Cells and Transport Flashcards
responsible for assembling amino acid chains
ribosomes
production of oils, lipids, and steroids
smooth ER
packagin and export of proteins made to function on the exterior of the cell membrane
golgi bodies
site of glucose digestion to produce ATP
mitochondria
provides structural support and made of cellulose
cell wall
digests used up cellular parts into their individual components
lysosome
pinching in of fluids by a unicellular organism
pinocytosis
the movement of molecules from high concentration to low concentration without the use of ATP
passive transport
the removal of bulk materials by merging a vesicle with the cell membrane
exocytosis
the natural movement of charged ions through a protein channel
facilitated diffusion
the action of nonpolar molecules moving directly through the phospholipid layer
simple diffusion
the action of lymphocytes (white blood cells) injesting bacteria and debris
phagocytosis
What organelles contain DNA?
Mitochondria, Nucleus, Chloroplast
Outside of the cell contains more solute than the cell, so water leaves t he cell
hypertonic
More solute inside of cell so water enters it
hypotonic
