Terms : Hide Images [1]
| Studied cork under the microscope; named the "cell" | ||
| 1st person to observe living things; known as the "Father of Microbiology" | ||
| Discovered all plants are made of cells | ||
| Discovered all animals are made of cells | ||
| Discovered all cells come from other cells | ||
| 1. All living things are made up of cells 2. Cells are the basic unit of life 3. All cells come from preexisting cells | ||
| Cell with NO nucleus | ||
| Cell with a nucleus | ||
| Example of a prokaryote | ||
| Example of eukaryote | ||
| Beam of light passes through lens to enlarge object | ||
| Beam of electrons focused by a magnet enlarges object; thousands of times more powerful than a light microscope | ||
| Living things that are the basic unit of life | ||
| A group of similar cells acting together to carry out a life process | ||
| A group of tissues working together | ||
| A group of organs acting together to carry out a specific life process | ||
| Adaption of a cell for a particular function | ||

| Made of phospholipid bilayer | ||
| Controls what enters and exits the cell, protects and supports cell, and helps cells communicate with other cells | ||
| Jelly-like material that contains organelles | ||
| Protects and supports the cell | ||
| Has ribosomes attached | ||
| No ribosomes attached | ||
| Site of protein production | ||
| Make membrane lipids and helps in the detoxifacation of drugs | ||
| Enclosed by two membranes with the inner membrane folded; contains its own DNA | ||
| Converts chemical energy stored in food into compounds that are more convenient for the cell to use; energy source of cell | ||
| Surrounded by a nuclear envelope that has pores; contains chromatin and nucleolus | ||
| Where ribosomes are assembled | ||
| Directs all the cells activities; contains the cells DNA | ||
| Small, round organelles made of RNA; most numerous organelle | ||
| Site of protien synthesis | ||
| Small organelle filled with enzymes | ||
| Breaking down organelles that are no longer useful, removing "junk" so it doesn't clutter the cell; clean up crew | ||
| Stack of membranes | ||
| Modify, sorts and packages proteins and other materials from the ER for starage in the cell or secretion outside the cell | ||
| Network of protein filaments called microfilaments and microtublules | ||
| Helps cell maintain shape and helps the cell move | ||
| Part of the cytoskeleton that helps with cell division and builds flagella and cilia | ||
| Mircrotubules that helps cells to swim through liquids | ||
| Sac-like structure that takes up 90% of a plant cell | ||
| Stores materials such as water, salts, proteins and carbs; helps plants support heavy structures like leaves | ||
| Found outside the cell membrane, make mostly of cellulose | ||
| Provides protection and support for a plant cell | ||
| Surrounded by two membranes; contains chlorophyll; contains its own DNA | ||
| Capture the energy from sunlight and convert it into chemical energy during photosynthesis | ||
| Found only in plant cells and not animal cells |
