Cell Parts Transport
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Active | type of transport that requires energy |
| Hypotonic | when a solution has less concentration of solutes |
| Passive | type of transport that does not require energy |
| Endo | prefix meaning “inside” |
| Diffusion | movement of molecules from high to low concentration |
| Water | a molecule composed of two hydrogen and one oxygen |
| Isotonic | a solution that has equal amount of solutes |
| Permeable | membranes that let some things through, called selectively _____ |
| Homeostasis | the maintaining of internal balance |
| Gradient | a difference in concentration creates a concentration _____ |
| DynamicEquilibrium | condition achieved when molecules are evenly spaced in an area and still moving |
| Hypertonic | when a solution has a greater concentration of solutes |
| Endocytosis | engulfing of large particles into the cell |
| Exo | prefix meaning “outside” |
| Osmosis | diffusion of water across a membrane |
| ChannelProtein | helps move things across the membrane |
| Membrane | outer boundary of a cell |
| Facilitated | a form of passive transport where a channel lets a molecule flow down its concentration gradient through a membrane; _____ diffusion |
| RoughER | A highly folded membrane that is the site of protein and lipid synthesis |
| CellMembrane | lipid bilayer surrounding cell, regulating what enters and exits the cell |
| Cytoskeleton | A framework for the cell within the cytoplasm |
| Mitochondria | Membrane-bound organelle that makes energy available to the rest of the cell |
| Flagella | Long projection from cell surface which aids in locomotion and feeding |
| Cilia | Short projection from cell surface that aid in locomotion and feeding. |
| Golgi | Flattened stack of tubular membranes that modify, sort and package proteins into vesicles for distribution. |
| Nucleus | Control center of the cell that contains coded directions for the production of proteins and cell division |
| Chloroplast | Double membraned organelle which converts sunlight, water and carbon dioxide into glucose |
| Prokaryotes | Single-celled organisms without membrane bound organelles or nucleus |
| Centrioles | Paired organelles that are important for cell division |
| Ribosome | Organelle that is the site of protein synthesis |
| Lysosome | Vesicle that contains digestive enzymes for the breakdown of excess or worn-out cellular substances |
| CellWall | Inflexible barrier providing protection and structure in plants |
| Eukaryotes | cells containing membrane bound organelles |
| Nucleolus | site in nucleus of ribosome production |
| Respiration | burning of sugar with oxygen to yield carbon dioxide and water |
| Photosynthesis | conversion of sunlight, water and carbon dioxide into sugar |
| Phospholipidbilayer | double layer separating inside from outside |
| Cell | smallest unit of life known to science |
| CenralLargeVacuole | water storage bag in plants that help support the cell wall |
| Cytoplasm | the goo on the inside of cells that everything floats in |
| SmoothER | breaks down toxins, stores calcium and builds phospholipids |
| Golgi | modify, sort and package proteins for transport |
| Vacuole | storage in a cell |
| Vesicle | transporter in a cell |
| ChannelProtein | allows molecules to pass through the cell membrane |
