Which organelle is this?

The mitochondria

100

What is a hypertonic solution?

A solution with more solute

100

What type of transport requires ATP? 

Active or Passive

Active transport requires ATP

100

What is the purpose of the cell membrane?

To let things in and out of the cell

Support

100

What kind of cells are these? 

Red blood cells (with some white blood cells)

200

What do eukaryotic cells (plant and animal cells) have than prokaryotic ones don't?

Membrane bound organelles
A distinct nucleus

200

What is the relationship between the inside and the outside of the cells? 

They are isotonic because the have the same amount of solute inside and out

200

What is endocytosis? What is exocytosis?

Endo (inside) when materials move into the cell

Exo (outside) when materials move out of the cell

200

What type of diffusion uses a protein to allow molecules to move across the cell membrane?

Facilitated diffusion! The protein facilitates molecule movement

200

What happens when a red blood cell is in a hypotonic solution?

It will lyse and die due to the amount of extracellular fluid flowing in to dilute its solutes :(

300

Name an organelle that is in a plant cell, but absent or not as prominent in an animal cell?

Vacuole (not as prominent)

Chloroplast

Cell Wall

300

Label the cells isotonic, hypertonic or hypotonic.

Hypertonic, isotonic, hypotonic

300

What is the purpose of diffusion?

To equalize the concentration inside and outside of the cell by moving solutes 

300

Can charged molecules move through the cell membrane freely?

No!

300

What is the purpose of this type of cell?

Nerve tissue - To send and receive messages throughout the body as electrical signals.

400

What organelle is responsible for packaging and sending proteins and lipids into vesicles for delivery to targeted destinations?

The Golgi Apparatus/Golgi Complex

400

In a 0% solution, is the potato core hypertonic, isotonic or hypotonic to the solution?

Hypertonic, 0% solution has no salt

400

How does osmosis work?

Fluid moves across membranes to equalize the concentration inside and outside of the cell

400

Which part of the phospholipid likes the water, the head or the tail?

The hydrophilic head of the phospholipid comes into contact with water

400

You had carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and nucleic acids for dinner. What organelle will be ready to break them down in digestion?

Lysosomes

500

What does the chloroplast store? What does the mitochondria release?

The mitochondria releases ATP

The chloroplast stores glucose


500

What is happening to the elodea cells in the 5% salt solution?

The environment is hypertonic so water is escaping the hypotonic elodea cells

500

What happens step by step in the endomembrane system?

500

What are 2 of the materials found on the cell membrane?

Proteins, Carbohydrates, Cholesterol

500

Organize the following from largest scale to smallest scale: organ, tissue, cell, organ systems

organ systems < organ < tissue < cell
