Cell Organelles
This organelle produces energy, and is colloquially known as the "powerhouse of the cell".
What is the Mitochondria?
This is the formal name for the process of cell division.
What is Mitosis?
Movement from a high concentration to a low concentration doesn't require any energy, and is known as this.
What is diffusion?
What is cancer?
This man was the first person to describe cells, by looking at cork under a microscope.
Who is Robert Hooke?
This organelle is where all of the cell's genetic material is stored.
What is the Nucleus?
In this the first phase of Mitosis, the nucleus condenses down into chromosomes, and the mitotic spindle begins to appear.
What is Prophase?
Particles that move from high to low, via the help of a protein channel are using this type of movement.
What is facilitated Diffusion?
What is the S stage?
The cell membrane is made out two layers of fats, also known as this.
What is the phospholipid bilayer?
This organelle is only found in plant cells and is green in color.
What is the chloroplast?
This step takes place after Mitosis is over, and describes the cleaving of the two new cells.
What is cytokinesis?
What is Active Transport?
This protein regulates mitosis, and you can artificially cause a cell to begin mitosis by injecting it with it.
What is Cyclin?
This measurement dictates how quickly cells can move materials in and out.
What is Surface Area?
This organelle is found outside the nucleus, and has a rough half and a smooth half.
What is the Endoplasmic Reticulum?
Chromosomes are two of these, bound together by a centromere.
What are Sister Chromatids?
When a water moves into a cell, causing it to expand and eventually explode, the solution it is in is known as what?
What is Hypotonic?
What is G2?
These simply types of cell are very simply, and lack most organelles.
What are Prokaryotic Cells?
This organelle serves as the clean up crew of the cell, breaking down and digesting trash and dead organelles around the cell.
What is the lysosome?
What is DNA replication?
Small pockets forming along the membrane of the cell to bring in water is a form endocytosis, and is known as this.
What is pinocytosis?
This is the longest phase of the cell cycle, and describes the time in between cell division.
What is Interphase?
One of two reasons cells divide is because of the Surface Area/Volume ratio, this is the other reason.
What is DNA Overload?
