midterm 1-3chapter

QuestionAnswer
Endoplasmic reticulum moves materials with cells
nucleus controls cell activities
cytoskeleton provides structure for animal cell
chromosomes carry the code that controls a cell
ribosome where proteins are made
cell membrane controls movement of materials into and out of cell
cytoplasm gel-like substance
mitochondria releases energy; powerhouse of cell
Golgi bodies packages & moves materials
cell wall provides shape & support for plant cells
vacuole stores water & dissolved materials
chloroplast contains chlorophyll, which traps light used in making food
lysosome recycles old cell parts
prokaryote primitive cell
organelle structures that perform a specific function in a cell.
prokaryotic cell prokaryotic cell
eukaryotic cell a cell with a nucleus
nucleus nucleus
vesicle transports materials throughout the cell
vacuole Fluid filled sac used for storage
Lysosome Breaks down worn out cellparts and defends the cell from invaders
Centriole Divides DNA during cell division
Cell wall Provides shape and support for the cell
Chloroplast Converts solar energy into chemical energy through photosynthesis
Ribosomes Link amino acids together to form proteins
Nucleous The storehouse for most of the genetic information or DNA
Virchou Proposed that all cells come from other cells
Schwann Concluded that all living things are made of cells
Schleiden Schleiden
Leeuwenhoek Made better lenses and observed cells in greater detail
Hooke Hooke
Part three of cell theory The cell is the most basic unit of life.
Part two of cell theory All existing cells are produced by other living cells
Part one of cell theory All organisms are made of cells
All organisms are made of cells Link amino acids together to form proteins
Link amino acids together to form proteins Cell wall and Chloroplasts
The structure of the cell membrane Bilayer phospholipids with proteins and carbs inbedded.
Phospholipid A molecule composed of a charged phosophate group, glycerol, and two fatty acid chains.
control group does not get experinmental variable.
classify organize and arrange data so that relationships can be seen.
verify repeating experiments to make sure the answer is correct
science man's observations of the physical world; must be measurable, observable, and repeatable.
observation information that a person has gained by using one or more of the five senses.
Two example of passive transport Diffusion and Osmosis
Diffusion and Osmosis The difference in the concentration of a substance from one location to another
How particles move in passive transport: From an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
Facilitated diffusion: Helps molecules that cannot directly cross the cell membrane.
Transport protein: Uses chemical energy to move larger substances across the cell membrane.
Isotonic: Equal concentration of solutes
Hypertonic Greater concentration of solutes
Hypotonic: Lower concentration of solutes
Endocytosis: The process of taking liquids or fairly large molecules into a cell by engulfing them in a membrane
Exocytosis: Releases substances out of a cell by fusion
Phagocytosis: Eats a whole cell.
Reason facilitated diffusion requires no energy from the cell: Reason facilitated diffusion requires no energy from the cell:
Laid the ground work for all biological research Laid the ground work for all biological research
reactant substance that is changed by a chemical reaction.
product substance forming by a chemical reaction
bond energy is the amount of energy that will break a bond between two atoms.
equilibrium equilibrium is reach when both the reactant and product are made at the same rate.
activation energy is the amount of energy that needs to be absorbed for a chemical reaction to start.
exothermic chemical reaction that requires a net release of energy
endothermic chemical reaction that requires a net input of energy
enzyme protein that catalyzes chemical reactions for organisms
Hooke first to identify and name cells
Leeuwenhoek first to observe and describe living cells
Schleiden observed that plants were made of cells
Schwann stated that all living things are made of cells
Virchow stated all existing cells came from other cells
atom The smallest basic unit of matter.
element one particular type of atom and can not be broken down into a simpler substance by ordinary chemical means
compound compound
ion an atom that has gained or lost one or more electrons
ionic bond ionic bond
covalent bond covalent bond
solution mixture that is consistent throughout
acid compound that donates a proton (H+) when dissolved in a solution
base compound that accepts a proton (H+) when dissolved in a solution
pH measurement of acidity
exothermic chemical reaction that requires a net release of energy
endothermic chemical reaction that requires a net input of energy
enzyme protein that catalyzes chemical reactions for organisms
chromatin DNA bound to protein and contained in the nucleus of the cell
ribosomes ribosomes
experimental experimental
survey a method of collecting data that determines how common or rare particular observations are
data recorded information obtained in an experiment or survey
hypothesis an educated guess
scientific method an organized way of arriving at a workable solution to a problem

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.
