Ch 2 Cell in Action
There are many processes carried out in the cell.
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Diffusion | The movement of any kind of particles from areas of high concentration to low concentration |
| Osmosis | The movement of WATER molecules from areas of high concentration to low concentration |
| Endocytosis | The process of cells taking in nutrients (active) |
| Exocytosis | The process of cells putting out waste products (active) |
| Active Transport | Moving the materials into or out of a cell with the use of extra energy (ATP) |
| Passive Transport | Moving the materials into or out of a cell without the use of extra energy (no ATP) |
| Cellular Respiration takes in | Glucose (food) and oxygen (G,O) go in |
| Cellular Respiration releases | Energy (ATP), Carbon Dioxide, and Water (E,CO,W) |
| Photosynthesis takes in | Carbon Dioxide, Water, and Sunlight (CO,W,S) |
| Photosynthesis releases | Glucose (food) and oxygen (G,O) go out |
| Cellular Respiration | Breaking down food WITH OXYGEN to release energy (ATP) |
| Fermentation | Breaking down food WITHOUT OXYGEN to release energy (ATP) |
| Chromosomes | Bundles of DNA instructions |
| Interphase | The longest stage when the cell grows and makes copies of its chromosomes |
| Prophase | The stage when the membrane around the nucleus dissolves and the chromosomes condense into rod-like structures |
| Metaphase | The stage when the chromosomes meet in the middle of the cell |
| Anaphase | The stage when the chromosomes pull away from each other |
| Telophase | The stage when new nuclei form around the chromosomes |
| Cytokinesis | The stage when the cell divides and becomes two separate cells |
| A way to remember the stages of the cell cycle in order | After a long INTROduction, the PRO MET ANNA at the TELephone booth for CHINESE food |
| Glucose | Food that is prepared by plants by capturing the energy of sunlight in their chloroplasts |
| Chloroplast | The organelle where photosynthesis takes place and food is prepared |
| Mitochondrion | The organelle where cellular respiration takes place and energy is released |
| Binary Fission | Bacteria reproduce through this method. DNA copies and bacteria pinch in the middle and separate |
| Photosynthesis | Plants make food (glucose) by using sunlight |
