What does the plasma membrane do
Active transport
Mitochondria function?
Energy source

Energy through photosynthesis
What is photosynthesis
Turning solar energy into chemical energy
In mitochondria, chemical energy becomes available to cells through a process called
Cellular respiration
Long, whip like structures are called

3 parts of he cell theory
- All cells are made of cells
- cells come from other cells
- Cells are the most basic form and function of life
Describe the difference between eukaryotic cells and prokaryotic cells
Eukaryotic have a nucleus and most organelles. Prokaryotic don’t have a nucleus and are missing most organelles
What is an enzyme
A catalyst
What two components of the cell make proteins?
Ribosomes and the rough ER
Describe something in a cell that is interdependent
Enzymes and lysosomes. Without lysosomes, enzymes would begin to break down the cell itself.
True or False?
Molecules of a solution stop moving when concentration equilibrium is reached.
False, they are always moving but when it becomes concentration equilibrium, they slow down.
What do vesicles do
Vesicles transport things
