Cell structure and transportation
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| 3 parts of the cell theory | 1. all living things are made with cells 2. cell is the basic unit of life 3. all cells come from pre-existing cells |
| Schleiden | co-founded the cell theory |
| Schwann | co-founded the cell theory |
| Virchow | discovered that all cells come from pre-existing cells |
| Prokaryotic cells | simpler, no membrane-bound organelles, smaller, more abundant, no nucleus, 1 chromosome, asexual reproduction |
| autogeny | theory of cell evolution-- infolding of the cell membrane |
| endosymbiosis | theory of cell evolution that bigger prokaryotes engulf smaller prokaryotes |
| evidence for endosymbiosis (mad drs) | membranes, antibiotic susceptibility, division, DNA (identical to mom), Ribosomes, Size |
| where is DNA located in a prokaryotic cell? | nucleoid |
| endomembrane system | collection of membranes in eukaryotes-- plasma membrane, nuclear envelope, smooth and rough ER, golgi apparatus, lysosomes, vesicles, and vacuoles |
| functions of the smooth ER | synthesis of lipids, metabolism of carbs, detoxification of drugs/poison, and storage of calcium |
| cytoskeleton is comprised of what? | microfilaments, microtubules, and intermediate filaments (protein) |
| what 3 things must cells be able to process? | 1. information 2. matter 3. energy |
| examples of passive transport | osmosis, simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion |
| What tonicity are plant cells in homeostasis? | Turgid (hypotonic) |
| Turgid | homeostatic plant cell; hypotonic solution |
| Flaccid | plant cell in isotonic solution |
| what does cholesterol do in the cell membrane? | stabilizes membrane and adds structure |
| Peripheral proteins | proteins that do not extend the full length of the membrane |
