What do you get if you combine all the colours in the visible light spectrum?
White light
This system sends messages between the brain and body
Nervous
A rigid layer with the primary purpose of protecting and providing support for the cell.
Cell wall
This colour is made from the combination of blue light and red light
Magenta
Cone cells found in the retina are used to detect what?
Coloured light
This organelle is a large membrane in the cell that is filled with fluid. It helps maintain the shape of the cell.
Vacuole
If the angle of incidence measures 55 degrees, what is the angle of reflection?
55 degrees
This organelle is responsible for making ribosomes.
Nucleolus
The ideas that: All living things are made up of cells, cells are the basic units of life, and all cells are created from existing cells is referred to as..
The Cell Theory
What colour has the longest wavelength, or the lowest frequency?
Red
This system brings oxygen into the body and expels carbon dioxide
Respiratory system
An organism that is made up of only one cell that carries out all the functions needed by the organism.
Unicellular
The part of the eye that refracts the most light entering the eye?
Cornea
A material that allows light to pass through unaffected, an object appears clear through it.
Transparent
If a light ray passes from air into glass at an angle, what happens to the refracted light ray?
It bends toward the normal.
An organism that is made of more than one cell, with groups of cells taking on different specialized functions.
This is a barrier around the cell. It is semi-permeable, meaning that it allows some things to enter the cell while other things are excluded. It's role is to control the entry and exit of various substances in the cell.
Cell membrane
This organelle produce energy necessary for the cell’s survival and functioning. The energy is converted from glucose into ATP (adenosine triphosphate) which is usable energy.
Mitochondria
This provides support for the internal structures of the cell. It contains the cell's organelles.
Cytoplasm
A lens that magnifies the specimen. It typically magnifies by 10 times.
Eyepiece
The stage is the location where the slide is placed for observing.
Stage
These organelles contain chlorophyll, which is required for photosynthesis.
Chloroplasts
What is the frequency of a wave that passes a point 18 times in 2 seconds.
9 Hertz
What are the four types of tissue?
Nervous, muscle, connective, epithelial
What will happen when white light passes through yellow glass.
Red and green light pass through and the others are absorbed.
This system controls the movement of blood through the human body
Circulatory system
This organelle is the control centre of the cell. The nucleus also stores DNA and genetic information required for cell division and growth.
Nucleus
This organelle is a network of bubbles and tubes that are either rough or smooth. It helps to modify and transport proteins.
Endoplasmic reticulum
What is the acronym that can help you remember the order of the visible spectrum?
ROY G BIV
What type of electromagnetic radiation has the longest wavelength?
Radio waves
The height of the wave from the rest position is called
Amplitude
This organelle sorts important proteins and fats in the cell before they are delivered to their next destination.
Golgi apparatus
A material that prevents visible light from passing through it, an object cannot be seen through such a medium
opaque
Far sighted vision is corrected with what type of lens?
Convex
