AB

Leeiwenhoek called the single-celled organisms that he found in pond scum "animalcules". Today we know them asprotists
Scientist Matthias Schleiden contributed to the cell theory bu concluding thatall plant parts were made of cells
What is not part of cell theory?Animals and plants share the same kinds of cells
Most cell are a very small size becausetheir volume is limited by how large their surface area is
the part of the cell that keeps the cytoplasm inside and controls materials going in and out of the cellcell membrane
structures that are usually surrounded by membranes and which perform specific functions within the cellorganelles
an organelle that contains the cell's deoxyribonucleic acidnucleus
a single-celled organism that has no nucleus or membrane-bounf organellesprokaryote

What part of the cell forms a barrier between the cell and its environment?cell membrane
What part of the cell keeps the cell membrane from collapsing?cytoskeleton
A cell's nuclues contains DNA, which carries genetic material withinstructions for how to make protein
Ribosomes, the organelles that make proteins, are found on the membranes of theendoplasmic reticulum
What part of the cell acts as the cell's delivery system?endoplasmic reticulum
Energy released by a cell's mitochondrion is stored inATP
What cell parts carry materials between organelles such as the ER and the golgi complex?vesicles
Larger size, longer life, and specialization are three advantages to being amulticellular organism
