Cell Metabolism
The structure where cellular respiration takes place.
What are mitochondria?
The basic unit that makes up every living organism.
What is a cell?
The structure that forms a cell membrane.
What is a phospholipid bilayer?
Picture 1 is:
Ribosome
The movement of water molecules across a semipermeable membrane without the input of energy.
What is osmosis?
The sum total of ALL the chemical reactions that occur in our body.
What is metabolism?
The powerhouse of the cell that makes ATP.
What are mitochondria?
The main components of a phospholipid.
What are a phosphate head AND two fatty acid tails?
Picture 2 is:
Vacuole
The movement of molecules from a high concentration to a low concentration without the use of energy.
What is diffusion?
The three main steps of cellular respiration.
What are glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation?
A structure that synthesizes proteins in the cell.
What is a ribosome?
The phosphate head is ______. This means that it loves ______.
hydrophilic; water
Picture 3 is:
Channel Protein
The use of transport molecules and ATP to move molecules from a low solute concentration to a high solute concentration.
The process of moving a phosphate group form one molecule to another.
What is phosphorylation?
The sodium-potassium ATP pump moves three _____ ions out of the cell for every two _____ ions that move into the cell.
sodium; potassium
The two fatty acid tails are ______. This means that they love ______.
hydrophobic; fats/lipids
Picture 4 is:
Nucleolus
Diffusion of molecules from a high concentration to a low concentration with the use of transport proteins, BUT without the use of energy.
What is facilitated diffusion?
A chemical reaction that involves the gaining of electrons.
What is reduction?
A structure within the cell that packages protein molecules for transport and secretion.
What is a Golgi apparatus?
In regards to permeability, the cell membrane is ______.
semipermeable
Picture 5 is:
Chloroplast
A mode of vesicular transport in which extracellular molecules bind to receptors on the plasma membrane, the plasma membrane sinks in and forms a clathrin-coated vesicle, and the vesicle is taken-up by the cell.
What is pinocytosis? What is cell-drinking? What is receptor-mediated endocytosis?
