Term
ribosomes
Definition
where proteins are built
Term
endoplasmic reticulum
Definition
directs things around the cell(rough has ribosomes attached)

produces lysosomes, vesicles and vacuoles
Term
lysosomes
Definition
"recycling plant"
Term
vacuole
Definition
stores carbs, water, etc.; provides support in plants
Term
vesicle
Definition
brings things in and out of cells
Term
cytoskeleton
Definition
supportive structure, framework
Term
mitochondrion
Definition
converts glucose into DNA
Term
chloroplast
Definition
turns light into energy (protists and plants)
Term
cell walls
Definition
supportive structure that surrounds the cell membrane (plants, fungi, some protists)
Term
flagella
Definition
moves a cell; whip-like (protist, some bacteria, not animals)
Term
cilia
Definition
hair like structures that are used for movement (single celled organisms that move freely)
Term
centrioles
Definition
help move DNA while cell division (ONLY animal cells)
Term
ROBERT HOOKE
Definition
1665: term "cell"; observed cork
Term
ANTON VANLEEUWENHOEK
Definition
1674: used high quality lenses to improve microscopes, observed pondwater>animolecules
Term
MATTHIAS SCHIEDIEN
Definition
1838: said plants were composed of cells
Term
THEODOR SCHWANN
Definition
1839: said animals were composed of cells
Term
ROBERT BROWN
Definition
1830s: discovered the cells nucleus; the nucleus directs cell division
Term
RUDOLF VIRCHOW
Definition
1855: new cells arise from the division of pre-existing cells
Term
STANLEY MILLER
Definition
1953: tested the hypothesis and produced amino acids in 1 week!!!
Term
OPARIN-HALDANE
Definition
1920s: hypothesis based on behavior of energy and molecules in all living things
Term
monera
Definition
prokaryotic, reproduce by binary fission (splitting in 2) ex: bacteria
Term
protista
Definition
eukaryotic, carryout specific cell functions, ex: amoeba, euglena, paramecium
Term
fungi
Definition
eukaryotic, cell wall composed of chitin, saprophytic>food comes from dead organic material, breaks down then injests, cells are not completely seperated, ex: bread mold, mushrooms, athletes foot
Term
plants
Definition
eukaryotic, cell wall composed of cellulose, autotrophic>makes own food, has chloroplasts and vacuoles, ex: elodea, onion
Term
animals
Definition
eukaryotic, heterotrophic>food comes from organic material, injest then digest, no cell wall or chloroplasts, do have centrioles
Term
Prokaryotic
Definition
no nucleus, small/simple, functions simply, ex: bacteria, came first>precursors to eukaryotics
Term
eukaryotic
Definition
nucleus, more complex/organized/larger, complex and specialized parts, ex: all body cells, plant cells, fungi, etc., evolutionarily advanced over prokaryotic cells
Term
cell theory!!!
Definition
*all living things are composed of cells*cells are alke in chemical composition and structure*cells are the smallest working unit of living things*all cells arise from other cells
Term
beginning of cells
Definition
1) earth consisted of prebiotic soup from which small organic compounds were made2)small molecules were joined to make larger molecules3)molecules organized into droplets / different characteristics than the molecules alone4)origin of heredity; formation of DNA allows primitive cells to reproduce themselves and pass on info
Term
endosymbiot hypothesis
Definition
-lynn marguilis proposed an evolutionary explanation for eukaryotic cells-eukaryotic cell is the result of prokaryotic cells living enclosed in one cell, utually benefiting from the relationship
Term
(down a) concentration gradients
Definition
from high concentration to low concentration
Term
passive transports
Definition
molecules move freely, no use of cells energy, disorder/chaos, diffusion, osmosis, facilitated diffusion
Term
active transport
Definition
moving molecules against the gradient, restores order, protein pumps, endocytosis, exoctosis
Term
diffusion
Definition
movement of molecules from high to low, random..bumping..spread and change directions..etc.
Term
osmosis
Definition
water molecules moving from high to low, cells can either shrink or expand as a result, (hypertonic, hypotonic, isotonic)
Term
facilitated diffusion
Definition
helps molecules move but still no use of cells energy, rely on proteins imbedded in membranes, protein channels, transport proteins
Term
hypertonic solution
Definition
concentration of solutes outside cell is highter, cell shrinks
Term
hypotonic solution
Definition
concentration of solutes inside is higher, cell expands
Term
isotonic solution
Definition
concentration of solutes inside and outside is equal
Term
transport proteins
Definition
gate-fit to match, used for control
Term
endocytosis
Definition
moving molecules into the cell (pocket > pinches off > vesicle), phagocytosis, phinocytosis
Term
exocytosis
Definition
moving molecules out of cells, (golgi body > vesicle > contact cell membrane > fuse > particles spill out of cell
Term
phagocytosis
Definition
cellular eating (endocytosis)
Term
pinocytosis
Definition
cellular drinking (endocytosis)
