Cell Study Card

QuestionAnswer
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

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.
