What is the function of the Vacuole?

Storage of materials.

100

What is active transport?

moving from a low concentration to a high concentration while using energy.

100

which image below shows passive transport and how do you know?

the first image because we move from a low concentration to a high concentration without using energy. 

100

What is one difference between active and passive transport. 

Active - uses energy low -> high

Passive - no energy High -> low

What is endosymbiotic theory?

Eukaryotes came from prokaryotes. This happened  when a larger prokaryote engulfed a smaller one and lived in harmony

200

What is a difference between prokaryotes and eukaryotes.

prokaryotes - no nucleus, no organelles, single celled 

eukaryotes - multicellular, has organelles, has a nucleus

200

What is osmosis.

The process of moving water through a semipermeable membrane to reach equal amounts of solutes and free water. 

200

What is the type of transport below? How do you know?

facilitated diffusion - no energy, uses protein, low - high

200

What is the name of this type of transport and how do you know. 

Sodium-potassium pump/ion pump - moves sodium and potassium while using energy. 

200

What is the path of a protein? 

endoplasmic reticulum -> vesicle -> Golgi body -> vesicle -> cell membrane

ER -> vesicle -> golgi body -> lysosome 

ER -> vesicle -> golgi body -> vacuole

300

Name a difference between an animal cell and a plant cell. 

animal cell - no cell wall, no chloroplast, small vacuole

plant cell - cell wall, chloroplast, large vacuole

300

what happens when a cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, what about a hypertonic one? 

hypotonic -explode

hypertonic -shrink

300

Complete this problem on tonicity.

90

80

yes

in

swell

hypotonic

300

what is the difference between endocytosis and exocytosis? 

endocytosis is the process of taking large amounts of materials into the cell while using energy while exocytosis is moving large of materials out of the cell using energy. 

300

why is the cell membrane called the fluid mosaic model?

The cell membrane is fluid and flexible proteins and phospholipids can move and is not stationary. 

400

Name two structures and their functions of the cell membrane. 

glycoprotein - cell signaling

phospholipids - let small non-polar objects into the cell

peripheral protein - maintains shape of the cell

integral proteins - let larger polar molecules into the cell. 

cholesterol - helps the membrane be fluid and flexible 

400

A cell is placed in a solution that is 10% glucose. The cell itself has 5% glucose. What solution is the cell placed in and why? 

Hypertonic, water moves out of the cell to reach equilibrium. 

400

What is turgor pressure? how is it related to passive transport? 

Turgor pressure is the amount of water pressure on the cell wall. 

Osmosis is a type of transport where water moves in or out of the cell to reach equilibrium. 

400

Name this type of transport and describe it. 

Carrier proteins - it allows specific ions in or out of the cell one at a time. 

400

what are the levels of organization in the human body?

500

Label each of these organelles and describe what they do.

Cillia - movement and gathering food

flagella - movement

500

What happens when a salt water fish is placed in fresh water?

There is more salt inside the fish than in the water so water moves in to create equilibrium. This causes the fish to swell. 

500

What is the name of the protein that water travels through during osmosis. 

aquaporin

500

What kind of molecules pass through proteins for transportation in or out of the cell and why. 

Polar molecules or large molecules because the fatty acid tails are non-polar and non-polar likes non-polar and polar likes polar.

A 3-month-old infant is diagnosed with Diamond-Blackfan Anemia (DBA), a rare congenital disorder characterized by profound red blood cell deficiency and physical abnormalities. Genetic testing reveals a mutation in the RPS19 gene, which compromises cellular protein synthesis. Which of the following cellular organelles is primarily affected by this disease?

ribosome
