20
Q

transcription?

A

the process of converting the DNA code into an mRNA message

21
Q

translation?

A

the mRNA strands leaves the cells nucleus and heads to the ribosome, where proteins are made

22
Q

cell division?

A

when a large cell grows too large, the time necessary to brin in nutrients and remove waste gets inefficient
-to prevent this, cells divide on a regular cycle

23
Q

mitosis?

A

the period of division in somatic cells
-division of chromosomes and then cytoplasm
-one parent cell makes TWO IDENTICAL “daughter cells”

24
Q

meiosis?

A

the period of division in sex cells (gametes)
-division of chromosomes and then cytoplasm
-one parent cell makes FOUR DIFFERENT “daughter cells”

25
passive transport?
cells need to move materials in and out -use specialized, semi-permeable membranes
26
diffusion (passive transport)?
-with concentration gradient -moves from areas of HIGH to lox concentration
27
simple diffusion?
movement of particles through bilayer from high to low concentration
28
dialysis diffusion (passive transport)?
diffusion of small solute particles through selectively permeable membrane
29
osmosis diffusion (passive transport)?
diffusion of water
30
facilitated diffusion (passive transport)?
diffusion of particles though membrane with help of carrier proteins
31
active transport?
moves molecules from lower concentration to higher concentration -DOES require energy
32
endocytosis (active transport)?
"into cell"
33
phagocytosis?
"to eat"
34
pinocytosis?
"to drink"
35
exocytosis (active transport)?
"out of cell"
36
enzymes are...?
VERY SPECIFIC
37
catabolism?
big things to little things
38
anabolism?
little things to big things
39
embryonic development of tissues?
after fertilization, the cell divides and becomes a hollow ball of cells called a blastocyst
40
endoderm?
innermost layer of cells or tissue
41
mesoderm?
the middle layer of an embryo
42
ectoderm?
outer most layer of an embryo
43
histogenesis?
when the tissue layer differentiate into tissues
44
epithelial tissue?
-protects from injury and foreign particles -found in skin, nose, eye, and ear -includes hormone, mucus, digestive juices and sweat -absorbs nutrients and gases in lungs -excretes in kidney and urine CLASSIFICATION BASED ON CELL SHAPE AND NUMBER OF LAYERS
45
simple squamous?
single flay layer of cells that are thin and permeable -function: rapid diffusion of materials -found in blood vessels and lung tissues
46
simple cuboidal?
single layer of cube shaped cells -function: secretion and absorption of substances -found in the tissues of the kidney
