Ch. 3 & 4 Vocab
key terms
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Active Transport | Requires ATP (energy) for transport. (transport pumps, endocytosis, exocytosis) |
| Cell Cycle | sequence of events from one division to the next. (TWO phases) |
| Cell Membrane | Plasma membrane. separates intracellular from extracellular. |
| Cells | Structural & functional unit of ALL living matter. |
| Cytoplasm | Gel like substance,inside cell. (outside nucleus) |
| Differentiate | process that causes cell to become specialized. |
| Diffusion | Most common transport. (HIGHER concentration to LOWER) |
| Endocytosis | Intake of food/liquid by the cell membrane. (too large for diffusion) (2 types PHAGocytsis & PINocytosis) |
| Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) | in cytoplasm. (2 types Rough [RER] & Smooth [SER]) |
| Equilibrium | No further net diffusion. (equal balance) |
| Exocytosis | Moves substances OUT of cell. |
| Facilitated diffusion | A passive transport. (Substance HELPED across cell membrane by a molecule within membrane.) |
| Filtration | Substances is PUSHED across (in/out)of the cell membrane by pressure. (a syringe) |
| Golgi Apparatus | Finishing touches on protein that were received by Rough ER.(pinches off sac to release protein.) |
| Lysosomes | Contains powerful enzymes. (Digestive organelles)["CLEAN HOUSE" like LYSOL cleaning products] |
| Mitochondria | "POWER PLANTS" Produce MOST of the energy the cell requires. (Two layers Outer layer smooth & inner layer called Cristae) |
| Mitosis | (1 of 2 types of)Cell Division. Splitting of 1 cell into 2 daughter cells. [Making "IDENTICAL" cells] |
| Nucleus | The control center of the entire cell. (contains genetic info. & controls ALL protein synthesis) |
| Organelle | Each organelle have a specific role.("little organs") |
| Osmosis | Diffusion of WATER. (From HIGHER concentration to a LOWER) |
| Passive Transport | Requires NO additional ATP. |
| Ribosomes | Organelles. Protein synthesis. (Some attached to RER others float around in cytoplasma) |
| Phagocytosis | Cell is EATING. (a solid particle) |
| Pinocytosis | Cell is DRINKING. ((a water droplet) |
| Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum | Protein synthesis. (Ribosomes on outside surface. sandpaper-like appearance)when done it is passed to golgi apparatus. |
| Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum | Steroids & Lipids synthesis. (No ribosomes) |
| Aerobic catabolism | Needs O2 to breakdown glucose. |
| Amino acids | Building blocks for protein. (about 20 amino acids) |
| Anabolism | building up to larger (complex) substances. (ex. amino acids) |
| Anaerobic catabolism | Does NOT need O2 to breakdown glucose. (two steps pyruvic acid then to lactic acid) |
| Base-pairing | Adenine/Thymine & Cytosine/Guanine |
| Base-sequencing | list of bases (GAC/CAA) |
| Carbohydrates | Organic compounds. (has C, H & O2) (classified Monosaccharides, Disaccharides, Polysaccharides) |
| Catabolism | Breaking down of large complex substances. |
| Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) | |
| Glucose | Used for cell energy. (Most important) |
| Gluconeogenesis | |
| Glycogen | |
| Glycolysis | |
| Lipid | |
| Metabolism | A series of chemical reactions to use raw materials. (2 types anabolism & catabolism) |
| Monosaccharides | Single sugar compound. [includes a 6 carbon molecule = glucose, also includes fructose & galactose] |
| Peptides bond | |
| Proteins | most abundant organic matter in the body. (include enzymes, most hormones, hemoglobin & contractile proteins) |
| Ribonucleic acid (RNA) |
