24
Q

A cell surrounded by an extremely thin; flexible membranes. Why is membrane selectively permeable

A

It allows all substances to pass through and excludes others based on size, polarity, and other factors.

25
A hypotonic
Has a lower concentration (number) of impermeant to solute than do the cells in the solution
26
A protein that span the cells membrane is termed a
Integral protein
27
A temporary cell that is no longer useful for development undergoes preprogrammed cell death during this process
The cell can no longer adhere to other cells
28
About how many cells constitute the body of an adult
50 to 100 trillion
29
Build up of incorrectly fielded proteins induces stress known protein response (UPR) that when prolonged has a high correlation with neurodegenerative such as Parkinson which organelle is likely malfunctions and allowing for build up
Lysosome
30
Cell membranes are described as fluid mosaic that maintains stability while still allowing movement what component maintains most of the flexibility of the membrane
Phospholid bilayer
31
centromeres of replicated chromosomes separate during mitotic
Anaphase
32
Chromosomes duplicate during
Interphase
33
Endoplasmic reticulum is best described as a
Network of interconnected membranes
34
If a red blood cells is placed in hypotonic solution
the cell will swell and may eventually burst
35
In phagocytosis
A cell membrane engulfs droplets
36
Stages of the cell cycle unfold in the following older
Interphase, mitosis, cytoplasmic, division, and differentiation
37
The function of nucleus is to
Direct the activities of the cell
38
The major components of the cell membranes are
Lipids and proteins
39
The movement of molecules through a membrane by filtration requires
hydrostatic pressure
40
The nucleolus contains
RNA and proteins
41
The three major parts of a cell are
The nucleus, cytoplasm, and cell membrane
42
What characteristics do simple diffusion and facilitated diffusion share
Both move substances from region of higher concentration to one of lower concentration without using cellular energy
43
The anatomical term indicates a structure close to the surface
Superficial
44
The thoracic cavity lies superior to the abdominopelvic cavity
Superior
45
Which of the following is a positive feed back mechanism
Uterine contractions during childbirth
46
Which of the following is Not an example of a negative homeostatic mechanism in the human body
Retention of fluid leading to retention of more fluid
47
Which of the following is not part of the female reproductive system
the bulbourethral gland
48
Which of the following describes a lysosome
A tiny membranous sac that contains enzymes that degrade worn cells and debris
49
Which organelle contain nucleolus
The nucleus
50
A cell is the basic unit of structure and function of a organism
True
