COL & Cell Structures | Protein Functions | Cell Transport (Cell Membrane) | Photosynthesis/Cellular Respiration | Eukaryotic Cell Cycle |
---|---|---|---|---|
What is a eukaryotic cell?
Large and complex; has a nucleus; plant and animal
|
What are transport proteins?
carrier proteins that move molecules from one place to another in the body
|
What is semi-permeability?
Allowing certain substances to pass through it but not others, especially allowing the passage of a solvent but not of certain solutes.
|
What is cellular respiration?
Daily Double: chemical process in which oxygen is used to make energy from carbohydrates
|
What is interphase?
During this time, the cell grows, DNA is replication, and the cell prepares for the M phase
|
What is heredity
Daily Double: The characteristic of life that claim all living things pass genes and traits from parent to offspring
|
What are defense proteins?
Antibody that defend the body against antigens or foreign invaders
|
What is the phospholipid bilayer?
Made up of 2 layers, includes proteins, cholesterol, and carbohydrates
|
What is photosynthesis?
takes place in the chloroplasts which are surrounded by a double membrane and contain a third inner membrane, called the thylakoid membrane,
|
What is the S phase
The amount of DNA doubles during this phase
|
What is The Cell Theory?
The theory that states:
1. All living things are made up of one or more cells 2. Cells are the basic unit of structure and function of all living things 3. All new cells come from pre-existing cells |
What are storage proteins?
Daily Double: Ovalbumin found in egg whites
|
What is the concentration of solutes on either side of the plasma membrane
A factor that influences the flow of water through the plasma membrane of a human cell
|
What is the photosynthesis equation?
6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2
|
What is 2-4-1-3?
Daily Double: Put the images in the correct order of mitosis
|
What is the endoplasmic reticulum
Carries proteins from one part of the cell to another
|
What are contractile proteins?
Actin and Myosin aid in muscle contraction and movement
|
What is a hyportonic solution?
Daily Double: A cell placed in this solution will have a net flow of water into the cell causing the cell to gain volume or burst
|
What is the cellular respiration equation?
Glucose + Oxygen = Carbon Dioxide and Water
|
What are somatic (body) cells
Type of cells replicated in mitosis
|
What is a nucleic acid?
Macromolecule made up of nucleotides responsible for storing and transmitting genetic information
|
What are factors that affect enzyme activity?
Temperature, pH, enzyme concentration, substrate concentration, the presence of any inhibitors or activators
|
What is a hypertonic solution?
A student used a microscope to observe Elodea submerged in a solution. The student observed the cell cytoplasm pull away from the cell wall and clump together in the center of the cell. Which statement BEST explains why this occurred?
|
What is slowing down with decreasing light intensity?
As light intensity slowly decreases in a forest, what will most likely happen to the rate of photosynthesis
|
What is sexual reproduction?
A biologist observed different colors of coats in a population of wild horses. The process that contributes to the variety of coats in the population of horses is
