These tiny organelles synthesize proteins by linking amino acids together.
What are ribosomes?
This organelle is considered the "brain" of the cell and the control center.
What is the nucleus?
An organelle found in the leaves of green plants.
Chloroplasts
This characteristic of the cell membrane allows some molecules in and keeps others out.
What is selective permeability (semi-permeability)?
How many types of macromolecules are there?
4
What is the mitochondria?
Who discovered the cell?
Robert Hooke
What do plants produce and humans breathe?
Oxygen
This type of transport involves water moving across a membrane from a high to a low concentration.
What is osmosis?
Deoxyribonucleic acid can be shortened to...?
DNA
This jelly-like fluid holds organelles in place and helps transport nutrients
Cytoplasm
This organelle helps transports vesicles. It helps make protein with the ribosomes attached to it.
What is the Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)?
What are the 2 products in photosynthesis?
Glucose and Oxygen
The cell membrane is made up of a bilayer of this.
What are phospholipids?
What macromolecule makes up DNA?
Nucleic Acids
This type of cell has DNA but it is not enclosed in a nucleus.
What is prokaryotic?
Cows and trees have this type of cell classification.
What is eukaryotic cell?
What are the 3 things used to make glucose in photosynthesis?
Carbon Dioxide, Water, Sunlight
When a cell receives a balance of required nutrients and water, it is considered to be in this state.
What is homeostasis?
What are the 4 types of macromolecules?
Lipids
Proteins
Carbohydrates
Nucleic Acids
These three organelles can be found in plant cells but not in animal cells.
What is chloroplast, central vacuole and cell wall?
What are the 3 parts of the cell theory?
All cells come from pre-existing cells.
All living things are made of cells.
Cells are the smallest unit of life.
What is the equation for photosynthesis?
CO2 + H20 + sunlight-----------C6H12O6 +O2
Using ATP, this type of transport moved Na+ into a cell that already had a high concentration.
What is active transport?
Candy Bars, Hot Cheetos, Soda, and Chips are bad sources of this molecule.
Carbohydrates
