QuestionAnswer
Double-layered sheet that forms the core of nearly all cell membranes Lipid Bilayer
Internal membrane system in cells in which lipid components of the cell membrane are assembled and some proteins are modified Endoplasmic Reticulum
Movement of specific molecules across cell membranes through protein channels Facilitated Diffusion
Stack of membranes int he cell that modifies, sorts, and packages proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum Golgi Apparatus
Process by which a cell releases large amounts of material Exocytosis
Diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane Osmosis
process by which molecules tend to move from an area where they are more concentrated to an area where they are less concentrated Diffusion
Material inside the cell membrane--not including the nucleus Cytoplasm
Threadlike structure within the nucleus containing the genetic information that is passed from one generation of cells to the next Chromozone
Cell organelle that stores materials such as water, salts, proteins, and carbohydrates Vacuole
when the concentration of two solutions is the same. Isotonic
The center of the atom which contains the protons and neutrons; in cells, structure that contains the cell's genetic material (DNA) and controls the cell's activities Nucleus
Network of protein filaments within some cells that helps the cell maintain its shape and is involved in many forms of cellmovement Cytoskeleton
When comparing two solutions, the solution with lesser concentration of solutes and a greater concentration of water Hypotonic
process by which a cell takes material into the cell by infolding of the cell membrane Endocytosis
thin, flexible barrier around a cell; regulates what entires and leaves the cell Cell Membrane
Basic unit of all forms of life Cell
When the concentration of a solute is the same throughout a solution Equilibrium
Organism whose cells contain nuclei Eukaryote
granular material visible within the nucleus; consists of DNA tightly coiled around proteins Chromatin
energy-requiring process that moves material across a cell membrane against a concentration difference Active Transport
Specialized structure that preforms important cellular functions within a eukaryotic cell Organelle
the process in which cells develop in different ways to preform different tasks Cell Specialization
small particle in the cell on which proteins are assembled; made of RNA and protein Ribosome
small, dense regions within most nuclei in which the assembly or proteins Nucleolus
when comparing two solutions, the solution with greater solution of solutes and the lesser concentration of water Hypertonic
Cell organelle that converts the chemical energy stored in food into compounds that are more convenient for the cell to use Mitochondrion
Organelle found in cells of plants and some other organisms that captures the energy from sunlight and converts it into chemical energy Chloroplast
one of two tiny structures located in the cytoplasm of animal cells near the nuclear envelope Centrioles
Cell organelle filled with enzymes needed to break down certain materials in the cell Lysosome
strong supporting layer around the cell membrane in plants algae and some bacteria cell wall

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.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
