Cells
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| A process that produces equal and indentical chromosomes into two newly formeds nuclei-- 96 chromosomes end result. | Mitosis |
| Two cell divisions in gamate formation producing sperm and oocyte--from from diploid to haploid--genetic diversity happens here. | Meiosis |
| Division of the cytoplasm that occurs after the mucleus has divided. | Cytokinesis |
| The first phase of cell division? | Prophase |
| The second stage of cell division? | Metaphase |
| The third stage of cell division? | Anaphase |
| The fourth stage of cell division? | Telophase |
| 46 chromosomes in 23 pairs. | The mumber of chromosomes in the body cell |
| The number of chromosomes in the gamates? | Twenty three |
| Net movement of a substance across a membrane aganist a concentration gradient--requires ATP | Active transport |
| Membrance traonsport process that does NOT require ATP, moves solutes down their concentration gradient--e.g. diffusion | Passive transport |
| The unassisted diffusion of solutes through the plasma and other selective membranes. | Simple diffusion |
| Diffusion assisted by carrier molecules that moves solutes down their concentration gradient. | Facilitated diffusion |
| The passage of a solvent and dissolved substances through a membrane/ filter. | Filtration |
| A stack of flattened, smooth membranous sacs; the site of synthesis and packaging of certain molecules in eukaryotic cells. | Golgi apparatus |
| Studded with ribosomes, this is where the building materials of cell membranes are formed. | Rough ER |
| Plays no role in protein synthesis, functions in lipid metabolism and detoxification. | Smooth ER |
| The rod like cytoplasmic organelles responsible for ATP generation. | Mitochondria |
| Organelles that originate from the Golgi apparatus and contain strong digestive enzymes for the breakdown of unwanted substances. | Lysosomes |
| Cytoplasmic organelles at which proteins are synthesized--here we assemble the amino acid chain. | Ribosomes |
| Membranous sacs that contain powerful oxidase enzymes--they function to disarm dangerous free radicals. | Peroxisomes |
