QuestionAnswer
Sodium diffusion into cells occurs_____ the loss of K+ simultaneously to
The Na+K+ exchange pump is a special type of ion pump called an _____ pump because it moves one type of ion into a cell ____ its concentration gradient and another type of ion out of the cell _____ its concentration gradient exchange, against, against
When a cell is dividing, the DNA is tightly coiled as chromosomes
The organelle that has a double membrane, its own small piece of DNA, and synthesizes ATP is the mitochondrion
K+ movement out of the cell is facilitated by its _____ gradient but opposed by the ____ gradient chemical concentration, electrical
Sodium ions move into the cell through ___ -mediated diffusion channel
Gap junctions are bridged by proteins called connexons
The cytosol close to the plasma membrane contains relatively more ____ ions than does the interstitial fluid that is close to the plasma membrane K+
The cell membrane contains/consists of phospholipid bilayer, several different types of lipids, cholesterol
A transmission electron microscope (TEM) uses an ____ to create an image for viewing electron beam
Contains receptors that recognize and respond to molecular signals communication
Establishes and maintains an electrical charge difference across the plasma membrane Electrochemical gradients
Phospholipid bilayer separates substances inside and outside the cell Physical barrier
Regulates entry and exit of ions, nutrients, and waste molecules through the membrane Selective permeability
The plasma membrane is made up of three types of lipids: cholesterol, phospholipids, and ____ glycolipids
Na+ and K+ are moved in _____ directions to maintain the resting membrane potential opposite
When a protein is marked for destruction by having a protein called ubiquitin bound to it, the organelle responsible for this removal are proteasomes
Interconnected network of membrane tubules and vesicles; no ribosomes attached Smooth ER
Double membrane structure with cristae Mitochondria
Stacked series of flattened, smooth membrane sacs with associated transport vesicles Golgi apparatus
Flattened intracellular network of membrane sacs called cisternae; ribosomes attached on cytoplasmic surface Rough ER

Cytosol is also called intracellular fluid
Cytosol is high in water content
Cytosol contains many ____ solutes dissolved
Cytosol contains proteins and carbohydrates
The amount of rough ER is greater in cells that produce a large amount of proteins for secretion
____ are attached to rough ER Ribosomes

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.
