| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Cell Wall | Helps to protect & support cell (only in plant cells) |
| Cell Membrane | Controls what substances enter/exit cells |
| Cytoplasm | Gel-like substance, where different organelles are found |
| Mitochondria | Makes energy, "powerhouse" |
| Lysosomes | Eats dead cells |
| Vacuole | Stores mostly water, food, and worn out cells "storage center" |
| Endoplasmic Reticulum | Moves stuff through the cell, BUT NOT OUT! |
| Ribosomes | "Factories" that produce proteins/foods |
| Nucleus | "Brain of the cell" |
| Nuclear Membrane | Double Layered membrane surrounding nucleus |
| Chromosomes | Where DNA is |
| Golgi Body | Moves stuff OUTSIDE of the cell |
| Chloroplast | Where photosynthesis occurs |
| Prokaryotic/Eurcaryotic | Prokaryotic cells don't have a nucleus while eukaryotics do. |
| Resolution | The clarity of something |
| Magnification | Make something appear bigger |
| This is a blank card. | Jake. |
| Selectively Permiable | Picky about what goes in and out of a cell |
| Diffusion | Move substances about the cell membrane.(gases) |
| Osmosis | Moves liquids about the cell membrane |
| Active Transport | Moves solids about the cell membrane |
| Passive Transport | Movement through the cell membrane without using energy |
| Autotroph | Organism that makes its own food |
| Heterotroph | Organism that can't make its own food |
| Stomata | Where the second stage of photosynthesis takes place |
| Chlorophyll | Found in the chloroplast (only plant cells) |
| CELL CYCLE | Stage1- Interphase Stage2- Mitosis Stage3- Cytokinesis |
| Interphase | Stage 1. Cell grows, copies DNA. Longest phase |
| Mitosis | Begins dividing into 2 cells. Happens in 4 stages: Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase |
| Mitosis-PROPHASE | Chromosomes become visible |
| Mitosis-METAPHASE | Chromosomes begin to seperate |
| Mitosis-ANAPHASE | Chromosomes split, and begin to move apart |
| Mitosis-TELOPHASE | Becomes more circular, and 2 new nuclei begin to appear (cell plate forms in plant cells) |
| Cytokineses | Cytoplasm divides, two new cells are created. Last phase |
| Hooke | 1st to see (dead) cells |
| Leeuwenhoek | 1st to see live cells |
| Schleiden | Said all plants are made of cells |
| Schwann | Said all animals also have cells |
| Virchow | All living things have cells |
| Cell Theory | 1. All living things have cells 2. Cells are basic unit of structure in living things 3. All cells are produced from other cells |
| Compound Microscope | Uses more than one lens. Less powerful |
| Electron Microscope | Uses a beam of electrons instead of light |
| 4 Organic Compounds | Carbs, lipids (fats), proteins, & Nucleic acids |
| Active/Passive | Active transport uses energy to move things throughout the cell membrane, and passive transport doesn't |
| Photosynthesis Equation | 6CO2 + 62O + Energy --> C6H12O6 + 6O2 |
| Cell Respiration | C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 620 + 6CO2 |
| CR & Photo Differences | The equations are innervated/reversed |
| Photosynthesis Stages | Stage1 - Capture sunlight. (in chloroplast) Stage2 - Use energy to make food (stomata) |
| Cell Respiration | Stage1 is in Cytoplasm Stage2 is in Mitochondria |
