The scientists who build his own microscope and used it to study nature.

Robert Hooke

100

One function of cells is obtaining ___.

Energy

100

This structure is found in both plant and animal cells and controls what enters and leaves the cell.

Cell membrane 

100

This instrument allows scientists to make very small objects appear larger.

Microscope

100

This process allows plants to make food using light energy.

Photosynthesis

200

Cell Theory states that all living things are made up of these.

Cells
200

Cells bring in these two things that they need.

Nutrients and Water
200

This strong supporting structure is found in plant calls but not animal cells.

Cell wall

200

This microscope feature describes how much larger an object appears.

Magnification

200

This organelle creates large amounts of energy during cellular respiration.

Mitochondria

300

According to Cell Theory, all new cells come from these.

Existing cells

300

Cells must get rid of these materials that they no longer need.

Wastes

300

This organelle is found in plant cells and is where photosynthesis takes place.

Chloroplast
300

This microscope feature allows you to see more detail.

Resolution

300

Photosynthesis does this with energy.

Stores energy
400

Cells are the basic units of ___ and ___ in living things.

Structure and Function

400

Put these in order from smallest to largest: 

organ - cell - organism - organelle - tissue - organ system 

Organelle - cell - tissue - organ - organ system - organism 

400

Plant cells usually have one large one of these, while animal cells usually have several smaller ones.

Vacuoles

400

True or False: Microscopes use both magnification and resolution.

True

400

Cellular respiration does this with energy.

Releases energy

500

Give all three key points of Cell Theory.

1. All living things are made up of cells.

2. Cells are the basic units of structure and function in living things.

3. All new cells are produced from existing cells. 

500

Name all three functions of cells. 

1. Obtaining energy 

2. Bringing in nutrients and water 

3. Getting rid of wastes 

500

Name three differences between plant cells and animal cells.

1. Plant cells have a cell wall, and animal cells do not

2. Plant cells have chloroplasts, and animal cells do not 

3. Plant cells usually have a larger vacuole than animal cells


500

Cell Theory was able to develop because advancements in this allowed scientists to observe cells.

Technology of the microscope.
