Q

Osmosis!

A

The diffusion of water molecules through a selectively permeable membrane

19
Q

Active transport

A

the movement of materals through a cell membrane using cellular energy

20
Q

Forced transport

A

the movement of materials through a cell membrane without using the cell’s energy

21
Q

What are the basic units of structure and function in living things?

A

Cells

22
Q

Amino acids are made up of

A

Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen & nitrogen (proteins and nucleic acids)

23
Q

Can compounds be broken down into smaller substances?

A

Yes

24
Q

Organic compounds contain what elements? !

A

Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen & nitrogen

25
Q

List the levels of organization in multi-cellular organisms

A

cells, tissues, organs, the organ system

26
Q

Explain the importance of the cell membrane to the survival of the cell

A

It protects it and acts as a selectively permeable membrane

27
Q

Why is it important for a cell to be selectively permeable?

A

It’s important because cells must let in needed materials but waste materials must move out (healthy levels of water)

28
Q

What would happen to cells or a fresh water organism if it was placed in salt water?

A

Osmosis (die)

29
Q

What are 5 ways you can distinguish an animal cell from a plant cell

A

color, shape, plants have cell walls, plants have chloroplast, animals have lysosomes

30
Q

Chloroplast are found only in the cells of what organisms?

A

Plants

31
Q

The ability to clearly distinguish individual parts of an object is called

A

Resolution

32
Q

Explain the difference between active and passive transport.

A

Active transport is the movement of materials through a cell membrane using cellular energy. Passive transport is the movement of dissolved materials through a cell membrane without using cellular energy.

33
Q

What is the smallest unit of an element?

A

An atom

34
Q

What are the effects of osmosis?

A

Protects the cell from bad stuff, lets in good stuff (lets in what’s needed)

35
Q

Who was the first scientist to see what he called tiny animals?

A

Anton Van Leewanhouk

36
Q

Which of the following is not made of cells, a pile of sand or a dog?

A

A pile of sand

37
Q

Which type of organic compound includes sugar and starches?

A

Carbohydrates (carbs)

38
Q

Which cell organelle becomes more numerous when the cell is active?

A

mitochondria

39
Q

Which type of transport requires a cell to use its own energy?

A

Active transport

40
Q

Water inside a cell is stored in what organelle?

A

The vacuole

41
Q

DNA material can also be called this:

A

Chromotin

42
Q

Diffusion of water through a selectivley permeable membrane is called…

A

Osmosis

43
Q

Amino acids are made of these things:

A

Nucleic acids and proteins

44
Q

What compounds always contain carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen?

A

Organic compounds (living)
