Cell Structure and Function, movement, and matabolism

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

question
answer
6 functions of the cell   Basic unit of life, protection and support, movement, communication, cell metabolism, and energy release, inheritance  
🗑
cell membrane   outermost component of the cell, is a wall  
🗑
extracellular substance   substance outside the cell  
🗑
intercellular substance   substance in the cell  
🗑
mosaic model   arrangement of molecules in the cell, cell membrane moves like bobbers on water  
🗑
nucleus   brain of cell, DNA  
🗑
nucleolus   site of ribosomal RNA and ribosomal protein synthesis  
🗑
rough ER   site of Protein synthesis  
🗑
Smooth ER   Site of lipid synthesis  
🗑
Golgi Apparatus   modifies protien structure and packages protiens in secretory vesicles  
🗑
lysosomes   contains enzymes that digest material taken into the cell  
🗑
mitochondrion   site of aerobic resporation and the major site of ATP synthesis  
🗑
Microtubuals   holds up the cell  
🗑
cilia   moves substances over surface of cell  
🗑
flagella   on sperm cell surface with one per cell  
🗑
microvilli   extensions of cell surface with many on cell, increase surface area of certain cells  
🗑
ribosomes   cytoplasmic organelle were protein synthesis occurs  
🗑
cytoskeleton   consists of proteins that support the cell, enable the cell to change shape  
🗑
four ways molecules pass through cell membrane   through phospholipid membrane, membrane channels, carrier molecules, and vesicles  
🗑
solution   consists of one or more substances  
🗑
solutes   dissolves into original, added to first substance  
🗑
solvent   substance that the solute is dissolved into, first substance that 2nd is added to, usually larger  
🗑
diffusion   substance spreads throughout evenly  
🗑
concentration gradient   the measure of the difference in the concentration of a solute in a solvent between two points  
🗑
osmosis   through membrane, ex. air through screen  
🗑
osmotic pressure   the force required to prevent the movement of water across a selective premeable membrane  
🗑
hypotonic   solution usually has a higher of solutes and a lower concentration of water than cytoplasm in the cell  
🗑
Facilitated Diffusion   a mediated transport process that moves substances into or out of cells from a higher or a lower concentration  
🗑
Active Transport   a carrier-meiated process that moves substances from regions of a lower concentration to ones of higher concentration against the gradient  
🗑
Sodium Potassium Pump   moves sodium ions out of cells and potassium ions into the cell  
🗑
endocytosis   the cell bring in food and water  
🗑
exocytosis   the cell getting rid of wastes and other bad things  
🗑
glycolysis   the breakdown of sugars by a series of chemical reactions within the cytoplasm of a cell  
🗑
aerobic respiration   breakdown of glucose in the presence of oxygen to produce carbon dioxide, water, and approximately 38 ATP molecules  
🗑
anaerobic respiration   breakdown of glucose in the absence of oxygen to produce lactic acid and two ATP molecules  
🗑
organelles   "little ograns" in the cell  
🗑


   

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.
