Q

How many daughter cells does meiosis produce(male and female)

A

male-4
female- 1 viable egg

24
Q

they give up their cytoplasm to nourish the 1 good egg.

A

polar bodies

25
Q

It is the effect of crossing over

A

genetic variation

26
Q

Cell division where daughter cells are NOT identical

A

Meiosis

27
Q

Itis the movement of substances across thecell membraneeither into or out of the cell. Sometimes things just move through thephospholipid bilayer

A

Cell transport

28
Q

2 categories of cell transport

A

passive Transport
active transport

29
Q

The process by which molecules spread from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration

A

Diffusion

30
Q

When molecules are even throughout space

A

Equilibrium

31
Q

Molecules that cannot directly diffuse across the membrane pass through special protein channels

A

Facilitated Diffusion

32
Q

Osmosis works BOTH in Air and Fluids

A

False
Only Diffusion and Facilitated Diffusion works both in air and fluids

33
Q
  • proteins that involved in letting certain substances in and out of cells
A

Channel Proteins

34
Q

-proteins that cross both layers od the phospholipid bilayer

A

Integral Proteins

35
Q

proteins that are only on the top half or bottom half of the phospholipid bilayer

A

Peripheral Proteins

36
Q

The diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane down its concentration gradient. From an area of high WATER concentration to an area of lower WATER concentration

A

Osmosis

37
Q

concentration of solute and solvent are equal

A

Isotonic

38
Q

higher concentration of solutes

A

Hypertonic

39
Q

water will come out of the cell thus the cell will shrink

A

Hypertonic

40
Q

lower concentration of solutes

A

Hypotonic

41
Q

water will come inside of the cell thus the cell will expand

A

Hypotonic

42
Q

It is the one that dissolves

A

Solvent

43
Q

It is the one that is being dissolved

A

Solute

44
Q

Pressure required to present the passage of water through a semi-permeable membrane from a region of low concentration of solutes to one of higher concentration by osmosis.

A

Osmotic Pressure

45
Q

A category of cell transport that moves AGAINST a concentration agent and requires energy

A

Active transport

46
Q

2 Types of Active Transport

A

Molecular Transport
Bulk Transport

47
Q

Also called protein pumps

A

Molecular transport

48
Q

The process by which cells absorb material (molecules such as proteins) from outside the cell by engulfing it with their cell membrane

A

Endocytosis

49
Q

movement of fluids into the cell

A

Pinocytosis

50
Q

b)movement of solids into the cell

A

Phagocytosis

51
Q

A cellular process where cells eject waste products or chemical transmitters (such as hormones) from the interior of the cell.

A

Exocytosis

52
Q

Who created the first ever compound microscope

A

Anton van Leeuwenhoek

53
Q

Chromosomes are _ _ _

A

DNA
