Hodge Podge Parts of the Cell Part II PotpourriOrgan Systems Organ Systems Part II
The three parts of the Cell Theory of Living things.
What are: Cells are the basic unit of life All living things are made up of one or more cells Cells can only come from pre- existing cells (cellular division)
The device scientists use to view very small objects in greater detail.
What is a microscope?
A group of specialized cells similar in structure and function.
What is a tissue?
A group of two or more organs that work together to perform a specific function for the body.
What is an Organ System?
A group of tissues that perform certain task.
What is an organ?
The name of the tiny structures inside a cell that carry out all the functions the cell needs to sustain itself.
What are organelles?
A sac-like organelle that store excess food and waste.
What is a vacuole?
The rigid structure that surrounds the plant cells membrane giving it protection and support.
What is the Cell Wall?
The organelle that breaks down food particles to release their stored energy to power the cell.
What is the Mitochondria?
The thin covering that surrounds the organelles and controls the passage of materials in and out of the cell.
What is the Cell Membrane?
A folded organelle that is responsible for making proteins.
What is the Endoplasmic reticulum?
The organelle that controls the activities of the cell.
What is the Nucleus?
The organelle that breaks down food and digests waste.
What is a lysosome?
A folded organelle that combines proteins made by the endoplasmic reticulum and delivers them to the rest of the cell and outside of the cell.
What is the Golgi Apparatus?
The membrane bound organelle that contains the chlorophyll, the substance that performs photosynthesis for plant cells.
What is the chloroplast?
The basic unit of life.
What is a Cell?
The movement of a substance from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
What is Diffusion?
The division of functions into smaller components in order to increase efficiency.
What is Compartment- alization?
The diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane.
What is Osmosis?
A the surface area of a cell membrane increases, the ability of the cell to efficiently deliver nutrients to the organelles _____________.
What is decreases?
The system responsible for filtering blood and removing excess water and liquid waste from the body.
What is the Excretory System?
The system made up of muscles, tendons, and ligaments, and enables you to move and also allows substances to move through the body.
What is the Muscular System?
The system made up of several hormone producing glands that regulate body functions.
What is the Endocrine System?
The system that protects the body by destroying and removing invading organisms and abnormal cells.
What is the Lymphatic System?
The system that breaks down food into smaller particles so that nutrients can be absorbed by the blood and transported to all cells
What is the Digestive System?
The system made up of bones and cartilage, and is responsible for support and movement.
What is the Skeletal System?
The system made up of skin, hair, nails, and sweat glands, and is responsible for protection and maintaining normal body temperature.
What is the Integumentary System?
The system made up of the brain, spinal chord, and nerves, and is responsible for sending and receiving messages throughout the body..
What is the Nervous System?
The system made up of the heart, blood vessels, and blood, and is responsible for delivering nutrients, moving gasses, and removing waste products.
What is the Circulatory System?
The system that allows oxygen from the air to enter the body and waste carbon dioxide to exit the body.
What is the Respiratory System?
