cell unit test

unit 3 cell unit review

QuestionAnswer
what are the three parts of the cell theory -all living things are made up of cells -cells come from pre-existing cells -cells are the basic unit of life
what are the 5 common features of all cells cell membrane, cytoplasm, ribosomes, RNA, DNA
what is the function of ribosomes produces proteins
what kinds of organisms have prokaryotic cells bacteria
contrast prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells prokaryote don't have a nuclear or membrane bound organelles, eukaryote do
describe the function of the nucleus it has its own membrane that stores DNA and controls all cell functions
what is the purpose of the endoplasmic reticulum package and transport proteins, carries proteins
what is the responsibility of lysosomes breakdown large food molecules
what does the mitochondria do for the cell make energy; powerhouse of the cell
what three organelles do plant cells have the animals cells don't cell wall, chloroplast, 1 large center vacuole
what kinds of organisms have eukaryotic cells protista, fungi, plant, animal
what is the difference between plant and animal vacuoles plants have 1 large vacuole, animals have many small ones
give examples of what types of cells have many mitochondria or lysosomes muscles have lots of mitochondria and in the digestive tract those cells have a lot of lysosomes
what scientist discovered a way to stain bacteria Hans Gram
what scientist disproved spontaneous generation Louis Pasteur
what scientist discovered penicillin Alexander Fleming
what is a virus non-living disease causing pathogen
what is a retrovirus a virus that uses RNA instead of DNA
describe the cell membrane structure 2 layers with proteins embedded; allows small things to directly pass through, but can select larger particles
name 3 types of passive transport diffusion, osmosis, facilitated diffusion
why is it called "passive" transport it doesn't require energy
what direction do molecules flow during passive transport high to low concentration
define concentration gradient how much stuff in on either side of the membrane
what size particles does passive transport move small
the term hypertonic, hypotonic, and isotonic only refer to the movement of ____ water
what is osmosis the diffusion of water
list 3 types of active transport and what they do sodium/potassium pump- moves sodium and potassium across the membrane endocytosis- process of taking in large molecules exocytosis- process of removing large molecules
what is it called "active" transport and what is required to make it happen it requires energy and a membrane protein
what direction do molecules flow during active tranport low to high
how does HIV effect the body it kills immune system cells
is sars lytic or lysogenic lytic - on a smaller scale and is a repetition of the previous disease
what is the Golgi body function it receives and ships materials
what is the difference between facilitated and simple diffusion simple is when the substance passes between phospholipids facilitated are special membrane channels
