| cell | the basic units of living organisms |
| compound light microscope | uses a series of lenses to magnify objects in steps, can magnify up to 1500 |
| cell theory | made up of 3 ideas: all organisms are composed of one or more cells, the cell is the basic nunit of organiszation of organisms, all cells come from preexisting cells |
| electron microscope | uses a beam of electrons instead of natural light to magnify structures up to 500,000 times, 3 types, SEM (scanning) TEM (tunnling) STM (scanning and tunnling) |
| prokaryotes | unicellular organsim cell's, no membrane bound structures |
| eukaryotes | unicellular and multicellular cells that contain cell memrance bound structures. |
| organelles | the membrane bound structures |
| nucleus | the middle of the cell that manages cellular functions in membrane bound structures |
