Topic 1/2-cell Biology Flashcards
Organisms can be
Prokaryotic and eukaryotic
All living things are made of
Cells
Prokaryotic?
Small and simpler
Which is bacteria cell
Eukaryotic
Animal cells have.?5
Nucleus cytoplasm cell membrane mitochondria ribosomes
Nucleus?
Genetic info that controls activity of cell
Cytoplasm
Gel like substance where most chemical reactions happen and contains enzymes
Cell membrane
Hold cell together and controls what goes in n out
Mitochondria
Most aerobic respiration take place
Respiration
Transfers energy to cells need to work
Ribosomes
Where proteins made
Plant cells have 3 more
Cell wall permanent vacuole chloroplast
Cell wall
Support strengthens cell
Vacuole
Cell sap
Chloroplast
Where photosynthesis happens
Bacteria cells have
Cell wall cell membrane cytoplasm
Light microscope use
Light and lenses
Light microscope They let us see
Individual cells
Electron microscope
Use electrons
Electron microscope They have
A higher magnification
Electron microscope And a higher
Resolution
Electron microscop let us see
Smaller things like ribosomes
Magnification =
Image size
Divide
Real size
Cells differentiate to become
Specialised
Differentiation is
When a cell changes to become specialised for its job
Sperm are specialised for
Reproduction
How are sperm specialised for reproduction
Long tail and streamlines head
Nerve cells are specialised for
Rapid signalling
Muscle cells are specialised for
Contractions
Root hair cells are specialised for
Water and minerals
Chromosomes contain
Genetic info
Chromosomes are coiled up lengths of
Dan molecules
How many chromosome do a human have
23 pairs
The cell, cycle make new calls for
Growth development and repair
What is it called when a cell divides
Mitosis
What happens during mitosis- 6 steps
1- Dna spreads on long strips 2-sub cellular structures increase 3- Dan duplicates 4- chromosomes line up 5- membranes form around chromosomes 6-cytoplasm and cell membranes divide
Prokaryotic replicate by
Binary fission
Embryonic stem cells can turn into
ANY type of cell
Undifferentiated cells are called
Stem cells
Stem cells can be used to cure
Diabetes nerve cells
Adult stem cells are found in
Bone marrow
Why are some people against stem cell research
Because every cell is a potential human life
What can stem calls do with plants
Produce identical plants
In plants stem cells are found in
Meristems
Diffusion is
Spreading out of particles from high concentration to low
Diffusion occurs in
Solutions and gasses
Osmosis
Movement of water molecules from a region of high concentration to low
What is a partially permeable member an
A membrane with holes in it
What is active transport
Substances absorbed against a concentration gradient from a lower to higher
An example of active transport
Root hair cells
We need active transport to
Stop us from starving
What is the order of cells tissue, organs organ system
Cells > tissues > organs> organ system
Stomach -
Pummels food with muscular walls produces protease and hydrochloride acid which kills bacteria
What is the job of the Pancreas
To release enzymes into the small intestine
The liver
Produces bile
Small intestine absorbs
Soluble food molecules
Large intestine absorbs
Water from undirected foods leaving poo
Enzymes are
Catalyst that speed up rate of reaction
Enzymes are large
Proteins
What fits into a enzymes
Substrate
Why can’t you heat a enzyme
It will denature the enzyme
Enzymes optimism ph is
7
Rate =
1000 divide time
Digestive enzymes break down
Big molecules
Big molecules are
Starch protein fats
Big molecules need to be smaller so they can
Pass easily through the walls of the digestive system and absorbed into blood stream
Amylase breKs down
Starch
Amylase found in
Salivary gland pancreas small intestine
Pro teases break down protein into
Amino acids
Lipases converts fats into
Fatty acids
Bile neutrilises
Stomach acid s and emulsified fats
Bile-Produces in? stored in ?released in?
Liver stored in gall bladder released in small intestine
Circulatory system carries
Food and oxygen into blood
Circulatory system is made up of
Heart blood vessels blood
Right ventricle pumps
Deoxygenated blood
Right ventricle pumps deoxygenated blood To the
Lungs
From the lungs the blood returns to
The heart
The left ventricle pumps
Oxygenated blood around the body
The heart is a
Pumping organ
The heart isMade of
Muscle tissue
What are valves
Used to make sure blood is flowing in one direction
The heart uses __ chambers
4
What are the 4 heart chambers
Right and left atrium and ventricle
Blood flows into the ___ from the ______ and the ________ ______
Atria vena cava pulmonary vein
What is a pace maker
What you heart rate is controlled by in the right atrium
Arteries
Carry blood away from the heart
Capillaries
Exchange of materials at the tissues
Veins
Carry blood to heart
Arteries carry blood under
Pressure
Artery walls are
Elastic and strong
The walls of arteries are made of
Muscle tissue
Caplilaries are really
Small
Capillaries have a ___ wall and a very ____ lumen
Thin small
Arteries branch into
Capellaries
