Cell Structures
What are the cilia and flagella made of? pg 100, 102
These two organelles work together: one is a series of stacked membranes, and the other is a sac that buds off it. (pp. 102-3)
What are the Golgi apparatus and a vesicle?
This process describes how a cell makes continual adjustments to keep its internal environment balanced. pg 105-106
What is homeostasis?
Cells are the structural and functional units of all living things and cells come only from other preexisting cells. pg 98
What is the Cell Theory?
Positive and Negative Feedback are both important to the body because they help to do this?
What kind of cell contains organelles with membranes around them? pg. 100
What is a Eukaryote Cell?
Large molecules can enter a cell using this active process, such as a white blood cell engulfing a bacterium. pg 108
What is endocytosis?
The diffusion of a solvent through a semipermeable membrane. pg 107
What is osmosis?
Made of two or more cells that depend on each other to function. pg 99
What is a multicellular organism?
This organelle is most responsible for making proteins. pg 101
What is a ribosome?
Found in plants, fungi, algae and bacteria; provide strength and rigidity to the cell. ? pg 101
What is a cell wall?
This type of solution causes the water to pull out of the cell, leading to shriveling, a process similar to how a fertilizer draws water out of a plant's cells. pg 107
What is a hypertonic solution?
What is unicellular?
This structure is studded with ribosomes and has an internal network of tubes and membranes. pg. 101
What is the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER)?
Large molecules can enter a cell passively using _____________ or actively using endocytosis. pg 108-109
What is facilitated diffusion?
This type of transport requires an input of energy to move molecules, while facilitated diffusion is an example of the other type. pg 107
What is active transport?
The parts inside a cell, literally meaning "little cells". pg 100
What is an organelle?
