6. Cells$400 A Dutch scientist, he used a simple microscope to view unicellular organisms for the first time in history. Who is Anton van Leeuwenhoek ?

7. Cells$500The work of Schleiden, Schwann, Virchow, and other biologists led to this three-part theory. What is the cell theory ?

8. Obviously Organelles$100 This is the thin membrane that separates the nucleus from the rest of the cell. What is the nuclear membrane ?

9. Obviously Organelles$200These are the two types of nucleic acids found in the nucleus. What are DNA and RNA ?

10. Obviously Organelles$300This is the large, irregular mass of threads that take up must of the space in the nucleus. What are chromosomes ?

11. Obviously Organelles$400This is a maze of tubular passageways that leads out from the nuclear membrane and helps transport proteins. What is the endoplasmic reticulum?

12. Obviously Organelles$500These small, round structures are common in animal cells, but not often observed in plant cells. What are lysosomes?

13. Lovable Life Processes$100This is the sum of all the building-up and breaking-down activities that occur in a living cell. What is metabolism?

14. Lovable Life Processes$200This is the process by which a cell releases energy from food. What is respiration?

15. Lovable Life Processes$300This is the process by which molecules of a substance move into or out of a cell. What is diffusion?

16. Lovable Life Processes$400During this process, water molecules move from a place of greater concentration to a place of lesser concentration. What is osmosis ?

17. Lovable Life Processes$500In this four-phased process, the nucleus, cytoplasm, and chromosomes divide and an identical daughter cell is formed. What is mitosis ?

18. Making Copies$100This is the process by which living things give rise to the same type of living thing. What is reproduction ?

19. Making Copies$200During this phase of mitosis, a cell performs all life processes, but is not dividing. What is interphase ?

20. Making Copies$300During this phase of mitosis, the chromosomes line up along the middle of the cell. What is metaphase ?

21. Making Copies$400This is the first phase of mitosis, when the nuclear membrane begins to disappear. What is prophase ?

22. Making Copies$500This is the phase of mitosis where the chromosomes split. What is anaphase ?
