A

consists of inner and outer lipid bilayer membranes

19

20

21
Q

Chromatin

A

22
Q

What does chromatin turn into after being condensed ?

A

23
Q

diffusion

A

movement of particles from an area of high to low concentration.

24
Q

which are movements considered passive?

A
  • facilitated diffusion
  • osmosis
  • diffusion
25
facilitated diffusion
substances that are not able to pass through the lipid bilayer need help of a membrane protein to get across...
26
osmosis
is the movement of water across a selectively permeable membrane
27
isotonic
when the solute and solvent are at equilibrium
28
hypertonic
- if put into a hypertonic solution the cell will | - more solute then solvent
29
Hypotonic
- solutions with more solvent | - when a cell is placed in a hypotonic solution the cell will swell
30
filtration
forces molecules through membrane
31
active transport
is a process that moves particles through membranes from a region of lower concentration to a high concentration
32
Endocytosis
allow molecules or particles that are to large to enter the cell by diffusion or active transport to enter by means of a vesicle
33
Exocytosis
secretes outside of the cell
34
Pinocytosis
"cell drinking" cells take in droplets of liquid from their surroundings
35
Phagocytosis
"cell eating"...cell takes on solids
36
mitosis
cell division
37
at what stage does DNA replicate
interphase
38
At what stage do the number of chromosomes double ?
Interphase
39
Chromosomes are lined along the equilateral line during ...
Metaphase
40
At what stage are the daughter cells completely formed
Telophase
41
The centromeres divide during...
Anaphase
