-Record & analyze data
-Conclusion
How do living things differ from nonliving things?
grow & develop
made up of cells
responsiveness
obtain and use energy
(all do differently)
Levels of Organization?

simplest part of a living system
Cellular level
basic unit of structure and function
Tissue level
group of cells performing a specifc function in an organism
organ level
different types of tissues combined togethor for a specific purpose
organ system
made up of several organs working togethor to perform a specifc function.
plasnolysis
cell membrane shrinks away from cell wall
before microscopes were invented what was the cause of infection and disease?
curses and supernatural's. without microscopes there was no way to see viruses and bacteria.
Anton Van Leeuwenhoek
made first microscope which at that time was nothing more than a magnifying glass.
Name the fluid filled organelle in the plant cell that is used for storage of sugars, ions, lipids other dissolved materials, and water
Vacuole
Anton Van Leewehhoek
recognized for deveolping the 1st microscope which was nothing more than an magnifying glass.
3 capabilities of chloroplasts
-site of photosynthesis
-contain green pigment chlorophyll that cause green
-absorb sunlight
-provide food for plant
Why is the mitochondria known as the powerhouse of the cell?
it is the site of aerobic respiration and the cell uses it for energy
2 types of nucleic acids?
DNA & RNA
"Cells come from preexisting cell"- is part of the cell theory said by whom?
Rudolph Virchow
Cell Theory?
1. All living things are composed of at least 1 or more cells.
2. Cells are the basic unit of structure& function
3. Cells come from preexisting cells
What exactly was the 1st developed microscope?
a magnifying glass
Who came of with the term "cell" and why did he name it that?
Robert Hooke. He discovered the 1st cell in a cork. He described it as many litte boxes, so he called them cells.
fluid inside the nucleus
Nucleoplasm
what were 2 things that people thought caused disease before microscopes were developed
curses & supernaturals
Proteins are synthesized by what type of nucleic acid?
RNA
Who discovered the animal cell?
Theodor Schwann
Organelle
specialized structures in the cell that carry out different metabolic functions
type of cells that contain sturctures
Eukaryotes
organelle that carries out photosynthesis
chloroplast
largest organelle in plant cell
vacuole
internal membrane system in cells in which components of the cell membrane are assembled and some proteins are modified
Endoplasmic Reticulum
flexible barriar around the cell
cell membrane
brain of cell where DNA is located
nucleus
type of cell where there are no organelles
Prokaryotes
energy requiring process that moves material across a cell membrane against a concentration difference
Active Transport
group of organs working togethor to perform a specific function
organ system
small dense region within most nuclei in which the assembly of ribosomes begin.
nucleolus
group of tissues working togethor to perform specific functions
organ
What is in the mitochondria
ATP
Long thin fiber that functions in the movement & support of the cell
mircofilament
process by which extensions of cytoplasm surround large particles and take them into the cell
Endocytosis
collection of liveing tissue matter enclosed by a barrier that separates it from its surroundings.
cell
process by which water passes through the membrane of the cell
osmosis
process by which material moves from an area of high concentration to lower concentration
diffusion
granular material visible within the nucleus: uncoiled DNA
chromatin
double layered sheet that forms the core of nearly all cell membranes.
phospholipid bilayer
network of protein filaments that provides the cell with structure.
mircofilament/microtubule
cell organell filled with enzymes needed to break down certain materials in the cell
lysosomes
discovered the first living plant cell
Shliedan
3 capabilities of chloroplasts
* houses chlrophyll
* produces carbon dioxide/oxy.
* absorb sunlight, sight of photosynthesis
the cell membrane can be described as being _____
selectively permeable
lysosomes
take care of everything cell does not need
Centrioles
only appear in animal cells. Always seen in pairs.
golgi complex-
ship and package proteins that come from ribosomes.
diff. b/t Eukaryotes & Prokaryotes
Prokaryotes lack internal structure and most are single celled organisims. Eukaryotes contain internal structure.
