Chapter 5-7 Flashcards
Eukaryotes
- more complex than prokaryotes
- 10 micrometers to 100 micrometers in length
- true nucleus within a cell membrane
- cytoplasm called organelles are membrane boud with cell wall.
Example: plants, animals, humans protozoa, fungi, and algae
Isotonic solution
-has the same osmotic pressure as the solution in the cell. The cell remains unchanged.
Hypertonic solution (seawater)
-the cell will shrink and wrinkle because water molecules are moving out of the cell causeing cell death.
Hypotonic solution (freshwater)
- the cell will swell and burst because water molecules are moving into the cell.
- majority of bacteria.
what does osmosis need?
a permible membrane
Plasma Membrane
-allows inflow and outflow of waste products, nutrients, and cell secretions.
Active Movement Across the Cell Membrane
-Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) “energy”, is used to move substances from low concentration areas to high concentration areas.
Passive Movement Across the Cell Membrane
-Moves without Adenosine Triphoshate (ATP) from high constentration areas to low.
Example: Simple Diffusion, facilitated diffusion and osmosis.
Osmosis
Moving solvent molecules across a selectively permiable membrane from high solvent concentration to low solvent concentration.
Primary Solvent is?
Water
Solute
Substance dissolved in water.
Cell Wall
- only found in algae, plants cell and fungi.
- composed of cellular, ligin, and mineral salts.
- dosent contain peptidoglycan like prokaryotes.
- complex, insoluble in simple sugar like glucose.
- mold contains chitin (made like exoskeleton of insects)
- provide shape and protection to the cell.
Nucleus
- Spherical structure at the center of the cell.
- control center of organelles.
- surrounded by a nucleur membrane.
- designs and oversees construction of ribosomes.
Nucleur Membrane
- composed of membrane
- enclosed in nucleoplasm
- nucleoplasm contatins nucleolus and chromatin granules .
Ribosomes
-move to nucleur envolope to produce proteins.
