Biology Notes Cell Structure

Biology Notes Cell Structure Cell - CORRECT ANSWER-The smallest unit that is capable of performing all life functions Unicellular Organism - CORRECT ANSWER-Single cell that carries all life processes Multicellular Organism - CORRECT ANSWER-Many Cells with a divisions and specialized cells for different function Simple Microscope - CORRECT ANSWER-One Lens Compound Light Microscope - CORRECT ANSWER-Microscope with two lens Electron Microscope - CORRECT ANSWER-Allow scientists to see images in Three Dimensionals Anton Van Leeuvenhoek - CORRECT ANSWER-Used a simple microscope and saw little animals in the water Robert Hooke - CORRECT ANSWER-Created the first compound light microscope and observed that cork was made of cells Matthias Schleiben - CORRECT ANSWER-Discovered that plants were made of cells Theodor Schwann - CORRECT ANSWER-Discovered Animals were made of cells Rudolph Virchow - CORRECT ANSWER-Cells come from existing cells Janet Plowe - CORRECT ANSWER-Cell membrane has a defined physical structure Cell Theory - CORRECT ANSWER-1. All living things are made of cells 2. Cells are the basic unit of structure and function in living things 3. New cells come from existing cells Prokaryotic Cells - CORRECT ANSWER-Without a nucleus, no membrane bound organelles Eukaryotic Cells - CORRECT ANSWER-Cells with a nucleus and membrane bound Organelle Organelle - CORRECT ANSWER-Cell Part with a specialized function Mitocandria - CORRECT ANSWER-Breaks down food to release energy looks like a bean with a double membrane Cytoplasm - CORRECT ANSWER-Gel-like substance inside of the cell that organelles are contained in Cell Walls - CORRECT ANSWER-Outside the cell membrane, protects and supports the cell, made of cellulose plant cells Vacuoles - CORRECT ANSWER-Store waste, food, and water. Much larger in plants. Ribosomes - CORRECT ANSWER-Create Proteins and found in cytoplasm to the ER Endoplasmic Reticulum - CORRECT ANSWER-Folded Membrane used to transport materials around the cell. Rough ER - CORRECT ANSWER-Ribosomes attachde to the ER where proteins are synthesized (Proteins are made) Smooth ER - CORRECT ANSWER-No Ribosomes attached where lipids are synthesized Nucleolus - CORRECT ANSWER-Inside the nucleolus where ribosomes are sythesized Nucleus - CORRECT ANSWER-Control Center for the cell, directs all cell activities DNA - CORRECT ANSWER-Genetic Information code containing instructions for making proteins
