One example of this is when you start to sweat to bring down your body temperature. Another example is when your muscles relax and contract (shivering) to help raise your body temperature.
What is maintaining homeostasis?
100
This is the function of the Golgi body in a cell.
What is receive material from the ER and finishes packaging them?
100
Skin tissue only contains skin cells. Muscle tissue only contains muscle cells. This is the name for of the process that provides unique cells that perform specific tasks in an organism.
What is cell specialization or differentiation?
100
The lungs are the (blank) level of cellular organization.
What is organ level?

Can a brain cell isolated from a frog live independently?
What is false?

Plants require this along with carbon dioxide and water to produce the energy they need to grow.
What is energy from the sun?
200
These are differences between animal cells and plant cells.
What is plant cells have a cell wall, chloroplasts, and a large central vacuole. Animal cells have lysosomes and many small vacuoles.
200
Tissues that group together to perform the same function are called this.
What is an organ?
200
A tree needs nutrients, water, space to grow, energy from the sun, and (blank)
What are gases? Specifically carbon dioxide and nitrogen.
200
Partially processed lipids and proteins are sent to vacuoles to finish packaging.
What is false? They are sent to a Golgi body to finish packaging them.
300
Cell Theory is made up of three points: 1) All living things are made up of one or more cells. 2) Cells carry out the functions needed to support life. This is the third point
What is cells only come from pre-existing cell?
300
These are the functions of proteins in cells.
What is provide energy, an essential building material for many cells, they are components of many cell parts including the cell membrane and the cell also uses proteins to build and repair body parts. Proteins control thousands of chemical processes in an organism?
300
This is how muscle cells are specialized to perform a specific task.
What is they have more mitochondria to help provide the energy needed to help move our bodies?
300
(Blank) captures energy from sunlight and uses it to make food.
What are chloroplasts?
300
Only living organisms can reproduce and grow.
What is true.
400
This is the physical or chemical change in an organism's external environment and its reaction to it.
What is stimulus and response?
400
This organelle is made inside the nucleus and carries proteins (DNA/RNA) throughout the cell.
What are ribosomes?
400
This is the order of cellular organization.
What is similar cells group together to form a specific tissue. Tissues group together to form organs. Organs group together to form an organ system. i.e circulatory system, nervous system, digestive system.
400
These are two reasons why carbohydrates are important to the function of a living organism.
What is providing energy and material for cell membranes and cell walls?
400
We store extra energy in our bodies as carbohydrates.
What is false? They are stored as fats.

These are the six differences between living and non-living organisms.
What is ability to grow and develop, ability to reproduce, responding to its surroundings (stimulus/response), maintaining homeostasis, being adapted to its environment, and being made up of cells?
500
This is a large nucleic acid molecule that holds the genetic information a cell needs to make proteins.
What is DNA?
500
This type of tissue in plants provides a pathway for the transporting of water and minerals from the roots to its leaves.
What is xylem?
500
The final level of cellular organization is (blank).
What is an organism? cells, tissue, organs, organ systems, and finally the organism itself.
500
Bacteria, protozoans, and yeast are examples of unicellular organisms.
What is true?
