Unit 1 Review (Cell structure, Cell Energy, Cell growth and Division) Flashcards
The Cell theory
- Cells are made from other cells
- All organisms are made out of cells
- The cell is the basic unit of life
What does a eukaryotic cell have that a prokaryotic does not?
Nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles; both have DNA, cytoplasm, and Cell membrane
What is the function of the Mitochondrion
Powerhouse of cell; site of cellular respiration
When working with the microscopes, if I have the lowest power objective lens (x4) what is the overall magnification?
40 times
What is the passive movement of substances across the cell membrane from high to low concentration without the use of a protein?
Diffusion
What is the passive movement of substances across the cell membrane from high to low concentration with the use of a protein?
Facilitated Diffusion
What is the passive movement of water across the cell membrane from high to low concentration with the use of a protein?
Osmosis
Name 3 types of membrane transport that use energy.
Active transport, Exocytosis, Endocytosis
When a cell is submerged in a solution with more solutes dissolved in it than in the cell what will happen?
Water will leave the cell and the cell will shrink.
When a cell is in a solution where water enters the cell and the cell swells, what type of solution is this called compared to the cell?
Hypotonic (think the “o” in hyp”o”tonic is like the solution with 0 salt in our lab)
What is the function of the nucleus?
Genetic storehouse, makes DNA usable for the rest of the cell, “Brain of the cell”
What is the function of the ribosome?
Manufacture or make proteins
What is the function of the lysosomes in the animal cell?
Break down worn-out cell parts and protect from bacteria and viruses
What is the function of the chloroplasts?
Do photosynthesis in plant cells
What are the inputs and outputs of photosynthesis?
Light + CO2 + Water -> Sugar + Oxygen
note, CO2 or Carbon Dioxide is required here, “carbon” is not descriptive enough*
