PROKARYOTE VS. EUKARYOTE
This type of cell lacks a nucleus.
What is a prokaryote?
This organelle is known as the powerhouse of the cell.
What is the mitochondrion?
This process requires energy to move substances against a concentration gradient.
What is active transport?
This term describes the movement of water in and out of a cell.
What is osmosis?
Plants use this process to convert sunlight into energy.
What is photosynthesis?
These cells have membrane-bound organelles.
What are eukaryotes?
The organelle responsible for protein synthesis.
What is the ribosome?
This type of transport does not require energy.
What is passive transport
A cell in a hypertonic solution will...
What will it lose water and shrink?
This gas is produced during photosynthesis.
What is oxygen?
Eukaryotic cells contain these structures.
What are unicellular organisms, like bacteria?
This organelle digests waste in the cell.
What is the lysosome?
This term describes the movement of water across a semi-permeable membrane.
What is osmosis?
This effect describes animal cells in freshwater.
What is cytolysis?
The primary pigment for capturing light in plants.
What is chlorophyll?
Name one example of a eukaryotic organism.
What are organelles?
This organelle is responsible for photosynthesis.
What is the chloroplast?
These proteins help substances pass through the membrane.
What are channel proteins?
This term refers to a type of solution that has the same concentration as the cell's interior.
What is isotonic?
During cellular respiration, this molecule is broken down for energy.
What is glucose?
Name one example of a eukaryotic organism.
What is a plant, animal, or fungi?
Name the organelle that contains the genetic material.
What is the nucleus?
This type of endocytosis involves the cell taking in solid particles.
What is phagocytosis?
Osmosis primarily occurs through this part of the cell.
What is the plasma membrane?
This cycle, part of photosynthesis, occurs in the stroma.
What is the Calvin cycle?
