100
These TWO macromolecules are involving in carrying and storing genetic information.
What are DNA & RNA?
100
Thousands of tiny organelles that read RNA and make proteins.
What are ribosomes?
100
The most common type of prokaryotic cell.
What is bacteria?
100
This type of cell is much smaller than the others.
What is bacteria?
100
The process through which all living organisms make copies of themselves.
What is reproduction?
200
The building blocks of proteins.
What are amino acids?
200
The organelles that use energy from the sun to build carbohydrates.
What are chloroplasts?
200
The TWO most common types of eukaryotic cells.
What are plant and animal cells?
200
A complex cell with a nucleus and mitochondria, but no cell wall.
What is an animal cell?
200
The process through which all living species change over time.
What is evolution?
300
The macromolecule that makes up the cell membrane.
What is a phospholipid?
300
The organelles that break down carbohydrates and release energy for the cell to use.
What are mitochondria?
300
The THREE organelles that ALL cells have in common.
What are cell membrane, cytoplasm, and ribosomes?
300
These cells were the first to evolve.
What are bacteria?

What is Threonine-Glycine-Stop?
400
TWO similar organelles that are involved in storage & clean up.
What are lysosomes and vesicles or vacuoles?
400
The process through which prokaryotic cells evolved into eukaryotic cells.
What is endosymbiosis?
400
A eukaryotic cell with a cell wall and a large central vacuole.
What is a plant cell?
400
The process through which all living organisms take in nutrients, break them down, and release waste.
What is metabolism?
500
The macromolecule that is read to make proteins.
What is RNA?
500
TWO organelles involved in the packaging, directing and transportation of proteins.
What are Golgi Body and the ER?
500
The most common type of cell on Earth.
What is bacteria?
500
A cell with a cell wall, but no membrane bound organelles.
What is a bacteria cell?
500
A "germ" that exhibits SOME of the characteristics of life (like reproduction and evolution) but not others (like metabolism).
What is a virus?
