Midterm study guide part A

The scientist who named cells because they looked like the living quarters of monks. he also invented the microscope

Robert Hooke

The only way to tell (definitively) that an object is a living thing is by

observing cells in the object.

How Plant's get the energy they need

By breaking down glucose produced during photosynthesis

How animals get the energy they need:

By eating plants or other animals

What converts light energy into the chemical energy of sugars and oxygen.

Photosynthesis

what are Photosynthesis reactant's

sunlight, carbon dioxide and water

what does Photosynthesis Produce

oxygen and glucose

___________in the cell capture light energy

Chloroplasts

is the process by which organisms break down glucose into a form that the cell can use as energy.

Cellular Respiration

Cellular Respiration Reactants are

sugar (glucose) and oxygen

Cellular Respiration produces

carbon dioxide, water and ATP

Both plant and animal cells contain organelles called _______________which is the principal location for ________________________

mitochondria ,cellular respiration

what does the Nucleus do

directs cell actions

what does the Cell wall do

protect the cell and gives it shape

controls what materials go in and out of the cell

Cell membrane

captures light and converts it to glucose

Chloroplast

storage chamber where food, water, and wastes are stored

Vacuole

takes food particles and converts the food energy into ATP.

Mitochondria

is a form of energy that cells can ultimately use.

Atp

The difference between a plant and animal cell are

plant cells contain a cell wall and chloroplasts, animal cells do not.

is how somatic�or non-reproductive cells�divide. Somatic cells make up most of your body's tissues and organs, including skin, muscles, lungs, gut, and hair cells. Reproductive cells (like eggs) are not somatic cells. the daughter cells each have the same

Mitosis

is the other main way cells divide. cell division that creates sex cells, like female egg cells or male sperm cells. In meiosis, each new cell contains a unique set of genetic information. the sperm and egg cells can join to create a new organism.

Meiosis

true or false Prokaryotes DO NOT have a nucleus OR membrane-bound organelles while Eukaryotes do.

true

true or false eukaryotic and prokaryotic both have a cell membrane, cytoplasm, ribosomes, and genetic material.

true

organisms contain specialized cells to perform different functions. Cells divide to grow and repair.

Multicellular

true of false Cells divide to grow and repair.

true

true of false In a Unicellular function One cell must perform all functions

true

level the levels of organazation from least to greatest

organism, organ system, organ ,tissue, cell
