| Organelle | The parts of a cell.
Each one has a specific function
🗑
|
||||
| Cell membrane | A thin, flexible barrier around the outside of all cells. This organelle controls what enters and leaves the cell (selective permeability).
🗑
|
||||
| Cell Wall | A thick protective layer around the outside of plant cells. This organelle gives plant cells a stiff and rigid shape.
🗑
|
||||
| Cytoplasm | The liquid that fills the inside of cells.
🗑
|
||||
| Nucleus | The control center of cells. Contains the DNA of the cell (in eukaryotic cells)
🗑
|
||||
| Chloroplast | The organelle that absorbs sunlight and turns it into sugar (photosynthesis)
🗑
|
||||
| Mitochondria | The organelle that converts sugar into ATP energy.
🗑
|
||||
| Ribosome | This organelle creates proteins for the cell.
🗑
|
||||
| Vacuole | The organelle that stores extra water, vitamins, and other materials.
🗑
|
||||
| Lysosome | The organelle that removes waste from the cell.
🗑

| Prokaryotic | Cells that do not have a nucleus.
🗑
|
||||
| Eukaryotic | Cells with a nucleus.
🗑
|
||||
| Unicellular | Organisms made up of only one cell.
🗑

||||
| Multicellular | Organisms made up of more than one cell.
🗑

||||
| Tissue | A group of cells working together to perform a specific function.
🗑
|
||||
| Organ | A group of tissue working together to perform a specific function.
🗑
|
||||
| Organ System | A group of organs working together to perform a specific function.
🗑
|
||||
| Regulate | To control something.
🗑
|
||||
| ATP energy | The type of energy that living things need. Produced in the mitochondria by combining sugar and oxygen.
🗑

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
To hide a column, click on the column name.
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
