Cell Facts
100
This man observed cork with his microscope and called the tiny boxes 'cells'
Who was Robert Hooke
100
This fills the space inside a cell. It is semi-fluid and is composed of water and dissolved materials.
What is cytoplasm?
100
This organelle provides the cell with the ATP it needs to perform its functions and activities.
What is the mitochondria?
100
Programmed cell death.

What is apoptosis?

200
This cell type contains a nucleus and organelles (such as mitochondria).
What are eukaryotic cells?
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
These structures are used for cell movement. The first is long and there are usually very few of them. The second are short and there are usually many of them.
What flagella and cilia?
200

Perform specific functions within a cell. "Tiny organs."

What are organelles?

300

This scientist termed cells "animalcules."

Who is Antonie van Leeuwenhoek?

300

Cell products pass through this organelle and become packaged for delivery in or out of the cell.

What is the Golgi apparatus

300
This organelle digests worn out cell parts and also plays a role to defend the cell from infection.
What is a lysosome?
300

Cells that make up plants, animals, fungi, and protists. 

what are examples of a eukaryotic cell?

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

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

What is the endoplasmic reticulum?

400

These follow the instructions in the DNA to make proteins. They are free-floating or may be found attached to the ER.

What are ribosomes?

400
Cells that make up E. coli and Streptococcus.

What are examples of 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.
500
This organelle is found only in animal cells. It is made of microtubules and is thought to play a role in cell division.
What are centrioles?
500
The three differences between plant and animal cells are:
1. Plant cells have cell walls. 2. Plant cells have chloroplasts 3. Animal cells have centrioles.
500

The theory that eukaryotic cells evolved when prokaryotic cells engulfed or absorbed smaller cells. Noticing the fact that mitochondria and chloroplasts have their own DNA.

What is the endosymbiosis theory?
