What's inside?
This organelle structure contains a nuclear envelope, RNA, histone proteins and is responsible for cell division
What is the THE NUCLEUS
Cell–cell communication in which the signal molecule remains bound to the signaling cell and only influences cells that physically contact it
What is CONTACT-DEPENDENT SIGNALING
The movement of water across a membrane from an area of high concentration to lower concentration
What is OSMOSIS
This phase is when the chromosomes line up along the equatorial plate
What is METAPHASE
This results from decreased workload, disuse, poor nutrition and/or nervous stimulation
What is ATROPHY
This organelle structure can be free or attached and functions in protein synthesis
What is the RIBOSOME
This type of cell signaling the cell secretes signal molecules that act on itself or on other adjacent cells of the same type.
What is AUTOCRINE SIGNALING
This type of cellular transport does not require ATP
What is PASSIVE TRANSPORT
DNA replicates during this phase of the cell cycle
What is INTERPHASE
Abnormal changes in the size, shape, and organization of mature cells. Not a true cellular adaptation
What is DYSPLASIA
The organelle structure has a network of tubular channels, with ribosomes studding the outside and is the site of protein synthesis
What is the ROUGH ER
Short-range cell-cell communication via secreted signal molecules that act on adjacent cells
What is PARACRINE SIGNALING
The movement of small nonpolar molecules from an area of higher concentration to lower concentration.
What is SIMPLE PASSIVE DIFFUSION
What are the phases of mitosis
What is Prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase
this cellular adaptation is caused by increased work demand or hormones
This sac-like organelle functions in intracellular digestion
What is the LYSOSOME
These are specialized cell-cell junctions that can form between closely apposed plasma membranes and can communicate directly with the joined cells
What are GAP JUNCTIONS
In mediated transport systems, the movement of two molecules in opposite directions
What is ANTIPORT
This is also known as cytoplasmic division
What is CYTOKINESIS
This cellular adaptions demonstrates the reversible replacement of one mature cell by another less mature cell
What is METAPLASIA
This organelle is known as the “powerhouse” of the cell
What is the mitochondria
Involves specialized endocrine cells to secrete chemicals released by one set of cells and travel through the blood stream to produce a response on another set of cells
What is HORMONAL SIGNALING
These are two types of endocytosis
What is PINOCYTOSIS AND PHAGOCYTOSIS
This phase of mitosis begins when centromeres split and pull sister chromatids to opposite ends of the cell
What is ANAPHASE
This cellular adaptation is caused by increased rate of cellular division
What is HYPERPLASIA
