DNA Replication
Cell division in eukaryotic cells
Mitosis
Carry out the aerobic respiration of all eukaryotic cells
Mitochondrion
The phospholipids form a bilayer with tails inside and heads out
Phospholipid bilayer
Packing materials into a vesicle for transport into a cell
Endocytosis
It organizes cellular structures and activities, anchoring many organelles.
Cytoskeleton
Surrounded by a double membrane or nuclear envelope, Contains most of the DNA
Nucleus
Four fused ring structure that is largely nonpolar, impacting permeability.
Cholesterol
Provides surfaces for the synthesis of proteins, glycoproteins, carbohydrates and lipids
The Endoplasmic Reticulum
Cell division in prokaryotic cells
Binary fission
Site of photosynthesis – the conversion of light energy into chemical energy
Chloroplast
Substances diffuse down their concentration gradients from high concentration to low.
Passive transport (diffusion)
Collects, packages, and distributes molecules from ER.
Golgi apparatus
The DNA fragments added to the lagging (5' to 3') strand during replication
Okazaki Fragments
The way that mitochondrion and chloroplasts become part of eukaryotic cells
Endosymbiosis
Transport across a membrane that requires ATP or another energy source
Active transport
Break down material ingested by endocytosis or recycle old organelles.
Lysosomes
