Cells and Organelles
What is a thin, flexible barrier around the cell?
What is the cell membrane
The process of DNA becoming mRNA
What is Transcription
The function of the Smooth ER
The passive movement of water from a high concentration gradient to a low conc gradient
What is Diffusion
This type of cell has a lower concentration of solutes and higher concentration of water
What is a Hypotonic solution
-----------are the simplest structural and functional living units of an organism.
What is the Cell
The process of mRNA becoming protein
What is Translation
What are the small particles that are made of RNA and protein
What is ribosomes
The passive movement of water across
a selectively permeable membrane
What is Osmosis
What controls most of the cell processes and contains the hereditary information of DNA?
What is the nucleus
The four Nitrogenous bases in RNA
A, U, G, C
What is the small dense region that makes up most nuclei
What is nucleolus
Phagocytosis and Pinocytosis is an example of this
What is Endocytosis
Stack of flattened membranous sacs near the nucleus and ER. Also the UPS of the cell
What is Golgi Body
What is the organelle in which the components of the cell membrane are assembled and some proteins are modified?
What is the Endoplasmic Reticulum
The two types of Cell division
What is Mitosis and Meiosis
What is the small organelle that is filled with enzymes?
What is lysosomes?
Occurs in gases and liquids due to
constant, random motion of substances including in your lungs
What is Diffusion
This is the site of aerobic respiration.
What is the Mitochondria
A process whereby Parent cell forms two daughter cells with the same number (46) and composition of chromosomes. Identical offspring
What is Mitosis
Two functions of the cell membrane
Maintains cell integrity.
Separates ICF and ECF.
The Sodium/Potassium pump is an example of this
Active transport
Long, whiplike projections containing
microtubules. This organelle Enables movement
What is the Flagella
