Cell Structure
What is the cell membrane?
These two processes are considered opposites of each other involving the same substances.
What are cellular respiration and photosynthesis?
An organism uses this type of energy to move a molecule from low to high concentration or when molecules are too large to pass through the membrane.
What is active transport?
Cells formed for sexual reproduction and can be either a male or female reproductive cell.
What are gametes?
A unicellular organism that splits into two identical cells.
What is binary fission?
The chromosomes meet down the middle.
What is metaphase?
The organelle that is considered the powerhouse of the cell.
What is the mitochondrian?
Yeast perform this function when bread dough rises.
What is fermentation?
What is passive transport?
The two halves of a duplicated chromosome.
What are chromatids?
What is vegetative reproduction?
The cell grows and duplicates its DNA.
What is interphase?
Proteins are made here.
What are ribosomes?
This type of transport does not require energy to take place.
What is passive transport?
Once cycle of mitosis produces this many cells.
What is two?
The type of asexual reproduction in which a projection of a parent organism stays attached to or breaks away to form a new organism.
What is budding?
The nucleus divides into two nuclei.
What is mitosis?
This type of transport requires cells to use energy.
What is active transport?
One cycle of meiosis produces this many cells.
What is four?
The cell membrane pinches the cytoplasm into two cells.
What is cytokinesis?
An ion moves through the cell membrane using the channel of an embedded protein.
What is facilitated diffusion?
The three ways mitosis and meiosis are similar.
What are both are cell division, both produce daughter cells, and both involve phases?
The chromosomes uncoil; two new nuclear membranes form
What is telophase?
These are three examples of passive transport.
What are diffusion, osmosis, and facilitated diffusion?
The three ways to explain mitosis.
What involves only reporductive cells for making a new organism; divides twice in eight phases; and produces four unique daughter cells each with only one set of chromosomes?
The chromosomes separate at the centromeres.
What is anaphase?
The four ways to explain mitosis.
What involves all body cells for growth, development, and repair; divides once in four phases; produces two identical daughter cells with two complete sets of chromosomes; and continues for the life of the organism?
DNA forms X-shaped chromosomes and spindle fibers appear.
What is prophase?
