Cell Structure And Function Flashcards
What is being dissolved
Solute
What is doing the
dissolving
Solvent
A liquid mixture of
solute and solvent
Solution
Solute moves from
high to low concentration
Diffusion
Movement of WATER
across a semi-permeable
membrane
low to high
solute concentration
Osmosis
What acted as a semi-permeable membrane with tiny holes to let very small molecules pass through
Dialysis Tubing
1 solution’s solute
concentration in comparison to
another solution
(hypo/hyper/isotonic)
Tonicity
Investigation 2 with Animal Cells used
Cheek cells with methylene blue stain
Investigation 2C: Plant
Cells used
Elodea cells - one leaf
How make a Wet Mount?
-Clean slide
-one drop of specimen
-coverslip at 45 degree angle
Investigation 3A:
Prokaryotic Cells used
Bacteria
Prokaryotes are
Bacteria
Bacteria cell shapes are
Coccus, Bacillus, Spirilum
Floating stuck together dots (caca)
Coccus shape
Many rods (harry potter)
Bacillus
Spiral rods
Spirillum
Investigation 3B: Making a Wet
Mount for Kingdom Bacteria used
Anabaena
a solution that has a higher solute concentration
compared to another solution
Hypertonic
a solution that has a lower solute concentration
compared to another solution
Hypotonic
Two solutions are at equilibrium. (have the same
concentration
Isotonic
Water will move from the
hypotonic solution towards the hypertonic solution
In Elodea, a hypotonic solution
Expanded the cell but did not burst due to the cell wall
In Elodea, a hypertonic solution
shriveled up the cell
In sheep’s blood,
the 0.9% NaCI solution was
Isotonic
