What is the flagellum used for?

Movement

100

What does the cell wall do? 

Maintains shape and structure; lets some things through

100

What is the cilia used for?

Movement
100

What is homeostasis and why is it important?

Homeostasis is a cell maintaining internal balance; it's important because being out of homeostasis could damage or kill the cell

100

What kind of transport requires no energy from the cell?

Passive Transport

200

What kind of cell are bacteria?

Prokaryotic Cells

200

What kind of cells are plant cells?

Eukaryotic Cells

200

What kind of cells are animal cells?

Eukaryotic Cells

200

What is a colony?

Identical cells taking on different jobs to benefit the group as a whole
200

What kind of transport requires energy from the cell?

Active transport

300

What does the nucleoid do in bacteria?

Contains genetic material

300

What does the chloroplast do?

Converts light energy into chemical energy (photosynthesis)

300

What does the nucleus do?

Controls the actions of the cell and contains genetic material

300
What is a multicellular organism?
Different kinds of cells that have specific jobs that only they can do, which depend on each other to survive. 
300

Why does transport in cells happen?

There are different concentrations of solute inside and outside the cell, and transport works to make both sides have an equal concentration. 
400

What does the capsule do in bacteria?

Surrounds and protects the cell; keeps it from drying out
400

What does the rough ER do?

transports things, maintains cell shape, processes proteins

400

What does the smooth ER do?

Transports things, maintains shape, process fats and breaks down toxic substances

400

What is positive feedback?

A substance in a cellular process speeds the process up
400

Name one kind of passive transport

Diffusion, osmosis, facilitated diffusion

500

What is cytoplasm?

The "blood" of the cell; the liquid in which organelles and other things float around in. 

500

What does the central vacuole do?

Maintains turgor pressure (water pressure inside the cell); stores water, salts, sugars, and proteins 
500

What does the Golgi Apparatus do?

"post office" of the cell - packages substances into vesicles and sends them around 

500

What is negative feedback?

A substance produced by a cellular process slows or stops the process

500

What is one factor that determines whether a cell can be passively transported?

Particle size, particle shape, particle polarity, membrane composition
