Organelles
network of membranes, outside of the nucleus, studded with ribosomes, primarily responsible for the synthesis, folding, and modification of proteins. It acts as a manufacturing and quality control site for proteins, often transporting them to the Golgi apparatus.
What is the Rough ER?
An example of a multicellular organism?
What are humans, animals, plants, fungi, and some algae and protists? (any of these will work and others)
This process occurs naturally as molecules tend to move from high concentration to low concentration without using any energy, example: air freshners
What is diffusion?
This type of transport does not require energy, and particles move from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration.
What is passive transport?
An old theory that life comes from nonliving things.
What is spontaneous generation?
The powerhouse of the cell, creates ATP.
What is the mitochondria?
An example of a unicellular organism.
What are any type of bacteria or achaea?
When cells and the solution surrounding them contain equal amounts of solute, the solution is said to be
What is isotonic?
This type of transport requires energy (ATP), and particles usually move from areas of low concentration to high concentration (against the concentration gradient).
What is active transport?
An old theory that eggs and sperm contain miniature people that grow to adults.
What is preformation?
acts as the cell's "post office," processing, sorting, and packaging proteins and lipids from the Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) into vesicles for delivery to lysosomes, the plasma membrane, or secretion.
What is the Golgi Apparatus?
Cells that contain NO nucleus and NO membrane bound organelles
What are prokaryotes or prokaryotic cells?
A process of diffusing water that produces equal solution concentrations on both sides of the semipermeable membrane.
What is osmosis?
A type of passive transport that does not require energy but uses protein channels in order to pass the substance through with the concentration gradient.
What is facilitated diffusion?
Cells come from pre-existing cells, cells are the basic structural and functional units of living things is known as the accepted model of the cell called
What is the cell theory?
hair-like appendages on eukaryotic cells that function in locomotion, sensory interpretation, and moving substances across cell surfaces.
What are cilia?
Cells that contain a nucleus and membrane bound organelles
What are eukaryotes or eukaryotic cells?
When a solution contains a higher concentration of solutes than the inside of the cell, the cell will shrink as water moves out to reach an equilibrium.
What is a hypertonic solution?
A type of active transport that uses vesicles to fuse with the cell membrane to release waste products outside of the cell.
What is exocytosis?
This scientist contributed to the cell theory that "all plant tissues are composed of cells and that the cell is the fundamental unit of plant structure and function".
Who is Matthias Schleiden?
The genetic material within the nucleus of a cell, consisting of DNA, RNA, and associated proteins, is collectively known as
What is Chromatin?
Unicellular bacteria can live independently but prefer to live in one of these
What is a colony?
When a solution has a lower concentration of solutes than inside the cell, the cell will swell as water enters the cell as it tries to reach equilibrium.
What is a hypotonic solution?
A type of active transport where a vesicle forms from the cell membrane, capturing substances to bring into the cell.
What is endocytosis?
Who is Robert Hooke?
