Endoplasmic reticulum | Eukaryotic cells contain an internal membrane sysem
🗑

Golgi apparatus | proteins produced in the rough ER move into this organelle
🗑
|

Lysosomes | digest, or break down, lipids, carbohydrates,, and proteins into small molecules that can be used by the rest of the cell
🗑
|

Mitochondria | organelles that convert the chemical energy stored in food into compounds that are more convenient for the cell to use
🗑
|

Cell membrane | a thin flexible barrier that surrounds all cells/regulates what enters and leaves the cell and also provides protection and support
🗑
|
||||
Cell wall | a strong supporting layer around the membrane of a cell
🗑
|
||||
lipid bilayer | double-layered sheet of lipids that gives cell membranes a flexible structure that forms a strong barrier between the cell and its surroundings
🗑
|

Concentration | the mass of solute in a given volume of solution, or mass/volume
🗑
|
||||
Diffusion | particles move from an area where they are more concentrated to an area where they are less concentrated
🗑
|

🗑
|
||||
Endocytosis | process of taking material into the cell by means of infoldings, or pockets, of the cell membrane
🗑
|
||||
Phagocytosis | extensions of cytoplasm surround a particle and package it within a food vacuole
🗑
|
||||
Pinocytosis | process by which a cell takes in liquid from the surrounding environment
🗑
|
||||
Exocytosis | the membrane of the vacuole surrounding the material fuses with the cell membrane, forcing the contents out of the cell
🗑
|
||||
Cell specialization | cells throughout an organism can develop in different ways to perform different task.
🗑
|
||||
Tissue | is a group of similar cells that perform a particular function
🗑
|
||||
Organ | many groups of tissues working together
🗑
|
||||
Organ system | a group of organs that work together to perform a specific function
🗑

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.
