|
A protective covering that encloses the entire cell
|
CELL MEMBRANE
|
|
|
Gelatin-like material inside the cell membrane. Most of the work is carried out within it.
|
CYTOPLASM
|
|
|
the genetic material is in a structure called the nucleus in this type of cell
|
EUKARYOTIC CELL
|
|
|
A structure enclosed by its own membrane and contains genetic material that cells need to reproduce.
|
NUCLEUS
|
|
|
This word describes any part of a cell that is enclosed by its own membrane.
|
ORGANELLE
|
|
|
In this type of cell, there is no separate compartment for the genetic material.
|
PROKARYOTIC CELL
|
|
|
A tough outer covering that lies just outside the cell membrane.
|
CELL WALL
|
|
|
vesicles in animal cells that contain chemicals to break down materials taken into the cell, as well as old cell parts.
|
LYSOSOMES
|
|
|
Inside plant cells, these can hold water, waste, and other materials and move materials either into or out of the cell.
|
VACUOLES
|
|
|
This organelle that looks like a stack of pancakes takes material manufactured by the endoplasmic reticulum and finishes processing them.
|
GOLGI APPARATUS
|
|
|
a part of the cellular transport system, this organelle contains ribosomes to manufacture proteins and parts of the cell membrane.
|
ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM
|
|
|
Portions of endoplasmic reticulum break off to form small packages called _____ which transport processed material.
|
VESICLES
|
|
|
organelles in all eukaryotic cells that use oxygen to get energy from processing food.
|
MITOCHONDRIA
|
|
|
organelles within plant cells which use energy from sunlight to make sugar.
|
CHLOROPLASTS
|
|
|
tiny structures located in the cytoplasm and endoplasmic reticulum that translate information to build proteins
|

|
Organisms made up on only one cell are called _____.
|
UNICELLULAR
|
|
|
An instrument which makes an object appear bigger than it is.
|
MICROSCOPE
|
|
|
A microscope that magnifies an object millions of times and produces a three-dimensional image.
|
SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPE (SEM)
|
|
|
a microscope that uses a beam of electrons through a thin section of an object to produce a two-dimensional image.
|
TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPE (TEM)
|
|
|
how is magnification calculated when using a light microscope?
|
multiply the eyepiece lens times the objective lens.
|
|
|
cells in multicellular organisms often have different functions
