Plasma Membrane Basics
This describes the membrane's ability to let some substances in while keeping others out.
Selective permiability
This organelle is known as the powerhouse of the cell.
mitochondria
This type of passive transport moves molecules from high to low concentration.
simple diffusion
What is the form of energy your body uses?
ATP
This structure controls what enters and leaves the cell.
Plasma Membrane
The plasma membrane is made up of what structure
phospholipid bilayer
This organelle packages, modifies, and ships proteins.
golgi aparatus
This type of diffusion uses transport proteins for help.
Found only in plant cells, this organelle stores water and other nutrients.
Vacuole
These proteins help molecules that are too large or charged cross the membrane.
Carrier proteins
This structure is the site of protein synthesis.
ribosomes
Water moves across the membrane by this specific process.
osmosis
Active transport will always use __________ to move molecules against their concentration gradient.
energy/ATP
This organelle converts sunlight into glucose through photosynthesis and this is where photosynthesis takes place.
Chloroplast
This part of the phospholipid is hydrophilic.
the head
This organelle contains digestive enzymes to break down waste.
lysosomes
This type of transport protein moves large and charged molecules and changed shape.
Carrier protein
This type of cell is large and complex, it includes animal, plant and fungal cells.
Eukaryotic cells
The plasma membrane has this quality that allow certain molecules in and keeps others out.
Selective permiability
This part of the phospholipid is hydrophobic causing the bilayer to turn
the tail
This organelle helps maintain cell shape and aids in movement inside the cell.
cytoskeleton
This term describes when the concentration of solutes is equal inside and outside the cell
equilibrium
This type of cell is small and simple and includes single celled organisms like bacteria.
prokaryotic cell
This is the basic unit of life
