Cells and Energy

Prokaryotes, Eukaryotes, Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration

TermDefinition
Photosynthesis Conversion of RADIANT energy into CHEMICAL energy.
Cellular Respiration Conversion of CHEMICAL energy to CHEMICAL energy
Glucose Chemical energy, product of photosynthesis, also known as SUGAR
ATP Chemical ENERGY made during cell respiration
Reactants elements or compounds that we START with to create products
Products elements or compounds that are made/ created from reactants
Mitochondria organelle found in eukaryotes that uses glucose to make ATP
Chloroplast organelle found in autotrophic eukaryotes (Plants/some Protist) that makes glucose
Products of photosynthesis oxygen and glucose (sugar)
Products of cellular respiration carbon dioxide, water, and ATP
Non-membrane bound organelles have NO membrane Ex: ribosomes
Membrane- bound organelles have a membrane Ex: nucleus, chloroplast, mitochondria, vacuole
Prokaryotic cells Small, simple, always unicellular, loop DNA, NO Nucleus and NO membrane bound organelles
Eukaryotic cells Larger, complex, with nucleus, membrane bound organelles, and linear DNA. Can be unicellular or multicellular.
Flagella tail-like structure that helps cells move around, can be present on BOTH PRO and EUK
Cilia hair-like structure that helps cells move around, can be present on EUK only
Cell membrane (phospholipid bilayer) maintains homeostasis by allowing molecules in and out of the cell (semipermeable), in BOTH PRO and EUK
Cell wall Provides extra protection and support, Can be found in BOTH: -PRO: some bacteria -EUK: plants and some protists
Cytoplasm Gel like material where reactions occur, in BOTH PRO and EUK
Ribosome Where proteins are made, the only non-membrane bound organelle, in BOTH PRO and EUK
Nucleus hold the DNA (genetic material), EUK cells ONLY
Vacuole store water and some waste, larger in plants, EUK cells ONLY

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.
