• Resolution is the ability to distinguish two separate points or objects.

• The compound microscope was invented by Anton van Leeuwenhoek.

• The smallest unit of life is the cell.

Page 2:

• The compound microscope uses light to magnify objects.

• It can magnify objects 400 to 1000 times.

Page 3:

• The transmission electron microscope was first invented in 1932.

• It uses a beam of electrons to magnify the specimen.

• It can magnify up to 600,000 times.

Page 4:

• The scanning electron microscope passes a beam of electrons over the specimen.

• It projects a 3D image onto a computer.

• The topic is "The Cell."

Page 6:

• Atoms are groups of protons, electrons, and neutrons.

• Molecules are groups of atoms.

• Organelles are specialized parts of cells.

• Cells are the smallest unit of life.

• Tissues are groups of similar cells.

• Organs are groups of tissues with a function.

• Systems are groups of organs with a purpose.

• Organisms are single lifeforms.

Page 7:

• A cell is the smallest functional unit of life.

• All living things are composed of cells.

Page 8:

• All living things share five characteristics: reproduction, need for energy, production of waste, growth, and response and adaptation to the environment.

Page 9:

• The cell theory states that all organisms are composed of one or more cells.

• The cell is the smallest functional unit of life.

• All cells are produced from other cells.

Page 10:

• There are two types of cells: prokaryotic and eukaryotic.

Page 11:

• Prokaryotic cells are represented by a diagram.

Page 12:

• Eukaryotic cells are represented by a diagram.

Page 13:

• Prokaryotic cells have no organized nucleus, and genetic material is in the cytoplasm.

Page 14:

• Bacteria and blue-green algae are examples of prokaryotic cells.

Page 15:

• Prokaryotic cells have no organized nucleus, and genetic material is in the cytoplasm.

• The chromosome may be in a circular shape called a plasmid.

Page 16:

• A diagram shows a plasmid.

Page 17:

• The process of cloning using recombinant DNA is described.

Page 18:

• Prokaryotic cells have no organized nucleus, and genetic material is in the cytoplasm.

• The chromosome may be in a circular shape called a plasmid.

• Prokaryotic cells have no organized organelles except for ribosomes.

• They are smaller than eukaryotic cells.

• Prokaryotic cells are the oldest known form of life.

Page 19:

• A diagram shows the anatomy of a bacterium.

Page 20:

• Eukaryotic cells have an organized nucleus and organelles.

• They are larger than prokaryotic cells.

Page 21:

• There are two types of eukaryotic cells: plant and animal.

Page 22:

• Plant cells and animal cells differ in several ways.

• Only plant cells contain chloroplasts.

• Plant cells contain a large central vacuole.

• Only plant cells contain a cell wall.

• Only animal cells contain lysosomes.

• Animal cells have centrioles.

Page 23:

• The structure and function of the nucleus are described.

• The nucleus controls the daily activities of the cell.

Page 24:

• Inside the nucleus, there is a nucleolus.

• The nucleolus produces RNA and ribosomes.

Page 25:

• Inside the nucleus, DNA is organized into multiple, linear chromosomes.

• Chromatin represents the mass of stringy, entangled chromosomes observed during interphase.

Page 26:

• A diagram shows a human chromosome.

Page 27:

• The nucleoplasm is a jelly-like fluid that supports the contents of the nucleus.

Page 28:

• The cytoplasm is a gel-like substance inside the cell.

• It dissolves nutrients throughout the cell and suspends organelles.

Page 29:

• The mitochondrion is an organelle within all cells.

• It looks like a long worm inside a sandwich bag.

• It is the powerhouse of the cell and produces ATP.

Page 30:

• Vacuoles are hollow organelles used for storage within the cell.

• Plant cells contain a large central vacuole.

Page 31:

• A diagram shows a eukaryotic plant cell and a eukaryotic animal cell.

Page 32:

• Ribosomes are small organelles responsible for protein synthesis.

Page 33:

• The endoplasmic reticulum is a long system of tubes and canals throughout the cell.

• It provides for intracellular transport of molecules.

• There are two types of endoplasmic reticulum: rough ER and smooth ER.

Page 34:

• A diagram shows the structure of the endoplasmic reticulum.

Page 35:

• Both rough ER and smooth ER are present in the cell.

Page 36:

• The Golgi complex looks like a stack of pancakes.

• It packages materials for export and facilitates intercellular transport.

Page 37:

• Lysosomes are spherical bodies that contain enzymes for intracellular digestion.

Page 38:

• A diagram shows the mitochondrion, lysosomes, and Golgi complex.

Page 39:

• Centrioles are rod-like structures containing microtubules.

• They are involved in cell division in animals.

Page 40:

• A diagram shows centrioles, spindle fibers, and chromosomes.

Page 41:

• Chloroplasts are organelles found only in plant cells.

• They capture light energy and are the site of photosynthesis.

Page 42:

• The cell wall is the thick outer wall of a plant cell.

• It provides structure and support to the plant.

Page 43:

• The cell membrane retains cell contents and controls what enters and leaves the cell.

Page 44:

• A diagram shows the structure of the cell membrane.
