| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| NUCLEUS | structure that contains DNA and controls the cells activities |
| CHLOROPLAST | found in plant cells, it captures energy from the sun and converts it to chemical energy |
| MITOCHONDRIA | converts food's chemical energy into compounds cells can use |
| LYSOSOME | filled with enzymes needed to break down certain materials in the cell |
| RIBOSOMES | site where proteins are assembled |
| GOLGI APPARATUS | modifies, sorts, and packages proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum |
| ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM | where lipids are assembled and some proteins are modified |
| CELL WALL | found only in plant cells, a rigid boundary giving support and strength |
| CELL MEMBRANE | made of lipids and proteins, regulates what enters and leaves the cell |
| PROKARYOTIC CELL | has no nucleus, is associated with living things, and is simple |
| EUKARYOTIC CELL | has a nucleus, is a single cell organism and is complex |
| PLANT CELL | a cell wall, central vacuoles, and chloroplast |
| ANIMAL CELL | has no cell wall, but has centrials which a plant cell doesn't have. |
| CELL THEORY | -all living things are composed of cells -cells are the basic unit of structure and function in living things -new cells are produced from existing cells |
| DIFFUSION | the movement of particles from an area where they are more concentrated to an area where the are less concentrated. |
| FACILITATED DIFFUSION | movement of specific molecules across cell membranes through protein channels |
| OSMOSIS | the diffusion of water through a permeable membrane |
| HYPERTONIC | when comparing two solutions, the solution with the greater concentration of solutes |
| HYPOTONIC | when comparing two solutions, the solution with the lesser concentration of solutes |
| ACTIVE TRANSPORT | energy-requiring process that moves material across a cell membrane against a concentrated difference |
| PASSIVE TRANSPORT | the movement of materials across a semi-permeable membrane, with the concentration gradient |
| EQUILIBRIUM | when the concentration of a solute is the same throughout a solution |
| ORGANELLE | specialized structure that performs important cell functions |
| MULTI CELLULAR ORGANISM | cells though out a organism can develop in different ways to perform different tasks |
| CELL MEMBRANE | made up of lipid bilayer and proteins, regulates what enters and leaves the cell. |
| FLUID MOSAIC MODEL | molecules that are so plentiful and different in the cell membrane that scientist gave this name |
| PROTEIN PUMP | protein channels and pumps that help to move material across the cell membrane |
