| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What organelle makes proteins? | ribosomes |
| Is facilitated diffusion passive transport or active transport? | passive |
| Do prokaryotic cells have ribosomes? | yes |
| What type of transport through the cell membrane requires energy? | active |
| Name 2 things prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells have in comman | both have DNA, cytoplasm, ribosomes, cell membrane |
| Will a plant cell burst when placed in hypotonic solution? | No. The cell wall will protect it. |
| What does isotonic mean? | equal amount of solutes. |
| What two organelles in a plant have to do with energy? | mitochondria and chloroplasts |
| Name 3 organelles that are involved in producing or processing proteins. | Rough ER, Golgi, ribosomes, nucleus |
| Are plant cells eukaryotic or prokaryotic? | eukaryotic |
| What does the word hypertonic mean? | A higher level of solutes |
| Why do phospholipids form a bilayer? | The heads are hydrophilic and the tails are hydrophobic. |
| Give two reasons cells must be small. | DNA overload and surface area/volume ratio. |
| Where is DNA found in eukaryotic cells? | nucleus |
| What do lysosomes do? | break down waste |
| Will a cell in a hypertonic solution swell or shrink? | shrink |
| What is one reactant of photosynthesis? | water, carbon dioxide. |
| What is one product of photosynthesis? | glucose, oxygen |
| Where does photosyntesis take place? | chloroplast |
| Do plants undergo cellular respiration? | yes |
| Where does cellular respiration take place in eukaryotic cells? | mitochondria |
| Which organelle is an extension of the nuclear envolope? | endoplasmic reticulum |
| What two forms of energy are involved in photosynthesis? | light energy and chemical energy |
| What is one reactant of cellular respiration? | glucose, oxygen |
| What is one product of cellular respiration? | water, carbon dioxide, ATP |
| Why are plant green? | red and blue light is absorbed, green light is reflected |
| Why do we breathe oxygen? | We need it for cellular respiration |
| What are the four phases of the cell cycle? | G1, S, G2, M |
| What happens during the S phase of the cell cycle. | DDNA makes a copy of itself (replicates) |
| What happens when the cell cycle is not regulated? | cancer |
| Do plants undergo cellular respiration? | yes |
| Do animals undergo photosynthesis? | no |
| What type of cell has centrioles? | animal cells |
| Give an example of prokaryotic cell. | bacteria |
| Checkpoint #1 is between which two phases of the cell cycle? | G1 and S |
| What happens during mitosis? | The nucleus divides to create two identical cells |
| What happens during sytokinesis? | the cytoplasm divides |
| What phase of the cell cycle comes after the M phase? | G1 |
| Which macromolecule make up the most of the cell membrane? | lipids |
| What word means "diffusion of water"? | osmosis |
| What is the difference between facilitated diffusion and transport that requires a protein pump? | facilitated diffusion does not use energy, protein pump does |
| Define diffusion | The movement of the molecules from higher concentration to a lower concentration |
| Are ribosomes membrane-bound organelles? | no |
| Name 2 organelles that have double membranes. | mitochondria, chlorolasts, nucleus (nuclear envolope) |
| Name 2 structures found in animals cells but not in plant cells. | lysosomes and centrioles |
| Does exocytosis require energy? | yes |
| What are 3 examples of active transport? | protein pump, exocytosis, endocytosis |
| What structure in the cell helps maintain homeostasis in the cell? | cell membrane |
