Cell History/Theory
The first person to use the word "cell".
Who is Robert Hooke?
The part of the cell that controls what enters and leaves the cell.
What is the cell membrane?
The process of breaking food down into particles small enough to be used by cells.
What is digestion?
All cells fall into two broad categories depending on whether or not they:
What is have a nucleus?
Spreading out of molecules from a region of higher to lower concentration.
What is diffusion?
First person to see and describe microorganisms under the microscope.
Who is Anton van Leeuwenhoek?
The portion of the cell that exists outside the nucleus and provides a cushion for all the organelles.
What is cytoplasm?
The process of taking in food and water into a cell.
What is ingestion?
A cell that has a true nucleus and membrane-bound organelles is called:
What is Eukaryotic?
Movement of water from higher to lower concentration.
What is osmosis?
The following is NOT included in the cell theory:
A) The cell is the basic unit of structure in living things
B) The cell is the basic unit of function in living things
C) All cells are produced by mitosis
D) All cells come from existing cells
What is C?
This is the site of photosynthesis in a plant cell.
What is chloroplast?
The process of getting rid of liquid cell wastes.
What is excretion?
The following is not a part of the nucleus:
A) cytoplasm
B) nucleoplasm
C) chromosomes
D) nuclear membrane
What is A- cytoplasm
This is not a characteristic of active transport.
What is facilitated diffusion?
3 basic characteristics common to all types of cells are:
What are cell membrane, cytoplasm and control center?
This is the site of protein synthesis in a cell.
What is ribosome?
The process of converting food to a form of energy the cell can use.
What is respiration?
The organelle helps a plant cell to remain rigid.
What is central vacuole?
When comparing two solutions, the one with the higher solute concentration is:
What is hypertonic?
Statements that compose the cell theory are:
What are all cells come from pre-existing cells, all living things are composed of cells, and cells are the basic unit of structure and function?
This part of the cell contains strong digestive enzymes to break down proteins, carbohydrates and lipids into small molecules that can be used by the rest of the cell. This organelle helps to "clean up" or destroy any debris that might build up inside the cell.
What is Lysosome?
Using the energy obtained from foods for growth and repair.
What is biosynthesis?
The organelle not surrounded by a double membrane:
A) chloroplast
B) mitochondria
C) nucleus
D) Golgi apparatus
What is D- Golgi apparatus
When particles move across the membrane from high to low concentration and require help from transport proteins it involves this process.
What is facilitated diffusion?
