This type of observation is done using a microscope to view small-scale structures. A staining technique can be used to provide contrast
What is Microscope?
100
This cell shape is found in nerve cells.
What is Irregular shaped?
100
The plasma membrane is made up of...
What are phospholipids (phospholipid bilayer)?
100
What type of cellular energy does active transport require?
What is ATP?
100
Movement of solutes
What is diffusion?
200
This type of microscope is used to produce a 2 dimensional image. The glass lenses focus and magnify the imagae as the light passes through the speciman.
What is Light Microscope?
200
This type of cell shape can be found in kidney tubule cells.
What is cube shaped (cuboidal)?
200
This function of the plasma membrane regulates entry and exit of ions, nutrients, and waste molecules through the plasma membrane.
What is Selective Permeability?
200
This type of active transport uses the energy source from ATP?
What is Primary active transport?
200
Movement of water across a selectively permeable membrane.
What is osmosis?
300
This type of microscope uses beams of electrons to illuminate the speciman and is a greater magnification than a light microscope. This allows the viewer to better see the details.
What is Electron Microscope (EM)?
300
This cell type is found in the intestinal lining.
What is Column-shaped (columnar)?
300
This function of the plasma membrane uses receptors that recognize and respond to molecular signals.
What is communication?
300
This type of active transport uses an energy source from the movement of another substance.
What is secondary active transport?
300
This type of transport requires a transport protein.
What is Facilitated diffusion?
400
This type of microscope directs an electron beam through thin-cut sections and produces 2 dimensional images.
What is Transmission electron microscope (TEM)?
400
This type of cell is gound in skeletal muscle.
What is Cylindrical?
400
This function of the plasma membrane establishes a flexible boundary, protects cellular contents, and supports cell structure.
What is physical barrier?
400
Vesicular contents released from the cell.
What is Exocytosis?
400
Type of transport where an ion moves through a channel.
What is Channel mediated diffusion?
500
This type of microscope directs an electron beam across the surface of a speciman and generates a 3 dimensional image.
What is Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM)?
500
This type of cell is found in red blood cells.
What are biconcave discs?
500
This function of the plasma membrane establishes and maintains an electrical charge difference across the plasma membrane.
What is Electrochemical gradient?
500
Material brought into the cell as a vesicle is formed.
What is Endocytosis?
500
When small polar molecules are moved by a carrier protein.
