Wild Card
100
found only in plant cells, it protects and supports the cell
What is the cell wall?
100
these are the products of photosynthesis.
What are oxygen and sugars (glucose)?
100
any substance that cannot be broken down into simpler substances
What is an element?
100
a cow eating grass is an example of this characteristic of living things.

What is G-T-A-C-T-A-A-T
200
this organelle controls what substances come into and out of the cell
What is the cell membrane?
200
what a plant needs to carry on photosynthesis.
What are the sun and water?
200
when two or more elements chemically combine.
What is a compound?
200
list the four things all living things need.
What are food, water, living space, and stable internal conditions (homeostasis)?
200
this scientific attitude is important in science--with it, successful scientists are eager to learn more about the topics they study.
What is curiosity?
300
known as the powerhouse of the cell, they convert energy in food molecules into energy the cell can use
What are the mitochondria?
300
this type of organism can make its own food.
What is an autotroph or producer?
300
during this process, one copy of DNA is distributed into each of the two daughter cells.
What is mitosis?
300
the species name for this species: Crocodylus acutus
What is acutus?
300
these organisms cannot make their own food.
What is an heterotroph or consumer?
400
larger in plant cells, these organelles store food, water, and waste in the cell.
What is the vacuole?
400
respiration takes place in this organelle in the cell.
What is the mitochondria?
400
at this stage of mitosis, chromosomes line up across the center of the cell.
What is metaphase?
400
because members of this species are so different to each other, this kingdom is sometimes called the "odds and ends" kingdom.
What are Protists?
400
a bird's feathers, a spider web, and your fingernails are all made mainly of this large, organic molecule.
What are proteins?
500
it controls and directs all of the cell's activities and is only found in eukaryotic organisms
What is the nucleus?
500
cells use oxygen and release carbon dioxide while breaking down food molecules for energy during this process.
What is respiration?
500
the stage of the cell cycle during which replication occurs.
What is interphase?
500
bacteria belong in this kingdom.
What is the Prokaryotic Kingdom?
500
the levels of biological organization from smallest to largest.
What are atoms molecules cells tissues organs organ systems?
