Q

active transport

A

requires energy, particles move through a protein against the direction of diffusion / exocytosis, endocytosis, and protein pumps

Q

passive transport

A

occurs spontaneously, particle in high concentration diffuses through a protein / diffusion, osmosis, facilitated diffusion (only done by swocd)

Q

hypotonic

A

concentration of water is higher outside the cell, water will enter cell, cell gets bigger

Q

endocytosis

A

transport of substances into the cell using the cell membrane to surround substance
a. phagocytosis: large, solid molecules brought in
b. pinocytosis: small or liquid substances brought in

16
Q

prokaryotic cell

A

single-celled organisms that have a relatively simple structure

17
Q

eukaryotic animal cell

A

multicellular, have centrosomes and lysosomes, animal cells do not have a cell wall

18
Q

eukaryotic plant cell

A

multicellular, they contain chloroplasts and a cell wall

19
Q

nucleus

A

controls cells activities and builds more cells

20
Q

rough er

A

produces proteins, involved in protein synthesis

21
Q

smooth er

A

involved in lipid synthesis, can store enzymes

22
Q

golgi apparatus

A

modifies, sorts, and packages proteins

23
Q

mitochondria

A

produces atp by aerobic respiration

24
Q

chloroplast

A

gathers energy by photosynthesis

25
ribosomes
translates genetic code in a string of amino acids to form proteins
26
lysosome
rid cells of waste
27
peroxisome
play important roles in metabolism, reactive oxygen species detoxification, and signaling
28
cytoskeleton
helps cells maintain their shape and internal organization
29
vacuole
help get rid of waste products
30
centrioles
organize microtubules that serve as the cell's skeletal system
