This organelle controls what enters and leaves the cell. It is considered selectively permeable.
What is cell membrane?
100
Cellular processes enable plants to produce energy and use energy. This organelle is the site of most energy functions.
What is the mitochondria?
100
The organelles found in plant cells and is the site where photosynthesis occurs
What are chloroplasts?
100
Name one of the uses of mitosis.
What is reproduction, growth, or repair?
100
The basic unit of life.
What are cells?
200
This organelle is the control center of the cell.
What is the nucleus?
200
The organelle where respiration takes place.
What is mitochondria?
200
The organelle unique to plants that provides support and protection.
What is the cell wall?
200
The number of identical daughter cells formed by one parent cell during mitosis.
What is 2?
200
These organisms are composed of one cell and would include most protists and bacteria.
What is unicellular?
300
This organelle produces most of the energy needed by the cell.
What is mitochondria?
300
One way in which materials (for example molecules of sugar or water) move across the cell membrane. It occurs as materials are moved from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.
What is diffusion?
300
The cellular process plants use to convert energy from the sun into sugar. Represented by the equation:
Carbon Dioxide + Water +Sunlight -----> Sugar +Oxygen
What is photosynthesis?
300
During mitosis, this organelle copies the cell's DNA and splits in half creating 2 identical copies of itself.
What is the nucleus?
300
These organisms are cells that lack a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles. Bacteria compose the majority of this group.
What is prokaryotic?
400
The organelles that store food, waste, and water.
What are vacuoles?
400
The diffusion of water across a membrane.
What is osmosis?
400
The cellular process plants and animals use to convert sugar into energy. Represented by the equation:
Sugar + Oxygen ----> Carbon Dioxide + Water + energy
What is respiration?
400
This type of reproduction only has one parent cell that produces copies of itself through mitosis.
What is asexual?
400
These organisms are cells that contain a membrane bound nucleus and organelles. Plant, animal, and protist are in this group.
What is eukaryotic?
500
This is the gel-like substance found in the cell. The organelles are embedded in it.
What is cytoplasm?
500
The cellular process that is most responsible for healing a wound.
What is mitosis?
500
Plants and animals both have these organelles but they are usually much larger in plants.
What are vacuoles?
500
The DNA of a cell is stored in these x-shaped features that split during mitosis and move to opposite ends of the parent cell's nucleus.
What are chromosomes?
500
Theses organisms (including humans) are complex systems with specialized cells that perform specific functions.
