100
The control center of the cell.
What is the nucleus?
100
A cell with no nucleus.
What is a prokaryotic cell?
100
Nuclear division which produces two daughter cells.
What is mitosis?
100
The process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to make food.
What is photosynthesis?
100
When the chromosomes line up along the equator of the cell. Homologous chromosomes pair up.
What is Metaphase?
200
This is the cell's powerhouse. This organelle packages the energy of the food into ATP molecules.
What is mitochondria?
200
These cells are a lot bigger and have a cell nucleus which houses the cell's DNA. These are the types of cells we find in plants and animals.
What are eukaryotic cells?
200
The DNA of a cell organized into structures.
What are chromosomes?
200
The cell organelle in which photosynthesis takes place.
What is chloroplast?
200
The diffusion of water through a semipermeable membrane.
What is osmosis?
300
Organelles that help in the synthesis of proteins.
What are ribosomes?
300
These guys clean up the place getting rid of waste and other unwanted substances that may get into the cell.
What are lysosomes?
300
The phase where mitosis begins. The nuclear membrane dissolves. Chromosomes condense into rod-like structures.
What is prophase?
300
The ingredients used during photosynthesis. These two things allow photosynthesis to take place.
What is carbon dioxide and water?
300
The process by which a cell membrane surrounds a particle and encloses the particle in a vesicle to bring the particle into the cell.
What is endocytosis?
400
It is a network of membranes throughout the cytoplasm of the cell.
What is the endoplasmic reticulum?
400
The material that carries all the information about how a living thing will look and function.
What is DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid)?
400
When the chromatids separate and move to opposite sides of the cell.
What is Anaphase?
400
The products of photosynthesis.
What is glucose and oxygen?
400
The breakdown of food without the use of oxygen.
What is fermentation?
500
A very large empty space in the middle of a plant cell.
What is the vacuole?
500
The organelle in the cell that is responsible for sorting and correctly shipping the proteins produced in the endoplasmic reticulum.
What is the golgi complex?
500
The division of the cytoplasm of the cell.
What is Cytokinesis?
500
The process by which by which cells use oxygen to process energy from food.
What is cellular respiration?
500
The movement of substances across a cell membrane without the use of energy by the cell.
What is passive transport?
