AB
CellBasic unit of all living things
CellSmallest unit that can carry on life processes
CellsAll living things are made of ___

Discovery of light microscope and the upgradeDiscovery of cells began with ___
Light MicroscopeMagnifies up to 2,000x
TEM1,000x stronger than light microscope
SEMProduces 3D image
1665Year cells were discovered
Robert HookeEnglish Scientist
Robert HookeFirst to look at dead cells
Robert HookeCut a slice of cork and looked at it under microscope
Robert HookeSaw cork was made of little boxes that reminded him of the cells that monks lived in
Anton von LeeuwenhoekDutch microscope maker
Anton von LeeuwenhoekFirst to discover living cells
1675Year living cells were discovered
Schleiden, Schwann, VirchowCell theory developed on discoveries of these 3 scientists
SchleidenGerman botanist
SchleidenDiscovered plants were made of cells
SchwannGerman zoologist
SchwannDiscovered animals were made of cells
VirchowGerman physician
VirchowDiscovered cells come from existing cells
Cell is the basic unit of structure and function in living things. All living things are made of cells. Cells come from existing cells.Cell Theory
Size, shape, internal organizationCells differ in ___
Ratio between it's volume and it's surface areaCells are limited in size by ___
ShapeCells have a variety of ___ based on function
EukaryotesHave cells that have a nucleus and organelles
Plants, animals, fungi, protozoa, algaeExamples of eukaryotes
ProkaryoteCells that lack a nucleus and organelles
BacteriaExample of prokaryotes
OrganellesCell component that performs specific functions in the cell
Plasma membraneAnother name for cell membrane
Cell membraneOuter boundary, seperate it from the external environment
Cell membraneComplex barrier that keeps some things out but lets others in
Cell membraneMade of two layers
Lipids and proteins2 layers of cell membrane
CytoplasmJelly like material inside the cell membrane
CytoplasmSurrounds organelles
Cytoplasmic streamingConstant motion of cytoplasm that moves organelles around
OrganellesName means "little organ"
RibosomesProtein factory of the cell
RibosomesSmall, round structures where proteins are made
RibosomesCite of protein synthesis
Protein and nucleic acidsRibosomes are made of ___
In cytoplasm and attached to ER2 places ribosomes are found
In cytoplasmRibosomes found ___ make proteins that are used in the cell
Attached to ERRibosomes found ___ make proteins that are used outside of the cell
Endoplasmic ReticulumER
ERMembrane system of folded sacs and tunnels
Rough and smooth2 types of ER
Rough ERType of ER that has ribosomes
Smooth ERType of ER that has no ribosomes
Smooth ERActs as an intracellular highway
Intracellular highwayPath for molecules to move from one part of the cell to another
Smooth ERStores proteins that will be exported
Golgi ApparatusProcessing, packaging, and secreting organelles
Golgi Apparatus"Factory" of the cell
Golgi ApparatusMade of stack of sacs filled with fluid
Golgi ApparatusOperates like a production line
VesicleMembranous pouch
Mitochondria"Powerhouse" of the cell
MitochondriaOval structures that are the respiration centers
RespirationProcess that releases chemical energy from food molecules for the cell to use
MitochondriaHas 2 membranes
Smooth outer and inner folded2 membranes of mitochondria
Smooth outerType of membrane (mitochondria) that seperates it from cytoplasm
Inner foldedType of membrane (mitochondria) that is folded to increase the amount of surface area available for energy releasing actions to take place
CristaeLong folds of mitochondria's inner membrane
MitochondriaATP is formed here
ATPProvides the chemical energy that drives all cell reactions
MitochondriaThese are more numerous in cells that need a lot of energy
Muscles and liverExamples of cells that need a lot of energy
MitochondriaHave their own DNA and new ones can only come from existing ones
MitochondriaMay have developed when prokaryote cells wanted to be protected by living inside eukaryotic cells and in return became energy source
LysosomesSmall round organelles containing digestive enzymes
Lysosomes"Clean-up Crews" of the cell
Animal and fungalLysosomes are found mainly in ___ cells
LysosomesDigest food particles, bacteria, and worn out cell parts
Golgi ApparatusLysosomes are made by ___
Microtubules and microfilamentsHelp support cell and give it shape
Microtubules and microfilaments Make up the cytoskeleton
MicrofilamentFine protein threads
MicrofilamentLie just under cell membrane
MicrofilamentPlay a role in cytoplasmic streaming
MicrofilamentHelp move cell materials around
MicrotubulesLong slender protein tubes
Spindle fibersSpecialized microtubules
Spindle fibersAid in the movement of chromosomes during cell division
Cilia and flagella2 kinds of structures that extend from a cell's surface
CiliaShort, hairlike extensions that occur in large numbers on a cell's surface
CiliaFound in lining of the surface of organs to move fluids and mucus
CiliaMove mucus in the lungs that traps dust and bacteria
FlagellaWhip-like extensions of a cell that occurs singly or in pairs
NucleusControl center of the cell
NucleusSite where nucleic acids are made
RNA and DNANucleic acids made by nucleus
Nuclear envelopeSurrounds nucleus
Nuclear envelopeDouble membrane with pores that is continuous with the ER
NucleoplasmDense, protein rich substance inside the nuclear membrane
NucleoplasmContains chromatin
ChromatinFine strands of DNA and protein
ChromosomeFormed during cell division when chromatin coils and shortens
ChromosomeStucture made mostly of DNA
DNAGenetic material of a cell
NucleolusRound structure that makes ribosomes
Cell wall, vacuoles, and plastids3 additions of a plant cell compared to an animal cell
Cell wallRigid covering that surrounds cell membrane
Cell wall Helps support and protect the cell
Chains of celluloseCell wall is made of ___
Pectin and lignin2 hardening compounds
Primary and secondary2 types of cell walls
Primary cell wallCell wall formed during growth
Primary cell wallCell wall made of cellulose
Secondary cell wallCell wall formed after growth stops
Secondary cell wallCell wall made of cellulose and lignin
LigninMakes plants woody
Middle lamellaIntracellular "glue"
Middle lamella Found between cell walls of adjacent plant cells
PectinMiddle lamella is made of ___
PectinStuff that makes jelly a gel
VacuolesSimilar to lysosomes bc they store enzymes and wastes
90Vacuoles can take up to ___% of plant cell
VacuolesMay contain toxins and keeps them away from the rest of the cell
PlastidsStructures that capture sunlight and convert it to chemical energy
Chloroplasts, chromoplasts, leukoplasts3 types of plastids
ChloroplastsContain chlorophyll
ChlorophyllGreen pigment
ChromoplastStores the other colored pigments for fall colors
