25
what are organelles?
Little organs with specific functions
26
peroxisomes
contains catalase and oxidative enzymes that breakdown lipids and other toxic substances by converting them into hydrogen peroxide and then breaking them down into water and oxygen
27
what is membrane transport?
allows nutrients, waste, water in and out of the cell in a controlled manner
28
what is the cytoplasm?
all materials between the membrane and nucleus
29
What is exocytosis?
the movement of large substances OUT of the cell into a transport vesicle
30
what is osmosis?
the movement of water from high to low concentration
31
what are the two types of membrane transport?
passive and active transport
32
what phase is 90% of a cell's life?
interphase
33
Centrioles function
organize the spindle microtubules that attach to chromosomes during mitosis
34
What does stratified mean when it comes to tissues?
Multiple layers
35
What is cyotosol?
The viscous (jelly like) fluid containing dissolved substances
36
what does the mitotic phase include?
mitosis and cytokinesis
37
What is the criteria for classifying tissues?
The number of layers and the shape
38
ribosomes
site of protein synthesis
39
nucleolus
synthesizes rRNA and assembles ribosomes in nucleus
40
what does active transport require?
energy (ATP) and a transporter protein
41
what is regeneration?
high mitotic activity. This happens because the apical surface is exposed to the environment so it gets damaged easily.
42
What is epithelial tissue?
external and internal lining of boy surfaces, cavities, and organs
43
what are tight junctions considered?
the gatekeepers between internal and external environment
44
What are the four functions of epithelial tissue?
protection, selective permeability, secretion, sensation
45
does passive transport require energy?
No.
46
what is tissue?
group of cells performing similar functions
47
Rough ER function
synthesizes proteins meant for cell membrane
48
what do adhering junctions do?
they contain microfilaments that stabilize the apical surface
49
what are the functions of the glycocalyx? (3)
adhesion, barrier, recognition
50
What are cells composed of?
cells and extracellular matrix
51
What do tight junctions do?
they prevent substances from traveling between cells, so they must go through the cell to be regulated.
52
what is bulk filtration?
movement across membrane due to HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE (water pressure)
53
what are epithelial tissue's characteristics?
composed almost entirely of cells, has an apical and basal surface, a basement membrane, lacks blood vessels, connected to nerve endings, and high mitotic activity
54
phagocytosis
projects pseudopods and engulfs particles (cell eating)
55
what are inclusions and example?
large aggregates of specific molecules Ex. a reserve of glycogen in the liver
56
What is the extracellular matrix?
substance produced by cell, located outside (protein fibers, salts, water)
57
what is a solute?
anything that gets dissolved into a solution
58
what are the two types of organelles?
membrane bound and non membrane bound
59
what is facilitated diffusion?
a transporter protein decides the movement from a high to low concentration
60
What does the cytoplasm include?
cytosol, inclusions, and organelles
61
What is the mitotic phase?
Cell dividing to form to genetically identical cells
62
what does simple diffusion occur with?
small and non polar molecules
63
golgi apparatus function
receives proteins from rough ER and then modifies, packages, and sorts them to go to other organelles or the plasma membrane
64
plasma membrane
selectively permeable barrier between intercellular and extracellular environments
65
what are the four types of passive transport?
simple diffusion, osmosis, facilitated diffusion and bulk filtration
66
smooth ER function
cite of lipid synthesis and detoxification of alcohol and drugs
67
cytoskeleton function
main structural support for the cell (contains microtubules, microfilaments and intermediate filaments)
68
where does DNA replication and growth occur in the cell cycle?
the S phase
69
what is avascularity?
lack of blood vessels
70
where are adhering junctions found?
they encircle deep to tight junctions
71
What does pseudo stratified mean when it comes to tissues?
single layer, but nuclei look stratified
72
What is polarity?
having an apical and basal surface
73
What are the two (2) parts of bulk transport?
Exoctyosis and endocytosis
74
pinocytosis
folds inward, brings in fluid (cell drinking)
75
Where are desmosomes located?
at stress points for extra reinforcement
76
cytoplasm function
suspend cellular organelles
