Question | Answer |
---|---|
Carries out all chemical activities needed to sustain life | Cells |
Control center of the cell | Nucleus |
Has Nuclear envelope(membrane), Nucleolus, and Chromatin | Nucleus |
Contains genetic material (DNA) | Nucleus |
Barrier of the nucleus | Nuclear envelope |
Sites of ribosome assembly | Nucleoli |
Condenses to form chromosomes when the cell divides | Chromatin |
Composed of DNA and protein | Chromatin |
Double phospholipid layer which contains proteins, cholesterol, and glycoproteins | Plasma Membrane |
Barrier for cell contents | Plasma Membrane |
Finger-like projections that increase surface area for absorption on the plasma membrane | Microvilli |
Impermeable junctions | tight junctions |
Bind cells together into leak-proof sheets | tight junctions |
Anchoring junctions that prevent cells from being pulled apart | Desmosomes |
Allow communication between cells | Gap junctions |
the material outside the nucleus and inside the plasma membrane | Cytoplasm |
Fluid that suspends other elements | Cytosol |
“Little organs” that perform functions for the cell | Organelles |
Chemical substances such as stored nutrients or cell products | Inclusions |
Metabolic machinery of the cell | Organelles |
“Powerhouses” of the cell | Mitochondria |
Provides ATP for cellular energy | Mitochondria |
Carry out reactions where oxygen is used to break down food | Mitochondria |
Sites of protein synthesis | Ribosomes |
Free in the cytoplasm and as part of the rough endoplasmic reticulum | Ribosomes |
Studded with ribosomes and Synthesizes proteins | Rough endoplasmic reticulum |
Functions in lipid metabolism and detoxification of drugs and pesticides | Smooth endoplasmic reticulum |
Modifies and packages proteins | Golgi apparatus |
Produces Secretory vesicles, cell membrane components, and lysosomes | Golgi apparatus |
Contain enzymes that digest worn-out or non-usable materials within the cell | lysosomes |
Detoxify harmful substances such as alcohol and formaldehyde and Breaks down free radicals (highly reactive chemicals) | Peroxisomes |
Membranous sacs of oxidase enzymes | Peroxisomes |
Network of protein structures that extend throughout the cytoplasm | Cytoskeleton |
Provides the cell with an internal framework | Cytoskeleton |
Microfilaments, Intermediate filaments, and Microtubules | Cytoskeleton |
Direct the formation of mitotic spindle during cell division | Centrioles |
Rod-shaped bodies made of microtubules used for cell division. | Centrioles |
used to move materials across the cell surface | cilia |
Located in the respiratory system to move mucus | cilia |
used to propel the cell | Flagella |
only flagellated cell in the human body | sperm |
No energy is required | Passive Transport |
Cell must provide metabolic energy (ATP) | Active Transport |
movement of substances into and out of the cell | Cell membrane |
fluid on the exterior of the cell | Interstitial fluid |
nucleoplasm and cytosol | Intracellular fluid |
components in smaller quantities within a solution | Solutes |
homogeneous mixture of two or more components | Solution |
typically water in the solution | Solvent |
allows some materials to pass while excluding others | Selective Permeability |
Movement is from high concentration to low concentration, or down a concentration gradient | Diffusion |
simple diffusion of water | Osmosis |
Substances require a protein carrier for passive transport | Facilitated diffusion |
Moves materials out of the cell | Exocytosis |
Moves materials into the cell | Endocytosis |
"cell eating' | Phagocytosis |
"cell drinking" | Pinocytosis |
Cell grows, Cell carries on metabolic processes, and DNA replicates itself | Interphase |
genetic material makes a copy of itself. | DNA Replication |
Results in the formation of two daughter nuclei | Mitosis |
division of the cytoplasm and results in the formation of two daughter cells. | Cytokinesis |
First part of cell division | Prophase |
Centrioles migrate to the poles to direct assembly of mitotic spindle fibers, DNA appears as double-stranded chromosomes, nuclear envelope breaks down and disappears. | Prophase |
Chromosomes are aligned in the center of the cell | Metaphase |
Chromosomes are pulled apart and toward the opposite ends of the cell | Anaphase |
Nuclear envelope reforms around chromatin, spindles break down and disappear | Telophase |
A cleavage furrow forms to pinch the cells into two parts | Cytokinesis |
