The organelle mainly found in animal cells and digests materials inside the cell.
What is a lysosome
100
Does not contain a cell wall
What is an animal cell
100
True or False: Photosynthesis takes place in plants only.
What is false, (it also takes place in algae and prokaryotic cells)
100
Meat or animal eating organism. (As opposed to something that just eats plants.)
What is a carnivore
100
The phase before mitosis where the chromosomes (structure with coiled DNA) are duplicated.
What is interphase.
200
The organelle only found in plant cells and is the outermost structure that gives structure to the cell and acts as a protective barrier.
What is a cell wall
200
Has a round, circular shape.
What is an animal cell
200
the organelle where photosynthesis takes place
What is a chloroplast?
200
This wave of the Electromagnetic spectrum causes sunburns as well as visible to bees (but are invisible to the human eye).
What is the Ultraviolet (UV) wave
200
The phase where chromosome align/line up at the equator of cell (middle of cell).
What is metaphase
300
The organelle that is the control center of the cell containing the cell's DNA
What is the nucleus?
300
Contains chloroplasts which contain chlorophyll which converts the energy of the sun into sugars.
What is a plant cell
300
The green pigment found in chloroplasts
What is chlorophyll?
300
The biggest single cell.
What is an egg- an ostrich egg to be exact
300
The phase where the paired chromatids (duplicated chromosomes) separate and move to opposite sides of the cell.
What is anaphase
400
The folded membrane structured organelle that makes lipids (fats) and acts as a delivery system for the cell. It can be rough (covered in ribosomes) or smooth (no ribosomes).
What is the endoplasmic reticulum
400
Contains mitochondria which convert glucose (sugar) into ATP
What is both the animal and plant cell
(yes, a trick question)
400
The TWO products of photosynthesis
What is glucose (sugar) and oxygen
400
The gel like fluid that is found inside the cell and holds all the organelles.
What is the cytoplasm
400
The familial sounding name for the two cells that are formed after cytokinesis (and mitosis).
What are daughter cells?
500
The organelle that packages and distributes proteins. It is named after an Italian scientist who first identified it.
What is the Golgi complex
500
Has a cell membrane which is a protective barrier that encloses a cell.
What is both-a plant and animal cell.
(fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me)
500
The THREE reactants (what is consumed to make something else) of photosynthesis
What is carbon dioxide, water and light energy (sun energy)
500
DNA is short for this this mouthful term.
What is deoxyribonucleic acid.
500
The number of phases in mitosis.
Bonus: name them.
What is 4 phases? Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase.
