New cards

3 components of Cell Theory

  1. All living things are made up of cells

  2. Cells are the basic units of structure and function in living things

  3. Livings things can only come from other living cells.

2

Apoptosis

lysosome function; programmed cell death and responsible for every hole in your body.

26
New cards

is energy processed or made?

processed

27
New cards

Plasma Membrane

made out of phospholipids In all cells, it controls what goes in and out of the cell, maintains homeostasis.

28
New cards

Cell wall

In all prokaryotes and plant cells - it is important for cell structure and and shape, it offers protection.

29
New cards

Nucleus

In all Eukaryotic cells, Houses the cells DNA, controls the activities

30
New cards

Mitochondria

All Eukaryotic cells Makes ATP and controls cellular respiration

31
New cards

Chloroplasts

Only in plant cells, makes sugar and is involved in photosynthesis

32
New cards

Ribosomes

Makes protein - is in all cells

33
New cards

Endoplasmic Reticulum

Only in Eukaryotic cells, has many folds, helps materials get around processes molecules and there is more the one type.

34
New cards

Smooth ER

farther from the nucleus, no bound ribosomes

synthesizes lipids

35
New cards

Rough ER

Closer to the nucleus, covered in ribosomes

Compartmentalizes the cell, synthesizes proteins, strucutral support

36
New cards

Golgi Appartus

Assembles items from the ER, modifies them sorts and packages them, found in Eukaryotes.

37
New cards

Endomembrane system

from the ribosomes in the nucleus, to the ER, to vesticle, to the golgi apparatus, to the vesisticle again to be taken to the plasma membrane

38
New cards

Vesticles

Only in eurkaryotic cells; tramsports materials between organells

39
New cards

Cytoplasm

In all Eukaryotic cells Supports cell organelles, helps hold internal parts of cell in place, stores molecules for cellular processes.

40
New cards

Vacuoles

Is in all Eukaryotic cells Not in Prokaryote, stores materials, manages waste and provides structure support.

41
New cards

Food Vacuoles

in animal protist cells; fuses with lysosomes to contain undigested food

42
New cards

Contractile Vacuoles

protists cells; pumps excess water out of cell

43
New cards

Central Vacuoles

plant cells; mainly stores materials deposties metabolic byproducts

44
New cards

Lysosomes

Contains enzymes that break down substances not in prokaryotes. Only in plant cells

45
New cards

Cristae

part of the mitochondria; folds of the inner membrane

46
New cards

Stroma

part of chloroplasts; the fluid

47
New cards

Endosymbiosis theory

theory of why mitochondria and chlorplasts are in eukaryotic cells

48
New cards

Hypertonic

Water leaves cell; high solute inside cell

49
New cards

Hypotonic

water enter cell; low solute inside cell

50
New cards

solvent

doing the dissolving

51
New cards

solute

being dissolved

52
New cards

Predicts where the water will move next

53

57
New cards

4 structures that all cells have

Cell membrane, cytoplasm, ribosome, DNA

58
New cards

Active Transport

The movement of particles from low to high concentration, uses ATP

59
New cards

Passive transport

Movement of high to low particles dosen’t use ATP

60
New cards

Endocytosis and Exocytosis

Forms of active transport Endocytosis is bringing things from inside of the cell to outside of the cell. Exocytosis exctrete substances outside the cell like throwing up.

61
New cards

Diffusion

Movement of energy from high to low concentration, moves with the flow - the concentration gradient

62
New cards

Osmosis

Exact same as diffusion but with water, water will move in direction where there is a lower concentration of water (and therefore more solute)

63
New cards

Homeostasis

Healthy, normal balanced state

64
New cards

How does cellular transport help maintain homeostasis

Because it helps movement around the cell, helping to create balance, makes sure everything runs smoothly.

65
New cards

Hypo tonic

Hypo means less solute, the cell gets bigger - more molecules outside then inside

66
New cards

Hypertonic

More solute, cell is smaller

67
New cards

Isotonic

Ideal outcome, it is balanced, same concentration of water and solute.

68
New cards

Membrane Phospholipid function

creates a selectively permeable membrane

69
New cards

Are virsus alive

No they are not alive, they cannot reproduce by themselves, according to cell theory all living things come from cells and virus do not.

70
New cards

Can viruses replicate by themselves

No, they need a host cell.

71
New cards

Lytic cycle

The lytic cycle is when a virus attaches itself to the host cell and overwhelms it right away injecting its DNA/RNA, quickly making new copies of the virus.

72
New cards

Lysogenic cycle

Lysogenic cycle is when the virus injects its genetic material, but only enough so that it can hide itself within the host cells genetic material, then makes copies, this is a slower process.

73
New cards

What is the purpose of the capsid in a virus

It protects DNA/RNA, it is a protein coat

74
New cards

A virus is bigger/smaller then a cell

Much smaller
