Cards

Term
Said all plants and plant parts possess cell
Definition
Schleiden
Term
Said all cells arise from pre-existing cells
Definition
Virchow
Term
boundary of the cell. isolates cell from outside enviorment. Selectively permeable. made f a phospholipid by-layer
Definition
plasma memberane
Term
fuctions as lipid synthesis. Detoxification. storage and vesicle formation
Definition
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum
Term
mains points of cell theory
Definition
The cell is the basic structural unit of life. The cell is the basic functional unit of life. All living thins posses at least one cell. Cells come from pre-existing cells
Term
Two famous Cell scientists
Definition
Leewnhoek and Hooke
Term
function as the site of protien synthesis
Definition
ribosomes
Term
the seven cell functions
Definition
reproduction, transport, digestion, respiration, synthesis, movement, irritability
Term
the energy releasing organelle of an animal cell. involved in cellular respiration
Definition
mitochondrion
Term
site for ribosome attachment. creates transport protiens.
Definition
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum
Term
assist formation of cilia and flagella. involved in microtubule formation.
Definition
centrioles
Term
houses the organelles and cell contents
Definition
Cytoplasm
Term
membrane bound sac that functions in transport
Definition
vesicle
Term
produces ribosomes. contains chromatin.
Definition
nucleus
Term
recieves transport vesicles. modifu=ies sorts and activates protens. produces transport vesicles. produces lysosomes.
Definition
Golgi apparatus
Term
functions in photosynthesis.
Definition
chloroplast
Term
aid in digestion of nutrients, molecules, and worn cell organelles
Definition
lysosomes
Term
used in the movement of the organism in single celled organisms. movement of materials
Definition
cilia
Term
helps the cell to retain and change shape
Definition
cytoskeleton
Term
movement of cell through its enviorment
Definition
flagella
Term
constricted region of a replicated chromosomes
Definition
centromere
Term
possesses a nucleus and membrane bound organelles
Definition
eukaryotice cell
Term
higher concentration of solutes. cell volume decreases
Definition
hypertonic
Term
requires cell energy//doesnt require cell energy
Definition
active transport//passive transport
Term
molecules move spontaneously due to _________ _______
Definition
kinetic energy
Term
Said all organisms posses cells and cell products
Definition
Schwann
Term
diffence in the concentration of molecules between two locations
Definition
concentration gradient
Term
lack a nuleus and membrane bound organelles
Definition
prokaryotic cells
Term
you count the number of chromosomes by counting the number of __________
Definition
centromeres
Term
spontaneous movement of molecules from a high to low concentration. move down the concentration gradent.
Definition
diffusion.
Term
movement of substances by unfolding of the cell membrane. ingestion
Definition
endocytosis
Term
diffusion of molecules across theh phospholipid by-layer.
Definition
simple diffusion
Term
MITOSIS: nucleus breaks down. chromatin condenses to chromosomes. centrioles migrate to poles. microtubules form
Definition
prophase
Term
diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane
Definition
osmosis
Term
comparing one solution to another
Definition
tonicity
Term
soution possessing the SAME concentration of the solutes and solvent as the cell
Definition
isotonic
Term
lesser concentration of solutes, higher concentration of solvent than the cell. cell volume increases.
Definition
hypotonic
Term
MITOSIS: sister chromatids separated and moved to poles. cell elongates to pull chromosomes apart.
Definition
anaphase
Term
division of parent cell cytoplasm into two daughter cells.
Definition
cytokinesis
Term
diffusion through a cell membrane using protiens
Definition
facilitated diffusion
Term
functions in the storage of substances.
Definition
vacuole
Term
possessing one set of chromosome. ex: sex cells
Definition
haploid cell.
Term
MITOSIS: chromosomes align on the center quator
Definition
metaphase
Term
movement out of cell byfusion of vesicles within cell membrane. secretion/excretion
Definition
exocytosis
Term
protection of the cell.
Definition
cell wall
Term
spread of cancer cells to other parts of the body from the origination site.
Definition
metastasis
Term
possessing two sets of chromosomes. same size, shape, and length. Carry genes for same trait.
Definition
diploid cell
Term
in interphase, this phase is the replication of DNA. the centrioles replicate as well
Definition
synthesis phase
Term
transport across membrane by means od vesicle formation
Definition
bulk transport
Term
checkpoints in cell cycles are controlled by ________ _______. _________ code for these.
Definition
Regulatory protiens.
Proto-oncogens
Term
longest phase of cell division. first gap phase, synthesis phase, 2nd growth stage.
Definition
interphase
Term
MITOSIS: two daughter nucei form. chromosomes unwind into chromatin. spindle fibers break down
Definition
telophase
Term
a change in a DNA sequence causing the proto-oncogens to only be oncogens. unregulated cell division
Definition
mutation
