Cram.com (Chapter 10) |
|
|
What is a cell?
|
The basic unit of structure and function in living things. |
The basic ????? Of ????? and ????? In living things. |
|
|
What is Tissue? |
A group of similar cells that work together and preform a similar function. |
A group of TISSUES that work together and preform a similar function OF BLOWING NOSES. |
|
|
What is the cell theory? |
A wildly accepted explanation of the relationship between cells and living things. |
It is accepted world wide... |
|
|
What is a word for a living thing with many cells? |
Multicellular |
A living thing with MULTI-ple cells |
|
|
What are the benefits of being Multicellular? |
LARGER SIZE: Larger organisms are prey for fewer predators. Larger predators can eat a variety of prey. LONGER LIFE: The lifespan of a multicellular organism isn't limited to the lifespan of a single cell. SPECIALIZATION: Each type of cell has a particular job. Specialization makes the organism more efficient. Just as the specialized cells differ in function, they also differ in structure. Each type of cell has a distinct shape. |
One benefit of the three would be either ( [A] Longer life) or ( [B] Shorter life ) |
|
|
What are the smallest parts/units of many compounds? |
Molecules |
The answer isn't Atoms but instead is... |
|
|
Name four types of molecules that are needed for the survival of living things. Explain. |
Carbohydrates mainly provide cells with energy. Lipids have many functions such as forming structures in cells and storing energy. Proteins form body structures and speed up chemical reactions in living things. Water helps living things preform these chemical reactions and is essential for life. |
The initals are C.L.P.W in any order |
|
|
What is the maintenance of internal stable condition that is necessary for life functions? |
Homeostasis |
Its not Photosynthesis but instead it is... |
|
|
For a microscope to be useful, it must have a combination of what two things? |
Magnification and Resolution |
Magnet and Quality |
|
|
What is a word for a living thing with only one cell? |
Unicellular |
One cell, like a UNI-cycle has one wheel... |
|
|
What is the smallest unit of an element called? |
Atoms |
It's Its not Molecules but its... |
|
|
In what process do collisions push molecules away from one another? |
Deffusion |
To DEFUSE a bomb that can't be turned off, you need to PULL THE SMALL BOMB PEICES APART so the bomb can't function. |
|
|
In what process does a cell split into two other almost identical cells? |
Division |
The cells are being DIVIDED by two or in other words they are in the process called... |
|
|
The process in which cells capture the energy in sunlight and convert it to energy stored in food is called what? |
Photosynthesis |
Not Homeostasis but instead it is... |
|
|
A group of organs that work together and preform one or more major functions is an... |
Organ System |
The answer is an Organ ????? |
|
|
What are the levels of organization in an organ from Smallest to Largest? |
Atoms, elements, molecules, compounds, cells, tissues, organs, organ systems, and organisms. |
The initials are... A,E,M,C,C,T,O,OS,O |
|
|
What are Prokaryotes? |
Organisms that do not have a nucleus or membrane-bound organelles. |
Bacteria is the most common type of Prokaryotes which are... |
|
|
What are organelles? |
The structures that compose each cell. |
(i.e nucleus, cell membrane, vacuole, etc.) |
|
|
What is the rigid layer that surrounds the cells of plants and some other organisms? |
A Cell Wall |
This helps protect and support the cell... |
|
|
What would happen if a cell had no cell membrane? |
There would be harmful materials entering that cell. |
What if the gate had no security guard? |
|
|
What is a large oval structure that acts as a cells control center and directs all of the cells activitys? |
The Nucleus |
Nuclear EXPLOSIONS!!! |
|
|
What is the function of a cell membrane? |
It Controlls which substances pass in and out of a cell. |
It is like a cell's miniature gate... |
|
|
What are Eukaryotes? |
Multicellular organisms that don't have a nucleus or membrane-bound organelles. |
Not Prokaryotes but instead... |
|
|
What is the nucleolus? |
Where ribosomes are made. |
Not a nucleus, but an... |
|
|
What is the Cytoplasm? |
Something that fills the region between the cell membrane and the nucleus. |
The word Cytoplasm is said Cyto Plasm if you put a SPACE IMBETWEEN... |
|
|
What do the initials ER stand for? |
Endoplasmic Reticulum |
WE- WO- WE- WO! It's the amberlance!! XD |
|
|
What is the job of Mitochondria? |

|
|
What is the Endoplasmic Reticulum? [ER] |

|
|
What is the Golgi Apparatus? |
