what is a cell

a basic unit of life

what are the three statements that make up th cell theory


1. all living things are made up of cells


2. cells are the basic unit of structure and function in living things


3. new cells are produced from existing cells


how do microscope work

they use lenses to magnify the image of an object by focusing light or electrons

what features do all cells have

dna and a cell membrane

what is difference between prokaryotivc and eukaryoit cells

pro do not seperate genetic material in nucleus and euk do

What are the two major parts of the cell

nucleus and cytoplasm

what is the function of the mitochondria

they convert chemical energy that is formed into compounds that cells can use
why do u think it is important that cells membranes are selectively permissible.

it is important because it will only allow substances that are helpful and not harmful get in
cytoplasm

portio of the cell outside the nucleus.

organelles

the structures that are inside the cell

role of the nucleus

control center o fthe cell contain most of the cells DNA has instructions for making proeins and other important molecules
nuclear envelope

allows a steady stream of proteins RNA and other molecules to mov throught the Nuclear pores of the cell

chromosomes

carry the cells genetic imformation

Nucleolus

where the assembly of ribosomes begin

Vacuoles

store materials like water salts proteins and carbohydrates

Vesicles

store and move material between cell organelles and to and from the cell surface

Lysosomes

break down lipids carbohydrates and proteins that are used by the rest of the cell they also break down organelles that outlive their usefulness

cytoskeleton

helps the cell maintain its shape and is involved in moving the entire cell

micro filaments

thread likes structure of protein called actine support the cell help the cell move

centrioles

located near the nucleus help organize cell division

microtubules

made up of protein tubulin help maintain cell shape and important in cell division to separate chromosomes

what organelles help make and transfer proteins

ribosomes

ribosomes

small particles of RNA and protein in the cytoplasm they produce proteins by following instructions from DNA
endoplasmic reticulum

lipids of the cell membrane are assembled and proteins ae exported from the cell

what is the difference of Rough ER and smooth ER

rough contains ribosomes and smooth does not

Golgi apparatus

modifies sorts and packages proteins of other materials from the ER for storage inside the cell or release outside the cell

The process of making proteins


1. proteins are assembled on ribosomes


2. proteins bound to the rough ER


3. proteins carried from Rough ER to Golgi apparatus in vesicles


4. Golgi apparatus sorts and packages them into membrane bound vesicles


5. vesicles ship proteins in or out of the cell


chloroplast

capture energy from sunlight convert into food in process called photosynthesis
cell wall

supports shapes and protects the cell

do animal cells have cell walls


no

lipid bilayer
part of the cell membrane that gives its the flexible structure and strong barrier between a cell and its surroundings

cell membrane

regulates what enters and leaves the cell and protects and supports the cell.

store cleanup and support cell

vacuoles lysosomes cytoskeleton centrioles

build proteins

ribosomes endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus

capture and release energy

chloroplast mitochondria

cell boundaries

cell wall cell membrane

cell control center

nucleus

diffusion

When particles move from high concentration to an are of low concentration

passive transport

the movement of materials across the cell membrane without using cell energy

facilitated diffusion

the process in which molecules cannot directly diffuse across the membrane and have to pass through special protein channels

aquoporins

water channel proteins that allow water to pass right through them

Osmosis

diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane

difference between diffusion and osmosis

osmosis is the diffusion of water not solutes

isotonic

when water and sugar concentrations are the same on both sides of the membrane

hypertonic

more concentrated sugar solution compared to the dilute sugar solution

hypotonic

the dilute sugar solution `

active transport

movement of materials against a concentration difference that requires energy
