Answer 1

Nucleus
Other internal compartments
More complex
Larger

Question 2

Prokaryotic cells

Answer 2

No nucleus
No internal compartments
Less complex
Smaller

Question 3

Endosymbiont Hypothesis

Answer 3

Eukaryotic cells were the result of prokaryotic cells coming together

Question 4

Where are prokaryotic cells found?

Answer 4

Archaea and bacteria

Question 5

What do eukaryotic cells make up?

Answer 5

The bodies of animals, plants, fungi, and protists

Question 6

Organelle

Answer 6

Distinct structure that is designed to carry out specialized task(s) for the cell

Question 7

Nucleus

Answer 7

Contains the cell’s chromosomes. It’s genes control the growth and activities of the cell

Question 8

Mitochondrion

Answer 8

Almost every eukaryotic cell has at least 1.

Site of cellular respiration. (Uses oxygen time break down food, molecules, ATP, etc.)

Question 9

Cell membrane

Answer 9

Outer layer of cell. Controls what enters and exists a cell.

Question 10

Chloroplast

Answer 10

Only found in organisms that do photosynthesis. Uses light energy to make glucose (sugar). Basis of most food chains.

Question 11

Ribosome

Answer 11

Small organelle, each eukaryotic cell has many. Proteins are made at these.

Question 12

Protista

Answer 12

Refers to all species of single cell eukaryotes.

Question 13

Kingdom Plantae, Animalia, and Fungi

Answer 13

Multi-cellular eukaryotes

Question 14

Protist 3 main groups

Answer 14

Slime molds
Phytoplankton
Protozoa/zooplankton

Question 15

Slime molds

Answer 15

Fungus-like protists

Like true fungi, can use spores to reproduce

Question 16

Phytoplankton

Answer 16

Plant-like protists

Like plants, uses photosynthesis because they have chloroplast

Question 17

Protozoa/zooplankton

Answer 17

Animal-like protists
