1. Cells and DNA

Jeopardy! These organelles break down engulfed pathogens, nutrient molecules, and components of the cell itself that are no longer functional (aka: trash).

Jeopardy This cellular component visible under the microscope protects the interior of the cell from its environment. It also limits the movement of specific materials into and out of the cell.

jeopardy These organelles are involved in cellular metabolism, specifically the production of energy via aerobic respiration.

Jeopardy This cell component visible under the microscope includes both the cytosol and the organelles*. *except the nucleus

Jeopardy In animal cells, this organelle serves as the location for DNA in its chromatin form.

Jeopardy Double-helix structure discovered by Watson and Crick in 1953.

Jeopardy This organelle stores material produced by the cell and transports it to the cell membrane and outside the cell.

Jeopardy This organelle transports material from one part of the cell to another.

Jeopardy These organelles are the cellular machinery responsible for making proteins
