Cell The organelle that controls all of a cell’s activities. Nucleus The thin covering that encloses a cell and holds its parts together. Cell Membrane A jellylike substance containing many chemicals that keep a cell functioning. Cytoplasm The diffusion of water and dissolved materials through cell membranes. Osmosis The process by which many materials move in and out of cells. Diffusion Cells that work together to perform a specific function - Tissue Tissues that work together to perform a specific function - Organ Nerve cells that detect conditions in the body’s environment - Receptors The process of cell division - Mitosis The smallest name grouping used in classification - Species The largest name grouping used in classification - Kingdom Animals with a backbone - Vertebrates Animals that have dry, scaly skin - Reptiles Animals that have moist skin and no scales - Amphibians Animals that have hair and produce milk for their young - Mammals Vertebrates that live their entire life in water - Fish Vertebrates with feathers - Birds Animals without a backbone - Invertebrates The grouping of things by using a set of rules - Classification Living things that look like plants but cannot make their own food; example – mushrooms - Fungi Plants that have tubes - Vascular tubes The food-making process that produces oxygen - Photosynthesis A coloring matter that helps plants use light energy to produce sugars Chlorophyll When a conditions are right and a seed sprouts, it is called - Germination
