell membrane allows some things to enter/leave the cell, and blocks other things from doing so.

What is selective permeability?

100

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

What is cytoplasm?

100

How did the vinegar get rid of the egg shell? 

What is - the acid dissolved it? 

100

This occurs when particles of a substance move from where there are many particles to where there are few particles.

What is diffusion?

200

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

What are eukaryotic cells?

200

The part of the phospholipid that 'loves' water

What is the hydrophilic head?

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?

200

Why did the egg in the water gain mass? 

What is the water was hypotonic to the egg. Water entered the egg and the egg gained mass?

200

This process involves the movement of water from high to low water concentration 

What is osmosis? 

300

Anton Van Leewenhoek was the first to do what?  

What are living cells/living organisms?

300

This process involves food or another substance entering a cell or organism 

What is endocytosis? 

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 ?

300

Why did the egg in the corn syrup lose mass? 

What is the corn syrup is hypertonic to the egg. Water leaves the egg and the egg shrinks, loses mass. 

300

When a cell is placed into this type of solution, the cell would expand

What is hypotonic? 

400

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

What is a prokaryotic cell?

400

What kind of cells have cell membranes? 

Plant cells, animal cells or both? 

What are all cells? 

400

This organelle is a series of interconnected passageways. Proteins are transported through these

What is the endoplasmic reticulum?

400

This substance diffused out of the bag in beaker A

What is glucose? 

400
This process requires energy and involves the movement of molecules from low to high concentration

What is active transport? 

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.

500

How many layers of phospholipids are there in the cell membrane? 

What are two? 

500

This organelle is found only in animal cells. It is made of microtubules and is involved with cell division.

What are centrioles?

500

Describe completely what happened to beaker B ? 

What is : The iodine diffused into the bag and mixed with the starch and turned blue-black. The starch stayed in the bag b/c it is too large to pass across the membrane. 

500

State the complete scientific reason why salty/spicy foods make your thirsty

What is .....

Salty food is hypertonic to cells. Osmosis occurs. Water leaves cells, cells shrink. Brain tells you that you are thirsty.
