Basic Structure of the Human Body

What is the study of the processes of living organisms?

Microscopic structures that carry on all the functions of life

MOST cells reproduce by this process

Made of DNA and protein, condenses to form rod-like structures called chromosomes

Contains digestive enzymes that digest and destroy old cells, bacteria, and foreign materials

Cell structures that help a cell to function

Located inside the nucleus and important in cell reproduction

Allows for transport of materials into and out of the nucleus and aids in synthesis of protein

The outer protective covering of the cell

The study of how disease occurs and the responses of living organisms to disease processes?

A semi-fluid inside the cell

Considered brain of the cell

Produces, stores, and packages secretions for discharge from the cell

The basic substance of all life is:

Folds in cell membrane that that allow large molecules to enter the cell

Power house of the cell
