  • Define MULTICELLULAR
    Consisting of more than 1 cell
  • What does "PERMEABLE" mean?
    Molecules are able to pass through it
  • What are the stages of mitosis in order?
    PMAT: Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase
  • What is the function of the chloroplast?
    Converts energy from the sun into glucose sugar; photosynthesis; produces food for plants
  • What organelles do BOTH plant and animal cells have?
    mitchondria, cell membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus, etc.
  • Describe a EUKARYOTIC CELL
    Plant (cell wall)/Animal cells (no cell wall), unicellular or multicellular, has a nucleus
  • What is the function of the mitochondria?
    Powerhouse; generates/supplies energy to the cell
  • What is different about the vacuole in plant and animal cells?
    Plant cells: one large (central) vacuole; anima: several small vacuoles
