Final Jeopardy

10 points

What is the name of the cell structure through which water and other material must pass?

10 points

Plasma Membrane

20 points

What is the process by which water passes from

high concentration through a membrane to low

concentration?

20 points

Osmosis

30 points

What is the function of transport proteins?

30 points

Allows medium-sized molecules or substances to travel in and out of a

cell

40 points

How does cholesterol benefit the plasma

membrane?

40 points

Cholesterol keeps the plasma membrane fluid because it does not allow the fatty acid

tails to stick together

50 points

What molecule transmits information into the cell – is

used by other cells to identify what type of cell it

is?

50 points

Carbohydrate chain

10 points

What part of a plant cell is a thick outer layer that gives

strength and makes it rigid?

10 points

Cell Wall

20 points

When did the cell theory become an accepted part of

biology?a.1620’sb.1850’sc.1920’sd.1980’s

20 points

The cell theory become the basis of Biology in

the 1850’s

 30 points

Which part of plant cells turns sunlight into energy?

30 points

Chloroplasts

40 points

In the plasma membrane, explain how the individual

phospholipid molecules can move in relation to other phospholipid molecules?

40 points

Phospholipid molecules can move

around, take the place of others within the

same layer

50 points

When dynamic equilibrium is reached, describe the

connection between the plasma membrane and the motion of small molecules

50 pointsThe plasma membrane

allows small molecules to continue to move across – but when one moves across, another must move back across to

allow the cell to maintain dynamic equilibrium

10 points

What does the mitochondria do in a cell?

10 points

Converts energy into usable energy for the cell

20 points

What part of the cell makes proteins?

20 points

Ribosome

30 points

Where is most of the DNA located in a cell?

30 points

Nucleus

40 pointsA scientist at the polar ice cap was studying an ice sample and found some cells and were able to

identify these cell structures: cytoskeleton, mitochondria,

nucleus, cell wall and ribosomes. What basic kind of organism did they find?

40 points

Since the cell had a cell wall and nucleus – they have a plant (which is eukaryotic)

50 points

What is the name of specialized compartments

in a cell that carry out specific functions?

50 points

Organelles

10 points

How are mitochondria and chloroplasts alike?

10 points

They both produce energy

20 points

What do plant cells have that animal cells don't have?

20 points

Cell walls or chloroplasts

30 points

What is the biggest part of an animal cell?

30 points

Nucleus

40 points

What is the maximum magnification of both an

electron microscope AND a compound light

microscope?

40 points• Compound light microscope

magnifies up to 1000 times• Electron microscope

magnifies 500,000 times

50 points

What is the biggest part of a plant cell?

50 points

Central Vacuole

10 points

You are looking through your microscope, and you cannot see the entire object you are observing under high power, what can you do to be able to see the entire object within your field of view?

10 points

Reduce your magnification – change

the microscope from high power to low power

20 points

What type of cell is complex and has a nucleus?

20 points

Eukaryotic Cell

30 points

Who invented the microscope?

30 points

Anton VonLeevonhoek in the early 1600’s

40 points

What major organelle is a prokaryotic cell missing?

40 points

Nucleus

50 points

What is an example of a prokaryotic cell?

50 points

Bacteria

Final Jeopardy

Besides the nucleus that contains DNA from both mom and dad, which

organelle also contains DNA – which ironically only is passed down

from your Mother

Final Jeopardy Answer

Mitochondria
