This gives bacteria its shape. 

What are cytoskeleton?

100

This is a cluster of spherical bacteria. 

What is a staphylococci?

100

Unicellular, cell walls of chitin 

What is yeast?

100

This macromolecule never leaves the nucleous. 

What is DNA?

100

These are the two key components of the peptidoglycan layer, contributing to the cell wall's structure and negative charge. 

What is teichoic and lipoteichoic acid?

200

This is responsible for movement and cannot be easily pulled out. 

What is flagella?

200

This is produced by the mitotic division of a single parent cell. 

What are asexual spores?
200

Multicellular animals 

What are helminths?

200

This type of endoplasmic reticulum is envolved in protein synthesis. 

What is rough endoplasmic reticulum.  

200

These three things make up the cell envelope. 

What are the outer membrane, cell wall and cytoplasmic membrane.

300

These are responsible for the production of protein. 

What are ribosomes?

300

This is the acquisition of nutrients from organic materials (substrates). 

What is heterotrophic?

300

Unicellular, heterotrophic protists

What are protozoa?

300

This is the release of large particles to the outside of the cell. 

What is extocytosis?

300

This is the movement of bacteria in response to chemical signals. 

What is chemotaxis?

400

These tubes are used to communicate with other organisms and can send genetic information. 

What are pili?

400

This external structure directly impacts the effectiveness of the host immune system. 

What is a capsule?

400
Unicellular or multicellular photosynthetic protists

What are algae?

400

This transports proteins between the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus. 

What are the transitional vesicles?

400

These are the three distinct parts of flagellum. 

What are filament, hoot (sheath) and basal body?

500

An anchor or attachment that is not easily dislodged. 

What is fimbriae?

500

This is a group of bacteria that accumulate in layers and secrete a protective extracellular material. 

What is biofilm?

500
Multicellular, cell walls of chitin, absorb nutrients, produce hyphae

What are filamentous fungi?

500

This cellular structure is directly involved in converting the "message" found in a nucleic acid into a specific sequence of amino acids to make proteins. 

What is ribosome?

500

These are the 4 major divisions of bacteria.  

What are gram-positive cocci, gram-positive bacilli, gram-negative cocci and gram-negative bacilli?
