Part A

Cells & Diffusion

TermDefinition
Nucleus - Both Controls all activities of the cell; growth and reproduction (Ex. Brain)
Cell Membrane - Both Allows certain molecules to go in or out of the cell, and is made up of 2 interconnected phosphorus layers . (Ex. Air Filter)
Chromosomes - Both Proteins that contains DNA which has coded information for making molecules. (Ex. DNA)
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum - Both Produces and stores protein (Ex. Assembly Line)
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum - Both Produces and stores fats and oils (Ex. Assembly Line)
Golgi Bodies - Both Modifies and packages protein from Rough Endoplasmic reticulum with enzymes (Ex. Packages)
Ribosomes - Both Helps Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum make proteins, and is attached to it (Ex. Individuals working on an assembly line)
Mitochondria - Both Converts sugar into energy (Ex. Power Plant) (Note. cells that have too much sugar, get stored as fat)
Cytoplasm - Both Fluid in cells; allows organelles to move around (Ex. Swimming Pool)
Vacuole - Both Stores water, minerals, and vitamins (Ex. Water Tower) (Note. MUCH bigger in plants)
Centrioles - Animals Helps with cell division (mitosis) (Ex. Spider web) (Note. Spindle fibers come from here)
Lysosomes - Animals Breaks down food, invading bacteria, and old damaged organelles (Ex. Executioner) (Note. If stopped working, causes Cancer)
Cell Wall - Plant Supports and Protects the cell; does not allow molecules in or out (Ex. Brick Wall) (Note. Produces own energy, so animals don't have a cell wall)
Chloroplasts - Plant Uses sunlight to make its own food (Ex. Solar Panel) (Note. Photosynthesis: (CO2 + H2O + light - - > Sugar + O2)
Diffusion Movement of molecules from areas of high concentration to low concentration
Osmosis Movement of water molecules from high concentration to low concentration of water
Permeable Allows any molecule to diffuse across membrane
Semi-permeable Allows certain molecules to diffuse across membrane (Ex. Cell membrane)
Non-permeable Allows no molecules to diffuse across membrane (Ex. Cell Wall)
Nucleolus - Both Makes Ribosomes

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.
