Unit 1 test Flashcards
This organelle modifies, sorts and packages proteins and other materials from the ER for either storage within the cell or secretion outside the cell.
Golgi apparatus
Type of cell that contains a nucleus
Eukaryote
Process that releases energy by breaking down glucose and other food molecules in the presence of oxygen
Cellular Respiration
What is the basic unit of life for all organisms
cells
What is the process by which a cell surrounds a substance, enclosing the substance in a portion of the membrane.
Endocytosis
small organelle filled with enzymes. digest or breaks down lipids, carbs, and proteins into small molecules that can be used by rest of cell
lysosome
This organelle is responsible for the synthesis of proteins
Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)
processes that don’t require oxygen and process that do require oxygen
aerobic/anaerobic
the division of a cell’s nucleus
mitosis
what is the network of thin, long, fibers that supports the cell called
cytoskeleton
process of glucose being broke in half, producing two molecules of pyruvic acid
Glycolysis
double layered sheet that makes up the cell membrane
lipid bilayer
The aerobic process that follows Krebs Cycle/Process that uses the high energy electrons from the Krebs cycle to convert ADP into ATP
ETC
Group of proteins that regulate cell growth
cyclins
what are the organelles that help assemble proteins?
Ribosomes
