Swag all day long
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Cell Theory | a.) All living things are made of cells b.) Cells are the basic units of structure and function of all living things c.) New cells are produced from existing cells |
| What invention lead to the discovery of cells? | The Invention of the Microscope |
| Define Phospholipid Bilayer | The doubled layered sheet structure of a cell me rane that is made up of phospholipids |
| List 5 Organelles | Mitochondria, Golgi body, Ribosomes, Lysosomes, Endoplasmic Reticulum, Nucleus, Nucleolus, Vacuole, Chloroplasts, Cell Membrane, and Cell wall |
| Phospholipid | Class of lipids that are major componets of all cell membranes |
| Phospholipid Bilayer | The doubled 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 Premeable | Some substances are allowed to pass when others are not |
| Passive Transport | The movement of materials across the cell membrane without the use of energy |
| Simple Diffusion | The process by which molecules of a substance move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentrations |
| Facilitated Diffusion | A process in which molecules pass trough special proteins channels because they cannot directly diffuse across a membrane |
| Osmosis | A process by which molecules of a solvent tend to pass through a semipermeabl membrane from a less concentrated solution into a more concentrated one, thus equalizing the concentration on each side of the membrane |
| Aquaporin | A water channel protein that is located in a cell membrane that allows water to pass right thorugh them |
| Isotonic | Concentration of solutes are the same inside and outside of the cell |
| Hypotonic | The outside of the cell has a higher solute concnetration than inside the cell |
| Hypertonic | the outside of the cell has a lower solute concentration than the inside the cell |
