Isotonic
Solutions in which the concentrations of solute are equal to the cell in it.
Hypotonic
The solution with a lower concentration of solute compared to the cell in it.
Hypertonic
The solution with a higher concentration of solute compared to the cell in it.
Active Transport
When a cell expends energy to move molecules or ions across a membrane
Faciliated Diffusion
The passage of large or charged molecules down a concentration gradient through a carrier protein.
Passive Transport
The movement of molecules across a membrane with out the use of ATP.
Cell Adhesion
Carbohydrates from different cell can stick together, to make the cell stick together.
What are the 4 functions of proteins in the cell membrane?
1. Enzymes 2. Cell recognition 3. Cell signaling 4. Transport
Osmosis
The passage of water from a region of high water concentration to a region of low concentration.
Before the cell exploded it was what?
Hypotonic
Cell recognition
Carbs identify the type of cell.
Lipid
Phospholipid
Proteins
Embedded in the phospholipid bilayer
Carbs
Attached to embedded proteins or phospholipids.
Structure
The build up of lipids, proteins, and carbs.
Plasma membrane
Thin flexible selectively permeable bilayer.
Animal cells
1. do not have chloroplasts 2. no cell wall 3. have a membrane 4. small vacuole 5. can be circular shaped
8 pieces
x*x*6*8
What are the 3 parts of the cell theory?
1. All living organisms are made of cells. 2. Cells are the basic unit of structure, function, and physical aspect.
Chloroplasts
Photosynthesis occurs here
Net
Over all movement
Vacuole
Water storage organelle found in plants
Ribosomes
Build polypeptides (proteins)
Eukaryote
More recent and complex. They are also 2.5 billion years old.
Golgi Apparatus
A series of membrane sacs that modify, package and route molecules to their next destination.
How does a surface area to volume ratio affect a cell?
The bigger the volume the harder it is to get nutrients and waste in and out of the cell.
Lysosome
Break down waste
What is the most efficient shape of a cell?
Sphere
Mitochondria
Turns food energy into ATP
Prokaryote
It is 3.5 billion years old. Oldest cell.
What is an example of a prokaryote?
Bacteria
Nucleus
Contains DNA
64 pieces
x*x*6*64
Diffusion
The net movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration across a membrane.
Nucleolus
Site of ribosome synthesis
Plant cells
1. Have chloroplasts 2. Use photosynthesis to make food. 3. Have a cell wall. 4. Large vacuole 5. rectangular shaped
Cytoskeleton
Composed of microfilaments and microtubules
Smooth ER
Site of lipid production and calcium regulation
