cell parts
gel-like structure provides the environment for other organelles
cytoplasm
this organelle releases energy
mitochondria
what are 2 of the 3 types of passive transport?
osmosis / diffusion / facilitated diffusion
the organ where sugar is absorbed into the blood
small intestine
the smallest units that carry out activities of life
cell
proteins are made in this structure
ribosomes
these 3 materials are used in the process of photosynthesis
carbon dioxide / water / sunlight
how do molecules move during passive transport? From where to where?
from high to low concentration
oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged here
alveoli
this material contains the genetic blueprints inside the cell
chromosomes / DNA
transportation system that moves materials around the cell
endoplasmic reticulum
pigment in the chloroplast that enables plants to absorb sunlight
chlorophyll
this word means a membrane that only allows some things to pass through it
selectively permeable
the part of the body that filters out the waste from cells
kidney
cells were not discovered until the 1600's for this reason.
microscopes were not complex enough
This allows photosynthesis to occur
chloroplast
in what cell part does respiration occur?
mitochondria
how much energy is used during passive transport?
none
name 2 specific chemical reactions that occur in living organisms
photosynthesis / cellular respiration / fermentation
cell division with pairs of chromosomes is called what?
mitosis
this organelle helps clean up the cell
lysosome
the process of fermentation lacks what material in making energy?
oxygen
if I put a gummy bear in a glass of water, what will happen to it?
it will swell
what is the type of cell division would occur in a fungus?
mitosis
what is a group of tissues working together to perform a job?
organ
