Question
Answer
anabolism   process of building up complex materials (proteins) from simple materials. Anabolism produces proteins such as hormones and enzymes that are important to growth of cells. Occurs in the endoplasmic reticulum  
🗑
catabolism   process of breaing down complex materials (foods) to form simpler substances and release energy  
🗑
cell membrane   structrue surrounding and protecting the cell. it determines what enters and leaves the cell  
🗑
chromosomes   rod shaped structures in the nucleus taht contain DNA called genes. 46 chromosomes (23 pairs) in very cell except for sex cells with contain only 23 individual unpaired chromosomes  
🗑
cytoplasm   all the meaterial that is outside the nucleus and yet contained within the cell membrane  
🗑
DNA   Chemical found within each chromosome. arranged like a sequence of recipes in code, it directs the actives of the cell  
🗑
endoplasmic reticulum (ER)   structure within the cystoplasm. where large proteins are made from smaller protein pieces. Anabolism takes place on the ribosomes of the ER  
🗑
genes   regions of DNA within each chromosome  
🗑
karyotype   picture of chromosomes in the nucleus of a cell  
🗑
metabolism   the total of the chemical processes in a cell. it includes catabolism and anabolism  
🗑
mitochondria   structures in the cytoplasm in which foods are burned to release energy. catabolism takes place in mitochondria  
🗑
nucleus   control center of the cell  
🗑


   

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.
