Question
Answer
Organelle   Structures inside of the cell  
🗑
What is the 6 functions of cells   Basic unit of life, protection and support, movement, communication, cell metabolism and energy release, inheritance  
🗑
Cell Membrane/Plasma Membrane   outermost component of a cell, forms a boundary, protects cell  
🗑
Extracellular substance   substances outside the cell  
🗑
Intracellular Substance   substances inside the cell  
🗑
Mosaic Model   a structural model of the arrangement of molecules in a cell membrane  
🗑
Nucleus   cell organelle containing most of the genetic material of the cell, center of a atom with protons and neutrons  
🗑
Nucleolus   rounded dense, well defined bodies with no surrounding membrane, units of ribosomes are manufactured here  
🗑
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (Rough ER)   in cytoplasm, many attached ribosomes, site of protein synthesis  
🗑
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (Smooth ER)   in cytoplasm, site of lipid synthesis  
🗑
Golgi Apparatus   in cytoplasm, modifies protein structure and packages proteins in secretory vesicles  
🗑
Lysosomes   in cytoplasm, contains enzymes that digest material taken into cells  
🗑
Mitochondrion   the powerhouse, in cytoplasm, site of aerobic respiration and the major site of ATP synthesis  
🗑
Microtubules   in cytoplasm, supports cytoplasm, assists in cell division and forms components of cilia and flagella  
🗑
Cilia   On cell surface with many on each cell they move substances over surface of certain cells  
🗑
Flagella   On sperm cell surface with one per cell, propels the sperm cells  
🗑
Microvilli   extension of cell surface with many on each cell increase surface area of certain cells  
🗑
Ribosomes   small spherical cytoplasmic organelle where protein synthesis occurs  
🗑
Cytoskeleton   the collection of microtubules microfilaments and intermediate filaments that support the cytoplasm and organelles also involved with cell movements  
🗑
What are 4 ways molecules can pass through the cell membrane   Directly through the phospholipid membrane, membrane channels, carrier molecules and vesicles  
🗑
Solution   mixture formed when a solute dissolves in a solvent  
🗑
Solutes   dissolved substance in a solution  
🗑
Solvent   liquid that holds a other substance in solution  
🗑
Diffusion   tendency for solute molecules to move from an area of higher concentration to a area of lower concentration in a solution the product of the constant random motion of all atoms ions or molecules in a solution  
🗑
Concentration gradient   the measure of the difference in the concentration of a solute in a solvent between two points  
🗑
Osmosis   diffusion of a solvent through a selectively permeable membrane from a region of higher water concentration to one of lower water concentration  
🗑
Osmotic pressure   force required to prevent the movement of water across a selectively permeable membrane  
🗑
Hypotonic   solution that causes cells to swell  
🗑
Isotonic   solution that causes cells to neither shrink or swell  
🗑
Hypertonic   solution that causes cells to shrink  
🗑
Facilitated Diffusion   carrier mediated process that does not require ATP and moves substances into or out of cells from a higher to lower concentration  
🗑
Active transport   carrier mediated process that requires ATP and can move substances into or out of cells from a lower to a higher concentration  
🗑
Sodium potassium exchange pump   moves sodium ions out of the cells and potassium ions into cells  
🗑
Endocytosis   bulk uptake of material through the cell membrane by taking it into a vesicle  
🗑
Exocytosis   Eliminaton of material from a cell through the formation of cells  
🗑
Glycolysis   anaerobic process during which one glucose molecule is converted to 2 pyruvic acid molecules, a net of 2 ATP molecules is produced during Glycolysis  
🗑
Aerobic Respiration   breakdown of glucose in the presence of oxygen to produce carbon dioxide, water and about 38 ATP molecules includes glycolysis the citric acid cycle and the electron transport chain  
🗑
Anerobic Respiration   breakdown of glucose in the absence of oxygen to produce lactic acid and 2 ATP molecules consists of glycolysis and the reduction of pyruvic acid to lactic acid  
🗑


   

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.
