Mitochondria do what? | supply most of the ATP also referred to as power house |
Centrioles do what? | help separate chromosomes in cell division |
Cells contain cytoplasm also known as? | protoplasm (living matter} |
Plasma membrane are: also known cell membrane | fragile, surround each cell |
What are the 4 functions of proteins? | act as cell-to-cell recongnition, may serve as hormone receptors,help to form pores, serve as carriers |
DNA is contained within the? | chromatin |
DNA is absolutely needed for what? | cell reproduction |
The cell membrane is? | selectively permeable (lets certain things in, lets certain thins out |
The what is within the Nucleus and what does it contain? | Nucleolus, Contains DNA, RNA, and proteins |
What is the nucleolus is needed for what? | protein manufacture |

What do cilia look like? | small whiplike extensions |
Flagellum does what? | propels the cell itself projections are longer than cilia and are called flagella |
Solvent= | substances present in larger amounts in a solution |
Solute= | substance present in small amounts in a solution |
Solution= | solvent + solute |
Diffusion= | movement of molecules from area high concentration (of many collisions) to an area of low concentration (of fewer collisions) |
Osmosis= | diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane |
Filtration= | water and solutes forced through a membrane |
Facilitated filtration= | water and solutes forced through a membrane with the help of protein |
Phagocytosis= | cell eating (active) |
Pinocytosis= | cell drinking (stationary) |
What are the stages of Mitosis? | Prophase, Metaphase,Anaphase, Telophase |
Benign= | noncancerous, cannot spread, may enlarged, treated by surgery or leave it alone |
Malignant= | cancerous, can spread, treated by radiation, chemotherapy, surgery |
Hyperplasia or hypertrophy= | increase in tissue size |
Stem cell= | unspecialized cell that may become many different types of cells |
Meiosis= | cell division of reproductive cells |

Epithelial tissue does what? | covers and lines the body surfaces, also avascular |
What are the 4 functions of Epithelial tissues? | protection, filtration, absorption, secretion |
Simple squamous epithelia= | single layer of cells |
Simple cuboidal epithelia= | common in glands and their ducts |
Simple columnar epithelia= | provides some protection and may also occur in areas of absorption or secretion |
Pseudostratified epithelia= or Ciliated | lines much of the respiratory tract |
Muscle tissues one function is to? | contract and shorten |
Smooth muscle tissue= | also known as visceral, peristalsis-wave like contraction, involuntary |
Skeletal muscle tissue= | striated and is voluntary |
Cardiac tissue is only found in the? | heart, involuntary |
Nueron= | nerve cell |
