Crossword CPA #6 Flashcards
found in plants, algae; used to store starch
vacuole
“cell drinking”; involves a vesicle
pinocytosis
type of active transport; movement of material into a cell via a vesicle
endocytosis
prokaryotes that have phospholipids in their cell membranes
bacteria
when a cell burst
lysis
prokaryotes that do not have peptidoglycan in their cell walls
archaea
fluid in a cell
cytosol
plays a role in lipid synthesis and transport
smooth ER
a cell placed in this solution would shrivel
HYPERtonic
a cell placed in this solution would not have any noticeable changes
ISOtonic
complex gycocalyx; helps the bacteria avoid easy capture by immune system by allowing the bacteria to be slippery
capsule
movement in response to light stimulus
phototaxis
movement in response to chemical stimulius
chemotaxis
shipping department of a cell
golgi body
when a white blood cell engulfs a bacterium
phagocytosis
type of passive transport; water moves from an area of low solute concentration to high solute concentration
osmosis
vesicle; contains oxidase, etc.
centrosomes
organelle that makes proteins in a cell
ribosomes
flap that prevents food/liquids from entering lungs
epiglottis
contains digestive enzymes to allow for phagocytosis
lysosomes
structures required for cell division; two of these are located in the centrosome
centrioles
plays a role in protein synthesis and transport
rough ER
a special extension made by one bacteria cell to another to transfer DNA
conjugation pilas
helps with cell structure and shape; helps resist osmotic pressure; only found in 3 eukaryotes (plants, algae, fungi)
cell wall
type of passive transport; uses protein channels
facilitated diffusion
i.e. lysosomes, peroxisomes, etc
vesicles
organisms that have a membrane bound nucleus that contains their DNA
eukaryotes
type of transport that requires ATP
active transport
internal scaffolding of a cell
cytoskeleton
a cell in this solution would burst
HYPOtonic
make TP in a cell without the need of light
mitochondria
used to harvest light to make ATP
chloroplasts
carry mucus and trapped microbes up to the pharynx
ciliary escalator
when a cell shrivels
crenation
feature of cells that allows them to regulate what comes in/out of cell
selectively permeable
hairlike structures that allow single-celled organisms to move; can also be found along the human respiratory tract and allows unwanted substances to be moved out of the tract
cilia
movement of material out of a cell via a vesicle
exocytosis
cytosol + organelles in a cell
cytoplasm
organisms that do not have a membrane bound nucleus to house their DNA
prokaryotes
aka cell or cytoplasmic membrane
plasma membrane
a bacterial defense strategy; “suspended animation”
endospore
aka sweet cup; protect bacterial cells from drying out and allow the bacteria to “stick” to a surface
glycocalyces
type of transport that does not require ATP
passive
system that exchanges gases between the atmosphere and blood
respiratory
loose glycocalyx; allows bacteria to aggregate and live together on a surface
biofilm
contain cells and chemicals to combat microbes that enter the most common portal of entry
tonsils
the major respiratory muscle; paralysis or unrelenting contraction of this muscle will cause death
diaphragm
structure used by bacteria to move
flagella
type of passive transport; moves solutes from an area of high solute concentration to low solute concentration
diffusion
