Organelles
The powerhouse of the cell
BONUS POINTS
The site of lipid synthesis
What is the mitochondria?
What is the smooth endoplasmic reticulum?
This organelle is considered the "brain" of the cell and the control center.
What is the nucleus?
Diffusion of water across a partially permeable membrane
What is osmosis?
The phases of interphase
What are S, G1, G2?
Stage in which the sister chromatids are pulled to opposite sides of the cell
What is anaphase?
These tiny organelles synthesize proteins by linking amino acids together.
What are ribosomes?
This organelle is referred to as the "garbage disposal"
BONUS POINTS
This organelle is referred to as the detoxifier and metabolizer
What is lysosome?
What is peroxisome?
A solution that has less water than the solutes
What is a hypertonic solution?
The structure that determines how many times a cell divides
What is a telomere?
Stage in which the chromosomes line up at the center of the cell
What is metaphase?
This organelle is where proteins are shipped, sorted, labeled and finished.
What is the Golgi Apparatus?
This organelle helps transports vesicles. It helps make protein with the ribosomes attached to it.
What is the rough endoplasmic reticulum?
The transport of some molecules that are not normally able to pass through the lipid membrane and need channel or carrier proteins to help them move.
What is facilitated diffusion?
The three main parts of the cell cycle
What are interphase, mitosis, cytokinesis?
Stage when the cytoplasm divides
BONUS POINTS
Term used to describe the division of the cytoplasm
What is telophase?
What is cytokinesis?
The organelle that acts as the thin protective layer that surrounds the cell
BONUS POINTS
This protective layer is made of a
What is the cell membrane?
What is a phospholipid bilayer
The organelle used to store water, salt, proteins, and carbohydrates
What is a vesicle or vacuole?
A solution that causes a cell to swell
What is hypotonic?
The type of cells that rapidly divide
BONUS POINTS
Type of cells that never divide
What are epithelial cells?
What are nerve cells?
These organelles develop into spindle fibers
What are microtubules?
These organelles help provide the cytoskeleton for the cell
What are microtubules?
This fluid holds organelles in place and helps transport nutrients
What is the cytoplasm?
Solute concentration in which both sides of the membrane are equal
BONUS POINTS
Diffusion continues until this is reached
What is isotonic?
What is equilibrium?
The process by which cells develop different characteristics
Phase is which the chromosomes appear and the nuclear membrane breaks down
What is prophase?
