Question | Answer |
What is it called when a cell moves particles using energy? | active transport |
What is the end result of mitosis and cytokinesis? | 2 identical cells |
What happens when a cell cannot get enough oxygen for cellular respiration ? | fermentation |
What process allows materials to move in and out of cells? | diffusion |
Why is osmosis important for cells? | cells have fluid of mostly water and osmosis allows water to flow into a cell |
What is it called when a particle moves from an area of high concentration to low concentration? | passive transport |
What is endocytosis? (remember endo) | a cell absorbing a particle INTO the cell |
What is exocytosis? (remember exo) | a cell getting rid of a large particle (getting it OUT of the cell) |
What is photosynthesis? | process where plants use carbon dioxide, sunlight and water to make glucose and oxygen |
When does a cell not need energy? | diffusion |
What is osmosis? | water diffusing either into or out of a cell |
What do we call the process in which a cell goes through? | the cell cycle |
Which stage are the chromosomes copied? | interphase |
which stage do the chromatids separate and move the opposite ends of the cell? | anaphase |
What are the 4 stages of cell division called? | mitosis |
Which stage to the chromosomes align at the cell's equator? | metaphase |
What is the division of cytoplasm in the cell cycle called? | cytokinesis (we now have 2 identical cells and start the cycle over again) |
Name the stages of the cell cycle in order? | Interphase, prophase, metaphase
anaphase, telophase, cytokinesis |
