BIO 101 - TEST 1

QuestionAnswer
Differentiation / specialization cells are different and have a special job, things change to become certain types of cells
cell membrane outer protection of cell, made up of phospholipids
cytoplasm fluid on inside of cell
endoplasmic reticulum membrane-bound flattened sacs and vessicles, functions as transport network
rough endoplasmic reticulum contains ribosomes and functions in protein synthesis
smooth endoplasmic reticulum does not contain ribosomes
ribosome synthesize proteins
golgi apparatus Packages protein molecules for transport and secretion
mitochodrion - powerhouse of cell, produces energy in the form of ATP, double membraned, has its own DNA - elongated fluid sacs
lysosome - breaks down materials body doesn't need or are foreign - digestive sac
peroxisome - breakdown of fatty acids - membraneous sacs similar to lysosome (contains different set of enzymes than lysosomes)
cytoskeleton - microfilaments - used in cell movement - microtubules - used for cell division
centrosome (centriole) made of microtubules
cilia small hairs, mobile extensions of cell
flagellum whip-like tail
vacuole storage center for food, water, ions
nucleas contains genetic information, "brain" of cell
nuclear envelope/membrane outer protection of nucleas
nucleolus middle dense portion of nucleas, where ribosome parts are manufactured
Chromatin loosely coiled, fibers composed of protein and DNA
Chromosomes tightly packed DNA
Diffusion movement of materials in/out of cell
facilitated diffusion uses protein channels to move things in and out
active transport vs. passive transport (re: diffusion) active - uses a lot of energy passive - uses very little energy
filtration (re: diffusion) allows certain things to move in or out
pumps (re: diffusion) Two things that work opposite of each other where one thing goes out, the other comes in
osmosis form of diffusion but ONLY for water, water always wants to balance concentrations
tonicity (re: osmosis) how much solute is outside of cell
hypertonic, hypotonic, isotonic (re: diffusion) higher solute level than cell, lower solute level than cell, same solute level as cell
exocytosis moving things out of cell
endocytosis moving things into cell
pinocytosis bringing in liquids to cells
mitosis asexual cell division
cancer uncontrolled mitosis in a location
prophase (re: mitosis) nuclear envelope starts to break down, you can see chromosomes
prometaphase (re: mitosis) centrioles are at poles, paired chromosomes move towards equator
metaphase (re: mitosis) chromosomes are AT equator
anaphase (re: mitosis) chromosomes start to split apart and move to poles
telophase (re: mitosis) chromosomes have moved to poles and start to form new nuclei
cytokinesis (re: mitosis) when cells split into two daughter cells using cleavage furrow
stem cells (totipotent) can make every type of cell possible
progenitor cells (pluripotent) can make MOST cells, but not all
apoptosis programmed cell death ( by choice), cell has aged and is lacking in efficiency
necrosis cell death due to injury, toxins, lack of blood supply
metabolism the process by which the body converts food and drink into energy
catabolism (re: metabolism) larger molecules are broken down or decomposed into smaller ones
hydrolysis (re: metabolism) breaking down of a disaccharide into to monosaccharides
anabolism (re: metabolism) small to large molecules
dehydration synthesis (re: metabolism -> anabolism) removing water molecule to create something new
enzymatic control catalyst enzyme - specialized protein that breaks down or combines one specific molecule, called its substrate.
metabolic pathways (re: enzymes) multiple steps and multiple enzymes
cofactor (re: enzymes) enzyme working w/ something else that's a non-enzyme
coenzyme (re: enzymes) enzymes or enzymes + protein working together
denaturation (re: enzymes) enzyme can be broken down, but not necessarily when you want it to
chemical energy if you have it, you have the ability to do work
cellular respiration (ATP) ability for cell to make energy
glycolysis (re: cell respiration) breakdown of sugar, happens outside of mitochondria -1 glucose -> 2 pyruvic acids
citric acid cycle (re: cell respiration) central metabolic pathway that oxidizes acetyl-CoA to produce energy in the form of ATP, aerobic
fermentation (re: cell respiration) anaerobic, happens in muscles, lactic acid, no oxygen in muscle cytoplasm
genome total genetic information we carry
exome part of the DNA that codes for proteins
DNA molecule that carries the genetic instructions for the development, functioning, and reproduction of all known organisms
replication (re: DNA) multiple enzymes, opens double helix, matches new nucleotides together, A-T, C-G
RNA goes into nucleas, makes copy of DNA (one side), takes copy and chops out what it doesn't need, takes that and heads to ribosome
RNA transcription the process of creating a messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule from a DNA template
exons, introns expressed regions of which we all have the same ones, expressed regions of which we all have different ones
translation (protein synthesis) DNA leaves and heads to nucleas at the ribosome, tRNA (transfer RNA) carries amino acids
phagocytosis bringing solids into cell
receptor-mediated (re: endocytosis) can only come in if it matches receptor
electron transport chain oxidated phosphorization, most ATP formed here
ETC and citric acid cycle vs. fermentation Citric acid cycle and ETC are parts of aerobic respiration and produce large amounts of ATP while fermentation is anaerobic and produces low amounts of ATP

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.
