Test #2

TermDefinition
When an ionic compound is placed in water the compound breaks apart and releases ions
Acid A compound that releases Hydrogen (H+)
Base A compound that releases Hydroxide (OH-)
Salt A compound that releases neither (H+) or OH-)
pH (potential hydrogen) the standard measurement of the concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) present in a solution
Scale rances from 0 - 14
Lower #'s are _______________ Acidic
Higher #'s are ___________ basic
7 is ______________ which is neutral , pure water
Almost all living things take place in pH between _-_ 6 - 8
Cell Smallest functional unit of life
unicellular 1 cell (bacteria)
Multicellular many cells (animal)
Robert Hooke first to record what he described as "cells"
Cork cells plant cell on the outer edge of the trunks of woody plants
Atnton van Leeuwenhoek - Discovered, single celled organisms he called animalcules - considered the father of microbiology
animalcules bacteria
Luis Pasteur one of the fathers of the germ theory
germ theory the idea that microscopic organisms are responsible for illness
Cell theory (3 things) - cells are the basic unit of life - all organisms are made of one or more cells - All cells arise from existing cells
all cells are surrounded by a _________________ membrane
plasma membrane / cell membrane A thin layer of lipids and proteins that separates the cell contents from the environment and it acts like a barrier with gates
cell membrane ere mostly made of ____________ and Phospholipids keeps the water from flooding the cell
when phospholipids are in water they form a ____________ lipid bilayer
The head likes water = ______________ hydrophilic
The tail does not like water = ____________________ Hydrophobic
REMEMBER TO LOOK AT THE PICTURES TO KNOW WHAT EACH THING LOOKS LIKE!!!!!!!!!!!! REMEMBER TO LOOK AT THE PICTURES TO KNOW WHAT EACH THING LOOKS LIKE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Proteins in cell membranes _________________ - move materials in and out of the cell - identification badges that enable cells to recognize each other
Cytoplasm the matrix that fills the inside of call
The cytoplasm is filled with floating ____________________ that serve particular functions organells
cytoskeleton - gives the cell support and shape
Nucleus center of the cell
Chromatin - in the nucleus - a thin tangled bundle of DNA threads - needed to make new cells and to run the cell
Nucleur envelope surrounds the nucleus and separates the Nucleus from the cytoplasm
Nuclear pores allow compounds in and out of the nucleus
Eukaryotes - cells with a nucleus - plants and animals
Prokaryotes - - cells without a nucleus - Bacteria and similar unicellular organisms
Organells small organ like structures that preform specific functions for the cell
Ribosoms - built inside the nucleus - built of proteins - either suspended in the cytoplasm, or bound to other organelles
Lots of ribosome in a row _______________________ work like an assembly line
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Extensive network of membranes that produce materials for the cell like a factory
2 types: Rough ER, Smooth ER
Rough ER - has ribosome on its surface - helps build proteins and membranes
Smooth ER - builds lipids - processes carbohydrates Modifies chemicals that are toxic to the cell
Golgi apparatus - A series of flat , membrane bound cells where molecules are stored , often modified , packaged, and distributed to their destination - the cells package center
Mitochondria - changes the energy that is stored in food compounds into a form that is useful for the cell, a molecule called adenosine triphosphate ( ATP) - the powerhouse of the cell - energy is generated
Lysosomes digests old organelles that are no longer useful to the cell
Movement cilia Flagella
Celia - Short hair like projections that usually occur in large numbers on the surface of certain cells - help unicellular organisms move, also found in multicellular organisms EX: the lungs
Flagella Long tail like projection. organisms usually only have one or a few flagella
plant and animal cells are different plants have __________________, _______________________, and __________________ walls, chloroplast, vacuoles
cell wall I addition to a membrane , plant cells also have walls surrounding the cell
Chloroplast - An organelle that performs photosynthesis - helps plant build sugars, using energy from the sun
Central vacuole - large central compartment that serves many functions
Central vacuoles functions : - absorbs water - store protein , ions, and waste products of metabolism
How can cells take in nutrients and get rid of waist? The cells semipermeable membrane allows some things to pass through and prevents others
2 ways that materials can pass through this membrane 1)__________________________________ 2)__________________________________ 1) Passsive transport 2) Active transport
Passive transport No need for cels energy (ATP) (-Simple diffusion - Facilitated diffusion)
Active transport Needs cells energy (ATP) to allow passage
Passive transport: Simple diffusion Molecules spread out so all areas have an equal concentration
Diffusion The random movement molecules from areas of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration
Concentration The amount of a substance in a solution
Passive transport: facilitated diffusion - Molecules move down the concentration gradient, from higher concentration to lower concentration - Requires the use of carrier proteins ex: Glucose (large molecule) enters cells with facilitated diffusion
Passive transport: Osmosis -The diffusion of water across the semipermeable membrane
Water moves from solutions with ____________ water concentration to solutions with ___________ water concentrations higher lower
the _________ is the thing moving water
Osmosis and solution concentration 3 ways cells react to osmosis effects of different solution concentrations - Hypertonic - Isotonic - Hypototonnic
Hypertonic cells the cell become shriveled and unhealthy
Isotonic cells Healthy and normal cells
Hypotonic cells These cells can burst due to too much water
IVs and maintaining solution balance in blood Intravenous fluids are isotonic solutions that are used to replenish fluids in the body . ( given through needle into bloodstream. help replenish the balance and concentration of fluids in your body if you become dehydrated or other kind of imbalance
Active transport The cell must use energy to transport object in and out of the membrane
what for is the energy that transports objects in and out of the membrane in? ATP
what does ATP do unlocked the carrier proteins to allow molecules in and out
Do molecules move towards or against the concentration gradient ? Molecules move against the concentration gradient from low concentration to high concentration
What is bulk movement? When the cell needs to transport very large molecules across the membrane 2 types : 1) endocytosis 2 exocytosis
Exocytosis Waste and cell products are packaged by the Golgi apparatus in sacs called Golgi vesicles. The vesicles fuse with the cell membrane and secrete the materials out of the cell
Endocytosis The cell membrane surrounds desirable molecules that are outside the cell. the membrane creates a vesicle and moves in into the cell, where it can either send the contents to organelles or release it into the cytoplasm
Pinocytosis Encloses a droplet of liquid and its solutes (drinking)
Phagocytosis Encloses a solid substance instead of a liquid (eating)
