Cell Theory
What is the smallest unit of life?
Cells
These Molecules are made up of sugar and are used for easy energy:
Carbohydrates
This is where the DNA is found
Nucleus
What word describes moving something from one place to another?
Transport
When you have two sides that have equal amounts of something, what is that called?
Equilibrium
What is the most important molecule that a cell needs in order to live?
Water
These molecules do not dissolve in water
Lipids (Fats)
This covers and protects both plant and animal cells
Cell Membrane
This type of transport is done without any energy from the cell:
Passive Transport
This type of transport needs energy from the cell to happen
Active Transport
What is the name of a cell's genetic code?
DNA
These are made up of amino acid chains and can be found in things like hair
Proteins
This is found only in plant cells and it gives the cell structure
Cell Wall
This form of transport involves moving Water through the Cell Membrane
Osmosis
This form of passive transport happens when a place with a lot of molecules naturally move to a place where there are few molecules.
Diffusion
What tool do you need to look at cells?
What are the two things that cells need to make energy?
Sugar and Oxygen
This is known as the Powerhouse of the Cell
Mitochondrea
This type of Passive Transport happens when proteins help move molecules inside the cell
Facilitated Transport
Vacuole
Where do cells come from?
Preexisting Cells
Cellular Respiration
This organelle moves around Proteins and Fats
Endoplasmic Reticulum
This form of Active transport helps with the movement of molecules INTO the Cell
Endocytosis
When your body doesn't have enough oxygen to make energy, the cells will do this:
Fermentation
