Cells

QuestionAnswer
what invention led to the discovery of cells microscope
3 parts of the cell theroy all living things are made up of cells, cells are the basic unit of structure and function of all living things, new cells are produced from existing cells
golgi apparatus modifies, sorts, and packages proteins and other materials from the ER for storage in the cell or release outside the cell
ER where lipid components of the cell membrane are assembled
lysosome break down lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins into smaller molecules that can be used by the rest of the cell
cytoplasm contains cytosol and all other organelles outside of the nucleus
phospholipid class of lipids that are major components of all cell membranes
phospholipid bailayer double layered sheet structure of a cell membrane that is made up of phospholipids
fluid mosaic model proteins embedded in the membrane tend to move around or float
selectively permeable some substances are allowed to pass across while others are not
passive transport movement of materials across the cell membrane without the use of energy
simple diffusion process by which molecules of substances move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration
facilitated diffusion process win which molecules pass through specials protein channels because they cannot directly diffuse across a membrane
osmosis the (facilitated) diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane
aquaporin water channel protein that is located in a cell membrane that allows water to pass through them
isotonic concentration of solutes are the same inside and outside the cell
hypotonic outside of a cell has a higher solute concentration than inside the cell. water moves out of the cell
hypertonic outside of the cell has a lower solute concentration than inside the cell. water moves into the cell
active transport movement of materials against a concentration gradient that requires the use of energy
protein pump energy from ATP and moves small molecules/ions
endocytosis brings it in
exocytosis pushes it out

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.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
