Cell Organelle and Cell Environment Test Study Guide
by Mr. Carrison - Gates Intermediate School, Scituate, MA 
Yuck, Plant Cells! Is it true that I am made of a trillion cells? What is a trillion? What the heck is a cell? Can I eat one? Are cats made of cells? Yum, cat.......
Check out the 4 NEW study guide questions!
Check out this site for a neat online cell parts test/quiz http://www.biologycorner.com/bio1/cellquiz.html
Might also check out Tess's cool blog. Has some nice cell links and of course awesome picts for Flash the Wonder Hound.

Test Next Friday! Will cover all the parts of the cell that I tricked you into reviewing in class! So... I would know ALL the many cell organelles and what job/function they perform in the cell. You should also know the info on pages 32-41 in our NEW textbook.
1. Compare and contrast osmosis and diffusion.
2. What the heck is ACTIVE and PASSIVE transport all about?
3. What causes diffusion, that is what "powers" it and why does it happen?
4. Why are proteins often called the molecules of life?
5. Where are proteins synthesized in the cell?
6. What is the powerhouse of the cell?
7. What is my fav word? Can you explain what is is of does for the cell?
8. Do animal cells have a cell wall? Why or why not needed?
9. Yuck, what is cytoplasm?

17. What is all the hub-bub about photosynthesis? What is it? Why the big deal?
18. Can you give an analogy for all of the above mentioned organelles?
19. What is cellular hierarchy? Can you list all 5?
20. Would it be worth your time to find all the cell MCAS questions and review them?
21. What was the demo in class? It demonstrated how what worked?
22. What is the difference between a plant and animal cell?
23. Explain what cellular respiration is and why it is sooooooooo important!
24. Where does cellular respiration take place?
25. What is needed for products to perform cellular respiration?
26. What is the by-product of cellular respiration?
27. Should you take the time to review all the worksheets used in class?
28. Review Atoms - what are the 3 major parts? Do they have charges?
29. What by definition is a molecule?
30. Does the DOE MCAS web site have any questions on cells? Hum......
31. Flash thinks you should know all about the demonstrations and experiments I did in class this week. Pretty smart for such a lazy hound!
