quiz 2 and exam 1

QuestionAnswer
are the building blocks to all plants and animals cells
Cilia are long extensions containing microtubule doublets in a 9  2 array Cilia
sex cells are also called germ cells
Female oocyte a cell that develops into an egg
each cell maintains.. at the cellular level homeostasis
Somatic Cells All body cells except sex cells
some means.. body
distributes materials by diffusion Cytosol
Membrane extensions containing microfilaments microvilli
plasma membrane also known as cell membrane
Proteasomes hollow cylinders of proteolytic enzymes with regulatory proteins at their ends
Ribosomes RNA plus proteins
fixed ribosomes are bound to the rough er
Stacks of flattened membranes (cisternae) containing chambers Golgi apparatus
cytoskeleton Proteins organized in fine filaments or slender tubes
Vesicles containing degradative enzymes Peroxisomes
Double membrane, with inner membrane folds (cristae)enclosing important metabolic enzymes Mitochondria
Vesicles containing degradative enzymes Peroxisomes
Lipid bilayer containing phospholipids, steroids, proteins, and carbohydrates Plasma Membrane
Network of membranous channels extending throughout the cytoplasm Endoplasmic reticulum
lysosomes Vesicles containing digestive enzymes
plasma mem function protects, sensitivity to environment,structural support
Cytosol = liquid
Hydrophobic fatty-acid (poloar or non polar) non polar
Integral Proteins also called trans-membrane proteins
Peripheral Proteins Bound to inner or outer surface of the membrane
what is responsible for the regulation of Exchange with the Environment plasma membrane
Anchoring Proteins also known as... and stabilizers... Attach to inside or outside structures
Recognition Proteins known as.. and (identifiers.. label cells as norm or abnorm
Hydrophilic heads (polar or non polar) polar
Receptor Proteins fuction Bind and respond to ligands (ions, hormones)
Carrier Proteins Transport specific solutes through membrane
ligands are know as ions or hormones that bind to receptors
Regulate water flow and solutes through membrane Channels
which membrane carbohydrates extend outside cell membrane Proteoglycans, glycoproteins, and glycolipids
Functions of the glycocalyx (sugarcoat) •Lubrication and Protection •Anchoring and Locomotion • Specificity in Binding (receptors) • Recognition (immune response)
All materials inside the cell and outside the nucleus Cytoplasm
Cytosol (intracellular fluid)
Organelles Structures with specific functions
Membranous organelles • Covered with plasma membrane • Isolated from cytosol • Include the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), the Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, peroxisomes, and mitochondria
what are the 6 types of nonmembranous organelles 1. Cytoskeleton 2. Microvilli 3. Centrioles 4. Cilia 5. Ribosomes 6. Proteasomes
cytoskeleton includes micro-filaments- smallest elements intermediate filaments-varies among cell types microtubules-hollow tubes built from globular protein
Nonmembranous organelles • No membrane • Direct contact with cytosol • Include the cytoskeleton, microvilli, centrioles, cilia, ribosomes, and proteasomes
Enzyme RNA polymerase transcribes DNA DNA to mRNA
Translation mRNA moves then binds to ribosomal subunits and is then delivered
RNA processing At stop signal, mRNA detaches from DNA molecule

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
