Nucleotide(Monomer of Nucleic Acids)
Structure of Nucleotide
DNA base pairs
cell membrane controls what enters and leaves the cell
ribosomes makes proteins
cytoplasm jelly- like fluid in which organelles are found and is the site of many chemical reactions
nucleus controls cells activities, contains DNA, is where RNA is made
Mitochondria turn food into energy, the site of cellular respiration
chloroplasts contains chlorophyll and uses the suns energy to make food, the site of photosynthesis
Golgi body packages and sends proteins out of the cell
lysosome contain digestive enzymes and arre sometimes called suicide sacs
vacuole storage sacs. food, water, chemicals or waste
cell wall gives support to plant cells
cilia and flagella microtubular protein strands used for movement
vesicle membrane bound sacs that transports materials between organelles
centriole organizes spindle fibers in animal cells during cell division
cytoskeleton a network of constantly changing proteins that supports and shapes the cell.
animal cells eukaryotic, a cell membrane, mitochondria, does cellular respiration, multiple small vacuoles
plant cells eukaryotic, cell membrane, cell wall, mitochondria, chloropladts, cellular respiration, photosynthesis, single large vacuole
sex cells sperm and egg
gamete a cell having haploid number of chromosomes
haploid cell 1 of each type of chromosome
diploid cell 2 of each type of chromosome
autosome dont determine gender 1-22 out of 23
sex chromosome x and y determine gender
meiosis diploid cells undergo 2 divisions result in 4 haploid gametes
mitosis when the nucleus divides
chlorophyll any green pigments that are found in the chloroplasts of plants
facilitated diffusion the process of diffusing or the condition of being diffused
active transport requires energy input from a cell and enables a cell to move a substance against its concentration gradient going through protein pumps
endosymbiosis relationship which one organisms lives within the body of another
phospholipid has a polar head and nonpolar tails
hydrophilic is a polar head of a phospholipid and its polar
hydrophobic a non polar tails and its non polar
passive transport does not use energy and makes materials with concentration gradient(high to low)
fluid mosaic model amorphous substance that move freely past one another to assume the shape of the container and its either a liquid or gas
endocytosis the process of cellular ingestion by plasma membrane that folds inward to bring substances into the cell
exocytosis A process of cellular secretion or excretion in which substances contained in vesicles are discharged from the cell by fusion of the vesicular membrane with the outer 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.

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