Question
Answer
Most cells are composed of the following four elements   Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen  
🗑
Cells   are the building blocks of all living things  
🗑
Anatomy of the Cell   Nucleus, Cytoplasm, Plasma membrane  
🗑
The Nucleus is   Control center of the cell; contains genetic material, DNA  
🗑
The Nucleus anatomy   Nuclear envelope /membrane, Nucleolus & Chromatin  
🗑
Nuclear envelope   Barrier of the nucleus; Consists of a double membrane, contains nuclear pores that allow for exchange of material with the rest of the cell  
🗑
Nucleoli   Nucleus contains one or more nucleoli Sites of ribosome assembly Ribosomes migrate into the cytoplasm through nuclear pores  
🗑
Chromatin   Composed of DNA and protein Present when the cell is not dividing Scattered throughout the nucleus Condenses to form chromosomes when the cell divides  
🗑
Plasma Membrane   Barrier for cell contents Double phospholipid layer Hydrophilic heads Hydrophobic tails Also contains proteins, cholesterol, and glycoproteins  
🗑
Cytoplasm   Cytosol Organelles Inclusions  
🗑
Cytosol   Fluid that suspends other elements  
🗑
Organelles   Metabolic machinery of the cell “Little organs” that perform functions for the cell  
🗑
Inclusions   Chemical substances such as stored nutrients or cell products  
🗑
Cytoplasmic Organelles   Mitochondria,Ribosomes, Endoplasmic reticulum Smooth and Rough, Lysosomes,Peroxisomes, Centrioles, Golgi apparatus,  
🗑
Mitochondria   “Powerhouses” of the cell Change shape continuously Carry out reactions where oxygen is used to break down food Provides ATP for cellular energy  
🗑
Ribosomes   Made of protein and RNA Sites of protein synthesis Found at two locations Free in the cytoplasm As part of the rough endoplasmic reticulum  
🗑
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER)   Fluid-filled tubules or canals (cisterns) for carrying substances. Accounts for half of the cells membranes.  
🗑
Two types of ER   Rough endoplasmic reticulum Smooth endoplasmic reticulum  
🗑
Rough endoplasmic reticulum   Studded with ribosomes Synthesizes and exports protein  
🗑
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum   metabolizes lipid, cholesterol and detoxification of drugs and pesticides  
🗑
Lysosomes   Contain enzymes produced by ribosomes Packaged by the Golgi apparatus Digest worn-out or non usable materials within the cell  
🗑
Peroxisomes   Membranous sacs of oxidase enzymes Detoxify harmful substances such as alcohol and formaldehyde Break down free radicals (highly reactive chemicals) Replicate by pinching in half  
🗑
Centrioles   Rod-shaped bodies made of microtubules Direct the formation of mitotic spindle during cell division  
🗑
Golgi apparatus   Modifies and packages proteins Produces different types of packages Secretory vesicles Cell membrane components Lysosomes  
🗑
Golgi vesicle   containing membrane components fuses with the plasma membrane  
🗑
Lysosome fuses   with ingested substances  
🗑
Golgi vesicle containing digestive enzymes becomes a   lysosome  
🗑
Cellular Projections:Not found in all cells   Cilia, Flagella, Microvilli  
🗑
Cilia   move materials across the cell surface Located in the respiratory system to move mucus  
🗑
Flagella   propel the cell The only flagellated cell in the human body is sperm  
🗑
Microvilli   are tiny, fingerlike extensions of the plasma membrane Increase surface area for absorption  
🗑
Epithelial cells   Cells that cover and line body organs  
🗑
Epithelial cells anatomy   Nucleus Intermediate filaments  
🗑
Skeletal muscle cell anatomy   Nuclei Smooth muscle cells  
🗑
Skeletal muscle cell   Cells that move organs and body parts  
🗑
Fat cell anatomy   Lipid droplet Nucleus  
🗑
Fat cell   Cell that stores nutrients  
🗑
Macrophage   Phagocyte cell extends long psedopods to crawl tissue to reach infection sites. the many lysosome within the cell digest the infectious microorganisms it takes up  
🗑
Macrophage   Cell that fights disease  
🗑
Nerve cell anatomy   Rough ER, Nucleus  
🗑
Nerve cell   Cell that gathers information and controls body functions  
🗑
neuroglia    
🗑
Cell of reproduction   Sperm  
🗑
Sperm   Nucleus, Flagellum  
🗑
Solution   homogeneous mixture of two or more components  
🗑
Solvent   dissolving medium; typically water in the bod  
🗑
Intracellular fluid   nucleoplasm and cytosol  
🗑
Interstitial fluid   fluid on the exterior of the cell  
🗑
Selective Permeability   The plasma membrane allows some materials to pass while excluding others. This permeability influences movement both into and out of the cell.  
