46
Number of chromosomes in a human cell
Cell membrane
Separates inside of cell from external environment, and controls material flow
Cell Wall
Tough, rigid structure lying just outside plant cell membrane. Provides support.
Centrioles
Help in mitosis by moving chromosomes
Chloroplast
Trap energy from sun to make glucose, which is broken down in mitochondria to power a plant cell
Cytoplasm
Includes organelles, and other life-supporting materials such as sugar and water. Contained in cell membrane.
Cytoskeleton
Filaments and tubules that provide a framework for the cell, helping maintain structure and providing "tracks" for organelles and vesicles.
Endoplasmic Reticulum
Network of membrane-covered channels that transport materials, made in cell. Is connected to nucleus
Golgi apparatus/bodies
Sorts and packages proteins and other molecules for transport out of cell
Mitochondria
Where energy is released from glucose to fuel cell activities
Nucleolus
Makes ribosomes which help make proteins
Nucleus
Controls cell activities
Ribosome
Helps produce proteins which make up much of a cell's structure, and required for vital activities. Some float in cytoplasm and others are attached to the ER
Vacuole
Contain water and materials used to store or transport small molecules
Vacuole
Plant cells contain one large ______, while animal cells contain many small ones.
Cell Wall, Chloroplast
Organelles only found in plant cells
Nuclear pores
Openings in nuclear membrane
Ribosomes
Rough ER has _______ around it
cells, basic unit, cells
Cell theory:
All living things composed of one or more ______,
Cell is the _________ _____ of life,
All cells come from pre-existing _____
Plant cell
Type of cell
Animal cell
Type of cell
DNA
Genetic information in nucleus
Endoplasmic Reticulum
Mailing system of the cell
Growth, repair, reproduction
3 reasons cells divide
Cell cycle
All stages of cell's life
Interphase
Growth of cell cycle
Mitosis and Cytokinesis
Division part of cell cycle
Interphase
Longest stage of cell cycle
First Gap Phase (G1 Phase)
First stage of Interphase
Synthesis Phase (S Phase)
Second stage of Interphase
Second Gap Phase G2
Third stage of Interphase
G1
Stage of interphase where cells grow in size
S
Stage of interphase where DNA is replicated
G2
Stage of interphase where cells prepare for division
Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase
Stages of Mitosis
true
True or false: when dividing, each daughter cell receives the same genetic material
DNA
Chromosomes are made of
Prophase
Mitosis stage in which:
- chromatin condenses
- sister chromatids are formed
- centrioles move to each pole
- nucleolus disappears
- nuclear membrane breaks down
Metaphase
Mitosis stage in which:
- Spindle fibres attach to centromere
- Chromosomes line up in the middle
Centrioles
Centrosomes contain:
Centromere
Point of intersection of sister chromatids
Sister Chromatids
This chromosome is made up of two:
Anaphase
Mitosis stage in which:
- Spindle fibres shorten
- Sister chromatids separate and move to opposite poles
- Cell starts to pinch
g0
Phase during which cells can no longer divide
Telophase
Mitosis stage in which:
- Cell membrane pinches inwards fully
- Nuclear membrane re-forms
Cytokinesis
Cytoplasm splitting in half and moving to two daughter cells
Apoptosis (cell suicide)
Controlled death of old cells
Prophase
Phase of mitosis
Metaphase
Phase of mitosis
Anaphase
Phase of mitosis
Telophase
Phase of mitosis
Epithelial, connective, muscle, nervous
4 types of tissue in human body
Tissue
Group of cells similar in shape that work together to perform a specialized function
Epithelial
Tissue that lines surfaces of body, like skin or intestine lining
Nervous
Tissue that carries signals through neurons
Muscle
Tissue that changes shape by relaxing and contracting to affect body movement
Connective
Tissue that strengthens, supports, binds, or connects cell tissues (in animals)
Connective
Type of tissue made up often by bone, fat, or blood cells
Nervous
Type of tissue made up by neurons
Epithelial
Type of tissue made up often by skin/epidermal cells
Dermal, ground, vascular
3 types of tissue systems in plants
Dermal
Tissue that protects plants from injury and water loss (often made up by epidermal and guard cells)
Ground
Tissue that stores produced carbohydrates in plants, and photosynthesizes
Vascular
Tissue that transports water, minerals, and nutrients in plants (made up by cells such as Xylem and Phloem)
Cancer
Group of diseases that results in uncontrolled cell division that leads to the formation of a tumor
Tumor
Lump of cells that continues to divide without a purpose
Benign tumor
Tumor that does not affect the normal cells around it (not cancerous)
Malignant
Tumor that affects the function of normal cells around it (cancerous)
Carcinogens
Causes of cancer in environment
true
True/false: cancer can be inherited
Chemo, radiation, surgery
3 main treatments for cancer
Cleavage furrow
Cut between cells during cytokinesis
Meristematic
Tissue in plants that is a base cell (for growth on a stalk)— featureless, changes into other cell types as needed
Xylem
Dead tissue that transports water in plants
Chromatin
Loose chromosomes in Interphase
Centriole
Organelle not found in plant cells
