Parts of a Cell
This is the brain of the cell
Nucleus
The main fuel that is used for cell activities
ATP
this happens when molecules pass through a cell membrane without using energy?
Passive transport
How do plants absorb the water needed for photosynthesis
through the roots
A cell that does not have a nucleus is called a _______
Eukaryote
The Jellylike substance that fills up the inside of a cell
Cytoplasm
Where is DNA located?

During this process, the cell membrane wraps around the particle and encloses it inside a vesicle
Endocytosis
What are the two ways to change sugar into ATP?
cellular respiration and fermentation
What happens in the metaphase of Mitosis
chromosomes line up along the midline of the cell
A _______ _________ is found in a plant cell but not in an animal cell.
Cell wall
What makes up a cell membrane?
phospholipids
This is the main type of passive transport
diffusion
What is the waste product of photosynthesis?

Before any cells divides, it makes a copy of it's ____
DNA
The cells garbage disposal
Lysosomes
How are lipids different than proteins and carbohydrates?
They do not dissolve in water
What is the last step in exocytosis?
The cell then releases the particle
what is the difference between cellular respiration and fermentation?
Fermentation does not use oxygen
In what phase of mitosis does the mother cell divide and form two daughter cells
Telophase
How many cells does the humanbody have?
Trillions
What are three jobs that proteins do?
-protect cells
-digest cells
-fight infections
-keep organisms working
How do molecules naturally move during diffusion?
from crowded areas to less crowded areas
Explain the relationship between the chemical equation that happens during photosynthesis and the chemical equation that happens during cellular respiration?
They are the exact opposite
Why is the cell cycle important
Without it, we would not be able to grow or repair
