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
The ideal type of cell for optimal efficiency
What is small?
This is the measure of the amount of matter that fills up an object - such as a cell.
What is volume?
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
The cell membrane is described by this term which implies it is flexible and has many components.
Fluid Mosaic (Model)
This is determined by the amount of water within a plant cell's vacuole. It changes as the water increases or decreases.
Turgor pressure
If a cell needs to keep a large concentration of K+ inside of its membrane, this process is used because it works against the concentration gradient
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 or equal
The animal cell lacks these two structures that are found in plant cells.
What are chloroplast and a cell wall?
A Chi-Square value above the critical value on the chi-square chart would lead you to this conclusion.
What is to reject the null hypothesis
This is the name of the process where a cell takes in a large quantity of molecules rapidly by forming vesicles
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
This type of cell classification means there is no nucleus or membrane bound organelles.
What is Prokaryote?
When a cell is exporting a protein in mass quantities Name 1 of the organelles involved.
Cell membrane, Golgi Apparatus, Vesicle, Ribosome, Rough ER
This type of transport requires a transmembrane protein to allow certain substances to cross the cell membrane following the concentration gradient.
What is Facilitated Diffusion
This organelle can fuse with a vacuole to destroy unnecessary cellular components.
What is Lysosome?
A cell is placed in an open container. Both the cell and the solution are at 27 C and contain a 1 M solution. The cell contains glucose while the solution contains a salt. Which way will the water move?
Out of the cell
DAILY DOUBLE
This component of a cell membrane regulates the fluidity of the membrane.
Within the Water Potential formula - [T] stands for this and it is in what unit of measurement.
What is Temperature in Kelvin
