Question | Answer |
three main parts of the cell | plasma membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus |
parts of cell- "little organ" like structure | organelle |
forms outer boundry of cell, thin two layered membrane of phospholids containing proteins,
is selectively permeable
seperates the inside form the outside | plasma membrane |
materials that lie within the boundary of the cell(the membrane that surrounds the cell) | cytoplasm |
may attach to rough ER or lie free in cytoplasm
often Called the "PROTEIN FACTOR" | Ribsomes |
composed of inner and outer membranes, energy releasing chemical reactions
Often called POWER Plants of the Cell
Contain one DNA molecule | mitochondria |
the chemical processing and packing center | golgi apparatus |
serves as the centers for the cellular digestion | lysosomes |
fine hairlike extensions found on free or exposed surfaces of some cells | cilia |
"tails" of sperm cells are the only example of flagella in humans | flagella |
serves as the "brain" for the control of the cell's metabolic actvities and cell division.
46 chromosomes contain DNA, which contains the genetic code. | nucleus |
does not require energy from the cell | passive transport |
permits a cell to engulf foreign material | phago |
used to incorporated fluids or dissolved substances. | pino |
(requires cell energy in the form of ATP) | active transport |
transport of substances into and out of the cell. retains the cytoplasm | cell membrane |
regulates transport of substances into and out of the nucleus | nuclear membrane |
a clear semifluid medium that fils the spaces around the chromatin and the nucleoli | nucleoplasm |
functions as a reservoir for RNA | nucleolus |
provides passage s through which transport of substances occurs in cytoplasm | endoplasmic reticulum(ER) |
enzymes oxidizes cell substances | peroxisome |
contains two centroiles that are functional during animal cell division(rod shaped organelles) | centrosome and centrioles |
Interphase, prophase,metaphase,anaphase and telophase are 5 stages of what? | mitosis |
DNA Replicate | interphase |
first stage- chromosomes(pairs of linked chromatids)appear
centroiles move away from nucleus | prophase |
second stage of mitosis | metaphase |
third phase- centromeres break apart | anaphase |
fourth stage- cell division is completed
cytoplasm is divided (cytokinesis) | telophase |
forms internal framework | cytoskeleton |
meaning "colored substance"
contains the genetic code | chromatin |
codes that are stored into individual units | chromosomes |
membranous sacs | vacuoles |
the nucleus is surrounded by a membrane called | nuclear envelope |
possessing a true nucleus | eukaryotic |
lacking a true nucleus | prokaryotic |
amino acids are attached together into chains called | peptides |
ribonucleic acid | RNA |
deoxyribonucleic acid | DNA |
adenosine triphosphate | ATP |
