MT 3 Bio Flashcards
What is it called when a tumor spreads out to other parts of the body?
metastasis
Name the two types of tumors?
Benign and Malignant
What type of tumor spreads?
Malignant
What type of tumor does not spread?
Benign
What kind of cell is in animals, plants, and fungi?
Eukaryotic
Name four things all cells have:
- Genetic material (DNA or RNA)
- Cytoplasm
- Cell Membrane
- Ribosomes
What are the three parts of the cell theory?
- All living things are made of cells
- Cells are the most basic unit of life
- All cells come from other cells
What is the job of the cell membrane?
to control what goes in and out of the cell
What organelle gives the cell shape and moves organelles around?
Cytoskeleton
What organelle holds everything in place?
Cytoplasm
What does cytoplasm do?
holds everything in place
What does the nucleus do?
protects DNA that controls the cells activity
What organelle makes ribosomes?
Nucleolus
What do ribosomes make?
protein
define a vesicle:
part of the membrane that goes around the lipid or protein to transport it around the cell
what are the jobs of the ROUGH endoplasmic reticulum?
make proteins and package them for secretion
what organelle makes and packages LIPIDS
smooth endoplasmic reticulum
What does the Golgi apparatus do?
gets vesicles of protein from the ER/ processes, sorts, and ships proteins where needed
what do lysosomes do
break down dead stuff/ can do programmed cell death
What organelle stores water, nutrients, and waste
Vacuoles
What organelles appear during cell division to pull chromosomes apart?
Centrioles/Centrosomes
What are cilia and flagella?
Animal and bacteria cells only, associated with the cytoskeleton
What is the job of cilia?
move fluids across the cells surface
What is the job of flagella?
move the entire cell through extracellular fluid
