Cell Transport
A type of transport that goes with the concentration gradient and does not require energy.
Passive Transport
What are the 3 main reasons that we need cell division?
What organelle aids in mitosis?
Cytoskeleton
Why is DNA important in cells?
It directs the function or the purpose of the cell.
What organelle is known as the powerhouse of the cell?
Mitochondria
The diffusion of water through a cell membrane.
Osmosis
The process of mitosis and cytokinesis produce 2 what?
Identical daughter cells
In what phase does the nuclear envelope and the nucleolus begin to dissolve?
Prophase
What is the difference between telophase and cytokinesis?
Telophase is the separation of the nuclei and cytokinesis is the separation of cytoplasm.
What organelle is responsible for storing the genetic material of a cell?
Nucleus
A form of passive transport that uses channel proteins.
Facilitated Diffusion
If a parent cell has 40 chromosomes, how many will the daughter have?
40
When the chromosomes are aligned in the center, we know the cell is in what phase?
Metaphase
Prokaryotes do not use mitosis, they go through a process called what?
Binary Fission
What 2 organelles are only found in plant cells?
Chloroplasts and Cell Wall
Process by which a cell takes in material by forming a vacuole around it.
Endocytosis
The DNA replicates.
Phase when sister chromatids are separated.
Anaphase
G1, S, and G2 make up what phase?
Interphase
What is the function of a vacuole?
Store and manage waste
A type of active transport that specializes in taking in fluids from outside the cell.
Pinocytosis
In what stage of the cell cycle do the nucleus and its contents divide?
Mitosis
In what phase is the spindle formed?
Prophase
What phase is basically the exact opposite of prophase?
Telophase
What are the 4 types of eukaryotic cells?
Protists, plants, animals, fungi
