Cell Transport
The type of molecule that move diffuse through cell membranes most rapidly
What is small and nonpolar
This is the cell structure responsible for making proteins
What is a ribosome
A cell placed in this type of solution will stay the same size
What is isotonic
This cell is smaller and less complex
What is a prokaryote cell?
This type of cell has a relatively low surface area to volume ratio
What is a large cell
If a substance diffusing across the cell membrane reaches equilibrium, do molecules still cross the cell membrane?
Yes, there is no longer a NET movement
This organelle packages and places a chemical tag on molecules in order to deliver the molecule to the correct location in an organism
Golgi Body (apparatus)
A cell placed in this type of solution will shrink
What is hypertonic
This cell is larger and has organelles
What is eukaryote cell?
This type of transport moves materials against the gradient.
What is active transport?
If a cell needs to keep a large concentration of K+ inside of its membrane, this process is used
Active transport
This organelle synthesizes lipids and steroids
Smooth ER
A cell is placed in a hypertonic solution. After 24 hours, you would expect the cell to now be _____ with the solution
isotonic
This cell has ribosomes
What is both types of cells (prokaryote and eukaryote)?
This type of transport moves materials across the membrane through an integral protein with the concentration gradient.
What is facilitated diffusion?
This is the name of the process where a cell takes in a large quantity of molecules rapidly
Endocytosis
During endocytosis, cells can take in nutrients from their surroundings and then store them using these organelles.
Vacuole
If a cell with a 10% solute concentration is placed in a solution with a 15% solute concentration, what direction will water move?
Out of the cell
These two organelles in eukaryotic cells have a double membrane surrounding them.
What are chloroplast and mitochondria?
These are the two components needed to calculate water potential.
What are solute potential and pressure potential?
When a cell is exporting a protein in mass quantities, what 3 organelles are involved?
Rough ER, Golgi Body, Vesicle
This organelle can fuse with a vacuole to destroy unnecessary cellular components.
Lysosome
This may occur when an animal cell is placed in a hypotonic solution.
What is lysed?
This type of cell can be unicellular.
What are both prokaryote and eukaryote?
This type of solution is ideal for plant cells.
What is hypotonic solution?
