22
New cards

How is the cell membrane related to homeostasis?

a cell membrane maintains homeostasis by controlling the movement of substances across the cell membrane

23
New cards

What are the parts of the cell membrane

Phospholipids

Proteins

Carbohydrates

Cholesterol

24
New cards

What are the two main types of transportation

passive and active

25
New cards

What types of molecules can easily pass through the membrane

Small and non polar

Oxygen

Carbon dioxide

26
New cards

What are the types of passive transport

Diffusion

Facilitated diffusion

Osmosis

27
New cards

Does passive transport move up or down the concentration gradient

DOWN

28
New cards

What are the types of active transport

Bulk transport (endocytosis and exocytosis)

Protein pumps

29
New cards

What type of transport requires the use of energy?

Active

30
New cards

What type of solution is an isotonic solution? How does it affect the cell?

It means that the amount of solution outside the cell is the same as inside the cell. The cell stays the same (animals)

31
New cards

What is osmosis?

The movement of high to low concentration of water

32
New cards

what type of solution is a hypertonic solution? How does it affect the cell?

Solution outside the cell is more than inside.

It shrinks

33
New cards

What type of solution is a hypotonic solution?? How does it affect the cell?

Solution outside the cell is less than inside the cell.

Water floods into the cell causing the cell to burst (plants)

34
New cards

Is the image isotonic, hypertonic, or hypotonic?

Isotonic

<p>Isotonic </p>
35
New cards

Is the image isotonic, hypertonic, or hypotonic?

Hypotonic

<p>Hypotonic </p>
36
New cards

Is the image isotonic, hypertonic, or hypotonic?

Hypertonic

<p>Hypertonic </p>
37
New cards

what are the parts of Interphase and what occurs in each step?

G1: Growth and protein synthesis

S: DNA replication

G2: More growth and protein synthesis; prepares for Mitosis

38
New cards

What are the functions of the cell cycle?

To repair and replace damaged cells. Growth (multicellular)

Reproduction (unicellular)

39
New cards

what is the name of asexual reproduction in bacteria?

Binary fission

40
New cards

what is mitosis?

The cell cycle in which replicated chromosomes are separated into two new daughter cells that are identical to the original parent cell?

41
New cards

what are the stages of mitosis in order?

Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase

42
New cards

What happens in Prophase?

Membranes around nucleus disintegrates

Chromosomes condense and become sister chromatids

Centrioles migrate to the opposite poles of the cell

Spindle fibers emerge from the Centrosome/centrioles

43
New cards

What happens in Metaphase?

Sister chromatids move toward the middle of the cell on. A line called the metaphase plate.

Centrioles send out spindle bribers that attach to the centromere of each sister chromatids

44
New cards

What happens in Anaphase?

Centrioles start pulling on the spindle fibers to pull the sister chromatids apart

They are now called chromosome

45
New cards

What happens at Telophase?

The nuclear membrane forms around each sex of chromosomes

46
New cards

What is the difference between cytokinesis in plants and animals?

The area where the cytoplasm punches is known as the cleavage furrow in animals and a cell plate in plants

47
New cards

How is mitosis related to genetic continuity?

Mitosis creases two daughter cell that are identical to the parent cell. Each daughter cell has the exact same genes, thus genetic continuity.
