56
Q

Is Prokarya a domain of life?

57
Q

What are the 3 domains of Life?

A

Archaea, Bacteria, and Eukarya

58
Q

cell membranes are selectively permeable, meaning that…

A

some things can enter/exit them

59
Q

forms a thin, protective layer around the cell

A

cell membrane

60
Q

this type of transport requires energy from the cell

A

active transport

61
Q

this type of transport doesn’t require energy expenditure from the cell

A

passive transport

62
Q

includes simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, osmosis, and filtration

A

passive movement

63
Q

requires ATP and the cell to expand energy, endocytosis, and exocytosis

A

Active movement

64
Q

the movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration until they are distributed evenly

65
Q

the difference in concentration areas is called the

A

concentration gradiant

66
Q

this occurs when certain molecules can only pass through the cell membrane with assistance from other cellular structures such as large proteins

A

facilitated diffusion

67
Q

the diffusion of water molecules through a semipermeable membrane from a region of higher water concentration (lower solute concentration) to a region of lower water concentration (higher solute concentration)

68
Q

the process in which the plasma membrane engulfs extracellular material, forming membrane-bound sacs that enter the cytoplasm and thereby move material into the cell

A

endocytosis

69
Q

“cell drinking” the cell takes in fluid filled droplets by forming a pocket in the cell membrane and then pinching off with the fluid and any small nutrients, amino acids, glucose, vitamins, etc. inside

A

pinocytosis

70
Q

“cell eating” the cell engulfs a particle by sending out pseudopods and then consumes the particle with enzymes.

A

phagocytosis

71
Q

the process in which intracellular material is enclosed within a membrane-bound sac that moves to the plasma membrane and fuses with it, releasing the material outside the cell

A

exocytosis

72
Q

particles in the solvent

73
Q

liquid the solute is in

74
Q

the mixture

75
Q

76
Q

Tonic

A

tension, refers to amount of solute in the solution

77
Q

A

isotonic solution

78
Q

higher solute concentration outside the cell than inside the cell; a cell loses water and the cytoplasm shrinks

hypertonic solution

79
Q

higher solute concentration inside the cell than outside the cell; a call gains water

Q

hair-like structures that cover a cellular surface of a protist, and move the protist with coordinated back and forth beating-like motions

86
Q

these are tail-like appendages that whip through the water, propelling the protist forward. There can be one, two, or several of these on the surface of a protozoan

87
Q

this is the movement of cytoplasm within. cells, and typically serves to circulate nutrients and move organelles throughout the cell

A

cytoplasmic streaming

88
Q

various lineages of protists

A

supergroups

89
Q

this supergroup of protists includes parasites as well as many predatory and photosynthetic species

A

supergroup excavata

90
Q

this supergroup of protists includes some of the most important photosynthetic organisms on Earth as well as predatory and parasitic species
may not all have the same most recent common ancestor

A

supergroup chromalveolata

91
Q

this supergroup of protists contains amoebas with threadlike pseudopodia. pseudopodia are extensions of the cytoplasm formed by cytoplasmic streaming

A

supergroup rhizarians

92
Q

this supergroup of protists contains the red algae, green algae, and Kingdom Plantae

A

supergroup archaeplastida

93
Q

this supergroup of protists contains the amoebas, slime molds, as well as the Fungi and Animal kingdoms

A

supergroup unikonta

95
Q

this strain of bacteria contains 1 thick peptidoglycan layer and 1 plasma membrane. This strain appears violet

A

Gram ‘Positive’

96
Q

this strain of bacteria contains an inner and outer plasma membrane with a thinner peptidoglycan layer in-between. This strain appears red/pinkish

A

Gram ‘Negative’

97
Q

this is a material made of the linking of various proteins that form a very strong chain fence-like structure that is also permeable to most materials

A

peptidoglycan

98
Q

Only difference between gram positive and gram negative

A

thick layer peptidoglycan/ one cell membrane= positive
thin layer/ 2 cell membrane =negative
one cell membrance=

99
Q

(purple of blue) refers to organisms that retain the iodine complex

A

gram positive

100
Q

(pink or red) refers to organisms that lose the iodine complex
