|
What are two chracteristics of viruses that make them seem like living things? |
- made of DNA - has protein |
|
What are two characetristic of viruses that make them seem like non-living things? |
- no metabolism - no need for water |
|
What is the function of a mitochondria? |
- makes energy available for the rest of the cell |
|
What is the function of a golgi apparatus/complex? |
- modifies, packages, and sorts proteins into sacs called vesicles |
|
What is the function of a plasma membrane? |
- to determine/control what goes in and out of a cell |
|
What is the function of a ribosome? |
- acts as the site for protein synthesis |
|
What is the function of a rough endoplasmic reticulum? |
- acts as the site for protein sythesis |
|
What is the function of a smooth endoplasmic reticulum? |
- detoxifies harmful substances in the liver, synthesizes coples carbohydrates and lipids |
|
What is the function of a nucleus? |
- to instruct the cell of which protein to make |
|
What is the function of a cilia? |
- aids in locomotion and feeding, sweeps substances along the surface |
|
What is the function of a flagella? |
- aids in locomotion and feeding |
|
What is the function of microtubules and microfilaments? |
- assist in moving substances, enable the cell to move, allow organelles to move |
|
What is the function of a lysosome? |
- digest bacteria, viruses, worn-out organelles, and food particles |
|
What is the function of a vacuole? |
- temporarily stores materials such as food or enzymes |
|
What part of the plasma membrane keeps large polar molecules from entering the cell? |
Lipid tails (this is because the tails are non-polar) |
|
Why is water able to enter the cell? |
It is very small, and can therefore go through a plasma membrane. |
|
What role do transport proteins and carrier proteins play in selective permeability? |
They allow large polar moelcules to leave and enter the cell. |
|
List two diferences between active transport and passive transport. |
- active requires energy - active travels from low to high concentration while passive travels from high to low concentration |
|
What is the difference between a prokaryotic and a eukaryotic cell? |
Prokaryotic cells have no membrane-bound organelles, while eukaryotic do. |
|
List three differences between plant cells and animal cells. |
- animal has no cell wall - animal had no choloroplast - thre is one large vauole in plant cells, and several smaller vacuoles in animal cells |
|
