Cell Organelles
This organelle is often called the "powerhouse of the cell" because it generates most of the cell's supply of ATP.
What are the mitochondria?
This type of transport travels from low to high concentration, goes against the concentration gradient, and requires enegry.
What is active Transport
What inputs are necessary for plants to produce the sugar they need?
What is...Water and carbon dioxide in the presence of sunlight.
This organelle is responsible for producing most of the ATP during aerobic cellular respiration.
What is the mitochondrion?
These cells do not have a nucleus and are generally smaller and simpler than other cells.
What are prokaryotic cells?
This organelle is a network of flattened, membrane-bound sacs that modifies, sorts, and packages proteins and lipids for transport.
What is the golgi body?
This type of transport includes tonicities: hypotonic, hypertonic, and isotonic
What is Osmosis?
The products of photosynthesis are _________________ and ________________ and the process happens in the ________________________(organelle).
What is Glucose and Oxygen
What is Chloroplast?
This molecule is the main energy source that cells break down during cellular respiration.
What is glucose?
Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells contain these tiny structures that are responsible for making proteins.
What are ribosomes?
This organelle contains digestive enzymes and is responsible for breaking down worn-out cell parts, macromolecules, and even invading bacteria.
What is the lysosome?
A plant cell is placed in a solution that causes water to leave the cell. Which combination of structures would work together to help the cell maintain its shape while water is lost?
a. Cell membrane and cell wall
b. Mitochondria and chloroplast
c. Ribosomes and Lysosomes
d. Golgi apparatus and Nucleus
What is a cell membrane and cell wall?
Describe how light proximity affects the rate of photosynthesis.
The closer to light the faster the rate of photosynthesis. The farther away the less sugar is produced.
These two substances are the main reactants needed for aerobic cellular respiration.
What are glucose and oxygen?
A student observes a cell containing DNA, ribosomes, cytoplasm, and a cell membrane, but no membrane-bound organelles. This type of cell is most likely this.
What is a prokaryotic cell?
This organelle is the site of protein synthesis and can be found either free-floating in the cytoplasm or bound to the rough endoplasmic reticulum.
What is the ribosome?
This solution is in equilibrium. Water moves in and out of the cell at the same rate.
What is an isotonic solution?
Where does the Calvin cycle occur and what product is produced?
Glucose and Stoma
This stage of cellular respiration occurs in the cytoplasm, breaks glucose into two smaller molecules, and produces a small amount of ATP.
What is glycolysis?
Bacteria belong to this cell type, while plants, animals, fungi, and protists belong to this other cell type.
What are prokaryotes and eukaryotes?
This structure is a flexible bilayer of phospholipids with embedded proteins that regulates what enters and exits through selective permeability.
What is the cell membrane?
When a person is in a hospital, they never receive 100% pure water in their veins. This is because 100% water would cause their cells to ____________.
What is Burst or Swell.
In the Thylakoid membrane, _______________ is split and _______________ is released as a product.
Water; Oxygen
During intense exercise, muscle cells may not receive enough oxygen to meet their energy demands. This process allows glycolysis to continue producing ATP without oxygen.
What is lactic acid fermentation?
A scientist discovers a cell with circular DNA, ribosomes, a cell membrane, and a cell wall. Explain two pieces of evidence that support classifying this organism as a prokaryote rather than a eukaryote.
What are the absence of a nucleus/membrane-bound organelles and the presence of circular DNA?
