5 Written Questions

1. A microscope that is similar in purpose to a light microscope, but achieves much greater magnification by using a parallel beam of electrons to scan the object.
2. One of the basic principles of biology. All living things are made of cells. Cells are the basic unit of function and structure in all living things. Cells can only come from other cells.
3. A large, complex molecule that carries or contains information to run a cell.
4. The basic unit of structure and function in all living things.
5. A semi-rigid, permeable structure that envelopes most plant cells. Made of cellulose.

4 True/False Questions

1. Mitochondrion → A specialized part of the cell (mini organs) that helps to organize cell functions. Floats in cytoplasm. Only found in eukaryotic cells.

   True        False

2. Eukaryotic Cell → The most primitive cell. Lacks organelles and a nucleus. DNA is free-floating in cytoplasm. Smaller and simpler than eukaryotic cells.

   True        False

3. Cytoplasm → Gelatin like material (think Jello®) found within a cell membrane. Some cell functions occur here. Cell parts float in it.

   True        False

4. Organelle → The basic unit of structure and function in all living things.
