| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| membrane pumps | protein molecules embedded in the cell membrane that transport molecules across the cell membrane against the concentration gradient. |
| Endocytosis | the process in which cells bring the process in which cells bring large molecules inside by surrounding them with the cell membrane and forming vesicles. |
| Exocytosis | the process in which cells package materials into vesicles using the Golgi apparatus, and expel the vesicles from the cell. |
| diffusion | involves the movement of material across the cell membrane from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. |
| facilitated diffusion | a type of diffusion that uses special transport proteins to transfer larger molecules across cell membranes. |
| osmosis | a type of diffusion that specifically involves the movement of water. |
| filtration | involves the movement of water and solute molecules across the cell membrane due to hydrostatic pressure. |
| osmosis | the movement of water molecules across the cell membrane. Water moves down a concentration gradient from areas of high water concentration to areas of low water concentration. |
| cells consist of smaller pieces called.. | organelles |
| give examples of organelles | Cell membrane, cell wall, cytoplasm, vacuole, mitochondrion, endoplasmic reticulum, nucleus and chloroplast |
| cytoplasm | a suspension fluid that houses the other organelles |
| cell membrane or can also be called? | plasma membrane |
| plasma membrane | acts as a boundary layer around the cytoplasm thus separating cells from their outside environments |
| the cell wall is a? | vacuole |
| what does a vacuole do? | stores water and ingested food in a fluid sack |
| what is another membrane organelle | lysosomes |
| what do lysosomes contain? | enzymes specialized to break down ingested materials, secretions, and wastes. |
| were do waste go threw? | golgi apparatus |
| the nucleus is like the... | brain |
| chromatin is... | composed for long, thin strands of DNA which contains “instructions” that control cell metabolism and heredity |
| Ribosomes | are RNA and protein complexes that are found in all cells |
| mitochondria acts.. | like a stomach for the cell |
| chloroplast are... | the food producers in a plant cell |
| The endoplasmic reticulum ________ chemicals ______ and within cells. | The endoplasmic reticulum transports chemicals between and within cells. |
| Do Plant cells and animal cells contain the same cellular structures? | No, Plant cells and animal cells contain different cellular structures |
