What is the primary function of the nucleus in a cell?
Control Cell activities and store genetic information
Which type of transport does NOT require energy
Passive transport
What is the main purpose of the cell cycle?
Growth and Repair
What does Mr. Campbell Teach
Science
Which organelle is shown in the image below and is responsible for energy production in the cell?
Mitochondria
What does the cell membrane control?
The movement of substances into and out of the cell
Which phase is the longest phase of the cell cycle?
Interphase
Where does Mr.Campbell Live
Augusta, GA
or
Martinez
You observe a cell under a microscope with a large central vacuole. What type of cell is this most likely to be?
Plant Cell
A cell is placed in a solution with a higher concentration of solute than the cell's cytoplasm. What will most likely happen to the cell?
Water will leave the cell and the Cell will shrink
A student observes that a plant cell's nucleus is beginning to break down and the chromatin is condensing into visible chromosomes. Which phase of the cell cycle is this, and why is it significant for cell division?
Prophase; because the chromosomes are becoming visible and preparing for separation.
A red blood cell is placed in pure water. What is the most likely outcome for the cell, and why does this happen?
The cell will burst because of water entering the cell
If a cell has a high amount of mitochondria, what does this suggest about its function?
The Cell uses a lot of energy
Identify the type of transport and describe what is happening
Facilitated Diffusion: Larger molecules move through a transport protein following the concentration gradient.
A cell is observed under a microscope, and it is found that the chromosomes are not aligning properly at the metaphase plate during mitosis. What might be the consequence of this malfunction?
The cell may experience improper chromosome separation, leading to genetic mutations.
How many dogs does Mr. Campbell have? and give at least one of their names
Luna and Skylar
A scientist examines a newly discovered cell and finds that it lacks a nucleus but contains ribosomes and a cell membrane. What type of cell is this?
Prokaryotic Cell
What type of transport is shown when a white blood cell engulfs bacteria and other pathogens, what then happens to the bacteria inside white blood cells?
Endocytosis, and the lysosomes in the white blood cell break down the bacteria.
A mutation occurs in a cell that skipping the transition from G1 phase to G2 phase. What impact would this have on the cell cycle?
S phase will be skipped, DNA will not get doubled, and this means that the 2 daughter cells will not have a full set of DNA
A laboratory experiment is conducted to test the effects of different concentrations of salt solutions on animal cells. The results show that cells in a highly concentrated salt solution lose water and shrink.Explain why this happened. (use words like Hypertonic, Hypotonic)
The solution is hypertonic, causing water to leave the cell.
