Organelles
These structures store food, water, and waste.
What is a vacuole?
To generate offspring of organisms or duplicates of a cell.
What is reproduce?
A skeleton is an example.
What is an organ system?
City hall might be a good metaphor for this organelle.
What is the nucleus?
These unicellular organisms do not have organelles.
What is a prokaryote?
These important structures are not found in animal cells and are where photosynthesis happens.
Getting bigger and more mature.
What is grow and develop?
Living things that can be unicellular or multicellular.
What are organisms?
This organelle would be similar to a city's power station.
What is the mitochondrion? (also accept chloroplast)
These organisms have a nucleus, are more complex, and can be multicellular.
Not to be confused with the cell membrane, these plant structures provide support but do not determine what goes in and out of a cell.
What is a cell wall?
What is get and use energy?
Built from tissues, these structures can be replaced by doctors during a transplant.
What is an organ?
The city's air would be the closest thing to this organelle.
What is the cytoplasm?
Plant cells might be green, could have chloroplasts, will definitely have cells walls, large vacuoles, and are arranged in regular patterns.
What are differences between plant and animal cells?
Food is broken down in these structures so that the energy stored within the food can be used.
What is a mitochondrion?
An example would be a bright light suddenly shining and your pupils constrict.
What is respond to stimuli?
Not to be confused with phones or places where prisoners are held, this is a major topic of this science unit.
What is a cell?
An organelle that breaks down waste materials; the best would analogy would be a landfill, recycling center or garbage collection.
What is a lysosome?
All living things are made of cells, come from cells, and cells are the basic structure of life.
What is Cell Theory?
This is where the DNA is found in eukaryotes.
What is the nucleus?
Keeping a steady balance of the conditions required for life.
What is maintaining homeostasis?
Humans have 4 basic types: connective, epithelial, muscle, and nerve.
What is tissue?
A factory would be most like this organelle.
What is the endoplasmic reticulum? (also accept ribosome)
The nucleus organizes the duplication of organelles, which separate to 2 sides of the cell, and after the cell membrane pinches in the middle, voila, 2 cells!
What is cell multiplication? (accept cell division, cell reproduction, binary fission)
