Q

A group if similar cells that work together to carry out a specific function.

22
Q

Composed of several types of tissues working together to preform a specific function.

23
Q

Made up if a group of organs that work together to accomplish life functions.

A

Organ system.

24
Transport of dissolved substances into cells to serve as build in blocks or energy sources.
Absorption.
25
Enzymatic breakdown of substances to obtain building materials or energy.
Digestion.
26
List the three statements that make up the cell theory.
1. ) all living things are made up of cells. 2. ) cells preform all functions of living things. 3. ) cells come from preexisting cells.
27
Type of active transport. Process cells use to transport substances in bulk across the membrane and into the cell.
Endocytosis.
28
Type of active transport. The process whereby vesicles or vacuoles in the cytoplasm fuse with the cell membrane and release their contents into the solution outside the cell.
Exocytosis.
29
Non membrane bound cells.
Procaryotic.
30
Membrane bound cells.
Eukaryotic.
31
Diffusion by water through a semi permeable membrane.
Osmosis.
32
Study of cells.
Cytology.
33
"Steady state".
Homeostasis.
34
Limit of tolerance.
Cells die outside.
35
Precise conditions at which something functions its best.
Optimal point.
36
Outside of the optimal range.
Range of tolerance.
37
Not the optimal point, but cell's performance is still stable.
Optimal range.
38
External solutes = internal solutes.
Isotonic solution.
39
External solutes < internal solutes.
Hypotonic solution.
40
External solutes > internal solutes.
Hypertonic solution.
41
The bursting of a cell from internal water pressure.
Cytolysis.
42
Water leaves the cell. Cell loses its turgidity and then the cell membrane pulls away from the cell.
Plasmolysis.
43
Mvmt of molecules across the surface of the membrane with the concentration gradient and w/o using chemical energy.
Passive transport.
44
Type of diffusion that requires a helper.
Facilitated diffusion.
45
Protein facilitators are called-
Transport proteins.
46
When energy is required and the substance is moved across the membrane against the concentration gradient.
Active transport.
47
Use cellular energy to push substances against their concentration gradient.
Pumps
48
Transport protein that forms tiny pores in the membrane that certain substances can pass.
Channel protein.
49
Transport protein. Receptor site binds to the molecule it is designed to carry. Protein changes shape and the molecules passes through the membrane.
Carrier protein.
50
Process of a cell eating another cell.
Phagocytosis.
51
Movement of bulk fluids or solutes across the membrane.
Pinocytosis.
52
Organelle that makes materials that are transported to the cell membrane from the vesicles.
Secretion vesicles.
