1
New cards

All living things consist of ___ and__ come from other _

Cell theory

2
New cards

simple, small cells, (bacteria, e coli, salmonella, listeria) doesn’t have membrane bound nucleus

Prokaryotic cells

3
New cards

Has a membrane bound nucleus that helps protect DNA (plant cell, animal cell, fungal cells, protistans)

Eukaryotic cells

4
New cards

A plasma membrane, genes, and cytoplasm are the 3 common feature of what?

Cells

5
New cards

An irregular bacteria shaped region in a prokaryotic cell that contains its DNA

Nucleoid

6
New cards

entire region between nucleus and plasma membrane

cytoplasm

7
New cards

Gel like fluid in which organelles are located

cytosol

8
New cards

_____ organisms can have other cells do jobs, are more larger, replace damaged cells, heal wounds, communication and coordination within complex behaviors, genetic diversity

multicellular

9
New cards

More surface area to volume ratio and has to do with their metabolic limits

Smaller cell

10
New cards

Contains most of the genes... double membrane... chromatin... nucleolus.

—Stores DNA and synthesizes mRNA and ribosomes

Nucleus

11
New cards

Synthesizes proteins

Ribosomes

12
New cards

Makes proteins used inside the cell

Free ribosomes

13
New cards

Make proteins for membranes or export

Bound ribosomes

14
New cards

Synthesizes lipids…detoxifies drugs…special role in muscle cells

-Metabolize carbohydrates

Smooth ER

15
New cards

Folds and packages secretory proteins…glycoproteins…vesicles bud off

Rough ER

16
New cards

Center of manufacturing, warehousing, sorting, and shipping

—CIS face receives

—Trans face ships

—Modifies proteins

—Ships them in vesicles

Golgi apparatus

17
New cards

Digest macromolecules…acidic environment…autophagy

-breaks down food

-Recycles old cell part

-Helps destroy cells during development

Lysosomes

18
New cards

Membrane-bound sacs…vacuoles larger

-Food Vacuoles

-Contractile vacuoles

-Central vacuoles

Vacuoles and vesicles

19
New cards

Contractile vacuoles

pump water

20
New cards

Central vacuole

Plants

21
New cards

Site of cellular respiration… has its own DNA

-Makes ATP (energy)

Mitochondria

22
New cards

Site of photosynthesis…..cholrophyll…own DNA

-turns sunlight into sugar

Chloroplasts

23
New cards

Actions of enzymes result in hydrogen peroxide

—Breaks down toxins and fatty acids

Peroxisomes

24
New cards

Network of fibers…support…motility…anchorage

Three fibers— Microfilaments, intermediate filaments, microtubules

Cytoskeleton

25
New cards

Cell walls, chloroplasts, central vacuoles, plasmodesmata make up

Plant cells

26
New cards

Many junction types, extracellular matrix, anchoring, tight, and gap junctions

animal cells

27
New cards

includes chromatin, chromosomes, nuclear envelope, nuclear pores, DNA

Nucleus

28
New cards

contained within the nucleus (organized with proteins into a material called chromatin)

DNA

29
New cards

coils up and condensed to form chromosomes.”

chromatin

30
New cards

components of ribosomes are synthesized here

nucleolus

31
New cards

This Synthesizes lipids (phospholipids and steroids)

  • “Metabolize carbohydrates”

  • “Detoxify drugs and poisons”

  • “Special role in muscle cells”


Smooth ER

32
New cards
  • “Folds and packages secretory proteins”

  • “Some are glycoproteins (carbohydrate is attached to protein in the E.R.)”

  • “Secretory proteins depart from E.R. wrapped in membranes of vesicles that bud… from transitional E.R.


Rough ER

33
New cards

the cell taking in food or particles so lysosomes can digest them.

phagocytosis

34
New cards

Convert solar energy to chemical energy

Photosynthesis

35
New cards

the membrane sacs inside chloroplasts.

Thylakoids

36
New cards

a stack of thylakoids.

Granum

37
New cards

network of fibers, support, mobility, anchorage

cytoskeleton

38
New cards

Actin

Mictrofilament

39
New cards

Protein and keratin

intermediate filament

40
New cards

tubulin as a subunit

microtubules

41
New cards

short hair like structures. Line our respiratory tract cells, wave in unison, more mucus, particles of dust

cillia

42
New cards

long whip like structure, movement in watery environment (sperm cells)

flagella

43
New cards

membrane lined channels that contain cytoplasm. Water & small molecules can pass from cell to cell.

plasmodesmata

44
New cards

Anchoring junction

Serve to mechanically attach adjacent cells.

Sturdy but flexible sheet of cells


45
New cards

Plasma membrane proteins attached to each other like a Ziplock.

Tight junctions

46
New cards


Allows cells to communicate. Small tubes connect cells. Small molecules and ions can pass

Gap junctions

47
New cards
  • No nucleus

  • No membrane-bound organelles

  • Can be photosynthetic

  • Have different shapes


Bacterial cell
