100

What is the layer around a cell called?

Cell Membrane

100

What is concentration?

How packed something is, how many particles/molecules per volume.

100

What does mitosis do?

Makes new cells

100

How many cells does mitosis make?

2

100

Why do we do mitosis?

To make more cells for growth and healing.
200

What is the "brain" of a cell? (Tells the cell what to do)

Nucleus

200

What does isotonic mean?

Same concentration

200

What does a cell do during metaphase?

Chromosomes line up down the middle

200

What is this a picture of?

metaphase

200

Which step is longest in the cell cycle?

Interphase

300

What fills the cell and holds the organelles in place?

Cytoplasm

300

What is the difference between hypertonic and hypotonic?

Hypertonic: high concentration of solutes

Hypotonic: low concentration of solutes

300

What does a cell do in telophase/cytokinesis?

Squeezes in the middle, making 2 new cells

300

Which step is this?

Telophase/Cytokinesis

300

What is one way cells get larger molecules in/out?

-Active transport

-Endo/exocytosis


400

What do ribosomes do?

Make proteins

400

What will happen to your cells if you go swimming in the ocean?

They will shrink (the salt will pull water out).

400

Which step is this?

Interphase

400

What happens in interphase?

The cell grows, copies its DNA, and does its job.

400

What's the difference between osmosis and diffusion?

Osmosis: water moves

Diffusion: other things move

500

What are three cell parts that both plants and animals have?

Ex. nucleus, cytoplasm, ribosomes, cell membrane, ER, golgi, vacuole...

500

Mia has a saltwater fish tank (ocean fish). Can she fill the tank with tap water? Why?

No. 

The fishes' cells are used to salt water. Tap water would be hypotonic, and cause their cells to fill with water.

500

What happens in prophase?

Chromosomes condense (wrap into X shapes), nucleus breaks down, cell prepares to divide.

500

Which step: chromosomes pull apart, organelles separate to each side of the cell

Anaphase

500

What does this part do?

-Packaging/transport
