STRUCTURE

Front

an object's arrangement of its parts or elements

Back

PROTISTA

Front

The kingdom of plant-like and animal-like organisms that can be single or multi-celled.

Back

CELL

Front

the basic structural unit of living things; the smallest unit of life

Back

CELLULAR RESPIRATION

Front

the process that breaks down food molecules to release energy

Back

EUKARYOTE

Front

cells that have a nucleus and specialized structures that are bound by membranes

Back

PLANTAE

Front

The kingdom to which plants belong; their cells have cell walls, chloroplasts, and vacuoles unlike animal cells.

Back

AEROBIC

Front

type of respiration that involves oxygen

Back

NUCLEUS

Front

contains the cells DNA, or genetic information

Back

ATP

Front

the molecule in living that that is used directly for energy

Back

MITOCHONDRIA

Front

the organelle that produces energy for the cell

Back

ANIMALIA

Front

The kingdom to which animals belong

Back

CHLOROPLAST

Front

the organelle that produces glucose in plants

Back

BACTERIA

Front

Simple, one-celled organisms that lack a nucleus. Some cause disease while others are helpful.

Back

PHOTOSYNTHESIS

Front

the process that converts light energy into chemical energy

Back

VACUOLE

Front

the organelle in plant cells that store water and regulates pressure in the cell

Back

ORGANELLE

Front

a specialized part of a cell that has a specific function

Back

CELL MEMBRANE

Front

the organelle that surrounds the cell and allows materials into or out of the cell

Back

CELL WALL

Front

the very outside of a plant cell

Back

OXYGEN

Front

a reactant of cellular respiration and a product of photosynthesis

Back

GLUCOSE

Front

the molecule in living things that stores energy

Back

CARBON DIOXIDE

Front

a product of cellular respiration and a reactant of photosynthesis

Back

PROKARYOTE

Front

cells that DO NOT have a nucleus or other specialized structures that are bound by membranes

Back

DNA

Front

the cell's genetic information

Back

FUNCTION

Front

an object's purpose or role

Back

CHLOROPHYLL

Front

the chemical in chloroplasts that gives plants its' green color and helps to drive photosynthesis

Back

ANAEROBIC

Front

type of respiration that occurs without oxygen

Back

FUNGI

Front

The kingdom of living things made up of organisms including mushrooms, molds, and yeasts.
