Prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells share these parts.
What are ribosomes, DNA, cell membrane, cell wall (some eukaryotes).
100
This model suggests that the cell membrane is constantly moving and is flexible, studded with many different compounds such as proteins and carbohydrates.
What is the fluid mosaic model
100
This is a general term for a signaling molecule
What is a ligand
100
This organelle holds the genetic information for eukaryotic cells.
What is the nucleus.
100
This is the measurement of water's tendency to move.
What is water potential
200

Membrane bound organelles such as mitochondria and chloroplasts are not found in these cells.

What are prokaryotic cells?

200
The process of solutes moving from a region of higher concentration to lower concentration through a semi-permeable membrane
What is diffusion
200

A cell is placed in an open container. Both the cell and the solution are at 27 C and contain 1.0 M of solute. The cell contains glucose while the solution contains Sodium Chloride. This is the direction water will move.

What is out of the cell?

200
Synthesizing lipids like oils and steroids are a main function of this organelle.
What is the smooth ER
200

The direction water will move in a cell with a water potential of -5 bars is placed in a solution at -2 bars.

What is into the cell?

300
It is believed that these cell types evolved first.
What is prokaryotic
300
Because this substance is polar, it travels through aquaporins.
What is water
300

The environment where the cell and the solution are the same.

What is isotonic?

300
This organelle can fuse with a vacuole to destroy unnecessary cellular components.
What is a lysosome
300

If a cell with a 10% solute concentration is placed in a solution with a 15% solute concentration, what direction will water move?

What is out of the cell?

400

This widely accepted theory states that primitive cells were taken in by other larger cells to form a symbiotic relationship that eventually led to organelle formation.

What is the endosymbiotic theory

400
These types of molecules have an "easier" time traveling through the cell membrane.
What are small and hydrophobic
400
Protein kinases are involved in this "waterfall" of events that occur during the transduction portion of the pathway
What is a phosphorylation cascade
400
Sorting and packaging of proteins into vesicles occurs from the cis- side to the trans- side of this organelle.
What is the golgi body/apparatus
400

The water potential of a glucose solution with molar composition of .42M at 32 deg Celsius with 2 bars of pressure?

What is -8.7?

500
These are 3 differences between plant and animal cells.
What is vacuole size, cell walls, and chloroplasts.
500
The use of a transmembrane protein to move substances from higher concentrated areas to lower concentrated areas is called this.
What is facilitated diffusion
500
Also known as programmed cell death, the result of a signal transduction might initiate this.
What is apoptosis
500
During endocytosis, cells can take in nutrients from their surroundings and then store them using these organelles.
What is the vacuole
500

The water potential of a glucose solution with molar composition of .42M at 32 deg Celsius in an open container.

What is -10.7?
