New cards

Concentration Gradient

The difference in the concentration of substance between two regions

Only allows some molecules to pass through

26
New cards

Solute

A dissolving substance

27
New cards

Solvent

A substance that disolves a solute

28
New cards

Solution

A mixture when a solute dissolves into a solvent

29
New cards

Hypertonic

A higher concentration of solute

30
New cards

Hypotonic

A lower concentration of solute

31
New cards

Isotonic

An equal concentration of solute and solvent

32
New cards

Mitosis

The process of cell replication

New cards

Cleavage Furrow

Pinch of the cytoplasm during cytokinesis

37
New cards

Mitotic Spindle

Capture chromosomes and form them in a line

38
New cards

Interphase

Regular life of a cell

39
New cards

Prophase

DNA condenses into chromosomes, nuclear envelope breaks down

40
New cards

Metaphase

Chromosomes align at the cells center, spindle fibers attach

41
New cards

Anaphase

Chromosomes separate and move to opposite sides of the cell

42
New cards

Telophase

Nuclear envelope forms, chromosomes unfold back into chromatin

43
New cards

Cytokinesis

Cytoplasm divides to form two daughter cells
