en CR PROGRAM 23: Life Science 17 Cell : The smallest unit that can perform all the processes necessary for life. Cells are covered by a membrane and have DNA and cytoplasm. Cell Membrane : A protective layer that covers the cell's surface and acts as a barrier. The cell membrane separates the cell's contents from its environment and controls materials going into and out of the cell. Cell Wall : A rigid structure that surrounds the cell membrane and provides support to the cell. Cellular Respiration : the process by which cells use oxygen to release energy from glucose. chloroplast : Only in plant cells, the green structures that absorb the sun's energy, enabling the plant to produce sugar. It contains a green substance called chlorophyll. Classification : the identification, naming, and grouping of organisms into a formal system. DNA: Hereditary material that controls all the activities of a cell and contains the information to make new cells, The molecule that carries genetic instructions. Ecosystem: A community of different organisms and their nonliving environment. Evolution: Describes the slow genetic change in populations of organisms over time. Food web: a feeding pattern that slows the energy transfer throughout an ecosystem. Gene: a unit of DNA by which traits are passed from parent to offspring. Genetics: the scientific study of how traits are inherited. Genome: the entire genetic code of an individual or species. Habitat: the place in an ecosystem where a species lives. Mitosis: the process by which most cells reproduce; cell division. Nucleus: in a cell, the structure that contains genetic material and control the cell's activities. Photosynthesis: The process by which green plants use carbon dioxide, water, and energy from the sun and convert it into sugar and oxygen to make their own food . Species: a group of organisms that resemble one another and that produce fertile offspring when they interbreed.
