| cell | basic unit of life |
| cell membrane | composed of a phospholipid bilayer, controls what enters and leaves the cell |
| nucleus | control center of the cell |
| prokaryote | a cell that doesn't have a nucleus such as bacteria |
| eukaryote | a cell that has a nucleus such as plant, animal, fungi and protist cells |

| Golgi apparatus | packages proteins that are made in the cell |
| cell wall | outer support structure of plant and fungal cells, made of a complex carbohydrate known as cellulose |
| cellulose | component of plant cell walls, a complex carbohydrate |
| resolution | a microscope's capacity to distinguish different objects that are close to one another |
| Redi | disproved flies came from rotten meat by doing exp. with clay pots |
| Pasteur | helped to gain acceptance of the theory of biogenesis |
| Biogenesis | the theory that living things come from living things |
| Abiogenesis | the theory that living things come from non living thins |
| Virchow, Schleiden, Schawnn | developed what is now known as the cell theory |
| Hooke | described box like chambers in cork and called them cells |
| homeostasis | the process of adjusting to change to keep things in balance |
| characteristics of life | reproduce, exhibit growth, exhibit homeostasis, organized, made of cells, energy req,. |
| Leuwenhoek | invented the first microscope |
| Mr. Peabody | Time traveler that took you back into time |
| Field of view | the area that you see when looking through the microscope |
| diaphragm | allows you to regulate the amount of light |
| objective lenses | magnify objects that cannot be seen with the naked eye |
| independent variable | the thing in the experiment that you are testing, you have control of it |
| dependent variable | The result of the independent variable. |
| Cell wall | Only found in producer cells and it separates the cell from its environment |
| Prokaryotic | primitive cell that lacks all membrane bounded organelles |
| consumer cells | cheek, blood |
| producer cells | onion, elodea, cork, plant |
| Scienctific method | a logical way of trying to solve a problem |
| Nuclear envelope | Separates and regulates materials in an out of the nucleus |
| location | the difference between nucleoplasm and cytoplasm |
| tissue | a group of similar cells that work together to carry out or perform a common function |
| system | a group of organs that work together |
| cell | basic unit of life from which all living things are made |
| cellular level of organization | cell, tissue, organ, system, organism |
| depth of field | increases when switching from high power to low power. |
| total magnification | the ocular power times the objective power |
| stain | used to make cells easier to see |
| cheek cells | irregular in shape, had a visible nucleus, cell membrane and cytoplasm |
| cork cell | dead cell, consisting of only a cell wall |
| nucleolus | small circular structures found inside the nucleus and thougt to be involved in protein synthesis |
| chromosomes | genetic material found in the nucleus |
| lysosome | special type of vacuole that contains digestive enzymes that break down large molecules into small ones |
| vacuole | stores wastes, water and food in plant cells |
| gated channels | one mechanism of getting materials through the cell membrane |
| pinocytotic vessicles | when the cell membrane either pushes in or out allowing large molecules to either enter or leave the cell. |
| microville | creates more surface area on the cell membrane to allow more materials into or out of the cell |
