Nucleus 101
Giants of Cell Theory
100
This organelle controls what substances come into and out of a cell
What is the cell membrane
100
This process is how molecules move into or out of a cell from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration
What is diffusion
100
This is the stage of the cell cycle where the cell grows, DNA is replicated, and the cell prepares to divide
What is Interphase
100
This organelle is the control center of the cell
What is the nucleus
100
This scientist took an X-ray of DNA and helped Watson and Crick understand the structure which earned them the Nobel Prize
Who is Rosalind Franklin
200
These organelles convert energy in food molecules into energy the cell can use
What is the mitochondria
200
This is the diffusion of water
What is osmosis
200
This is the stage of the cell cycle where the nucleus divides
What is Mitosis
200
This molecule is found inside the nucleus and contains all the genetic information for a cell
What is Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA)
200
This scientist is known for naming the cell (meaning little rooms)
Who is Robert Hooke
300
These organelles capture energy from sunlight and use it to produce food for the cell
What are chloroplasts
300
This process is how producers are able to use carbon dioxide, water and the energy from the sun to make glucose sugar and oxygen
What is photosynthesis
300
This is the stage of the cell cycle where the two daughter cells are formed
What is Cytokinesis
300
These are the nitrogen bases for Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA)
What is Adenine (A), Thymine (T), Guanine (G), and Cytosine (C)
300
This scientist looked at his own teeth scrapings under his simple microscope and is known as the "Father of Microscopy"
Who is Anton von Leewenhoek
400
This organelle uses enzymes to break down materials in the cell
What is lysosome
400
This is the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration
What is "opposites of each other"
400
The six phases of the cell cycle IN ORDER ARE...
What is Interphase, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase, and Cytokinesis (I put my arm there Chuck)
400
This molecule copies the DNA code and then moves to the ribosome to be read for protein synthesis
What is Ribonucleic Acid (mRNA to be exact)...
400
Which scientist(s) helped disprove spontaneous generation
Who are Francisco Redi &/or Louis Pasteur
500
These three organelles are involved with proteins: making them, transporting them, and packaging them
What are ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, and Golgi bodies (Golgi apparatus)
500
This is the result of uncontrolled cell division
What is a tumor (cancer)
500
What is the purpose of cell division. Answer for both single celled AND multi-celled organisms
What is to make more cells: single celled organisms reproduce and multi-celled organisms grow and replace dead or damaged cells
500
These molecules combine to form proteins
What are amino acids
500
The three parts of the cell theory state:
All living things are made of cells; Cells are the basic unit of structure and function in living things; and All cells come from other cells
