25
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (RER)
organelle for portien synthesis and phospholipid synthesis
26
Smooth ER
organelle for synthesis of carbs, lipid, and steroid horomones
27
Golgi Apparatus GA
organelle for sorting, tag, package, ship lipids and protiens
28
Vesicles
Organelle for storage + transport
29
Vacuole
large vesicle
30
Lysosome
Type of Vesicle to break down materials
31
Mitochondria
Synthesizes ATP(energy carrying molecules), powerhouse of the cell
32
Extracellular matrix
material secreted from cell, Holds cells together(tissue), cell communication, protection
33
Intercellular Junctions IJ
When contact is made btwn cells, Plasmodesmata(plant cells)
34
Tight Junction
Water tight seal
35
Gap Junction
material transport
36
Desmosome
allows for cells to slide against each other
37
Plant cells specific
Cell Wall, Central vacuole, chloroplast
38
Animal cell-specific
Centriole, centrosome, lysosome
39
Cell Wall
Structure external to cell membrane, rigid, protection, cellulose
40
Chloroplast
organelle where photosynthesis occurs
41
Central Vacuole
fluid-filled organelle, provides outward pressure
42
autotroph
organism that makes own food, plant photosynthesis
43
Heterotroph
Animals that eat other organisms for food
44
Cell Membrane CM
encloses cell, Flexible, controls passage of materials, Receptors + Protiens embedded in membrane
45
Fluid Mosaic Model
CM is mosaic of components that flow and change position
46
Membrane Transport
movement across CM, Selectively permeable (semi-permeable)
47
Passive Transport PT
does not require/use energy. Transport via diffusion (spread). High concentration to Low concentration
48
Cocentration gradient
Area of High concentration to low concentration
49
Affectors of Rate of diffusion
The extent of concen gradient (Faster at high concen), Ambient Temperature (Hot has higher diffusion), Diffusion medium(gas has higher diffusion), Mass of molecules diffusing.
50
Facilitated transport
PT assisted by protien
51
Osmosis
diffusion across semipermeable membrane based on water concentration gradient, Water POV
52
osmolarity
total amount of solution per 1 liter of solution
53
tonicity
The capability of a solution to modify the volume of cells by change in water content.
54
Hypotonic
extracellular fluid has lower osmolarity than inside-cell
55
Hypertonic
more concentration outside cell
56
Lysis
cell death too much water
57
crenation
too little water = shrivel cell
58
Isotonic
Same osmolarity inside and outside, no net movement
59
Electrical gradient
Gradient resulting from ions moving in/out of cell
60
Electrochemical gradient
Combined gradient (electrical + concentration) that attracts an ion
61
Active Transport (AT)
Requires/uses energy 3 types
62
Primary AT
uses ATP, move ions across a membrane + creates a diff in charge across membrane
63
Secondary AT
Uses energy from primary AT to move materials across the membrane
64
Endocytosis
moves fluid/other particles into the cell
65
Phoshocytosis
solutes into cell
66
Receptor-mediated endocytosis
, Specific substances using binding proteins to move into cell
67
Exocytosis
process of expelling materials from cell
