Cell Theory
This is the basic unit of all organisms.
What are cells?
Of the two types of cells, this one has a nucleus and the term means "true" "nucleus/nut".
What is eukaryotic?
This jelly-like substance that holds the organelles in place and fills the empty space in the cell.
What is cytoplasm?
This macromolecule provides quick energy and is often "loaded" before intense physical activity.
What are carbohydrates?
These are the two main types of cell membrane transport.
What is passive transport and active transport?
Cells are never spontaneously generated, but instead come from this.
What is other existing cells?
Of the two types of cells, this one does not have a nucleus and the term means "before" "nucleus/nut".
What is prokaryotic?
This organelle is know as the "powerhouse of the cell" because it converts food energy into usable energy in the form of ATP.
What is the mitochondria?
This macromolecule contains the code for making every protein that an organism needs.
What is nucleic acids or DNA/RNA?
This term refers to a subtype of endocytosis and the roots mean "cell" "eating".
What is phagocytosis?
All cells whether prokaryotic or eukaryotic are surrounded by this.
What is a cell membrane?
These types of cells are always bacteria.
What is prokaryotic?
This cell structure is responsible for making protein AND also tell me why proteins are so important.
What is ribosomes and because they are workers and do or at least help with almost every cell activity?
This macromolecule is composed of amino acids which are either synthesized by the organism or obtained from ingestion of food and therefore are denoted as "essential" amino acids.
What are proteins/polypeptides?
This type of passive cell transport regulates blood pressure by moving water into and out of cells to get all solute molecules balanced.
What is osmosis?
These are the three components of the Cell Theory.
What is all organisms are made up of one of more cells, the cell is the basic unit of all organisms, and all cells come from exiting cells?
These types of cells can be found in fungi, protists, plants, and animals, but never bacteria.
What is eukaryotic?
These three organelles are only found in plants (animal cells do NOT have them).
What are cell wall, large central vacuole, and chloroplasts?
One type of this macromolecule forms the structure of every cell membrane for each of the 6 Kingdoms of living organisms.
What are lipids?
This type of active transport releases neurotransmitters from nervous system cells to relay sensory information.
What is exocytosis?
These four things are found in all cells.
What is a cell membrane, cytoplasm, ribosomes, and genetic material (DNA/RNA)?
These types of cells never have membrane bound organells.
What is prokaryotic cells?
This is the difference between the rough and smooth ER.
What is the Rough ER contains ribosomes where proteins are made and helps send proteins to their next stage AND Smooth ER had no ribosomes, but instead functions to make lipids and store calcium?
This type of reaction breaks down most polymers and literally means "water-splitting".
What is hydrolysis?
This type of passive transport results in carbon dioxide moving out of the cell on its own to maintain a balanced amount of the gas inside and outside the cell.
What is simple diffusion?
