Intracellular

Inside cell

Extracellular

Outside cell

Passive means of transport

No energy required, needs concentration gradiant, simple diffusion

Osmosis

Diffusion of water across a differentially permeable membrane. (High to low) no energy required

Active means of transport

Requires energy, uses carrier proteins to move material across concentration gradiant. (Low to high)

Vesicle transport

Phagocitic (in) secretory (out) needs energy to form and move vesicle

Endocytosis

Inport materials from outside cell

Phagocytosis

"Cell eating" cell takes in large particles

Vacuole

Large vesicle, srotage

Pinocytosis

Small particles of fluid that contain solute.

Receptor

Mediated endocytosis, specific receptors binding into coded vesicle

Exocytosis

Exporting out of cell, secretory vesicles move material cells have made.

Tonicity

Solutions with various types of solutes and how they affect cells *varying concentrations of solutes*

Isotonic

SAME solute concentration as cell (no change in cell appearance )

Hypertonic

HIGHER solute concentration than cell ( cell dehydrates, "crenation" )

Hypotonic

LOWER solute concentration than the cell (cell takes on too much water and ruptures... "hemolysis"

Autophasia

Digesting cellular contents "self eating "

Apoptosis

Programmed cell death

Catalase

Enzyme peroxosomes produce to reverse hydrogen peroxide.

Mitochondria

Atp by aerobic cellular respiration, breaks down glucose molecules to produce atp. Atp produced on cristae. Has it's own dna

Cytoskeleton

1.)Microfilaments ( made of actin filimants) 2.) Microtubules (largest if the 3, cylenders of protiens, fast assemble and disassemble 3.) Intermediate filament (produce structural stability made of keratin)

Cilia

Have microtubules in them, involved in movement, extension of cell membrane

Flagella

Movement, has microtubules, found in sperm, motor molecule is dining

Organization of dna

Nucleotides are base of dna & rna, adenine, thymine, guanine, cytosine (in rna uracil) held together by hydrogen bonds. (**Adenine always goes with thymine**) (**cytosine always with guanine**) in RNA adenine goes with uracil!

Nucleosomes

Form of dna wraps around histones

Histones

Dna molecules (packaging protein, 8 of them)

Chromosomes

Condensed chromatin

Chromatin

Condensed dna wrapped around histones

Genome

Entire complimeof dna

Dna replication

Occurs during S phase, requires helicase and dna polymerase (helicase unwindes helix) ( dna polymerase start reassembling the strands as two new identical copies)

Semiconservative

Conserving 1 strand from original dna strand to make 2 identical copies

How many chromosomes does a human have?

46, 23 homologous pais, 1 set from each parent

Helicase

Enzyme that functions to separate the two dna strands of double helix during dna replication

Dna polymerase

Enzyme that functions in adding new nucleotides to a growing strand of dna during dna replication

Replication

Helicase and dna polymerase are used to unwind and copy identical dna strands

Translation

Process of producing a protein from the nucleotide sequence code of an mRNA transcript

Transcription

Process of producing an mRNA molecule that is complementary to a particular gene of dna

Gene expression

When gene is made (synthosized) every triplet is a code for a certain protein.

Cell cycle

Interphase and mitosis G1, S, G2,

Interphase

Time when cell is doing its normal job but also preparing for division

G1

Increasing in size, increasing # of organelles

S

Growing and replicating (synthesizing ) dna

G2

Making final preparation for division- synthesizing materials (protiens, enzymes, microtubules, actin)

Check point

After each phase there are check points to ensure cell is progressing properly. Controlled by CDK ( cyclin-dependent kinase) cyclin- one group of protiens that function in the progression of cell cycle. Kinase- one group of enzymes associated with cyclins that help them perform their functions

Mitosis

Cell division for growth and repair


Prophase


Metaphase


Anaphase


Telephase


Followed by cytokinesis

Metaphase

Chromosomes are lined up at the metaphase plate, each sister chromatid is attached to spindle fiber originating from opposite poles

Anaphase

Centromeres split in two, sister chromatids ( now daughter chromatin) are seperated and pulled toward opposite poles, spindle fibers begin to elongate cell

Cytokinesis

Cleavage furrow seperates the daughter cells. Microfilamints are what makes the pintchig occur

Differentation

Cells become highly specialized but were produced from generic cells. Change in shape, function ( specialized from unspecialized)

Totipotent cells

First embryotic cells, eventually can become any type of cell by differentiation.

Pluripotent embryonic stem cells

Endoderm line, mesoderm line, ectoderm line

Plurapotent germ layers

Ectoderm (outside of body, skin & nervous) endoderm ( inside body, digestive tract & glands) mesoderm ( development of eternal organs , muscles, blood, bone, major organs )
