cell transport, photosynthesis, & respiration

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Vocabulary
Definitions
Selectively (semi-) permeable   Certain things can pass through but others cannot  
🗑
pores   tiny holes  
🗑
passive transport   movement of materials in or out of the cell without the need for energy  
🗑
diffusion   the process by which molocules move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration  
🗑
osmosis   the diffusion of water molocules across a cell membrane from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration  
🗑
equilibrium   a state of balance  
🗑
homeostasis   the balence of important materials inside and outside  
🗑
active transport   the movement of larger molocules across the membrane, or to move molocules from an area of low concentration to an area of low concentration. Does not require energy  
🗑
transport proteins   pick up molocules and carry them in or out of the cell using their own energy in active transport  
🗑
engulfing   the cell membrane surrounds and engulfs a particle in active transport  
🗑
endocytosis   the process of bringing particles into the cell  
🗑
exocytosis   the process of getting particles out of the cell  
🗑
photosynthesis   how plants make food by using the energy from sunlight  
🗑
autotroph   an organism that makes its own food  
🗑
heterotroph   organisms that cannot make their own food  
🗑
pigment   color matter  
🗑
chlorophyll/chloroplasts   a green pigment that absorbs light energy from the sun  
🗑
stomata   small openings on he underside of the leaf that let in carbon dioxide  
🗑
cellular respiration   cells break down sugars obtained during photosynthesis and turn it into energy for the cell  
🗑
How do cells get across the membrane?   The cells go through the pores.  
🗑
What are the two types of passive transport?   diffusion and osmosis  
🗑
What are two types of active transport?   Transport proteins and engulfing.  
🗑
How do passive and active transport differ from each other?   Passive transport -smaller molocules -move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration -no energy required. Active transport- larger molocules -move from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration -requires energy  
🗑
What are the two stages of photosynthesis?   Capturing sun's energy and using the energy to make food  
🗑
What happens during the stages of photosynthesis?   1. chloroplasts absorb suns energy 2. water, carbon dioxide, and light energy combine to make sugar and oxygen  
🗑
Photosynthesis equasion   6CO(2) +6H(2)O+light energy yeilds C(6)H(12)O(6) + 6O(2)  
🗑
What are the two stages of respiration?   1. in cytoplasm, oxygen not involved, glucose is broken down and small amount of energy is released. 2. glucose breaks down more, carbon dioxide and water diffuse out of the cell, more energy is released.  
🗑
Respiration equasion   C(6)H(12)O(6) + 6O(2) yeilds 6CO(2) + 6H(2)O + energy  
🗑
What types of organisms undergo respiration?   all living things  
🗑
What types of organisms undergo photosynthesis?   autotroph (plant)  
🗑
Why is fermation different than respiration?   fermation obtains energy without using oxygen  
🗑
How is alcoholic fermation different from lactic acid fermation?   Alcoholic fermation takes place when single celled organisms break down glucose, when lactic acid fermation takes place when your cells need oxygen  
🗑
How is respiration (breathing) related to cellular respiration?   Breathing brings in oxygen needed for cellular respiration  
🗑
cells   basic units of function & structure in living things  
🗑
cell theory   1) all living things are made of cells 2  
🗑
cell theory   1)all living things are made of cells 2) basic units of function & matter 3)all cells are produced from other cells  
🗑
cell membrane   protection, shape & support, semi-permiable  
🗑
endoplasmic reticulum   makes fats, transports substances(proteins)  
🗑
ribosome   make proteins  
🗑
golgi apparatus   packages proteins and carbohydrates & transports them  
🗑
lysosome   get rid of waste & old cell parts (use digestive enzymes)  
🗑
vacuole   storage container (stores: water, food, waste)  
🗑
mitochondria   breaks down energy from proteins for the cell  
🗑
nucleus   control center, holds genetic material  
🗑
nucleolus   makes ribosomes  
🗑
cytoplasm   jelly substance that holds organelles in place & protects  
🗑
cell wall   only on plant cells, gives shape to keep plant upright, made of cellulose  
🗑
Robert Hooke   looked at corck "cells=small rooms"  
🗑
Anton van Leeuwenhook   found little organisms in pond water  
🗑
deletion   when a nitrogen base is taken out  
🗑
insertion   when a nitrogen base is added  
🗑
substitution   when a itrogen base is substituted  
🗑
repair enzymes   scout DNA for mistakes  
🗑
mutagens   things that cause DNA  
🗑
How do you make a copy of DNA?   mRNA makes copy of DNA and brings it to the ribosomes. tRNA brings amino acids whoch make proteins  
🗑
prokaryote   no nucleus  
🗑
eukaryote   has nucleus  
🗑
cell cycle   process by which the cell divides  
🗑
Interphase   rests, grows, centriols & organelles double  
🗑
Mitosis   process where the cell forms a new nucleus  
🗑
Chromatin   thread-like bodies in the nucleus  
🗑
chromatids   condensed chromatin  
🗑
chromosome   DNA carrying bodies in the nucleus  
🗑
centromere   where the chromosomes are joined  
🗑
spindle fibers   stringy things that form around centriols  
🗑
cytokonesis   the final stage of the cell cycle, where the cell membrane pinches in forming two cells  
🗑
centriols   cylerical structures  
🗑
cell plate   when eukaryotic cells woth a cell wall divide, a cell plate forms to divide them  
🗑


   

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.
