CLOZE 1
cell / dead / life / eukaryoticgenetic / organisms / prokaryotic / theory
The ______was discovered by Robert Hooke in 1665. As scientists investigated cells, they discovered that the cell is the basic unit of ______. They also found out that all ______are composed of one or more cells. The experiments were repeated multiple times and the results were always the same: all living things were made of cells. This became part of the cell ______.
CLOZE 2
chromosomes / DNA / eukaryotic / largernucleus / organelle / prokaryotic / rod
single / smaller / square
Cells that contain membrane-bound organelles are known as ______cells. These cells contain a ______, which holds the genetic information. The DNA in eukaryotic cells is found within ______in the nucleus. ______cells are cells that do not contain a nucleus or other type of membrane-bound organelle. These cells contain ______, but this genetic material is not found in a nucleus. Prokaryotic cells are much ______than eukaryotic cells. Bacteria are an example of prokaryotic cells. Bacteria come in three main shapes: ______-shaped, spherical, or spiral. Prokaryotes are always ______-celled organisms, while eukaryotes can be unicellular or multicellular.
CLOZE 3
Archaea / Bacteria / classification / DomainsEukarya / eukaryotic / Kingdoms / prokaryotic
The taxonomic ______system is the process that categorizes organisms by their common structures, similar functions, and genetic relationships. All living organisms are organized into three ______. There are two Domains that consist of ______cells, which lack a nucleus. These two Domains are Domain ______and Domain Bacteria. Each of those Domains consists of a single Kingdom with similar names. The third Domain is made of organisms with ______cells, which contain with a nucleus. The Domain ______consists of organisms from the ______Protists, Plantae, Fungi, and Animalia.
CLOZE 4
asexual / autotrophs / cells / fiveheterotrophs / minerals / nutrients / sexual
six / reproduction
Organisms are categorized into ______Kingdoms. They are classified based upon the way they obtain ______. ______manufacture their own food, such as through the process of photosynthesis. ______must eat other organisms to obtain their nutrients. Another way that organisms are classified is based on how they produce offspring in the process of ______. Reproduction can occur asexually or sexually. ______reproduction produces offspring that are identical to the single parent. ______reproduction produces offspring that are a result of the genetic combination of two parents. Lastly, an organism is categorized based upon the number of ______that are in the body.
