Cells and Diffusion
Part A
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| the cell | basic unit of life, cell is made out of smaller parts called organelles |
| Nucleus | Contains all activities of the cell, growth and reproduction, both in A and P |
| Cell membrane | Allows certain molecules to go in or out of the cell, made of two phosphorus layers, in both A and P |
| Cell Wall | supports cell and protects, does not allow anything pass the wall, only in plant |
| Diffusion | Momemnet from areas of high to low concentration of molecules |
| Chromosomes | Proteins that contains DNA, has the condon for making molecules, In both A and P |
| rough endoplasmic reticulum | Produces and stores proteins, in both A and P |
| Smooth endoplasmic reticulum | Produces and stores fats and oils, in both A and P |
| Golgi Bodies | Modifies proteins from rough ER with emzymes, in both A and P |
| Ribosomes | helps rough ER make proteins and is attached to rough ER, in both A and P |
| Centrioles | Helps with cell division (Mitosis) and where spindle fibers come from, Only in A |
| Mitrochondria | Converts sugar into energy for the cell, In both A and P |
| Cytoplasms | Fluid inside the cell, allow organells to move around in both A and P |
| Vacuole | Stores water, minerals and vitamins in both A and P |
| Lysosomes | Breaks down food, bacteria, old/damaged organelles and if the skin dont break down you have cancer, Only In A |
| Cloroplasts | Uses sunlight to make it's own food, Photosyntesis, Only in plants |
| Formula for photosinthesis | CO2 +H2O + Light --> Sugar +O2 |
| Peramable | Any molecule can pass through |
| Semi Peramable | Some molecule can pass through ( cell membrane ) |
| Non Peramable | No molecule can pass through (Cell wall) |
| Osmosis | Movement of water molecules from high to low concentration of water |
| Smallest to lowest | Organelles - Cells - Tissue - Organs - Organ System |
