Matthias Schleiden contributed to the cell theory by concluding that

all plant parts were made of cells

prokaryotes that include such types as heat-loving, salt-loving, and methane-making

archaea

an organelle that contains the cell's DNA

nucleus

Robert Hooke and Anton van Leeuwenhoek not only helped discover cells but also

helped develop the mircroscope

What part of the cell forms a barrier between the cell and its environment?

cell membrane

What part of the cell keeps the cell membrane from collapsing?

cytoskeleton

word that describes most organisms that you can see with your naked eye **hint more than one cell

muticellular

What is the smallest unit that can perform all the processes necessary for life

cell

Leeuwenhoek called the single-celled organisms "animalcules" Today we call them

protists

What cell parts carry materials between organelles such as the ER and the Golgi complex?

vesicles

The part of the cell that keeps the cytoplasm inside and controls what goes in and out of the cell

cell membrane

a single-celled organism that has no nucleus or membrane-bound organelles

prokaryote

Energy released by a cell's mitochondrion is stored in

ATP

the smallest and most common form of prokaryotes, containing DNA, ribosomes, and a flagelllum

bacteria

What cell part is only found in a plant cell

cell wall

organisms made up of cells that have a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles

eukaryotes

Ribosomes, the organelles that make proteins, are found on the membranes of the

endoplasmic reticulum

The function of a part of an organism is related to its

structure

A cell's nucleus contains DNA which carries genetic material with instructions on how to make

protein

structures that are usually surrounded by membranes and which perform specific functions within the cell

organelles
