Organelles
Organelle where DNA is stored.
Nucleus
Process where new cells come from existing cells.
Mitosis
Type of transport that requires energy.
Active transport
First phase of mitosis where chromosomes condense.
Prophase
Substances that can cause or promote cancer.
Carcinogens
Organelle that produces ATP.
Mitochondria
Type of cell that lacks a nucleus.
Prokaryote
Type of transport used for water.
Osmosis
Phase where chromosomes line up in the middle.
Metaphase
The structure that acts as a cell’s “whipping propeller" used to move the cell
Flagella
Organelle responsible for making proteins
Ribosome
Cell type found in multicellular organisms.
Eukaryote
When a cell takes in substances from the outside using energy.
Endocytosis
Phase of mitosis where chromosomes are pulled apart.
Anaphase
Type of tumor that spreads to other body parts.
Malignant
Sac-like structure that stores water, salts, and proteins.
Vacuole
Group of similar cells working together.
Tissue
Type of solution where water moves out of a cell, causing it to shrivel.
Hypertonic
Part of Interphase where DNA is replicated
S phase
Proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates play a role in the cell membrane making it _______________ ________________
selectively permeable
Organelle that modifies and packages proteins for transport.
Golgi apparatus
Group of different tissues working together for a function.
Organ
Transport type used for O₂ and CO₂.
Diffusion
Organelle critical for forming spindle fibers in cell division.
Centrioles
This type of feedback mechanism restores balance.
Negative feedback
