This document defines key life sciences terms including cell, microscopic, DNA, organelle, chlorophyll, photosynthesis, unicellular, multicellular, and macroscopic. Cells are the smallest unit of living organisms, DNA carries hereditary information, and chlorophyll allows plants to perform photosynthesis and take on their green color through chloroplast organelles.

seen with the naked eye DNA – material that carries hereditary info. Organelle structures found inside living cells Chlorophyll – green pigment found in chloroplasts that gives plants their green colour Photosynthesis – the process by which plants use chlorophyll to convert radiant energy into sugars.
Unicellular – one cell
Multi cellular- 2 or more cells Macroscopic – large enough too see with the naked eye
