QuestionAnswer
prokaryote vs. eukaryote cells pro- simple structure, ex. bacteria + archaea euk- complex structure wt membrane bound organelle, ex animals/plants
both types of cells contain genetic material such as _____, ______, and _______ ribosomes, cytosol, and plasma membrane
where is DNA located in prokaryote cells? the nucleoid region; the center of the cell
what are plasmids? extra genetic material outside of the chromosome
where is DNA located in eukaryotic cells? in linear chromosomes that are contained in the membrane-bound nucleus
function of ribosomes + made of what? + in which cells? - protein synthesis - made of proteins + rRNA - in both cells
ribosomes assemble _____ and turn them into _______ chains - amino acids - polypeptide
where are ribosomes found where? in rough endoplasmic reticulum
function of rough ER? has ribosomes bound to its membrane and makes protein (only in eukaryotic cells)
function of smooth ER? (does *not have ribosomes) - synthesizes lipids + detoxifies the cell from harmful substances (only in eukaryotic cells)
function of golgi body + contains what? + in which cells? - controls, modifies, packages proteins for transport - contains enzymes - both cells
after proteins are made by _____ in the rough er, they are sent to the _____ to be packaged and finished, then they are sent throughout the cell - ribosomes - golgi body
function of lysosomes + contains what? + in which cells? - sacs that help digest, break down parts, do apoptosis, and destroy bacteria/viruses - hydrolytic enzymes - animal cells only
function of vacuole + contains what? + in which cells? - stores food/water, regulates water, stores waste until it can be removed - provide plant wt turgor pressure + support - in both cells
function of mitochondria makes energy/ATP for cell
what is the matrix? an enzyme fluid in the the center of the mitochondria
what is the purpose of the mitochondria's double membrane structure? double membrane allows a proton gradient which is necessary for ATP production
the folds on the inner membrane of the mitochondria _____ the surface area and therefore allow for _______ - increase - energy production during cellular respiration
function of chloroplasts + contains what? + in which cells? - photosynthesis - in plant cells only (+some algae)
what is the stroma? liquid inside the chloroplast that surrounds the grana
what are thylakoids? membrane sacs in the chloroplasts that function in light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis (chloroplast is double membraned)
what is the centrosome? helps microtubules assemble into spindle fibers for cell division - in animal cells only
what is peroxisome? - in both cells - oxidizes molecules + breaks down toxins
what are cytoskeleton fibers? give cells their shape + help move things in cell
what are amyloplasts? - starch molecules that store excess glucose produced by photosynthesis - found in starchy veggies (potatoes)
endosymbiosis hypothesis believes that smaller membrane-bound prokaryotes were _____ by larger prokaryotes in order to evolve into ______ such as the mitochondria + chloroplasts - engulfed/absorbed - membrane -bound organelles
the similarities between which 2 organelles help prove endosymbiosis hypothesis? chloroplasts + mitochondria - their circular DNA is similar to prokaryotic DNA, their ribosomes are similar to prokaryotic ribosomes, + they reproduce wt binary fission
what's the purpose of compartmentalization? the cells separate into diff metabolic processes in order to minimize enzymes from cross-reacting which would make the cell's process less efficient + difficult to regulate
what is the relationship between a cell's surface area and its efficiency in completing tasks? the larger the cell's surface area, the more efficient it is
larger cells have ____ (high/low) surface area so are _____ (more/less) efficient. so it is more beneficial for cells to be ______ - low - less - small
what is one way to increase the surface area to volume ratio? by folding membranes (ex. double membraned mitochondria which folds to create bigger surface area)
what is the relationship between radius and surface area? as ratio increases, surface area decreases
purpose of plasma membrane? - allows cells to maintain internal environment wt its selective permeability (only allows some materials to cross membrane)
the plasma membrane is made of a ______ of phospholipids which has a ______ (hydrophillic/hydrophobic) head, and (hydrophillic/hydrophobic) _______ tails - bilayer - hydrophilic head - hydrophobic tails
what must larger polar molecules use in order to cross across cell membrane? membrane channels or transport proteins
what are aquaporins? allow for passage of water in and out of cell
which cells have a cell wall outside its cell membrane? plant/prokaryotic cells
high to low concentration is ________ and it moves molecules _____ the concentration gradient - passive transport - down
is diffusion passive or active? passive (mvmt down concentration gradient)
facilitated diffusion passive transport that uses membrane protein
low to high concentration is _______ and it moves molecules _____ the concentration gradient - active transport - against
Na+ and K+ pump is active or passive transportation? explain - active - requires ATP to pump Na (sodium) from low to high areas + K (potassium) from low to high areas
endo/exocytosis are examples of passive or actiive transport? - active transport
endocytosis take in water + macromolcules by folding them into vesicles
exocytosis molecules that need to be removed (exitted) fuse with plasma membrane in order to be expelled from the cell
a ____ solution, has a lower concentration of solute hypotonic (high concentration enters its low concentration and makes it expand)
a ______ solution, has a higher concentration of solute hypertonic (high concentration inside leaves towards lower concentration making it shrink)
what is an isotonic solution? has the same concentration of solute as the concentration of another solute
the more water there is in a solution, the _______ (higher/lower) the water potential will be higher
water flows from areas of _____ water potential to _______ water potential high water potential to low water potential
what is the equation to solve water potential? W.P = trident S + trident P
what is osmolarity? the total concentration of solutes in a solution
if theres too much water in a cell, that could increase the pressure potential and cause cell to burst
what is the purpose of the contractile vacuole? stores excess water entering the cell and pumps out of cell
is osmosis passive or actice? passive
water moves from ____ solute to _____ solute less to more solutek
i= C= R= T= i= # of particles C= molar concentration R= (0.081) T= temp (273 +C)
water moves from _____ to _____ pressure high to low pressure
facilitated diffusion use transport proteins to help substances cross such as aquaphorins which ______ and glucose transport proteins which ____ aquaphorins: channel protein that allows water to go thru glucoslkdfjkfj carrier protein
what is cotransport membrane proteins enable downhill diffusion of solute to drive uphill transport of another
osmoregulation controls solute + water balance
phagocytosis cellular eating/elgulfing
pinocytosis cellular drinking
receptor mediated endocytosis ligands bind to receptors on cells surface
