QuestionAnswer
glass lenses bend light to form an image of a specimen compound light microscope
a computer analyzes a tunnel formed in electron orbitals scanning tunneling microscope
electrons move back and forth across the surface creating a 3-D image scanning electron microscope
a photograph of an image formed with a microscope micrograph
electrons pass through a thin section of cells to form an image transmission electron microscope
these occur only in photosynthetic eukaryotic plants chloroplasts
a muscle cell might have thousands of these organelles mitochondria
these are organelles that absorb sunlight energy and produce ATP chloroplasts
inner folds of this structure are called cristae mitochondria
these are plastids that resemble certain photosynthetic bacteria chloroplasts
this is the site of photosynthesis in plant cells chloroplasts
this organelle contains most of the cells DNA and is bound with a porous membrane nucleus
very small organelles, made of two subnunits that function in making proteins, cells may contain thousands ribosomes
two types exist in cells: one is a long hollow tube stretching across the cell and the other is small protein fibers that form a weblike structure cytoskeleton
this organelle usually begins at the nucleus and winds back and forth forming channels for materials to travel through endoplasmic reticulum
this organelle looks like flattened sacs on top of each other, small vesicles can be seen breaking off from it to leave the cell golgi apparatus
has 2 membranes with pores, surrounds nucleus nuclear envelope
performs digestion of old cell parts or other cells lysosome
makes up the cell's surface area cell membrane
forms a pathway for proteins endoplasmic reticulum
everything between the nucleus and cell membrane cytoplasm
reinforces, organizes and moves cell parts cytoskeleton
place where ATP is formed (energy) mitochondria
modifies and ships proteins golgi body/golgi apparatus
proteins assembled here ribosomes
provides protection and support for plant cells cell wall
contains and separates the DNA from the rest of the cell nucleus
place for storage vacuoles
a pair of small cylinders made of microtubules centrioles
food (sugar) production takes place here chloroplast
site where ribosomes are formed nucleolus
main site of lipid synthesis, has no ribosomes smooth ER
what cells require energy to carry out cell functions bacteria, plant, animal
what cells have a cytoskeleton bacteria, plant, animal
what cells have lysosomes animal
what cells have ribosomes to make proteins bacteria, plant, animal
what cells have chloroplasts plant
what cells use one large central vacuole for storage plant
what cells have DNA bacteria, plant, animal
what cells have a nucleus with a membrane around it plant, animal
what cells have a cell wall bacteria, plant
any movement with the concentration gradient, cell expends no energy diffusion
applies to the movement of materials other than water passive transport
diffusion of water across a membrane osmosis
membrane pushes into the cell bringing material in endocytosis
net movement is against the gradient active transport
vesicle moves outward and fuses with cell membrane which opens releasing material exocytosis
why is a cell membrane called fluid? It is flexible because its proteins and lipids are separate but loosely attached
Why is a cell membrane called a mosaic? It is made of many different components, such as phospholipids, proteins and carbohydrates
What is the function of cholesterol in the membrane? Its function is to regulate fluidity of the membrane, make it less permeable to small hydrophilic molecules, and separate phospholipid tails to prevent crystallization
what is the function of carbohydrate chains in the membrane? they form specialized cites on the cell surface to allow cells to recognize one another, and they attract water to the cell's surface
what is the function of embedded proteins in the membrane? they facilitate movement of solutes across the membrane and may serve as enzymes, catalyzing reactions
which part of the bilipid layer is hydrophilic? the heads on the outside
which part of the bilipid layer is hydrophobic? the tails on the inside
plasmodesmata channels in plant cell walls that allow cytoplasm to move through into adjacent cells
tight junction animal cell junction, prevents leaking of materials, can be found in cells of linings, created by protein adherence
gap junction animal cell junction, link cytoplasm of neighboring cells through membrane channels, enable cells to communicate by sharing ions, nutrients and low molecular weight substances
adhering junction join cells of organs that need to stretch (skin, heart, etc.), works like a rivet, form when cadherins in plasma membrane attach to intermediate filaments

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.
