What is it called when ridding the cell of material by discharging it from sacs (vesicles) at the cell surface? | Exocytosis |
What organelle does a plant cell have that helps maintain stability and rigidity? | Cell Wall |
Which structure permits the entry and exit of dissolved materials in an animal cell? | Cell Membrane |
What is the structure most closely associated with the destruction of worn out cell organelles called? | Lysosomes |
In which organelle would water and dissolved materials be stored? | Vesicles |
What organelle is most directly involved in cellular aerobic respiration? | Mitochondria |
Which two structures are only found in animal cells? | Vesicles and Centrioles |
What is responsible for carrying on photosynthesis within plants? | Chloroplasts |
What is responsible for protein synthesis in the cell? | Ribosomes |
What structure are used to modify and package secretions for exports from the cell? | Golgi Bodies |
What is an organelle which appears to play a role in animal cell division? | Centrioles |
Name 3 parts of the cell theory and the scientists who contributed | Robert Hooke- discovered and named the "cell"
(observed cork and decided they look like prison cells)
Robert Brown- discovered cell nucleus
Scleiden & Schwann- all plants and animals ared made out of cells |
What's the difference between passive and active transport? | Active requires energy and passive does not |
What process would happen to the molecules in a drop of ink dropped into a beaker of water? | Diffusion |
How would temperature affect diffusion? | Heat would speed it up |
Define hypotonic? | Lower concentration of solute on inside and less H20 on OUTSIDE |
Define hypertonic? | Higher concentration of solute on outside and more H20 on INSIDE |
Define isotonic? | Equal balance of solutes on each side of membrane |
Iodine was used to stain which organelle of potatoes in order to see them? | Leucoplast |
What is the End symbiotic Theory? | Mitochondria and chloroplasts were once free living cells |
What is the difference between a vesicle and a lysosome? | A vesicle is the storage unit for the cell of water, nutrients, and waste. A lysosome has digestive enzymes that merge with vesicles to digest food. |
What is the difference between a prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell? | Prokaryotic- an organelle that has no nuclear membrane, no organelles in the cytoplasm except ribosomes
Eukaryotic- an organelle with a structure of cytoplasm, a membrane-bound nucleus enclosing genetic material organized into chromosomes |
Why did we use dyes such as methylene blue and iodine to stain specimens in lab? | To identify different organelles |
What is the difference between magnification and resolution? | Magnification- (ex 100x) zooming in
Resolution- clarity |
What should be done when you can't focus an image under high power? | Go back to low power |
What does the coarse adjustment do? | Used to focus on scanning and low power *NEVER HIGH* |

What does the high power objective lens do? | Stronger magnification 40X |
What does the revolving nose piece do? | Holds and turns objective lens into viewing positions |
What does the fine adjustment do? | Sharpen image under low and HIGH power |
Which direction do molecules always move? | Down |
