What is scientific classification?

Redi & Pastuer' experiments disproved Spontaneous Generation. In addition to this, Virchow's work contributed to this part of the Cell Theory.
What is all cells come from other cells or all living organisms come from other living organisms?
300
Plants (or all producers) have these in their cells.
What is a chloroplast?

In a city analogy, this could be the post office.
What is the Golgi body?

DAILY DOUBLE Two reasons that cells undergo mitosis (cell division).
What is to: - renew - replace - grow
500
Three things that make a plant cell differ from an animal cell.
What is: - lack of lysosomes - they have a cell wall, large central vacuole, and chloroplasts
500
This organelle is responsible for the process of cellular respiration, or converting oxygen and nutrients in a cell into energy that can be used.
What is the mitochondria?
500
Explain why our eukaryotic blood cells do not have nuclei.
What is the function of the red blood cell is to transport oxygen throughout the body. Without a nucleus, the surface area of the cell increases, thus increasing the efficiency of oxygen exchange. The cell can hold more oxygen, its structure contributes to better performing the cell's job.
