The study of cells
The ability to release energy from the breakdown of food molecules
Respiration
The ability to maintain internal stability, also known as regulation
Homeostasis
Their ability to take in nutrients , this includes absorption, which is the ability to bring dissolve materials into the cell
Ingestion
The ability to distribute or circulate molecules from one part of a cell to another
Transport
The ability to break food or nutrients down in the simpler form by hydrolysis or with the help of enzymes, so it can be utilized
Digestion
Their ability to combine simple compounds into complex molecules
Synthesis/biosynthesis
The ability to release biosynthesized substances
Secretion
The ability to remove nonsoluble, and digested waste from the cell
Egestion
Their ability to produce more cells
Reproduction
The ability to remove soluble metabolic waste from the cell?
Excretion
A tiny cellular structure that carries out specific function necessary for the cell to survive
Organelle
Is a jelly like fluid in which the organelles are suspended
Cytoplasm
Non membrane bound, organelles, responsible for protein synthesis
Ribosomes
This semi permeable membrane between the cell contents and cells surroundings
Plasma membrane
Double membrane bound, organelles in which neutrons are converted to energy
Mitochondria
Plastids containing the green pigments, chlorophyll, used in photosynthesis
Chloroplasts
A network of fiber that holds the sell together, helps the cell to keep its shape, and aids and movement
Cytoskeleton
A model proposing that the plasma membrane is composed of mosaic of components that are free to move fluidly within plane of the membrane
Fluid mosaic model
A membrane that allows some molecules to pass through, but there’s not allow other molecules to pass through
Semipermeable membrane
A lipid in which one of the fatty acid molecules has been replaced by a molecule that contains a hydrophilic phosphate group
Phospholipid
Movement of molecules through the plasma membrane without the need for energy input
Passive transport
The random motion of molecules from an area of high concentration area of low concentration until it’s concentration becomes equal throughout the area
Diffusion
Movement of molecules through the plasma membrane aided by a process that requires energy input
Active transport
Diffusion of water through a semi permeable membrane from an area of high water concentration to low water concentration
Osmosis
