Cells & Diffusion
Part A
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Organelles in an Animal Cell that are NOT in a plant cell | Lysosomes & Centrioles |
| Organelles in a Plant cell that are NOT in an animal cell | Cell wall & Chloroplasts |
| Diffusion | Movement from areas of high to low concentration of molecules. |
| Osmosis | Movement of water molecules from high to low concentration of water |
| Permeable | Any molecule can diffuse to another membrane |
| Semi - Permeable | Only certain molecules can diffuse to another membrane |
| Non - Permeable | No molecules can diffuse |
| Nucleus | controls the cell growth and reproduction |
| Cell Membrane | Allows molecules to go in/out of the cell, molecules diffuse in/out of a cell & made of 2 phosphorus layers interconnected |
| Cell Wall | Does not allow molecules in/out |
| Chromosones | Proteins that contain DNA which has coded info for making molecules. |
| Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) | Produces & stores proteins |
| Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) | Produces fats & oils |
| Golgi Bodies | Modifies & packages proteins from rough ER with enzymes |
| Ribosomes | Helps rough ER make proteins, & is attached to rough ER |
| Centrioles | helps with mitosis & spindle fibres come from here |
| Mitochondria | Converts sugar into energy for the cell |
| Cytoplasm | Fluid in the cell & allows organelles to move around |
| Vacuole | Stores water,minerals & vitamins ; Much bigger in plant cells |
| Lysosomes | Breaks down food including bacteria, old/damaged organelles |
| Chloroplasts | Uses sunlight to make its own food : photosynthesis (CO2 + H2O + Light --> Sugar + O2) |
