Name one organelle that both plant and animal cells have.

What is: the nucleus, mitochondria, cell membrane 

100

Why do cells go through mitosis? Name at least two reasons.

What is for growth, repair, reproduction, maintenance/survival?

100

What is Cancer?

What is: Uncontrolled cell division

100

What is the job of the respiratory system?

What is: To bring oxygen and remove carbon dioxide?

100

What is the main job of the circulatory system and the digestive system?

Circulatory - to move blood, oxygen, and nutrients around the body

Digestive - to break down food and absorb nutrients

200

This organelle is found only in plant cells and is where photosynthesis happens.

What is the chloroplast?

200

What is the first stage of mitosis?

What is prophase?
200

What causes cancer cells to be dangerous?

They divide quickluy and don't function normally.

200

This organ is where gas exchange happens.

What are: The Lungs
200

What organ pumps blood through the body?

What is the heart?

300

This rigid layer is found in plant cells but not in animal cells.

What is the cell wall?

300

During which phase do chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell?

What is metaphase?

300

True or False: Cancer cells go through all the regular stages of mitosis like normal cells.

False

300

Name two parts of the respiratory system besides the lungs. (Multiple answers!)

What are: Trachea & Bronchi, Nose and diaphragm

300

What organ produces acid to help break down food in the digestive system?

What is the stomach?

400

Which two structures are in plant cells but not animal cells?

What are the cell wall and chloroplasts?

400

What are the stages of mitosis in order?

Interphase, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase, Cytokinesis

400

Name one possible cause or trigger of cancer. (Multiple answers work!)

Smoking, Radiation, Genetics, Etc.

400

Name at least five parts of this diagram. (Multiple answers work!)

1. Nasal Passage/Cavity or Nose

2. Oral Cavity or Mouth

3. Larynx

4. Lungs

5. Bronchiolus

6. Diaphragm

7. Pharynx

8. Trachea or Windpipe

9. Bronchioles

10. Alveoli

400

What organ in the digestive system absorbs nutrients into the bloodstream, where the circulatory system carries them to the rest of the body?

What is the small intestine?

500

This organelle is the site of cellular respiration and is often called the "powerhouse of the cell."
Is it found in plant cells, animal cells, or both?

Mitochondria; both
500

During mitosis, what are the identical strands of DNA called that are held together by the centromere, and what structure helps move them apart? 

What are sister chromatids, the centromere, and spindle fibres?

500

What is the difference between a benign and malignant tumour?

Benign = Non-cancerous

Malignant = Cancerous & Can spread

500

How does the diaphragm help with breathing?

What is: it contracts to help pull air into the lungs and relaxes to push it out?

500

Describe how the circulatory and digestive systems work together.

The digestive system breaks down food into nutrients, and the circulatory system carries those nutrients to the cells.
