Cells and Diffusion

TermDefinition
Nucleus Found in both animal and plant cells - controls all the activities of the cell
Vacuoles Found in both animal and plant cells - stores water, minerals and vitamins; much bigger in plant cells
Cell Membrane Found in both animal and plant cells - allows certain molecules to go in and out of the cell ; molecules diffuse in or out of the cell ; made up of a phosphorus layers interconnected
Cell Wall Found in plant cells - does not allow molecules in or out; supports and protects the cell
Chromosomes Found in both animal and plant cells - proteins that contain DNA which has coded information for making molecules
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum Found in both animal and plant cells - produces and stores proteins
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum Found in both animal and plant cells - produces and stores fats and oils
Golgi Bodies Found in both animal and plant cells - modifies and packages proteins from rough endoplasmic reticulum with enzymes
Ribosomes Found in both animal and plant cells - helps rough endoplasmic reticulum make proteins ; is attached to the rough endoplasmic reticulum
Centrioles Found in animal cells - helps with cell division (mitosis) ; spindle fibres come from here
Mitochondria Found in both animal and plant cells - converts sugar into energy
Cytoplasm Found in both animal and plant cells - fluid in cells ; allows organelles to move around
Centrioles Found in animal cells - helps with cell division (mitosis) ; spindle fibres come from here
Lysosomes Found in animal cells - breaks down food, invading bacteria and old/damaged organelles
Chloroplasts Found in plant cells - uses sunlight to make its own food ; photosynthesis ( CO2 + H2O + light --> C6H12O6 + O2)
Mitochondria Found in both animal and plant cells - converts sugar into energy
Osmosis the movement of molecules from areas of low concentration to high concentration
Cytoplasm Found in both animal and plant cells - fluid in cells ; allows organelles to move around
Lysosomes Found in animal cells - breaks down food, invading bacteria and old/damaged organelles
Chloroplasts Found in plant cells - uses sunlight to make its own food ; photosynthesis ( CO2 + H2O + light --> C6H12O6 + O2)
Diffusion the movement of molecules from areas of high concentration to low concentration
Osmosis the movement of water molecules from high concentration to low concentration
Centrioles Found in animal cells - helps with cell division (mitosis) ; spindle fibres come from here

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.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
