Cards

Term

Diffusion

 

 

Definition

Particles move form areas of higher concentration to lower concentration.

 

Term

Osmosis

Is

Important to Cells...

Definition

Cells are filled with fluids

that are mostly made

of water.

Term

Cellular Respiration

Is When...?

Definition

Cells use oxygen to

produce energy from food.

Term

Fermentation 

In muscle cells

produces..?

Definition
Lactic acid
Term

Photosynthesis

Allows...?

Definition

A plant to produce glucose

(food.)

Term
Osmosis
Definition

The movement of water through a membrane


Term
Passive Transport
Definition
The movement of substances through a cell membrane without the use of cell energy.
Term
Endocytosis
Definition

 

The process which a cell membrane surrounds and encloses a large particle to bring it into the cell

Term
Vesicle
Definition
The sac formed around a large particle to allow a cell to take in or remove the particle.
Term
Active Transport
Definition

 

The movement of substances through a cell membrane with the use of cell Energy.

Term
Exocytosis
Definition

 

The process by whic a cell gets rid of large particles.

Term

Photosynthesis

 

Definition

 

The process a plant uses in order to crate glucose.

Term
Mitochondria
Definition
The place where cellular respiration in eukaryotes takes place.
Term
Fermentation
Definition
The process cells use to produce energy without oxygen.
Term

Cellular Respiration

Equation..?

Definition
[image]
Term
ATP
Definition
The substance that supplies energy to fuel cell activites.
Term
Cell Cycle
Definition
Life Cycle of a cell
Term
Prophase
Definition

1st phase of Mitosis

**Nuclear membrane dissolves**

-Chromosomes condense into rodlike stuctures

(Not longer looks tangled mess)

Term
Metaphase
Definition

-2nd Phase of Mitosis

**Chromosomes line up along the equator of the cell**

-Homologous. Chro. pair up

Term
Anaphase
Definition

3rd Phase of Mitosis

-Chromatids seperate so that one from each pair moves to opposite sides of the cell.

Term
Telophase
Definition

4th phase of Mitosis

-A nuclear membrane forms around each set of chromosomes.

-Chrom. unwind and mitosis is now complete.

Term
Homologus Chromosomes
Definition
Chromosomes that have the same sequence of genes and the same structures.
Term
Chromosomes
Definition
In a eukaryotic cell, one of the structures in the nucleus that are made up of DNA and protein. 
Term
Cytokinesis
Definition
The division of the cytoplasm of a cell
Term
Mitosis
Definition
In eukaryotic cells, a process of cell division that forms two new nuclei
Term
Binary Fisson
Definition
Cell division in bacteria
Term
Chromtids
Definition
X Shape
Term
Centromere
Definition
Holds two chromatids together
Term
Cell Plate
Definition
Forms in the middle of a cell.
Term
Interphase
Definition

-1st stage of Eukaryotic Cell cycle

**The cell grows and copies its organelles and chromosomes**

Term
How Many Stages Are There In The Eukaryotic Cell Cycle..?
Definition

-3 stages

1.-Interphase

2.-Mitosis

3.-Cytokinesis

Term
Mitosis
Definition

-2nd Stage of Eukaryotic C.C.

**Seperation if the chromatids occur**

-4 phases

-Prophase

-Metaphase

-Anaphase

-Telophase

 

Term
Cytokinesis
Definition

3rd Stage of Eukaryotic Cell Cycle


-This process differs on type of cell

(Ex: Animal or Plant)

Term

Cytokinesis

(Animal Cell)

Definition

-In a cell that lack a cell wall pinches in 2

-Starts at cell membrane, pinching inward to form a groove

Eventually pinching all the way  through the cell.

Term

Cytokinesis

(Plant Cell)

Definition
Cells that have a cell wall, a new cell wall will form between the 2 and then cell membrane will form and seperate the two.
Term
Eukaryotic Cells
Definition

-Contains even # of chrom.

-occur in pairs of similar chrom.(Homologous Chromosomes.)

-Has Nucleus

-Multiple types of Organelles

-More DNA

Term
Prokaryotes Cells
Definition

-No Nucleus

-No Membrane Organelles

-One Circular DNA Molecule

-Undergoes Binary Fission to reproduce-splitting into 2 parts

 

Term
DNA
Definition

(Deoxyribonucleic acid)

-Hereditary material that is usually found in the nucleus of a cell.

Term
Chromosomes
Definition
-The organizational structures of DNA
Term

DNA

same as

Chromosome.....?

Definition

-No


Chromosomes are made up of DNA that has been wound up and organized with proteins that hold it all together

-DNA is loose and not very visible

Term
What is inside a cell?
Definition

-Cytoplasm

**Composed liquids (cytosol) and organelles bound by a membrane**

Term
Semipermable
Definition
Only certain substances can pass through
Term
Molecules
Definition
Water made of particles
Term

Hypotonic 

Solution

Definition

Red Blood Cells place in pure water 

-Cells enlarge; water is less concentrated

Term
Hypertonic Solution
Definition

Red blood cells placed in Salt-water

Water is more concentrated inside the cell so it shrivelled up
