BIO101 HUMAN A&P

BIO101 CH 03-04 STUDY

QuestionAnswer
FOUNDATION OF LIFE; smallest units that make up tissues, organs, and systems cells
Carries all organelles; consists of organelles w specific functions, suspended in liquid called cytosol. cytoplasm
contains genetic material, directs cell's activities nucleus
2-layered phospholipid film with embedded proteins aka plasma membrane cell membrane
separates intracellular fluid (cytosol) from extracellular fluid; selectively permeable; signal transduction cell membrane
CELL MEMBRANE FRAMEWORK; ALL plasma membranes have a ___ phospholipid bilayer
stabilizes membrane, helps keep it impermeable to water soluble substances CHOLESTEROL
has many functions: pores, channels, receptors, enzymes, cell contact and id, CAMs (cell adhesion molecules) MEMBRANE PROTEINS
cell recognition and interaction, SELF MARKERS CARBOHYDRATES
consists of networks of membranes and organelles suspended in cytosol cytoplasm
cytosol + organelles = cytoplasm
fluid portion of the cytoplasm (ONLY JELLY) CYTOSOL
tiny solid structures with specific functions in the cell (ONLY SOLID) ORGANELLES
What is the supporting framework of protein rods and tubules, located in the cytoplasm? CYTOSKELETON
composed of protein and RNA; structural support and enzyme activity to link amino acids in PROTEIN SYNTHESIS ribosomes
membrane-bound sacs; Rough ER contains ribosomes, CONDUCTS PROTEIN SYNTHESIS. Smooth ER doesn't have ribosomes; CONDUCTS LIPID SYNTHESIS endoplasmic reticulum (ER)
membranous sacs; STORE OR TRANSPORT SUBSTANCES vesicles
sacs of flattened, membranous sacs; REFINES, PACKAGES, & DELIVERS PROTEINS made on the RER Golgi Apparatus
Membrane-bound, fluid-filled sacs; POWERHOUSE OF THE CELL; house chemical re3actions that EXTRACT ENERGY FROM NUTRIENTS (cellular resp > produces ATP) job is to synthesize energy mitochondria
small membranous sacs; contain ENZYMES THAT DIGEST protein, carbs, nucleic acids, bacteria, debris, worn out cell parts; GARBAGE DISPOSAL of cell; contains lysozyme (enzyme made of protein) lysosomes
membranous sacs similar to lysosomes; contain ENZYMES THAT DIGEST LIPIDS, alcohol, hydrogen peroxide; helpful in digestion peroxisomes
"central body"; consists of 2 CENTRIOLES; is in cytoplasm, near nucleus; centrioles are cylindrical microtubules; centrosome
PRODUCES SPINDLE FIBERS DURING CELL DIVISION, which distribute chromosomes to forming daughter cells. centrioles
*job is "to move"; mobile extensions of cell membranes; propel mucus in RESPIRATORY TRACT, propel egg toward uterus cilia
another type of motile extension from cell membrane; TAIL OF A SPERM cell is the only flagellum in human cells flagella
CILIA can always be found on cells with ____. mucous membranes
contains GENETIC MATERIAL AND CONTROLS CELL ACTIVITIES. cell nucleus
separates nucleoplasm from cytoplasm; several NUCLEAR PORES allow passage of certain substances nuclear envelope
dense body of RNA & PROTEIN; SITE OF RIBOSOME PRODUCTION; job: synthesize RNA/proteins nucleolus
consists of cell's chromosomes, each containing DNA WOUND AROUND PROTEINS; DNA + proteins combined. chromatin
DO NOT REQUIRE CELLULAR ENERGY (ATP) D, F, FD Physical (Passive) mechanisms
movement of atoms, molecules, or ions, FROM REGION OPF HIGHER CONCENTRATION TO REGION OF LOWER CONCENTRATION; occurs only with substances that the CELL MEMBRANE IS PERMEABLE to: Oxygen, carbon dioxide, other lipid-soluble substances diffusion
Ability of a solution outside cell to alter water volume inside cell tonicity *there are 3 types of tonicity
(tonicity) same osmotic pressure; cells in an THIS solution have NO NET GAIN OR LOSS OF WATER. *inside and outside are the same; ex: saline solution Isotonic solution
higher osmotic pressure; cells in THIS solution LOSE WATER . *high concentration of solute Hypertonic solution
lower osmotic pressure; cells in THIS solution GAIN WATER; *low solute concentration Hypotonic solution
(3 types of endocytosis) membrane ENGULFS DROPLETS OF LIQUID pinocytosis
(3 types of endocytosis) membrane ENGULFS SOLID PARTICLES phagocytosis
(3 types of endocytosis) membrane ENGULFS SPECIFIC SUBSTANCES, which have bound receptor proteins on the membrane Receptor-mediated endocytosis
Sum of all chemical reactions occurring in a cell; metabolic reactions usually occur in pathways or cycles cellular metabolism
small molecules are BUILT INTO LARGER ONES; REQUIRES (ATP) ENERGY ex: dehydration synthesis anabolism
larger molecules are BROKEN DOWN INTO SMALLER ONES; RELEASES ENERGY; ATP IS PRODUCED. ex: hydrolysis catabolism
require ATP; includes: active transport, endocytosis, exocytosis, transcytosis. active transport mechanisms
moves substances AGAINST CONCENTRATION GRADIENT; uses membrane pumps (e.g., sodium-potassium pump) active transport
cell takes substance into itself by forming a vesicle from the cell membrane; "SWALLOWING" endocytosis
releases substances from cell exocytosis
material moves across cell using endocytosis + exocytosis transcytosis
life cycles of a cell from formation to division: 1. interphase 2. mitosis 3. cytokinesis
cell growth and preparation: G1: growth S: DNA replication G2: preparation for division Interphase
division of nucleus: 1. prophase 2. metaphase 3. anaphase 4. telophase Mitosis
division of cytoplasm: produces 2 genetically identical cells cytokinesis
programmed, normal cell death apoptosis
unplanned cell death due to injury or disease necrosis
INACTIVATION OF AN ENZYME (or any other protein) due to an irreversible change. DENATURATION
Cellular respiration of glucose occurs in 3 interconnected reaction sequences; 1. Glycolysis (anaerobic) 2ATP 2. Citric acid cycle (aerobic) 2ATP 3. Electron transport chain/oxidative phosphorylation (aerobic) 32 - 34 ATP
anabolism + catabolism = metabolism
_____ control all metabolic reactions Enzymes
___ is the main cellular source ATP
_____ converts glucose into ATP Cellular respiration
_____ follows: DNA -> mRNA -> protein Protein synthesis
genetic code read on mRNA; 3-based sequences of mRNA; most ___ code for one amino acid. ex: AUG codes for methionine codon
carries specific amino acids; has an anticodon that matches mRNA codon. tRNA
Created by: C to the C

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.
