About Organisms
This and That
100
IT HELPS THE CELL KEEP ITS SHAPE
What is the cytoskeleton?
100
THIS PROCESS ALLOWS MOLECULES WHICH COULD NOT NORMALLY PASS THROUGH THE CELL MEMBRANE TO PASS THROUGH SPECIAL PROTEIN CHANNELS
What is facilitated diffusion?
100
The cells of a multicellular organism develop into cell types playing different roles
What is specialization?
100
A group of organs that work together to perform a specific function
What is an organ system?
100
When the concentration of water and a solute are the same on both sides of the membrane
What is an isotonic solution?
200
Found only in plant cells, it makes food for the cell from sunlight and water
What is a chloroplast?
200
A FORM OF ACTIVE TRANSPORT THAT ENABLES TAKING MATERIALS INTO THE CELL
What is endocytosis?
200
IN AN ORGANISM CELLS HAVE THIS EITHER IN THEIR CELL MEMBRANES OR THEIR CYTOPLASM TO COMMUNICATE
What is a receptor?
200
Cells in large organisms communicate through these kinds of signals
What are chemical signals?
200
Passive transport does not use this
What is energy?
300
THE LIPID BILAYER CAN BE FOUND HERE
What is the cell membrane?
300
A type of endocytosis in which an extension of cytoplasm surrounds a particle and packages it within a food vacuole in order to take in food
What is phagocytosis?
300
A group of similar cells in an organism
What is tissue?
300
From least complex to most complex the levels of organization, the levels of organization in a multicellular organism
What are cells, tissue, organs, organ systems, organism?
300
A solution that is "above strength"
What is a hypertonic solution?
400
THESE ORGANELLES BREAK DOWN LIPIDS, CARBOHYDRATES, AND PROTEINS INTO SMALLER MOLECULES THAT CAN BE USED BY THE CELL
What are lysosomes?
400
A water channel protein embedded in the cell membrane that allows water to pass against the concentration gradient
What is an aquaporin?
400
Process in which larger molecules and even solid clumps of material are transported by movements of the cell membrane
What is bulk transport
400
Also know as a single cell organism
What is a unicellular organism?
400
The net movement of water out of or into a cell produces this force
What is osmotic pressure?
500
THIS ORGANELLE MODIFIES, SORTS, AND PACKAGES PROTEINS FROM THE ENDOPLASMIC RITICULUM FOR STORAGE IN THE CELL OR RELEASE OUTSIDE THE CELL
What is the Golgi apparatus?
500
A FORM OF ACTIVE CELL TRANSPORT THAT ALLOWS A CELL TO RELEASE SUBSTANCES FROM THE CELL
What is exocytosis?
500
Water will continue to move across a cell membrane until this is established
What is equilibrium?
500
In cellular communication, these are located either in the cytoplasm or embedded in the cell membrane
What are receptors?
500
A solution that is "below strength" compared to one on the other side of the membrane
What is a hypotonic solution?
