Unit 3 Biology Kloet
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What is a cell? | the basic structural unit of life |
| Leeuwenhoek | observed live cells and observed greater detail |
| Hooke | was the first to identify cells and name them |
| Schleiden | concluded that plants are made of cells |
| Virchow | proposed that all cells come from other cells |
| Schwann | concluded that animals and, in fact, all living things are made of cells |
| Cell Theory | The idea that cells are the fundamental units of life |
| Cell Theory 1: | All organisms are composed of one or more cells and their products |
| Cell Theory 2: | All Cells come from the division of preexisting cells (therefore they must contain genetic info) |
| Cell Theory 3: | All cells carry out chemical reactions of life |
| Two basic cell types? | Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic |
| Which cell has a nucleus? | Eukaryotic |
| Which cell does not have a nucleus? | Prokaryotic |
| Which cell is single-celled? | Prokaryotic |
| Which cell is multi-cellular? | Eukaryotic |
| Which cell contians many membrane-bound organelles | Eukaryotic |
| Which cell lacks internal membrane bound organelles | Prokaryotic |
| Both cells have: | cell membrane, genetic material, ribosomes, and cytoplasm. |
| Fluid Mosaic Model: | Describes the arrangement of molecules making up a cell membrane. |
| Selective Permeability | Allows some materials to cross, enables cell to maintain homeostasis |
| Receptors: | Molecules that deduct a signal molecule and perform an action in response |
| Ligand Molecules | Signal molecule |
| Intracellular Receptor | Proteins located inside the cell and bind to ligand molecules that CAN cross the membrane |
| Membrane Receptor | Proteins located in the membrane; binds to ligand molecules that CANNOT cross the membrane and causes changes in shape to transmit message to inside the cell |
| Passive Transport: | 3 types movement of molecules from a high concentration WITHOUT USING ENERGY. |
| Diffusion: | Movement of molecules from high concentration to low |
| Osmosis: | movement of H2O from high H2O to lower concentration of H2O |
| Concentration Gradient: | difference in concentration |
| Hypertonic: | the solution that has the highest concentration of particles |
| Hypotonic: | the solution that has a lower concentration of particles compared with another solution |
| Isotonic: | solution that has an equal concentration of particles compared with another solution |
| Facilitated Diffusion: | movement from high concentration to low through a membrane protein. NO energy required. |
| Active Transport: | movement across the membrane that requires energy (ATP) |
| Endocytosis: | folding membrane that brings material INTO a cell. REQUIRES ENERGY |
| Exocytosis: | movement of materials OUT of a cell. REQUIRES ENERGY |
| Which organelle acts as an intracellular highway? | Endoplasmic Reticulum |
| Which organelle does Bacteria not have? | Golgi Apparatus |
| Cell Walls are; rigid or flexible? | rigid |
| Cell membrane is; rigid or flexible | flexible |
| Phospholipid contains: | Charged phosphate group, Glycerol, and two fatty acid chains |
| Phosphate group is polar or nonpolar? | Polar (charged) |
| Glycerol is polar or nonpolar? | Polar (charged) |
| Fatty Acid Tail is polar or nonpolar? | Nonpolar |
| What strengthens the cell membrane? | Cholesterol |
| What helps materials cross the membrane and are also a part of the cytoskeleton? | Proteins |
| What helps identify cell types? | Carbohydrates |
| A cell may transport a substance in _______ if the substance is too large to cross the membrane. | vesicles |
| During endocytosis, the vesicle membrane fuses witha lysosome, and the membrane and its contents are broken down by lysosomal __. | enzymes |
| Phagocytosis: | means "cell eating." It describes a type of endocytosis |
