Question
Answer
Cytology   study of cells  
🗑
Cell membrane   membrane that surround cell - holds cell together allows substances to cross or not - semipermeable  
🗑
Lipid soluble substances   substances that move across cell membrane by dissolving in the lipid portion of the cell membrane - oxygen and carbon dioxide  
🗑
Water soluble substances   cross cell membrane through pores  
🗑
Drugs are classified as ______ soluble or _______ soluble. Drug ______ determines the drugs __________ through the body   Lipid-soluble; water-soluble; solubility; distribution  
🗑
Nucleus of cell   control center  
🗑
Mitochondria   ATP production; power plant of cell  
🗑
Endoplasmic reticulum - rough   synthesizes protein  
🗑
Golgi Apparatus   finishes and packages protein for export  
🗑
4 passive transport mechanisms that move substances across the cell membrane   diffusion; facilitated diffusion; osmosis; filtration  
🗑
Diffusion   movement of substance from higher concentration to lower - tablet of red dye in water; skunk;  
🗑
Transport mechanism that moves oxygen into blood and carbon dioxide out   diffusion - oxygen diffuses from alveolus in lung into blood; carbon dioxide from blood to lung  
🗑
Facilitated diffusion   substance is helped across the membrane by a molecule within the membrane; transport of glucose  
🗑
Osmosis   special case of diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane which allows the passage of some substances;  
🗑
During osmosis water will move from area where concentration is higher (A) to lower (B) as a result   volume in A increases; concentrations in both changes  
🗑
Edema   process of accumulation of water in tissue spaces via osmosis - swelling  
🗑
Tonicity   ability of a solution to affect the volume and pressure within a cell  
🗑
Tonicity - Isotonic solution   solution is same concentration as the cell; RBC in isotonic solution neither gains nor loses water; used for IV  
🗑
Tonicity - Hypotonic Solution   water with no solute; moves water into cell by osmosis: from more water to less; causes RBC to burst = hemolysis  
🗑
Tonicity - Hypertonic Solutions   RBC in salt water shrinks or crenates  
🗑
Filtration   passive transport with pressure; syringe; movement across capillaries with blood pressure  
🗑
Active Transport Pumps   requires energy (ATM)  
🗑
Endocytosis   active transport mechanism that involves intake of food or liquid. particle too large to pass through membrane via diffusion; particle is surrounded by cell and engulfed  
🗑
Phagocytosis   endocytosis that involves a solid particle - white blood cells phagocytose bacteria  
🗑
Pinocytosis   ell ingests a water droplet  
🗑
Exocytosis   moves substances out of cell - pancreas makes protein and expels it  
🗑
CELL CYCLE    
🗑
Interphase - 3 phases   Gap phase G1-cell carries on normal activities; Phase S-cell duplicates chromosomes; Second Gap phase G2-synthesizes enzyme and other proteins needed for mitotic phase-M phase  
🗑
Mitosis   M phase - cell divides into 2 identical cells  
🗑
Stages of Mitosis   Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase (Play Me A Tune)  
🗑
Cancer drugs are often described by the_____ they attack   cell cycle stage  
🗑
Characteristics of cancer cells are _____ and _____   they can't stop dividing and they are poorly differentiated  
🗑
Stem Cells   relatively undifferentiated cells whose function is to produce more unspecialized cells; when divides one becomes specialized and one prepares to make more stem cells  
🗑
Apoptosis   cell death or suicide; body rids old, unnecessary or unhealthy cells; produces a million cells per second  
🗑
CELL PARTS    
🗑
PASSIVE TRANSPORT MECHANISMS    
🗑
ACTIVE TRANSPORT MECHANISMS    
🗑
CELL CYCLE    
🗑
   
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
