Transcript Cell Benchmark Review Game

Before game:
• Per team, obtain a whiteboard,
eraser, & marker.
• Come up with a team name & write it
on the top of your whiteboard.
Always keep your team name on the
top of your whiteboard.
• Hold your whiteboard up when you
are ready!

Final Jeopardy
Cells in solutions
Final Jeopardy
hypertonic
A chicken egg placed in a
sugary solution will shrivel
overnight; this is because the
egg was in this type of
solution
The Jeopardy champion!
$200
nucleus
This cell organelle is known
as the control center of the
cell
$400
mitochondria
This cell organelle is known
as the “powerhouse” of the
cell.
$600
lysosomes
This cell organelle
contains digestive
enzymes
$800
Golgi apparatus
This cell organelle sorts
proteins into packages and
packs them into vesicles
$1000
Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)
This is the site of cellular
chemical reactions
$200
carbon
All organic molecules contain
this element.
$400
Carbon & hydrogen.
Lipids contain a lot of these
two elements
$600
nitrogen
Unlike carbohydrates and lipids,
proteins and nucleic acids
contain this element
$800
protein
Enzymes are categorized as
this type of biomolecule
$1000
To speed up chemical
reactions
This is the purpose of an
enzyme

2
The plasma membrane is
made up of how many layers
of phospholipids?
$400
tail
Is the head or tail of a
phospholipid hydrophobic?
$600
Semi-permeable
Since the plasma membrane
only allows certain
substances to pass through it,
it is called this.
$800
proteins
When larger molecules must
pass into or out of the cell,
they must go through these
$1000
homeostasis
The process of maintaining
balance in a cell’s
environment is called what?
$200
microscope
This instrument allowed us to
view cells for the first time.
$400
1. All organisms made of cells, 2. cells
basic unit of life, 3. cells come from cells
Give one main idea of the cell
theory.
$600
prokaryote
This is another word or a cell
without a nucleus
$800
Plant cell (or bacterial cell)
This type of cell has a cell
wall.
$1000
Hypotonic solution
A cell in this type of solution
may burst.
$200
life
“bio” is latin for this.
$400
evolution
The gradual change in a
species through adaptations
over time is called this
$600
Scientific method
The steps that scientists use
to gather info and answer
questions is called this
$800
reproduction
This is one of the
characteristics of life and
involves the production of
offspring
$1000
adapt
This characteristic of life
enables an organism to
respond to environmental
factors and live to produce
offspring.
$200
osmosis
The diffusion of water is
called this
$400
basic
A cell in a pH of 8 would be
in this type of solution
$600
Water-loving
What does hydrophilic mean?
$800
Active transport
The diffusion of particles,
besides water, from an area of
LOW concentration to HIGH
concentration is called this.

Water is attracted to the head
or tail of a phospholipid?
