🗑
nucleus have?   double layered nuclear membranes  
🗑
cytoplasm   liquid solution of dissolved minerals, gases. and other molecules  
🗑
Contains organelles   Cytoplasm  
🗑
Organelles   "organs" of the cell, literally "little organs"  
🗑
Proteasome   barrel-shaped organelle made of enzymes that cut protein molecules apart  
🗑
Endoplasmic Reticulum   membranous tubules that extend from the nuclear membrane to the cell membrane.  
🗑
2 types of Endoplasmic reticulum   Rough ER, and Smooth ER  
🗑
Rough ER   Ribosomes on the surface  
🗑
Smooth ER   No ribosomes on the surface  
🗑
Golgi Appartus   Flat membranous sacs stacked like pancakes  
🗑
Mitochondria   power house of the cell  
🗑
Lysosomes   contain digestive enzymes called lysosomal  
🗑
Centrioles   Rod-shaped, organize spindle fibers that separate chromosomes during cell division  
🗑
Cilia   Many thread-like projections on certain cells  
🗑
Flagella   Mobile thread-like projection through the cell membrane  
🗑
Microvilli   Folds of the cell membrane that increase surface area  
🗑
Vacuoles   Pinched off plasma membrance during phagocytosis and pinocytosis  
🗑
What does cellular transport mechanism do?   move substances in and out of the cell  
🗑
Diffusion   movement of molecules from an area of greater concentration to and area of lesser concentration along a concentration gradient until equilbrium is reached.  
🗑
Osmosis   Diffusion of Water through a selectively permeable membrane  
🗑
isotonic   equal concentration of solutes  
🗑
hypotonic   low concentration of solutes  
🗑
hypertonic solution   higher concentration of solutes  
🗑
Facilitated diffusion   diffusion molecules through a membrane with help from proteins in the cell membrane called transporters  
🗑
active transport   energy requiring process of moving molecules against a concentration gradiet  
🗑
Filtration   substance are forced through fluids out of capillaries into the interstitial spaces  
🗑
Phagocytosis   moving cell engulfs something  
🗑
pinocytosis   stationary cell engulfs something  
🗑
DNA   double strand of nucletides twisted into a double helix made up of A,T,G,C  
🗑
Protein synthesis   Occurs in the Ribosomes  
🗑
how many types of Cell division are there?   two  
🗑
Mitosis   one cell divides into two identical cells both having a full set of chromosomes  
🗑
Meiosis   one cell divides into 4 cells each having half of the chromosomes  
🗑
Mitosis   Diploid number, Full set of chromosomes  
🗑
interphase   not a phase  
🗑
prophase   chromosomes coil up  
🗑
metaphase   chromosomes line up in the middle  
🗑
Anaphase   Spindle fibers pull chromosomes to each pole  
🗑
Telophase   Chromosomes uncoil to become chromatin  
🗑
Cytokinesis   cytoplasm divides and cell membranes close off  
🗑
Meiosis   results in gametes (egg and sperm)  
🗑
Fertilization   egg and sperm meet and join chromosomes to form a 2n diploid zygote  
🗑


   

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.
