Moving materials out of all | Exocytosis |
One cell | Unicellular |
contains hundreds, thousands, even trillion or more cells | Multicellular |
no nucleus, no membrane, unicellular | Prokaryotic |
have nucleus, have a membrane, multicellular | Eukaryotic |
dying cells- cell death | Autolysis |
moving materials into cell | Endocytosis |
stored energy | Potential energy |
energy of motion | Kinetic energy |
self feeder | Autotrophs |
eat after organisms to get their food | Heterotrophs |
energy molecule | ATP |
build molecules | Anabolic |
breaks down molecules | Catabolic |
requires energy | Endergonic |
releases energy | Exergonic |
a process that uses sunlight, C2O, and water to make sugar | Photosynthesis |
series of proteins that more high energy electrons | Electrons Transport Chain (ETC) |
a process that does not require oxygen | Anaerobic |
a process that requires oxygen | Aerobic |
make all other cells | Somatic cell |
the process of fusion | Fertilization |
results of the fusion of sperm + ovum | Zygota |
sex of all (sperm + ovum) | Gamete |
Genetically identical offspring | Asexual |
the smallest basic unit of life that is responsible of all life's processes | Cell |
movement of molecules from an area high concentration to an area of low concentration | Diffusion |
no energy | Passive Transport |
requires energy | Active Transport |
this facilitated movement of water through a selectively permeable membrane | Osmosis |
a process that uses oxygen to help break down food molecules such as sugars | Cellular Respiration |
requires the direct involvement of light and light absorbing pigment | Light Dependent Reactions |
takes place in the stroma | The Calvin Cycle |
are used to synthesize high-energy sugars | Light Independent Reaction |
the process by which a cell divides is called | Cellular Division |
some genetic information from each parent | Sexual |
