|
ADENMRRSSS
Absorption Digestion Excretion Nutrition Movment (motion) Reproduction Resperation Sensitivity Secretion Synthesis |
|
Absorption
|
A cell Absorbes stuff
|
|
Digestion
|
A cell brakes down stuff
|
|
Nutrition
|
Usefull things to the cell
|
|
Movment (Motion)
|
When a cell moves
|
|
Reproduction
|
A cell reproduces
|
|
Resperation
|
Directally related to Catabolism
|
|
Sensitivity
|
(responce) a cell antisipates for something (like adrenilin)
|
|
Synthesis
|
To produce or to make (directaly related to Anabolism)
|
|
Secretion
|
Like saliva or tears
|
|
Excretion
|
Crap (A cell excrets something that has no use for any more)
|
|
Metabolism
|
The sum of all the chemical and Physiological processes of a cell(or body or Organism)
|
|
Thyroid glands
|
Regulates Metabolism
|
|
Anabolism
|
Constructive phase of metabolism
|
|
Catabolism
|
Destructive Phase of metabolism
|
|
Protoplasm
|
Everything inside the Plasma membrane
|
|
Nucleoplasm
|
Everything inside the nuclear membrane
|
|
Cytoplasm
|
Everything outside the nuclear membrane and inside the plasma membrane.
|
|
Endoplasm
|
Where organells are found (Inner part of the Cytoplasm)
|
|
Ectoplasm
|
Outer part of the Cytoplasm
|
|
Three domains of life
|
Bacteria
Eukarya Archaea |
|
Plasmids
|
Tiny circular piece of DNA that are empty in the middle.
|
|
Restriction Enzymes
|
Highly specific enzymes.
Defensive meckanism for bacteria. Cut DNA palandrome. |
|
Diffusion
|
The random movement of molecules moving from area of high concentration to area of low concentration.
|
|
Concentration Gradient
|
When molecules go from weak to stronger.
i.e. You would smell a skunk more if you were touching the skunk then if you were farther away. |
|
Osmosis
|
Movment of H2O molecules from a area of high concentration to a area of low concentration across a selectivly permable membrane.
