lysosome

16
New cards
<p>what are the tiny dots called in a human cell</p>

what are the tiny dots called in a human cell

ribosomes

17
New cards

what is the function of the nucleus

center in genetic activity of the cell, has the chromatin, chromosomes and nucleolus

18
New cards

what is the function of the nucleolus

to produce ribosomes in the nucleoplasm

19
New cards

what is the function of the mitochondria

“power house of cell” where ATP is produced

20
New cards

what is the chromatin

loose combination of DNA and proteins in their uncoiled state

21
New cards

what is the function of the rough endoplasmic reticulum

has ribosomes attached (does protein synthesis)

22
New cards

what is the function of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum

has no ribosomes, lipid and steroid hormone synthesis

23
New cards

what is the function of the golgi apparatus

responsible for packaging and exporting proteins

24
New cards

what is the function of the cell membrane

composed of phospholipids/proteins, determines what passes through the cell interior

25
New cards

what is the function of cytoplasm

distributes materials, metabolic activities take place (enzymes)

26
New cards

what is the function of lysosomes

store digestive enzymes to break down large molecules into smaller ones

27
New cards

what is the function of ribosomes

“workbenches” of the cell, proteins are made from amino acids

28
New cards

Where is DNA found in the two different cells?

In the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell

In the cytoplasm (nucleoid) of a prokaryotic cell

29
New cards

What is the difference between chromatin and chromosomes?

chromatin is DNA wrapped around proteins in a loose, uncoiled form

chromosomes is chromatin that has become tightly coiled and condensed, tightly packed DNA

30
New cards

What does hydrophobic mean?

water fearing, doesnt mix well with water

31
New cards

What does hydrophilic mean?

water loving, mixes/attracted to water

32
New cards
33
New cards

What part of the cell is composed of this phospholipid bilayer?

the cell membrane

34
New cards

what is hypertonic

when the solute is a greater percentage than the cell, cell will shrink

35
New cards

what is hypotonic

when the solute is a lesser percentage than the cell, cell will get bigger

36
New cards

what is isotonic

when the solute is the same percentage as the cell, cell will stay the same

37
New cards

What is the longest human cell?

sciatic nerve cell

38
New cards

Widest is diameter? (cell)

fertilized ovam

39
New cards

Lives a long time (forever)? (cell)

stem cells, immune cells, neuron cells, oocytes cells

40
New cards

Short life span? (cell)

sperm cells, skin cells, gastric cells, epithelial cells

41
New cards

What is PASSIVE transport? Name and define 3 examples of passive transport. Give an example of a substance that either enters or exits the cell for each type.

passive transport- the movement of substances across the cell membrane without using ATP, move from high → low concentration

3 ex: Simple diffusion: small non-polar molecules move directly through phospholipid bilayer (high→low) (ex: oxygen/lipids enters the cell)

Facilitated diffusion: polar molecules move from high→low concentration through transport proteins in the cell membrane (ex: glucose enters cell through transport proteins)

Osmosis: movement of water across cell membrane from high→low water concentration (ex: water enters cell)

42
New cards

What is ACTIVE transport? Name and define 3 examples of active transport. Give an example of a substance that either enters or exits the cell for each type.

active transport- the movement of substances across the cell membrane USING ATP (either a protein solute pump, ex: sodium/potassium pump) or vesicle formation (bulk transport, into/out of cell)) from low→high concentration

3 ex: exocytosis: cells uses vesicles to move substances out of cell (ex: cell releases muscous/waste)

endocytosis: cell uses its membrane to bring large substances into cell (ex: cell takes in large particle/nutrients, phagocytosis)

protein pumps: uses ATP to move substances against the concentration gradient (ex: sodium is pumped out of cell)

43
New cards

What are the 4 tissue types?

epithelial tissue, connective tissue, nervous tissue, muscle tissue

44
New cards

What is the basic structure of each tissue type

Epithelial tissue- tightly packed cells in sheets/layers

Connective tissue- cells spread out in a matrix

Muscle tissue- long cells/fibers that can contract (multi-nucleated)

Nervous tissue- neurons & supporting cells (irregular shapes)

45
New cards

What is the function of each tissue type?

epithelial tissue- covers & protects surfaces, absorbs & secretes

connective tissue- supports, connects, protects

muscle tissue- produces movement in body

nervous tissue- sends and receives electrical signals

46
New cards

Give an example of where each tissue type may be found in the body.

Epithelial tissue- skin

Connective tissue- bones

Muscle tissue- blood, glands, organs

Nervous tissue- brain, spinal cord, receptors
