What does the nucleus do?

Protects your DNA

100

What is a chromosome?

one long continuous thread of DNA that consists of many genes

100

What is homeostasis?

A stable, internal environment.

100

The type of transport that requires energy.

Active transport

100

What is mitosis?

Cellular division part of the cell cycle.


200

What do the ribosomes do?

Make proteins of course! 

200

Where are telomeres located?

Found on the ends of chromosomes 

200

How does the cell membrane help to maintain homeostasis?

It is selectively permeable meaning it is picky about what goes in and out of the cell. 

200

What are the three types of passive transport?

Diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and osmosis. 

200

What are daughter cells?

Cells that are identical!!! Produced during mitosis.

300

What does the Golgi apparatus do?

Like the postal worker. Receives (from rough ER), packages, and ships proteins where they need to go.

300

What happens during interphase?

- replication of DNA

- cell growth

300

What is the difference between endocytosis and exocytosis?

Endocytosis: materials move into the cell


Exocytosis: materials exit the cell


300

If materials are moving from an area of high concentration to areas of low concentration, it is what type of transport?

Passive

300

What are the stages within mitosis?

Prophase

Metaphase

Anaphase

Telophase

400

What is located in the little spaceship (vesicle) sent out by the rough ER?

Proteins! 

400

True or false: The cell cycle spends most of its time in interphase.

True

400

What is negative feedback?

A way for the body to return quickly back to homeostasis. 

400

If a cell shrivels, what type of solution is it in?

Hypertonic

400

What happens at each stage of mitosis?

Prophase: chromosomes condense and envelope breaks

Metaphase: chromosomes line up in center

Anaphase: sister chromatids pulled apart 

Telophase: envelope reforms 

500

Which cell organelle do you think is the most important and why?

Any cell organelle works as long as you support your choice with evidence! 

500

Some people say that interphase is the resting phase of the cell. Is this accurate? Why or why not?

Resting in terms of not dividing, yes.

Resting in terms of doing nothing, no. The cell grows, duplication of organelles, and replicates DNA in this phase. 

500

Is negative feedback a bad thing?

NO! Negative feedback returns the body straight back to homeostasis so the internal balance can be maintained. 

500

What types of materials are moved across the cell membrane for each of the six types of transport? (provide the name of transport and the substance it moves!)

Simple diffusion: oxygen and carbon dioxide

Osmosis: water

Facilitated diffusion: glucose

Molecular pump: ions (sodium or potassium)

Endocytosis: bacteria

Exocytosis: neurotransmitters
