Active/Passive Processes
The Cell Membrane
The Cell Cycle
100
The sperm is the only example of this type of organelle in the human body. Used for movement.
What is Flagella.
100
This organelle packages, modifies, and segregates proteins for secretion from the cell.
What is The Golgi Apparatus.
100
This type of Process requires energy in the form of ATP to move substances across the cell membrane into or out of the cell.
What is Active Process.
100
A characteristic of cell/plasma membrane that means it allows some substances to pass while excluding other.
What is Selective Permeability.
100
The cell cycle begins with this phase which in itself has 3 phases, G1, S, and G2.
What is Interphase
200
This organelle is responsible for transmitting genetic information and providing instructions for protein synthesis. It is considered to be the control center of the cell.
What is The Nucleus.
200
This type of Passive Process involves the movement of substances from high concentration to low concentration and does not require energy.
What is Diffusion
200
These substances can be found throughout the cell membrane and assist in bringing substances into or out of the cell. Can be in the form of a carrier that changes shape or a channel.
What are Proteins.
200
The cell membrane is composed primarily of this structure.
What is Phospholipid
200
The beginning cell is referred to as the "parent cell" while the two resulting cells are referred to as the _______________.
What are daughter cells.
300
This organelle can be found throughout the cell and on the rough endoplasmic reticulum. It is also a site for protein synthesis.
What is/are Ribosome(s).
300
Cells are the basic unit of life. All living things are made up of cells. All cells come from pre-exisiting cells.
What is The Cell Theory
300
This type of solution outside of the cell causes the water in the cell to rush out of the cell into the solution ultimately causing the cell to shrink.
What is Hypertonic Solution.
300
The heads of the Phospholipids are made of this.
What is Phosphate and Glyercol.
300
There are __________ stages in Mitosis.
What are four.
400
These organelles are sites of intracellular digestion. Sometimes referred to as the "Garbage Disposal" of the cell.
What are Lysosomes.
400
Separates the nucleoplasm (inside of the nucleus) from the cytoplasm (inside of the cell). Surrounds the Nucleus.
What is The Nuclear Envelope
400
In this type of Active Process a vesicle containing substances that need to leave the cell, attached to the cell membrane of the cell, opens up, and releases the contents into the extracellular fluid.
What is Exocytosis.
400
The tails of the Phospholipids are made of this.
What are Fatty Acids.
400
The term used to describe the division of the cytoplasm.
What is Cytokinesis.
500
During mitosis this organelle forms a spindle that connects to chromosomes in the middle of the cell, preparing to pull them apart.
What are centrioles.
500
This word refers to the part of the plasma membrane that "loves water".
What is Hydrophillic.
500
The diffusion of a solvent such as water through a selectively permeable membrane is referred to as this.
What is Osmosis.
500
The term used to describe the double layer of phospholipids that make up the cell membrane.
What is Bi-layer
500
In this phase of mitosis the sister chromatids separate into individual chromosomes and are moved apart.
What is Anaphase.
