Midterm Review Flashcards
atomic # =
of protons
mass # =
protons + neutrons
cations =
(+)
lose electrons
anions =
(-)
gain electrons
isotope =
same # protons, diff # neutrons
resulting in a different atomic mass
ex) Carbon 12, Carbon 13
powerhouse of cell
generate most ATP production
mitochondria
synthesize fatty acids/steroids
detoxifies drugs
smooth ER
do not contain ribosome
site of protein synthesis
rough ER
has ribosomes
(smooth ER DOES NOT)
packing, sorting, transport organelle
golgi apparatus
what organelle recycles old structures
lysosome
organelle that stores genetic info
nucleus
controls what enters/exits cell through a selective barrier
plasma membrane
everything in the cell besides the plasma membrane and nucleus
cytoplasm
supports organelles and facilitates chemical reactions
2 identical somatic (body) cells, 46 chromosomes (diploid) =
mitosis
4 cells end product (gamates) 23 chromosomes (haploid)
meiosis (reproductive)
where does translation occur
cytoplasm at ribosomes
where does transcription occur
inside nucleus
when RNA makes proteins =
translation
makes RNA copy from DNA template =
transcription
happens in cytoplasm at ribosomes
characteristics of epithelial
- attached to basement membrane
- avascular
- cell junctions present
- mitosis occurs frequently
what cells line air sacs of lungs, lining of heart, blood vessels, lymphatic vessels
simple squamous
(diffusion, filtration)
what cells line ducts, kidney tubules
simple cuboidal
(secrete & absorb)
what cells line intestines
simple columnar
absorption
secrete mucous/ enzymes
ciliated simple columnar line bronchioles and fallopian tubes
what cells line the trachea, upper respiratory tract
pseudostratified columnar
secrets mucus
