who was the cell theory developed by?
schleiden and schwann
what 3 things does it state?
1) all living things consist of cells
2) cells are the basic function and structure of things
3) all cells come from other cells- rudolph virchuw
are eukaryotic cells or prokaryotic cells bigger in size??
eukaryotic cells
in a electron microscope the cells must be....
dead
what is the process of cell fractionation?
1) homogenate
2) low speed
3) supertanant denatures
4) high speed
what is the function of the nucleus?
controlling center of the cell
what is the function of the nucleolus?
site of RNA synthesis and storage
what is the function of the mitochondria?
powerhouse of the cell
what is the function of the lysosomes?
digestive enzymes
what cell are plastids in...plant of animal?
plant only
what is the function of the centrioles?
helps the cell divide
what cell are peroxisomes in...plant or animal?
animal only
what did Overton determine?
that the membrane is composed of lipids
who determined the membrane contained two layers of amphipathic phospholipid molecules?
gorter and grendel
danielli and davson determined what?
the membrane is a phospholipid bilayer sandwhiched between 2 layers of globular protein
singer and nicolson determined what?
the fluid mosaic model
why is the membrane called the fluid mosaic model?
because proteins move smoothly through the membrane in a constantly changing pattern.
glycolipids and glycoproteins help do what with other cells?
they are signatures, help cells recognize other cells
passive transport is what?
from ---------- to ---------of concentration
types of passive transport are?
NO energy
greater to lesser
diffusion, osmosis, and facilitated diffusion
what is diffusion?
from greater to lesser concentration, movement is random and will continue until equalibruim is reached
No membrane is needed
the diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane from greater to lesser concentration is what?
osmosis/ equilibrium might not be reached
facilitated diffusion?
diffusion of solutes across a selectively permeable membrane with the help of transport proteins (carrier molecules) in the membrane. NO energy required.
an energy requiring process with the breakdown of ATP?
for every 3 ------ 2 of ------- are pumped into.
some examples of active transport are?
active transport
soduim and potassium.
electrochemical gradient, electrogenic pump, and cotransport.
all cells have ------ across their plasma membranes?
voltages
a voltage is also called a?
membrane potential
electrochemical gradiant?
ions may not always move down their concentration gradient but they always move down their electrochemical gradient.
electrogenic pump is major in what cell?
and proton pump is major in what cell?
animal
plant
cotransport?
when a molecule tries to go across a membrane but cant, but then another molecule hooks up with the other one and then they can go in.
process of importing macromoleculs into a cell by forming vesicles derived from the cell membrane?
endocytosis
examples of endocytosis are?
phagocytosis, pinocytosis, and recceptor-mediated cytosis.