🗑
Membrane Transport: Two basic methods of transport   Passive processes & Active processes  
🗑
Passive processes   No energy is required  
🗑
Active processes   Cell must provide metabolic energy (ATP)  
🗑
Diffusion   Particles tend to distribute themselves evenly within a solution Movement is from high concentration to low concentration, or down a concentration gradient  
🗑
Passive Processes Types of diffusion   Simple diffusion, Osmosis, Facilitated diffusion, Passive Processes, Active Processes,  
🗑
Simple diffusion   An unassisted process Solutes are lipid-soluble materials or small enough to pass through membrane pores  
🗑
Osmosis   simple diffusion of water Highly polar water molecules easily cross the plasma membrane through aquaporins  
🗑
Facilitated diffusion   Substances require a protein carrier for passive transport Transports lipid-insoluble and large substances  
🗑
Passive Processes   Water and solutes are forced through a membrane by fluid, or hydrostatic pressure A pressure gradient must exist Solute-containing fluid is pushed from a high-pressure area to a lower pressure area  
🗑
Active Processes: Substances are transported that are unable to pass by diffusion   Substances may be too lg, Substances may not be able to dissolve in the fat core of the membrane, Substances may have to move against a concentration gradient  
🗑
Active Processes, Two common forms of active transport   Active transport (solute pumping) Vesicular transport Exocytosis Endocytosis Phagocytosis Pinocytosis  
🗑
Active Processes   ATP is used for transport  
🗑
Epithelium that consist of multiple layers of a cell   Stratified  
🗑
The organelle that consist enzymes produced by ribosomes and packaged by the golgi apparatus is the   Lysosomes  
🗑
the portion of the cells life cycle that does not involve cell division is known as   Interphase  
🗑
Which type of tissue conducts electrochemical impulses   Nervous Tissue  
🗑
the molecule that carries an amino acid to the ribosome for incorporation into a protein is   Transfer RNA (tRNA)  
🗑
Fat is best described as   Adipose tissue  
🗑
Adenine bonds with   Thymine  
🗑
Glands, such as the thyroid, that secrete their products directly into the blood rather than through ducts are classified as   Endocrine  
🗑
Guanine bonds with   Cytosine  
🗑
The type of muscle found in the walls of hollow organs, such as the stomach and the walls of blood vessels is   Smooth mucles  
🗑
A single layer of flatten cell would best be described as   Simple Squamous  
🗑
Type of active process in which the cell secrets vesicles   Exocytosis  
🗑
Organelle that captures energy to produce ATP   MItochondria  
🗑
The type of muscle found in the heart movement is involuntary and cells possess stiations   Cardiac  
🗑
Organelle that package substances for release from cell   Golgi apparatus  
🗑
Aide Protein Synthesis   Ribosomes  
🗑
Type of passive process in which water is moved through aquapororins   Osmosis  
🗑
list the 4 major tissue types   Epithelial, Connective, Muscle and Nervous tissue  
🗑
the phases of Mitosis in order   Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase and Telophase  
🗑
Rough ER   Has all essential material for building in the cell and assembles it it is considered the factory of the cell  
🗑
Cytoskeleton   elaborated network of protein structures extends throughout the cytoplasm; acts like bones and muscle for cell shape and support of organelles  
🗑
