---|---|---|---|---|---|
cell theory | states that all living things are made of one or more cells, the cell is the smallest unit of life, and all new cells come from preexisting cells
🗑
|
||||
macromolecule | form by joining many small molecules together
🗑
|
||||
nucleic acid | macromolecules that form when long chains of molecules called nucleotides join together
🗑
|
||||
protein | long chains of amino acid molecules
🗑
|
||||
lipid | large macromolecule that doesn't dissolve in water
🗑
|
||||
carbohydrate | one sugar molecule, two sugar molecules, or a long chain of sugar molecules
🗑
|
||||
cell membrane | flexible covering that protects the inside of a cell that protects the inside of a cell from the environment outside a cell
🗑
|
||||
cell wall | stiff structure outside the cell membrane
🗑
|
||||
cytoplasm | fluid inside a cell that contains salt and other molecules
🗑
|
||||
cytoskeleton | network of threadlike proteins that are joined together
🗑
|
||||
organelle | have specialized functions, and are surrounded by membranes
🗑
|
||||
nucleus | part of a eukaryotic cell that directs cell activities and contains genetic information stored in DNA
🗑
|
||||
chloroplast | membrane-bound organelle that use light energy and make food- a sugar called glucose- from water and carbon dioxide in a process known as photosynthesis
🗑
|
||||
passive transport | movement of substances through a cell membrane without using the cell's energy
🗑
|
||||
diffusion | movement of substances from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration
🗑
|
||||
osmosis | diffusion of water molecules only through a membrane
🗑
|
||||
facilitated diffusion | when molecules pass through a cell's membrane using special proteins called transport proteins
🗑
|
||||
active transport | movement of substances through a cell membrane only by using the cell's energy
🗑
|
||||
endocytosis | the process during which a cell takes in a substance surrounding it with the cell membrane
🗑
|
||||
exocytosis | process during which a cells vesicles release their contents outside the cell
🗑
|
||||
cellular respiration | series of chemical reactions that convert the energy in food molecules into a usable form of energy called ATP
🗑
|
||||
glycolysis | process done by which glucose a sugar is broken down into smaller molecules
🗑
|
||||
fermentation | reaction that eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells can use to obtain energy from foods when oxygen levels are low
🗑
|
||||
photosynthesis | series of chemical reactions that convert light energy, water, and CO2 into the food-energy molecule glucose and give off oxygen
🗑

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.
