Question
Answer
show basic unit of life  
🗑
show fundamental concept of Biology: -all living things are composed of cells -Cells are the basic unit of structure and function in living things -New cells are produced from existing cells  
🗑
show large membrane; enclosed structure that contains the cell's DNA; controls cell activity; the "brain"  
🗑
show cells that contain nuclei; contain a nucleus in which their genetic material is separated from the rest of the cell  
🗑
show cells that do not contain nuclei; have genetic material that is not contained in a nucleus  
🗑
Organelles   show
🗑
show portion of the cell outside of the nucleus  
🗑
show contains nearly all the cell's DNA and coded instructions for making proteins- controls everything that goes on in the cell; the "brain"  
🗑
show surrounds nucleus; composed of 2 membranes; allows materials to move into and out of the nucleus  
🗑
show in the nucleus, consists of DNA  
🗑
show thread-like structures; contain the genetic information that is passed from one generation of cells to the next  
🗑
Nucleolus   show
🗑
Ribosomes   show
🗑
show site where lipid components of the cell membrane are assembled, along with proteins and other materials that are exported from the cell  
🗑
show ribosomes are found on the surface; newly made proteins leave these ribosomes and are inserted into the rough ER where they may be chemically modified  
🗑
Smooth ER   show
🗑
show modify/sort/package proteins from ER and send to final destination  
🗑
show small organelles filled with enzymes; break down cell's waste  
🗑
show store materials (water, salts, proteins, and carbohydrates)  
🗑
Central Vacuole   show
🗑
show in Eukaryotes and plants; organelles that convert the chemical energy stored in food compounds that are more convenient for the cell to use; 2 membranes; inherited from egg cells; carried DNA  
🗑
Chloroplasts   show
🗑
Cytoskeleton   show
🗑
Microtubules   show
🗑
Centricoles   show
🗑
Cilia   show
🗑
show cell movement  
🗑
show long, thin fibers; movement and support of cell; concentrated just beneath cell membrane  
🗑
show states that mitochondria and chloroplasts carry their own DNA; they come from prokaryotes; took millions of years to evolve  
🗑
Cell Membrane   show
🗑
show help particles go in and out of the cell  
🗑
show molecules move form area of high concentration to area of low concentration; passive transport  
🗑
show passive transport; diffusion across membrane using transport proteins; selectively permeable; needed if particle is too large or is charged  
🗑
Cell Wall   show
🗑
Lipid Bilayer   show
🗑
show the mass of solute in a given volume of solution (or mass/volume)  
🗑
show concentration of a solute i the same throughout a system  
🗑
Osmosis   show
🗑
show "same strength"  
🗑
show "above strength"  
🗑
show "below strength"  
🗑
Passive Transport   show
🗑
Active Transport   show
🗑
show process of taking material into the cell by means of folding the cell membrane; stored in vacuole in cytoplasm  
🗑
show extensions of cytoplasm surround particle and package it within a food vacuole  
🗑
Pinocytosis   show
🗑
show membrane of the vacuole surrounding the material fuses with the cell membrane, forcing the contents out of the cell (ex-removal of water)  
🗑
Cell Specialization   show
🗑
show group of similar cells grouped together to form a specific function  
🗑
show group of tissues grouped together to perform a specific function  
🗑
show group of organs grouped 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.
