Means "same condition"; keeps the cell's condition stable
|
HOMEOSTASIS
|
|
Molecules move until the are equal, dynamic means moving
|
DYNAMIC EQUILIBRIUM
|
|
The movement of molecules from where there are a lot to where there are a few or none
|
DIFFUSION
|
|
When molecules move from where there are a lot to where there are few on none WITHOUT using energy
|
PASSIVE TRANSPORT
|
|
can go through
|
PERMEABLE
|
|
can't go through
|
IMPERMEABLE
|
|
Allows some things to go through and keeps other things from going through
|
SELECTIVELY PERMEABLE
|
|
The movement of water across a membrane from where there is a lot to where there is less or none
|
OSMOSIS
|
|
When a plant loses water and wilts
|
PLASMOLYSIS
|
|
When a plant swells up because it has soaked up a lot of water
|
TURGOR PRESSURE
|
|
Sugar that the body uses for energy, carried by the blood to all the cells
|
GLUCOSE
|
|
When molecules are made to move from where there are a few to where there is more; this requires energy to be used
|
ACTIVE TRANSPORT
|
|
When materials enter a cell
|
ENDOCYTOSIS
|
|
When materials exit a cell
|
EXOCYTOSIS
|
|
is made of stored energy, when a bond is broken, energy is released
|
BOND
|
|
short hairs that are used to move cells
|
CILIA
|
|
breaking down food to release energy
|
DIGEST - DIGESTION
|
|
compounds that help a reaction occur, like digesting a piece of food
|
ENZYMES
|
|
green, contain chlorphyll, used to make food for the plant
|
CHLOROPLAST
|
|
surrounds a plant cell to support it
|
CELL WALL
|
|
surrounds the vacuole to protect it and allows things to go in and out
|
VACUOLAR MEMBRANE
|
|
holds stuff for the cell; can hold food, water, and waste
|
VACUOLE
|
|
same as genes or chromosomes
|
DNA
|
|
surrounds the nucleus to protect it and allow things to go in and out
|
NUCLEAR MEMBRANE
|
|
control center of the cell, has DNA
|
NUCLEUS
|
|
long, whip-like tail structure that propels some protists through the water
|
FLAGELLA
|
|
powerhouses of the cell, where energy is produced for the cell
|
MITOCHONDRIA
|
|
flat sacS, take the proteins from the ribosomes and puts them together correctly so the cell can use them
|
GOLGI BODIES
|
|
round, attached to endoplasmic reticulum, reads the message from the DNA and makes proteins
|
RIBOSOME
|
|
means "inside jelly maze", acts like a tube to take things around the cell, sort of like the cell highwary
|
ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM
|
|
a stack of genes put together; also called DNA
|
CHROMOSOMES
|
|
control center of the cell, has DNA
|
NUCLEUS
|
|
jelly-like stuff in a cell
|
CYTOPLASM
|
|
surrounds a cell to protect it and allows things to go in and out (homeostasis)
|
CELL MEMBRANE
|
|
mulitcellular, heterotrophic, eukaryotic, no cell wall
|
ANIMAL (CELL)
|
|
multicellular, autotrophic, eukaryotic, with a cell wall
|
PLANT (CELL)
|
