Q

Cell theory

A

All living organisms are made up of one or more cells
The cell is the basic unit of life
All cells come from pre-existing cells

17
Q

Eukaryotes

A

Has a nucleus and membrane bound organelles

18
Q

Fluid mosaic pattern

A

Diagram of the cell membrane

Shows the protein and lipid particles

19
Q

Diffusion

A

Molecules move high to concentration to low concentration until equally distributed

20
Q

Osmosis

A

The movement of water through a selectively permeable membrane is osmosis. Requires no energy

21
Q

Active transport

A

Moving from low to high concentration gradient

22
Q

Endocytosis

A

Molecules moving from outside to inside the cell with the cell creating a vacuole

23
Q

Phagocytosis

A

When molecules that are taken are huge

24
Exocytosis
Vacuole fuse with membrane and contents are deposited outside the cell
25
Hypertonic Solution
The cell has a lower concentration of a solute therefore water travels from the cell to the solution
26
Hypotonic
Water enters the cell to balance the levels of solute
27
Isotonic solution
Equal amount of solute inside and outside the cell
28
The various enzymes in our body are
Protein
29
What forms from a long chain of glucose molecules
Startch (carbohydrate)
30
What are long chains of amino acids
Protein
31
Glycogen
Polysaccharide of glucose (carbohydrate)
32
What is a peptide bond
The bond of 2 or more amino acids
33
Pinocytosis
When the molecules that are taken in are tiny
34
Nucleus
Controls all functions in the cell
35
Nuclear envelope
Double membrane that protects the nucleus
36
Rough Endoplasmic reticulum
Ribosomes attached here. Produces protein
37
Smooth ER
No ribosomes attached makes fat, detoxifies drugs
38
Golgi Apparatus
Packages sorts and stores protein
39
Mitochondria
Performs cellular respiration and produces ATP
40
Cytoplasm
Holds organelles in their place
41
Cytoskeleton
The frame that supports the cell
42
Chloroplasts
Plant organelle that captures light and turns it into ATP energy
43
Cell Wall
Plants only, located outside the plasma membrane provides support and additional protection
