The "blueprint" for life. It contains all of your genetic material
What is DNA?
100
The control center. This is like Mr. Hunt's office...it contains Mr. Hunt-the important owner of all disciplinary information. Similarly it contains DNA.
What is the nucleus?
100
He coined the term "cells"
Who is Robert Hooke?
100
Undifferentiated cells--cells that can become anything.
What are stem cells?
100
Plant and bacteria cells have this feature in common.
What are two examples of cells with a cell wall?
200
Is the "Cel&p" of the cell. It converts chemical energy in food into compounds that a cell can use
What is mitochondria?
200
It is the "jelly-like" material of the cell that contains all of the organelles.
What is the cytoplasm?
200
There are three main groups of life: bacteria, eukarya, and this. The types of organisms can live in extreme environments all over the world.
What are Archaea?
200
Where every one of our cells comes from (hint: cells is in the name)
What are embryonic stem cells?
200
The best known stem cell therapy today.
What is a bone marrow transplant?
300
A thin flexible barrier that surrounds all cells. It regulates what goes in and out of the cell.
What is the cell membrane?
300
It is where translation occurs; in other words this is what produces proteins. They can be free-floating or attached to the rough ER
What are ribosomes?
300
He came up with the process of pasteurization.
Who is Louis Pasteur
300
Differentiated stem cells, but can form multiple tissues.
What are multipotent stem cells?
300
Different tissues coming together to make a whole.
What is an organ?
400
The place where lipids are assembled/produced
What is the smooth endoplasmic reticulum?
400
Long, whip-like structures used for movement.
What are flagella?
400
He was the first scientist to observe living organisms under a microscope.
Who is Antonie Van Leeuwenhoek?
400
Stem cells that can form many (over 200) cell types; but, can't become all cell types.
What are pluripotent stem cells?
400
A substance used by the mitochondria to make energy that also passes through the cell membrane easily.
What is oxygen?
500
It modifies, sorts, and packages proteins and other materials that the ER makes.
What is the Golgi Apparatus/Body?
500
Break down lipids, carbs, and proteins into smaller molecules via digestive enzymes. It's the garbage disposal of the cell.
What are lysosomes?
500
The three components of cell theory
What is all living things are made up of cells, cells are the basic unit of structure and function in living things, and new cells are produced from pre-existing cells?
500
Stem cells that can develop into a new individual.
What are totipotent stem cells?
500
The process in which cells lose water in a hypertonic solution.
