16
Q

cytoskeleton

A

3 kinds of protein filaments
-shape
-cell movement
-organelle movement

17
Q

centrosomes

A

form mitotic spindle; needed to form cilia and flagella

18
Q

cilia

A

abundant, hair-like cell projections, move particles around cell

19
Q

flagella

A

long cell projection; whip-like motion moves sperm

20
Q

interphase

A

DNA replicates

21
Q

mitosis

A

nuclear division

22
Q

prophase

A

nuclear membrane disappears, chromatin condenses into chromosomes; centrioles move opposite poles, spindle fiber forms

23
Q

metaphase

A

chromosomes line up, spindle fibers attach to centromeres of chromosomes

24
Q

anaphase

A

chromatids of chromosomes separate; move opposite poles

25
telophase
cell reverses prophase activities, spindle breaks up, nuclear membrane reappears
26
cytokinesis
cytoplasm division into two genetically identical daughter cells
27
crenation
to shrink or shrivel
28
hemolysis
destruction of red blood cells
29
simple diffusion
high concentration to low concentration solids, liquids, or gas is moved across plasma membrane
30
tonicity
measure of relative solute concentration between 2 solutions
31
isotonic
same solute
32
hypertonic
more solute
33
hypotonic
less solute
34
osmosis
low concentration to high concentration
35
in a dialysis bag, glucose and iodine are?
solutes
36
passive processes use what kind of energy to move substances across plasma membrane?
kinetic energy
37
red blood cell in hypertonic solution
crenate
38
red blood cell in hypotonic solution
hemolyze
