17
Q

Eukaryotes

A

Has a nucleus and membrane bound organelles

18
Q

Fluid mosaic pattern

A

Diagram of the cell membrane

Shows the protein and lipid particles

19
Q

Diffusion

A

Molecules move high to concentration to low concentration until equally distributed

20
Q

Osmosis

A

The movement of water through a selectively permeable membrane is osmosis. Requires no energy

21
Q

Active transport

A

Moving from low to high concentration gradient

22
Q

Endocytosis

A

Molecules moving from outside to inside the cell with the cell creating a vacuole

23
Q

Phagocytosis

A

When molecules that are taken are huge

24
Q

Exocytosis

A

Vacuole fuse with membrane and contents are deposited outside the cell

25
Q

Hypertonic Solution

A

The cell has a lower concentration of a solute therefore water travels from the cell to the solution

26
Q

Hypotonic

A

Water enters the cell to balance the levels of solute

27
Q

Isotonic solution

A

Equal amount of solute inside and outside the cell

28
Q

The various enzymes in our body are

A

Protein

29
Q

What forms from a long chain of glucose molecules

A

Startch (carbohydrate)

30
Q

What are long chains of amino acids

A

Protein

31
Q

Glycogen

A

Polysaccharide of glucose (carbohydrate)

32
Q

What is a peptide bond

A

The bond of 2 or more amino acids

33
Q

Pinocytosis

A

When the molecules that are taken in are tiny

34
Q

Nucleus

A

Controls all functions in the cell

35
Q

Nuclear envelope

A

Double membrane that protects the nucleus

36
Q

Rough Endoplasmic reticulum

A

Ribosomes attached here. Produces protein

37
Q

Smooth ER

A

No ribosomes attached makes fat, detoxifies drugs

38
Q

Golgi Apparatus

A

Packages sorts and stores protein

39
Q

Mitochondria

A

Performs cellular respiration and produces ATP

40
Q

Cytoplasm

A

Holds organelles in their place

41
Q

Cytoskeleton

A

The frame that supports the cell

42
Q

Chloroplasts

A

Plant organelle that captures light and turns it into ATP energy

43
Q

Cell Wall

A

Plants only, located outside the plasma membrane provides support and additional protection
