Cell Cycle/Mitosis
100
This technology was essential for the development of the cell theory.
What is a microscope?
100
This cell component can be compared to the bones, muscles and ligaments of a cell since it supports structures and give them the machinery for various types of cell movement.
What is the cytoskeleton?
100
The largest percentage of molecules that make up the cell membrane are these 3 molecules.
What are phospholipids, cholesterol, and proteins?
100
This is the diffusion of water across a membrane.
What is osmosis?
100
The longest phase of a mature muscle cell's life cycle is this.
What is interphase?
200
In comparing the cell to a factory and that every factory has a product, the product of a cell would be this.
What is protein?
200
Organelles that are membrane bound include the endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, peroxisomes and these.
What are mitochondria?
200
This distinct feature of the cell membrane only allows certain molecules to enter/exit.
What is selectively permeable?
200
This type of active transport moves substances outside of a cell.
What is exocytosis?
200
This organelle participates most directly in mitosis.
What are centrioles?
300
Unlike eukaryotes, prokaryotes do not have this.
What is a membrane-bound nucleus?
300
You would find a lot of tight junctions in the cells located in this part of the body. Their structure complements their function by keeping digestive enzymes from seeping into the bloodstream.
What the GI/digestive tract?
300
These substances diffuse directly through the lipid bilayer of the cell membrane.
What are oxygen and carbon dioxide?
300
This type of transportation moves with the concentration gradient, does not require energy and requires carrier molecules.
What is facilitated diffusion?
300
This is the phase of mitosis in which the chromosomal centromeres split and chromosomes migrate to opposite ends of the cell.
What is anaphase?
400
These are the 3 key points of the cell theory.
What is: all organisms are made of cells, cells are the smallest unit of living things, and cells arise only from pre-exisitng cells?
400
You would find a lot of this organelle in liver cells since its functions include lipid metabolism and cholesterol synthesis.
What is smooth ER?
400
The ____ portion of the cell membrane functions as a barrier while the ____ portion determines specific functions, including pumps, receptors, adhesion, etc.
What is lipid and protein?
400
Pinocytosis is a type of this active transport process.
What is endocytosis?
400
Interphase of the cell cycle consists of these 3 stages.
What are G1, S-phase (synthesis) and G2?
500
He discovered that all plants were made of cells, which contributed to the development of the cell theory.
Who is Matthias Schleiden?
500
These organelles might function during or even after apoptosis of the cell that contains them.
What are lysosomes?
500
The cell membrane is composed of a phospholipid bilayer. The heads of the phospholipids are _____________ and the tails of the phospholipids are _______________.
What are hydrophilic and hydrophobic?
500
Crenation or cell shrinking occurs when a cell is placed in this type of solution.
What is hypertonic solution?
500
By the process of mitosis in a human cell, __________ daughter cells are produced, each of which has __________ chromosomes.
What are 2 and 46?
