| 1062258017 | chromatin | tiny strands inside the nucleus that contain the instructions for directing the cells functions | 12 | |
| 1062258018 | cell membrane | members only can come and go | 13 | |
| 1062258019 | cell wall | Im a brick wall | 14 | |
| 1062258020 | cytoplasm | sail through my plasma | 15 | |
| 1062258021 | mitochondria | I am a "mighty" power house | 16 | |
| 1062258022 | lysosomes | i clean things up (lysol) | 17 | |
| 1062258023 | vacuoles | ill store anything (vacuum bags) | 18 | |
| 1062258024 | golgi bodies | im a GOLden packer | 19 | |
| 1062258025 | chloroplasts | make me something sweet to eat | 20 | |
| 1062258026 | endoplasmic reticulum ER | im a transportER | 21 | |
| 1062258027 | ribosomes | i make "some" nice proteins | 22 | |
| 1062258028 | nucleus | im the control center | 23 | |
| 1062258029 | nucleolus | "control" of the number of "ribos" ; the little nucleus | 24 | |
| 1062258030 | chromatin | im a "tin" of information | 25 | |
| 1062362672 | prokaryotes | simpler, smaller, and usually independent | 26 | |
| 1062362673 | cell theory | states that all cells come from other cells | 27 | |
| 1062362674 | photosynthesis | occurs in chloroplasts | 28 | |
| 1062362675 | lysosomes break down | carbs, lipids, proteins, and organelles | 29 | |
| 1062362676 | smooth er | produces lipids | 30 | |
| 1062362677 | cellular respiration | occurs in mitochondria | 31 | |
| 1062362678 | lipid synthesis | ribosomes are involved | 32 | |
| 1062362679 | diffusion | movement of particles from high concentration to low concentration; make concentrations equal | 33 | |
| 1062362680 | active transport | the movement of materials against a concentration difference; requires ATP | 34 | |
| 1062362681 | endocytosis | involves moving large molecules into the cell | 35 | |
| 1062362682 | nuclear membrane | similar to cell membrane because they are both semipermeable and made of lipids | 36 | |
| 1062362684 | golgi appartus | modifies and sorts proteins | 37 | |
| 1062483242 | osmosis | diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane | 38 | |
| 1062483243 | isotonic | concentration of solutes is the same inside and outside the cell | 39 | |
| 1062483244 | hypertonic | the solution outside the cell has a higher solute concentration then the inside of a cell; net movement of water molecules out of the cell causes it to shrink | 40 | |
| 1062483245 | hypotonic | the solution outside the cell has a lower solute concentration then inside the cell; a net movement of water molecules into the cell causes it to swell | 41 | |
| 1062483246 | endocytosis | moving molecules into the cell; membrane forms a pocket around a particle; pocket breaks from the outer portion of cell membrane; forms a vesicle with cytoplasm | 42 | |
| 1062483247 | exocytosis | moves particles out of cell; membrane of vesicle surrounds the material and fuses with the cell membrane; contents forced out of cell | 43 | |
| 1062493064 | eukaryotes | found in multicellular organisms; has organelles and a nucleus; plant and animal cells | 44 |
