Prokaryotes are:
simple, single - celled organisms
what organelle houses genetic material
The Nucleus
Cell transport moves substances across what kind of cell membrane?
A selectively permeable cell membrane.
What is Osmosis?
Osmosis is the natural movement of a solvent, usually water, across a semipermeable membrane from an area of high water concentration, to an area of low water concentration.
What does photosynthesis use to create glucose and oxygen?
Photosynthesis uses carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight.
Eukaryotes are:
Larger, complex cells.
True or false:
Plant cells typically have one, large vacuole. While animal cells have many, smaller vacuoles.
True
What does active transport need to transport substances?
needs ATP, and transport proteins.
Osmosis: the movement of water across what kind of membrane?
A semipermeable membrane
What does photosynthesis release as a byproduct when creating glucose?
Oxygen
Which cell came first?
Prokaryote, or Eukaryote?
Prokaryote
What does the ER do in a cell?
The ER acts as a network for protein and lipid synthesis.
What are the types of transport in cell transportation?
Passive transport, and active transport.
What is the state of the cell when there is more water outside of the cell, than inside?
It is hypotonic
Where does photosynthesis take place in a cell?
The chloroplasts
True or False:
Prokaryotes have membrane bound organelles
False
What do ribosomes do in a cell?
Ribosomes do protein assembly within a cell.
What does Cell transport do?
Cell transport regulates what enters, and leaves the cell, allowing cells to intake nutrients, and exhaust waste.
Three different solutions of osmosis
hypotonic, hypertonic, and isotonic
True or false
Photosynthesis only occurs in the presence of sunlight
True
What keeps all the organelles in a Eukaryote cell bound?
The cytoskeleton
The Rough ER makes ___ , while the smooth ER makes __ , and __
Rough ER: Proteins
Smooth ER: Lipids, and detoxifies
Passive transportation goes from an area of __ concentration, to __ concentration. While Active transportation goes from an area of __ concentration, to __ concentration.
Passive: high, low
Active: low, high
The difference between diffusion and osmosis
Diffusion is the general movement of any particles from high to low concentration, while osmosis is specifically the movement of water from high, to low water concentration across a semipermeable membrane
What does photosynthesis build, while cell respiration break it down?
Glucose
