---|---|---|---|---|---|
Diffusion | The process by which molecules move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.
🗑
|
||||
Osmosis | is the diffusion of water molecules through a selectively permeable membrane. (cell membrane
🗑
|
||||
photosynthesis | The process by which a cell captures energy in sunlight and uses it to make food is called
🗑
|
||||
Autotrophs | Organisms that manufacture their own food by Photosynthesis. (plants)
🗑
|
||||
heterotrophs | Organisms that cannot make its own food, animals are called
🗑
|
||||
Respiration | is the process by which cells obtain energy from glucose (sugar)
🗑
|
||||
Mitochondria | powerhouses of cell.
🗑
|
||||
cell cycle | The regular sequence of growth and division that cells undergo is known as the
🗑
|
||||
daughter cells | During the cell cycle, a cell grows, prepares for division and divides into two new cells
🗑
|
||||
Prophase | Chromatin in the nucleus condenses to form chromosomes
Pairs of centrioles move to opposite sides of the nucleus
Spindle fibers form a bridge between the ends of the cell
The nuclear envelope breaks down
🗑
|
||||
Metaphase | The chromosomes line up across the center of the spindle fiber apparatus
Each chromosome attaches to the spindle fiber at its centromere.
🗑
|
||||
Anaphase | The centromeres split
The two chromatids separate, and each chromatid becomes a new chromosome.
The new chromosomes move to opposite ends of the cell.
The cell stretches out as the opposite ends are pushed apart.
🗑
|
||||
Telophase | The chromosomes begin to stretch out and lose their rod like appearance.
A new nuclear envelope forms around each region of chromosomes.
🗑
|
||||
Cytokinesis | Cell membrane pinches around the middle of the cell
The cell splits in two
Each daughter cell ends up with an identical set of chromosomes and about half the organelles
🗑
|
||||
prokaryotes | (bacteria) is one, circular chromosome attached to the inside of the cell membrane
🗑
|
||||
chromatids | Duplicated chromosomes are called
🗑
|
||||
Cell Cycle | G1 - primary growth phase
S – synthesis; DNA replicated
G2 - secondary growth phase
collectively these 3 stages are called interphase
M - mitosis
C - cytokinesis
🗑
|
||||
eukaryotic | cells store genetic information in chromosomes
Most eukaryotes have between 10 and 50 chromosomes in their body cells
Human body cells have 46 chromosomes or 23 identical pairs
🗑

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.
