AP Bio Sem 1 2/4 Review

QuestionAnswer
ribosome organelle that makes protein - vital for reproduction - found in everything
golgi complex protein and lipid modification and exports products
lysosome is the trash can - reuses what is thrown away
cell membrane outer layer of cell - transport, protection, regulation
steroid/cholesterol keeps the fluidity of the cell
fluid mosaic model describes the main characteristics of the plasma membrane - glycolipid, glycoprotein, phospholipid, integral protein, peripheral protein
facilitated diffusion a passive transport process that moves molecules or ions across a cell membrane with the help of specialized proteins - concentration gradient from high to low
Na/k pump an enzyme that moves sodium and potassium ions across the cell membrane - the sodium is always being pumped out
concentration gradient concentration gradient -way in which molecules move. high to low or low to high
osmotic pressure the minimum pressure needed to prevent the flow of solvent molecules through a semipermeable membrane - essentially to stop osmosis - =-iCRT
water potential = solute potential + pressure potential solute potential = -i(#of ions solute breaks into) C(molar concentration of solute) R(pressure constant = .0831)T(temp in kelvin, 273+c) Pressure is +1 in plant cells w/turgor
isotonic when the cell stays the same
smooth ER synthesizes lipids, make hormones/steroids, helps detoxify cell
cell wall found in plant cells, for structure, protection, and shape
vacuole like a huge blob that is more in plant cells, stores water, nutrients, waste - maintains turgor and regulates water balance
glycolipid lipids attached to a carbohydrate on outer cell membrane - used for recognition and stability
passive transport transport that requires on energy - osmosis, etc
endocytosis taking of things into the cell
eukaryotic cell or organism with clearly defined nucleus - membraned bound organelles
osmoregulation the active regulation of the osmotic pressure of an organism's body fluids, detected by osmoreceptors, to maintain the homeostasis of the organism's water content
plasmolysis the process by which a plant cell loses water and shrinks, causing the cytoplasm and plasma membrane to pull away from the cell wall - hypertonic solution
hypertonic when more water on inside, so cell shrink
endosymbiosis larger cell engulfing a smaller cell that had the ability to be aerobic and create the cells energy
rough ER synthesize and package protein - has a bunch of ribosomes
mitochondria powerhouse of the cell - creates ATP
chloroplast organelle responsible for photosynthesis - sun energy into chem energy
glycoprotein on the outer cell membrane - cell signaling
selective permeability the ability of a membrane to control what substances can pass through it, while blocking others.
active transport requires energy
exocytosis expelled out of cell
prokaryotic no membranes around organelles
osmosis passive transport of high to low concentration to reach equilibrium
solute substance being dissolved
hypotonic explode
phospholipid makes up cel membrane - head is hydrophilic, the tail is hydrophobic
solvent the actual liquid
components of ribosomes? they are made of ribosomal RNA - read mRNA to make aminoacid shains that are turned into proteins
why are ribosomes critical in understanding evoluntionary relationships? they are present in all living organisms, have a highly conserved structure across different species, believed to have originated very early in the history of life, - trace evol.
which structures have double membranes? nuclues, mitochondria, chloroplast - supports endosymbiotic -organelles originated from free-living prokaryotes that were engulfed by ancestral eukaryotic cells
organelles only found in plant cells? chloroplasts and a large central vacuole; these are responsible for photosynthesis and storing water, respectively. Additionally, plant cells also have a cell wall which is not present in animal cells
organelles only in animal? Centrioles are involved in cell division by helping to organize chromosomes, while lysosomes act as the cell's "garbage disposal" by breaking down waste materials.
protein prod from beging to export dna-mrna-ribosome-amino acid-protein- ER packaged and folded-golgi modified and sent off
phospholipid head is hydrophilic (likes water) - tail is hydrophobic
primary function of cell membrane to act as a barrier, protecting the cell by regulating what enters and exits, essentially controlling the flow of substances in and out of the cell while maintaining a stable internal environment
membrane structure to selective permeability? phospholipids
what can go through cell membrane? small, nonpolar molecules to pass through easily, while larger or polar molecules require specific transport proteins
endocytosis move into cell enclosed by a vesicle by plasma membranes
exocytosis a cellular process where a cell releases large molecules or waste products from its cytoplasm to the outside by fusing a vesicle containing the material with the cell membrane
internal membranes and membrane bound organelless creating distinct, physically separated spaces within the cell, allowing for specialized biochemical reactions to occur in each compartment, maintaining optimal conditions for each process and preventing interference from other cellular activities;
similarties b/w prokaryotic and eurkaryotic being alive, having a cell membrane, having DNA, ribosomes, and the ability to divide and reproduce
differences b/w prokaryotic and eurkaryotic prokaryotic cells lack a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles, while eukaryotic cells have a well-defined nucleus and multiple membrane-bound organelles,

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.
