Question
Answer
Prokaryote   a single celled organism that does not have a nucleus or membrane-bound organelles; examples are archaea and bacteria  
🗑
Eukaryote   an organism made up of cells that have a nucleus enclosed by a membrane, multiple chromosomes, and a mitotic cycle; electrolytes include protists, animals  
🗑
Organelle   one of the small bodles that are found in the cytoplasm of a cell and that are specialized to perform a specific function  
🗑
Nucleus   in a eukaryatic cell a membrane bound organelle that contains the cell's DNA and has a role in process such as growth, metabolism and reproduction  
🗑
Chloroplast   an organelle found in plant and algae cells where photosynthesis occurs  
🗑
Mitochondria   in eukaryotic cells the cell organelle that is surronded by two by two membranes and that is the site of cellurlar respiration, which produces atp  
🗑
Cell wall   a rigid structure that surronds the cell of plants, fungi, many protists and most bacteria  
🗑
ribosome   an organelle that functions in the synthesis of protiens  
🗑
lysosme   an organelle containing digestive enzymes existing primaraly in animal cells  
🗑
Osmosis   the diffusion of water across a selective permable membrane  
🗑
organ   several types of body tissue that together perform a function  
🗑
organ system   a group of organs that interact to perform a set of releated tasks  
🗑
diffusion   the process by which molecules move from an area of greater concentration to an area of lesser concentration  
🗑
Passive transport   The movement of a chemical substance across a cell membrane without expenditure of energy by the cell, as in diffusion.  
🗑
Active transport   the movement of ions or molecules across a cellular membrane from a lower to a higher concentration, requiring the consumption of energy.  
🗑
Endocytosis   the process by which a cell surronds and engulfs a substance  
🗑
Exocytosis   the transport of material out of a cell by means of a sac or vesicle that first engulfs the material and then is extruded through an opening in the cell membrane  
🗑
Flagella   a long, lashlike appendage serving as an organ of locomotion in protozoa, sperm cells  
🗑
Cilia   minute hairlike organelles, identical in structure to flagella, that line the surfaces of certain cells and beat in rhythmic waves, providing locomotion to ciliate protozoans and moving liquids along internal epithelial tissue in animals.  
🗑
tissue   in most multicellular orgamisms a group of similar cells that carry out a common function  
🗑
Homostasis   the stable internal conditions of living things  
🗑
Equilibrium   a state that exists when the concentration is the same throughout space  
🗑
acid   any substance that increases concentration of hydrogen ions when added water to solution  
🗑
base   any substance that increases the concentration of ions when added to a water solution  
🗑
Aerobic   the process in which cells make ATP by breaking down organic compunds with with oxygen as the final electrons acceptors  
🗑
Cellular respiration   the process in which cells make ATP by breaking down organic compounds  
🗑
Photosynthesis   the conversion of light energy into chemical energy stored in organic compounds  
🗑
Chemosynthesis   the production of carbohydrates through the use of energy from inorganic molecules instead of light  
🗑
Fermentation   a process in which cells make a limited amount of ATP by converting gluecose into another organism compound such as latic acid or ethyl alchol in the absence of oxygen  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
