Characteristics $100 Question Name three things something must have to be considered a living thing? ANSWER

Characteristics $100 Answer Cells, movement, reproduction, growth, response to stimuli BACK TO THE BOARD

Characteristics $200 Question What is the difference between non-living and dead? ANSWER

Characteristics $200 Answer Something that was dead was once alive. Something that is non-living was never living! BACK TO THE BOARD

Characteristics $300 Question Name three NEEDS of all living things. ANSWER

Characteristics $300 Answer Materials (water, food,gasses), living space, energy BACK TO THE BOARD

Characteristics $400 Question What is the difference between a unicellular organism and a multicellular organism? Give an example of each. ANSWER

Characteristics $400 Answer Unicellular organisms only have one cell like bacteria. Multicellular organisms are made of more than one cell like a tree or a human. BACK TO THE BOARD

Characteristics $500 Question What are the three parts of the cell theory? ANSWER

Characteristics $500 Answer 1. Cells carry out the functions needed to support life 2.Living things are made of one or more cells. Cells can only come from other living cells. BACK TO THE BOARD

Cells & Scopes $100 Question What part of the microscope brings a specimen into focus under low power? ANSWER

Cells & Scopes $100 Answer Coarse Adjustment Knob BACK TO THE BOARD

Cells & Scopes $200 Question What is the total magnification of a microscope with an eyepiece of 10X and a high power objective lens with 40X? ANSWER

Cells & Scopes $200 Answer 400X BACK TO THE BOARD

Cells & Scopes $300 Question Which type of cell has a cell wall, cell membrane, and chloroplasts - a muscle cell or leaf cell? ANSWER

Cells & Scopes $300 Answer Leaf Cell BACK TO THE BOARD

Cells & Scopes $400 Question Which parts of the microscope do you use to see a specimen? ANSWER

Cells & Scopes $400 Answer You look through the eyepiece and focus using an objective lens. BACK TO THE BOARD

Cells & Scopes $500 Question Which cell would have more mitochondria and WHY? A fingernail cell or a brain cell? ANSWER

Cells & Scopes $500 Answer Brain cells - mitochondria are the “powerhouse” of the cell that make energy. Brain cells require more energy than a fingernail cell and therefore have more mitochondria. BACK TO THE BOARD

More Cells $100 Question What is the function of the nucleus of a cell? ANSWER

More Cells $100 Answer The nucleus acts like the brain of the cell. BACK TO THE BOARD

More Cells $200 Question Cells are constantly taking in __________ and giving off __________. ANSWER

More Cells $200 Answer Cells are constantly taking in NUTRIENTS and giving off WASTE PRODUCTS. BACK TO THE BOARD

More Cells $300 Question Which cell organelle helps an animal cell to get rid of waste? ANSWER

More Cells $300 Answer Lysosomes BACK TO THE BOARD

More Cells $400 Question Name the three organelles that plants have and animal cells do not have. ANSWER

More Cells $400 Answer Chloroplasts, Cell Walls, and central vacuoles. BACK TO THE BOARD

More Cells $500 Question What happens if a cell organelle does not do its job? ANSWER

More Cells $500 Answer Cell function starts to break down, eventually the cell will not be able to continue causing cell death. BACK TO THE BOARD

Cell Processes $100 Question What is the difference between diffusion and osmosis? ANSWER

Cell Processes $100 Answer Diffusion is the movement of food and wastes. Osmosis is the movement of water (H 2 O) BACK TO THE BOARD

Cell Processes $200 Question What is the equation for cell respiration? How is it related to the equation for photosynthesis? ANSWER

Cell Processes $200 Answer Glucose + Oxygen = Energy + Carbon Dioxide + Water The products of cell respiration are the fuel for photosynthesis. BACK TO THE BOARD

Cell Processes $300 Question Where does photosynthesis take place? Where does cell respiration take place? ANSWER

Cell Processes $300 Answer Photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplasts of the plant cell. Cell Respiration takes place in the mitochondria of both plant and animal cells. BACK TO THE BOARD

Cell Processes $400 Question How is the energy in glucose released? ANSWER

Cell Processes $400 Answer The bonds that hold the glucose molecule together are broken down using oxygen, as the bonds break energy is released, BACK TO THE BOARD

Cell Processes $500 Question Describe the difference between passive and active transport. Give an example of each. ANSWER

Cell Processes $500 Answer Passive transport does not use energy to pass materials across the cell membrane from areas with high concentration to low, like osmosis and diffusion. Active transport uses energy to move materials in and out of the cell from low concentration to high, your blood cells and kidneys working to get rid of salt is an example. BACK TO THE BOARD

Potpourri $100 Question When carrying a microscope, where do you place your hands? ANSWER

Potpourri $100 Answer One hand holding the arm, the other hand supporting the base. BACK TO THE BOARD

Potpourri $200 Question What is the difference between a eukaryote and a prokaryote? ANSWER

Potpourri $200 Answer Eukaryotes have a nucleus to hold genetic material. Prokaryotes do not have a nucleus, genetic material is located in the cytoplasm. BACK TO THE BOARD

Potpourri $300 Question Bonus! ANSWER

Potpourri $300 Answer Subtract 300 points from the opponent OR add 300 points to your score. BACK TO THE BOARD

Potpourri $400 Question What is the function of the Endoplasmic Reticulum. ANSWER

Potpourri $400 Answer The ER makes proteins and carries them throughout the cell. BACK TO THE BOARD

DAILY DOUBLE!!!! Question

Potpourri $500 Question Explain why the water left the corn syrup egg. ANSWER

Potpourri $500 Answer Water moves form an area of high concentration to low concentration. The concentration of water was higher outside the egg so the water moved out to balance the concentration. BACK TO THE BOARD
