What is a cell?
the smallest unit that can carry on all of the processes of life
100
What is the membrane bound organelle that contains a cells DNA?
nucleus
100

What is a large, fluid filled organelle that stores water, enzymes, metabolic wastes, and other materials?

Central Vacuole

100

What phase does a cell spend most of its time?

Not actually a phase of mitosis!

Interphase

100
true or false: some of the common features cells share are a cell membrane, cytoplasm, ribosomes, and genetic material
true
200
how many parts does the cell theory have in it?
three
200
What is the difference between Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes?
Prokaryotes lack a membrane bound nucleus and membrane bound organelles and Eukaryotes do not
200

true or false: nucleolus are organelles made of protein and RNA that direct protein synthesis in the cytoplasm

false: ribosomes

200

The last phase of mitosis

Telophase

200
What do prokaryotes lack?
a nucleus and membrane bound organelles.
300
true or false: Matthias Schleiden was the first person to observe living cells
false: Leeuwenhoek
300

What is the part of cell is important in mitotic division.

Microtubules

300

What are tiny organelles that transfer energy from organic molecules- all energy for the cell?

mitochondria

300

The phase in which cell's chromosomes line up at the equator of the spindle.

Metaphase

300

Where is the genetic material concentrated in eurokaryotes?

nucleus

400
State the three fundamental parts of the cell theory.
.1. All living organisms are composed of one or more cells 2. Cells are the basic units of structure and function in an organism 3. Cells come only from the reproduction of existing cells
400
What is an organ system
a group of organs that accomplish related tasks
400

What is a system of membranous tubes and sacs, called cisternae?

endoplasmic reticulum

400

The sister chromatids separate from each other and are pulled towards opposite ends of the cell.

Anaphase

400
true or false: plant cells lack a large central vacuole
false
500
Who were the first two people to report observations of the cell?
Robert Hooke and Leeuwenhoek
500
Groups of tissues that perform a particular job in an organism are called...
organs
500
What are lysosomes?
vesicles that bud from the Golgi apparatus and contain digestive enzymes
500

The chromosomes start to condense 

The mitotic spindle begins to form

Prophase

500
What are three unique features that are important to a plant function?
Cells walls, central vacuoles, and plastids
