The powerhouse of the cell
What is the Mitochondria?
This aids in movement of the cell by whipping like a boat propeller
What are flagella?
This is the complementary base pair for Cytosine
What is Guanine?
This is a monosaccharide that is readily available for use
What is glucose?
A teabag releasing tea into a cup of hot water.
What is diffusion?
What is a nucleus?
This is found in a eukaryote to house DNA, but not in a prokaryote
What is a nucleus?
This is the 5-carbon sugar use in RNA
A long chain of monomers, such as glycogen stored in the liver
What is a polysaccharide?
A cell in this solution will shrink
What is a hypertonic solution?
Mitochondria use this process to regenerate ATP
What is Cellular Respiration?
The membrane outside of the cell wall in a prokaryote
What is glycocalyx
What are hydrogen bonds?
These are the required elements to consider a molecule organic
A mode of transportation that requires energy
What is Active Transport?
These can be found on cells in the respiratory tract and in part of the reproductive tract
What are cilia?
This bacteria is harder to fight due to a membrane on both sides of the cell wall
What is gram negative bacteria?
This is the complementary base pair for Adenine in RNA
What is Uracil?
These are hydrophobic, such as steroids
What are lipids?
A cell in this solution will swell
What is a hypotonic solution?
The function of a phospholipid bilayer, which only allows specific molecules through
What is a Semi-permeable membrane
This can either be used for movement of the cell, OR most commonly for transferring DNA to another prokaryote
What is/are pilus/pili?
What are deoxyribose and phosphate?
These have many functions, including speeding up chemical reactions (enzymes) and transporting nutrients in and out of a cell
What are proteins?
The 3 domains of cells - two of which are identical except for the contents of their cell membranes
What are Archaea, Bacteria, and Eukarya?
