25
what structure facilitates movement of organelles and genetic material
cytoskeleton
26
described as "selective gatekeeper" and manages what goes in and out of the cell through - diffusion - carrier mediated transport - endocytosis
cell membrane
27
diffusion is the
movement of molecules from area of high concentration to area of low concentration
28
Osmosis is the
diffusion of water molecules
29
movement of water across the membrane is
osmosis
30
3 types of cells during osmosis
-hypertonic / hyperosmotic - isotonic / isomotic - hypotonic / hypoosmotic
31
cell in osmosis that has high water, and no solutes, leading to them swelling and bursting
hypotonic / hypoosmotic
32
cell in osmosis that has low water, and high solutes which causes the cells to loose water, shrivel, and shrink
hypertonic / hyperosmotic
33
what cell in osmosis has equal concentrations of water and solutes
isotonic / isosmotic
34
the process of one mother cell dividing into two identical daughter cells is
mitosis
35
humans have ___ pairs of chromosomes
23
36
humans have ___ chromatids in total
46
37
the centromere
connects two chromatids together
38
nucleic acids form
DNA
39
DNA forms
genes
40
genes form
chromsomes
41
in DNA replication, DNA helicase is a
enzyme that "unzips" DNA
42
in DNA replication, DNA polymerase function is to
"reads" open strand of DNA - adds complementary base pairs
43
mitosis cell division phases
interphase prophase prometaphase metaphase anaphase telophase cytokinesis
44
what's the longest stage of mitosis
interphase
45
how many chromatids are there in the G1 phase of interphase
1 chromatid per chromosome
46
what happens during the s stage of interphase
DNA replication
47
how many chromatids per chromosome in the G2 phase of interphase
there are 2 chromatids per chromosome
48
during this phase of the cell cycle the nuclear membrane disintegrates, chromosomes condense forming recognizable shape, spindles form
prophase
49
during this cell phase, chromosome line up to form the metaphase plate, centromeres on spindle fibers "equator" of cell
metaphase
50
during this cell phase, spindle fibers contract, pulls sister chromatids apart, the chromatids then move to opposite poles of the cell
anaphase
51
during this cell phase, spindle fibers disappear, nuclear membrane re-forms, chromosomes de-condense
telophase
52
during this cell phase, the cell divides into 2 identical separate cells
cytokinesis
53
cellular death is referred to as
apoptosis
54
apoptosis is, and is necessary because
cell death, necessary for continued health and development
55
moving molecules across the cell membrane that cannot freely diffuse is ___________________
carrier mediated transport
56
moving molecules against a concentration gradient is __________________
carrier mediated transport
57
movement of nutrients and other things across the cell membrane that requires transport proteins (chaperone) and ATP energy is ____________________
carrier mediated transport
58
an energy dependent pathway that combines a chemical reaction with a diffusion process
carrier mediated transport
59
define endosymbiosis
two organisms living together with one inside the other
60
define endocytosis
ingestion of material by cell
61
what are the 3 kinds of endocytosis (and definition of endocytosis)
is the ingestion of material by cell 1. phagocytosis - cellular eating, invaginates around food 2. pinocytosis - cellular drinking, invaginates around liquid that contain enzymes and nutrients 3. receptor-mediated endocytosis - receptor proteins on membrane surface bind to
62
define phagocytoses
- Cellular eating - Membrane folds around item, engulfs it, lysomes fuse to facilitate breakdown
63
define pinocytosis
cellular drinking, invaginates around fluid that contains nutrients and particles
64
receptor-mediated endocytosis
the cell has receptors proteins that attach to specific molecules, signals invagination
65
define exocytosis
the cell exports material from inside the cell to outside the cell// the opposite of endocytosis
66
cytoskeleton function
1. spatially organizes the contents of the cell 2. it connects the cell physically and biochemically to the external environment 3. generates coordinated forces that enable the cell to move and change shape
67
what are the 4 chemical bases found in DNA
1. Adenine (A) 2. Guanine (G) 3. Cytosine (C) 4. Thymine (T)
68
what is the cell membrane bilayer composed of
Amphipathic phospholipids create bilayer
