Cells-Study Guide

1. You were unicellular before birth as all organisms start as a single cell. 2. Cells work together to form tissues, tissues form organs, and organs work together to form organ systems. 3. If one part of an organ fails, the entire organ system would fail as organs rely on all their parts functioning properly.

3. What would happen if one part of an organ failed? The whole organ system would fail

4. What are examples of organs in humans/animals? What are examples of organs in


plants? Heart; leaves

5. Unicellular— An organism that is just one cell.

6. Mulitcellular— An organism that has more than one cell

7. Robert Hooke— First to use term cell

8. Anton von Leeuwenhock— Found microscopic organisms

9. Matthias Schleiden— Concluded that all plants have cells

10. Theodor Schwann— All animals are made up of cells

12. What are the three parts of the cell theory? All organisms are made u of one or more
cells. All cells come from other cells. The cell is the basic unit of life.

13. What are characteristics of all cells? cell membrane, DNA, cytoplasm and some
organelles, and are small

14. What are the two types of cells? prokaryotic and eukaryotic

15. What are the characteristics of a prokaryotic cells? DNA is circular, ribosomes, no
nucleus, most have a cell wall, and do not have membrane covered organelles

16. What is another name for a prokaryotic cell? Bacteria

17. What are the characteristics of a eukaryotic cell? has a nucleus, more DNA, linear DNA,
has membrane covered organelles.

19. What are the differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells? look at 15 and 16

20. Give the function of the following organelles or cell structures:

 Cell membrane Keeps the cytoplasm in. Lets things in Keeps things out.
 Nucleus Is the Control center. Contains the DNA
 Nucleolus Inside the nucleus. Has the materials to make the ribosomes
 Ribosomes Makes the proteins
 Endoplasmic reticulum transports everything within the cell. Rough has
ribosomes but smooth doesn’t
 Mitochondria the power plant of the cell
 Chloroplasts Holds chlorophyll and photosynthesis takes place here.
 Golgi complex Packages and sends proteins out of the cell.
 Water vacuoles Contains the water for the cell
 Vesicles the packages that the complex sends out
