you have more cells

Which statement is a part of the cell theory? 1. all cells come from preexisting cells 2. bacteria are prokaryotic cells 3 eukaryotic cells are complex 4. humans are multicellular
1. all cells come from preexisting cells
The development of the cell theory was most directly related to the 1. improvement of the microscope and microscopic techniques 2. development of the gene-chromosome theory 3. discovery of bacteria and viruses 4. use of a five-kingdom classification system
1. improvement of the microscope and microscopic techniques
Which cell structure is correctly paired with its primary function? 1. ribosome- protein synthesis 2. vacuole- cell division 3. mitochondrion- movement 4. nucleus- storage of nutrients
1. ribosome- protein synthesis
Which statement reflects one of the major components of the cell theory? 1. All living things are multi-cellular. 2. Organs are the basic unit of structure and function for all living things. 3. All cells come from previously existing cells. 4. Every organism has a reproductive system to ensure survival of the species.
3. All cells come from previously existing cells
Which statement is true about viruses? 1. Viruses can eat and metabolize food. 2. Viruses can reproduce on their own at any time 3. Viruses can reproduce only using a host cell. 4. Viruses contain DNA, so they are alive.
3. Viruses can reproduce only using a host cell.
Which cell structure is correctly paired with its primary function? 1. ribosome-movement 2. vacuole-cell division 3. mitochondrion-conversion of food energy into the energy of ATP 4. nucleus-storage of nutrient
3. mitochondrion-conversion of food energy into the energy of ATP
Which of the following structures is not found in bacteria 1. ribosome 2. cytoplasm 3. cell membrane 4. nuclear membrane
3.nuclear membrane
cell
Basic unit of structure
hooke
Discovered cells
What would most likely happen if the ribosomes in a cell were not functioning?
The synthesis of enzymes would stop
Every year people are hospitalized with simple bacterial infections. These infections can result in amputation of the infected area to save the person from death. The persistent use of what modern technology has caused the rise in resistant bacteria?
antibiotics
Which of the following structures are present in all eukaryotic cells?
cell membrane and nuclear membrane
Which structure is found in a plant cell but not in an animal cell? 1. cell wall 2. Cytoplasm 3. cell membrane 4. nucleus
cell wall
The basic unit of structure and function of organisms
cells
tissue
cells that perform the same function
Chromosomes
contains code which guides all cell activities
Nucleus
contains information to run cell - cells brain or computer
Lysosome
digestion center
what is the main difference between the proka and euk cells
eukaryotic cells have a more advanced cellular organization
Because they have the same DNA and come from the same single cell, all of the cells in a human look the same
false
A scientist uses a microscope to examine two slides of living bacteria. Each slide contains a different type of bacteria. While the cells on the first slide are moving rapidly, the cells on the second slide are stationary. Based on these observations, the cells on the second slide most likely have no....
flagella
Muscle cells in athletes often have more mitochondria than muscle cells in nonathletes. Based on this observation, it can be inferred that the muscle cells in athletes
have a greater demand for energy than the muscle cells of nonathletes
Unlike eukaryotes, prokaryotes do not have
membrane bound nucleus
Viruses are considered an exception to the cell theory because they normally reproduce
only in a host cell
Which structures carry out life functions within cells?
organelles
endoreticulum
passageways through the cell
A scraping of material from a person's tooth revealed many bacteria found on the tooth surface. Such bacteria remain attached to the tooth surface by structures called
pili
Golgi Bodies
receive and send cell materials
In a cell, information that controls the production of proteins/enzymes must pass from the nucleus to the
ribosomes
What structure can be found in all living cells?
ribosomes
Bacteria are classified by what shapes
rod, sphere, spiral
Pieces of the ______ ER called vesicles pinch off and travel other places in the cell to transfer their contents
smooth
cell membrane
stores and releases chemicals
Vacuole
stores food and waste aka the cells warehouse
Plastid
stores food or contains pigment (in plants)
