This type of microscope is used to observe living organisms.

What is the light microscope?

100
This property 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 and is composed of water and dissolved materials.
What is cytoplasm?
100

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

What is the mitochondria?

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

This fluid supports the organelles within a cell.

What is cytoplasm?

200

The type of diffusion that occurs when a membrane protein is required to move large molecules along with the concentration gradient.

What is facilitated diffusion?

300

The two types of electron microscopes.

What are transmission and scanning electron microscopes?

300

Large molecules that cannot pass through the phospholipid bilayer must pass through these.

What are transport (membrane) proteins?

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
300
This organelle digests worn out cell parts and also plays a role to defend the cell from infection.
What is a lysosome?
300
This occurs when water diffuses into a cell.
What is osmosis?
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

The part of the phospholipid that doesn't "like" water?

What are hydrophobic tails?

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?
400
These are made by the nucleolus and their function is to follow DNA instructions to make stuff. They are free-floating or may be found attached to the ER.
What are ribosomes?
400

This transport is when materials are taken into cell.

What is endocytosis?

500

List the three statements of the cell theory.

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

500

These molecules can easily pass through the cell membrane

What are small, non-polar molecules?

500

This organelle is found only in animal cells. It is made of protein filaments and plays 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 sodium/potassium pump requires ATP to pump against the concentration gradient. This is an example of this type of transport.
What is active transport?
