Whats the difference between Pro and Euk cells?

Eukaryotes have internal membrane-bound compartments (nucleus, organelles) for specialized functions, while prokaryotes do not.

100

What is cell transportation?

Cell transportation is the vital process of moving substances like nutrients, ions, and waste in and out of a cell through its selectively permeable membrane

100
  • "What makes energy for the cell? 

Mitochondria (cellular respiration).

100

What is osmosis?

Osmosis is the passive movement of water across a semipermeable membrane (like a cell wall) from an area with less solute (more water) to an area with more solute (less water), aiming to equalize concentrations on both sides.

100
What is the main purpose of each?


  • Photosynthesis: To capture light energy and convert it into stored chemical energy (glucose). 

  • Respiration: To break down glucose and release its stored energy as ATP for cellular work. 
200

Which one doesn't have an Organelle Pro or Euk?

Pro

200

How does cell respiration work?

Cellular respiration is how cells convert food (glucose) and oxygen into usable energy (ATP), water, and carbon dioxide.

200

Where are proteins made?

 Ribosomes (can be free or on Rough ER).

Describe how you would carry out an experiment to work out the sucrose concentration in carrot.

 prepare different sucrose solutions, place similarly-sized carrot pieces in each overnight, measure initial/final masses, calculate percentage mass change, then plot the results (concentration vs. % mass change) to find where the line crosses the x-axis (0% change), indicating the carrot's isotonic sucrose concentration.

200
What are the inputs (reactants) and outputs (products)? 



  • Photosynthesis: Inputs: Light, CO₂, Water; Outputs: Glucose, Oxygen. 

  • Respiration: Inputs: Glucose, Oxygen; Outputs: CO₂, Water, ATP. 
300

What is an example of Prokaryotic cell?

Bacteria and Archea

300

What is the equation for Celluar respiration?

C6 H12 O6+6co2+ 6h2o+ATP 

300
  • "What controls the cell?":  

The Nucleus (contains DNA).

300

what are the types of osmosis?

Osmosis has two main biological types based on water's direction: Endosmosis, where water enters a cell (swelling it in a hypotonic solution), and Exosmosis, where water leaves a cell (shrinking it in a hypertonic solution)

300
Where do they happen?


  • Photosynthesis: In chloroplasts (in plants/algae). 


  • Respiration: Starts in cytoplasm (glycolysis) and finishes in mitochondria (Krebs cycle, Electron Transport Chain).
400

Whats an example of a Eukaryotic cell?

Animal plant fungi

  • Name and describe the purpose of the 2 electron carriers that participate in cellular respiration.

The two main electron carriers in cellular respiration are NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) and FAD (Flavin Adenine Dinucleotide); their purpose is to shuttle high-energy electrons, picked up during glycolysis and the Krebs cycle, to the Electron Transport Chain, where their energy is used to generate most of the cell's ATP.

400
  • "What packages and ships things?" 

 The Golgi Apparatus (like a post office).

400

What are 5 examples of osmosis?

  • Water absorption by plant root hairs from soil.
  • Swelling of raisins when soaked in water.
  • Movement of water between cells and blood in human kidneys for urine formation.
  • The shrinking or swelling of red blood cells in different solutions.
400
How are they related?

 


  • They are opposite processes; products of one are reactants for the other, forming a continuous cycle for oxygen and carbon.
500

what does a prokaryotic cell and Eukaryotic cell contain and not contain?

Prokaryotic Cells (Bacteria, Archaea)

  • Nucleus: No true nucleus; DNA in a central nucleoid region.
  • Organelles: No membrane-bound organelles (no mitochondria, ER, etc.).
  • DNA: Single, circular DNA molecule, plus plasmids.

Eukaryotic Cells (Animals, Plants, Fungi, Protists)

  • Nucleus: True, membrane-bound nucleus containing DNA.
  • Organelles: Many membrane-bound organelles (mitochondria, chloroplasts in plants, etc.).
  • DNA: Multiple, linear DNA strands (chromosomes).
500

Where does cellular respiration take place?

Cellular respiration primarily occurs in the mitochondria (the cell's powerhouse) in eukaryotic cells, though the first step, glycolysis, starts in the cytoplasm (cytosol).

500

What's the difference between plant and animal cells? 

Plant cells have a cell wall, chloroplasts, and large central vacuole; animal cells have centrioles.

500

What causes Osmosis?

Osmosis is caused by the natural tendency of water to move across a selectively permeable membrane from an area of lower solute concentration (more water) to an area of higher solute concentration (less water), seeking to equalize the concentrations on both sides.

500
Why do plants do both?



  • Plants perform photosynthesis to make food but still need cellular respiration to break down that food for immediate energy (ATP) to live and grow, just like animals do.
