What are the two kinds of cells and what is the main difference between the two?

What is prokaryotic and eukaryotic; Prokaryotic is more basic, no container for DNA, and has less "stuff" inside. Eukaryotic has lots of "stuff" inside, more complex, and has a container for the DNA.

100

Why are cells so small?

What is to increase surface area and volume.

100

Molecules/substances can only pass through the phospholipid bilayer if they are what 2 things?

What is small and not charged.

100

What are the two kinds of transport in the cell membrane?

What is active and passive transport.

100

What is the digestive enzyme in animal eukaryotic cells?

What is the lysosome

200

What is the name of the theory that once said that chloroplasts and mitochondria were once independant prokaryotes? What do these 2 structures do in cells (function)?

What is the Endosymbiotic Theory.

Chloroplasts: Photosynthesis

Mitochondria: Cellular respiration/ATP synthesis

200

What is at least 1 of the statements about cells theory?

What is cells are the most basic unit of life, cells come from other cells (reproduction), and all organisms are made from cells.

200

Which phrase does not describe one of the functions of the proteins of the plasma membrane?

a)Forming a channel through the membrane

b)Binding to a substance to carry it through the membrane

c)Acting as a receptor for substances external to the cell

d)Increasing the rate of a chemical reaction

e)All of the above are true

What is E; All of the above are true.

200

What are the kinds of passive transport and what are the kinds of active transport? (6 total)

Passive: diffusion, osmosis, facilitated diffusion

Active: active, endocytosis, exocytosis

200
What is depth of focus?

Depth of focus is the ability to see a thicker specimen in focus and being able to see its layers.

300

What are the 3 kinds of cell junctions and what is an example of each?

Tight, bladder

Anchoring, skin/stomach,uterus

Gap, cardiac muscle

300

What is the primary function of plasmodesmata in plant cells and what are they?

Plasmodesmata are small holes in the cell wall of a plant and they allow for the direct exchange of materials or substances between its own cell and surrounding ones.

300

All cells have these 4 things in common (structure wise), what are they?

What is a cell membrane, cytoplasm, DNA, and ribosomes.

300

What are the 3 "stages"/types of endocytosis in active transport; and what is the main function/thing?

What is phagocytosis (cell eating), pinocytosis (cell drinking), and receptor-mediated (specific molecules bind to receptors then enter a vessicle).

300

Glycoproteins and glycolipids are important for...

a)facilitated diffusion

b)active transport

c)cell to cell recognition

d)receptor mediated endocytosis

Cell to cell recognition

400

What provides a plant cell with shape and support? What provides an animal cell shape and support?

What is a cell wall; cytoskeleton.
400

What type of transport protein binds its passenger, changes shape, and releases the transported molecule on the other side?

a)Channel protein

b)Carrier protein

c)Aquaporin

d)Concentration gradient

What is B

400

What component of the fluid mosiac model primarily contributes to the selective permeability of the plasma membrane by forming a semi-permeable barrier?

a)Cholesterol molecules

b)Phospholipid bilayer

c)Peripheral proteins

d)Glycoproteins

What is b; Phospholipid bilayer

400
In osmosis there are 3 kinds of solutes; hypertonic, hypotonic, and isotonic. Simply describe each.

Hypertonic: higher concentration than solution; "stuff" goings into thing from dh2o.

Hypotonic: lower concentration, "stuff" goes out of thing and into dh20.

Isotonic: same concentration in everything, "stuff" constantly moves in and out.

400

Prokaryotic cells have 3 superficial structures that can easily tell them apart from eukarotic cells, what are they?

What is a flagella, capsule, and fimbriae (hairs).

500

What substance is primarily involved with osmosis?What is osmosis?

a)The diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane.

b)The active transport of solutes across a membrane.

c)The movement of solutes from an area of low concentration to high.


What is water; A.

-Rough and smooth ER

-Mitochondria

-Chloroplast

-Nucleolus

-Golgi apparatus

-Rough ER: protein synthesis

-Smooth ER: lipid synthesis

-Mitochondria: ATP synthesis/cellular respiration

-Chloroplast: photosynthesis
