Honors Bio Finals

Active Transport

the movement of particles from low to high concentration and requires ENERGY

Facilitated Diffusion

The movement of LARGE particles from high to low concentrations, USES PROTEINS, no energy needed

Osmosis

The diffusion of WATER from high to low concentration

Diffusion

The spreading of molecules in an area from high to low

Animal Cell

No cell wall, complex cell and has a nucleus

Plant Cell

Cell wall, chloroplast, complex cell, has a nucleus

Prokaryote Cell

Simple cell, Bacteria, doesn’t have a nucleus

G0 phase

Resting phase (exists cell cycle, Interphase)

G1 phase

Growth, functions, more organelles (Interphase)

G2 pase

Prepares for cell division (Interphase)

S phase

Synthesis-DNA copies (Interphase)

M phase

Mitosis (dividing), also contains PMAT

Normal Cells

Small and light nucleus, normal rate of replication, cycling regulates growth, apoptosis

Cancerous Cell

Large and dark nucleus, rapid and uncontrolled rate of replication, cycling not regulating, no apoptosis

Mitosis

Body cells, same cells 2, diploid

Meiosis

Gametes, Different cells 4, Haploid

Transcription

Copying DNA into mRNA

Translation

Making proteins out of amino acids, using the code on mRNA

What is the process of translation?

DNA, RNA, Codon (3 letters read), Amino Acids, tRNA uses anti-codon to attach amino acids, protein

Quantitative

Using numbers to measure something

Qualitative

Information like characteristics or qualities of something
