Q

How many daughter cells does meiosis produce(male and female)

A

male-4
female- 1 viable egg

24
Q

they give up their cytoplasm to nourish the 1 good egg.

25
It is the effect of crossing over
genetic variation
26
Cell division where daughter cells are NOT identical
Meiosis
27
It is the movement of substances across the cell membrane either into or out of the cell. Sometimes things just move through the phospholipid bilayer
Cell transport
28
2 categories of cell transport
passive Transport active transport
29
The process by which molecules spread from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration
Diffusion
30
When molecules are even throughout space
Equilibrium
31
Molecules that cannot directly diffuse across the membrane pass through special protein channels
Facilitated Diffusion
32
Osmosis works BOTH in Air and Fluids
False Only Diffusion and Facilitated Diffusion works both in air and fluids
33
- proteins that involved in letting certain substances in and out of cells
Channel Proteins
34
-proteins that cross both layers od the phospholipid bilayer
Integral Proteins
35
proteins that are only on the top half or bottom half of the phospholipid bilayer
Peripheral Proteins
36
The diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane down its concentration gradient. From an area of high WATER concentration to an area of lower WATER concentration
Osmosis
37
concentration of solute and solvent are equal
Isotonic
38
higher concentration of solutes
Hypertonic
39
water will come out of the cell thus the cell will shrink
Hypertonic
40
lower concentration of solutes
Hypotonic
41
water will come inside of the cell thus the cell will expand
Hypotonic
42
It is the one that dissolves
Solvent
43
It is the one that is being dissolved
Solute
44
Pressure required to present the passage of water through a semi-permeable membrane from a region of low concentration of solutes to one of higher concentration by osmosis.
Osmotic Pressure
45
A category of cell transport that moves AGAINST a concentration agent and requires energy
Active transport
46
2 Types of Active Transport
Molecular Transport Bulk Transport
47
Also called protein pumps
Molecular transport
48
The process by which cells absorb material (molecules such as proteins) from outside the cell by engulfing it with their cell membrane
Endocytosis
49
movement of fluids into the cell
Pinocytosis
50
b)movement of solids into the cell
Phagocytosis
51
A cellular process where cells eject waste products or chemical transmitters (such as hormones) from the interior of the cell.
Exocytosis
52
Who created the first ever compound microscope
Anton van Leeuwenhoek
53
Chromosomes are _ _ _
DNA
54
How many divisions are there in Mitosis?

55
How many divisions are there in Meiosis

56
The movement of materials across the cell membrane without using energy
Passive transport
