Bio final(C1, C2, C3) Flashcards
who is robert hooke
First one to describe cells and look at a dead cell
who is Antoine Van leewenboek
first one to see living moving cells
who is matthias shleiden
stated that plants were made out of cells
Who is Theodore shwann
Stated that animals are made out of cells
who is robert brown
Discovered the nucleus in plant cells
who is francesco redi
disaproved the theory of spontaneous generation
who is louis pasteur
proved beyond a reasonable doubt that spontaneous generation of life does not now occur
who is rudolph Virchow
Observed cells dividing and stated that cells are formed by the division of pre-existing cells(biogenesis)
What is a Prokaryotic cells
are simple cells without a distinct membrane bound nucleus.
what is a Eukaryotic cells
More complex cells with membrane bound neclues
cell wall
Protects plant cells from mechanical damage
cell membrane
A selectivly permiable(controls what goes in and out) barrier between the inside and outside of the cell
Cytoplasm
A semifluid containing dissolved substances that are found between the spaces of the organelles
nucleus
contains dna and the genetic material of the cell. Ribosomes are produced in the nucleolus
ribosomes
Small complexes that translate genetic information into protein.
ER rough
Studded with ribosomes and Packages and transports protein
Er smooth
Synthesizes Lipids and packages them for transport.
Golgi apparatus
transport, sorting and modification of both protein and lipid
Lysosomes
Breakdown food particles, kill infections and recycle damaged or worn out cells.(Suicide cell)
Vacuoles(vesicles)
Storage of food,water, minerals
Central Vacuoles
store nutrients and water on which a cell can rely for its survival
Mitochondria
powerhouse of the cell. Generates energy(ATP)
Chloroplasts
Photosynthesis occurs and converts light energy into food
what is a cuticle
a waxy substance that coats the epidermal cells.help prevent water loss.non polar
upper epidermis
one cell thick and tightly packed. protects the leaf aginst any physical damage and pathogens.
palisade cells
one or more layers of tightly packed, lonng and narrow cells with many chloroplast. Site of most of the leaf’s photosynthesis
vascular bundle
a series of tubes that are visible as leaf veins. contains xylem and phloem that are tranpsort fluids.
xylem
dead cells that transport water and minerals upwards from the roots to the leaves.
phloem
alive cells that transports sugars produced by the leaves to various part of the plant
lower epidermis
one cell thick and tightly packed. protects the leaf aginst any physical damage and pathogens.
spongy tissue cells
loosly packed cells containing chloroplast. carries our photosyntheisis and the air spaces between cells allows for gas transport.
stomata
small opening in the epidermal layer that can open or close. Allows gasses in and out of the leaf. Has 2 guard cells that control the diamter and shape of the stomata
which way do the phosphate heads faces
outwards
the phosphate head is ______
hydrophillic
The fatty acid tails are ______
hydrophobic
where can proteins be found in the membrane
embedded in or attached to the phospholipid area
non polar molecules are ________
hydrophobic
Polar molecules are ________
hydrophillic
Charged Molecules are ________-
have a sphere of wter that prevents them passing through the membrane
