What are the 3 States of Matter?
Solid, Liquid & Gas
Has a definate shape & volume. Ex. bones, protein that make up a cell membrane
Solid
Has a definate volume but assumes the shape of the container. Ex. plasma and tissue fluid
Liquid
Has an indefinate shape & volume. Oxygen & C02
Gas
Does not alter the chemical compostion of the substance? Ex. Chewed food
Physcial change
The composition of the substance is altered or changed? Ex. Swallow food / digestion and metabolism of the food we take in?
Chemical Change
The Cells ability to organize itself and group into tissues and organs and systems.
Organization
The cells ability to increase in size and number.
Growth
The cells ability to increase the # of organisms. some cells reproduce more easily.
Reproductoin
**The ability to adjust to external changes. It's very important. Ex. Temp changes will affect homeostatis.
Adaptability
The ability to respond to a stimulus. Ex. nerve & muscle tissue.
Irritability/Excitibility
the ability of a cell to change its shape. Impt.for movement.
Contractility
Waste being release. A cells ability to release its waste if not toxins cause problems
Excretary
The cells ability to release useful materials. Ex. Saliva.
Secretory
The ability of a cell to transmit an impulse. Ex. Muscle & Nerve Cells
Conductivity
The ability of a cell to carry out all the chemical reaction that is necessary for the survival of the living organisms.
Metabolism
2 types of metabolism
Catabolism
Anabolism
Destructive or breaking down complex substances are broken down into simpler substances and causes a release of energy. Ex. Digestion
CATABOLISM
Buidling up. Simple substanced and make them more complex. Uses energy Ex. Cell Reproduction (Mitosis)
ANABOLISM
Little Organs
Organells
Outermost boundry of the cell. Thin delicate membrance that surrounds every cell.
Cell Membrane
Function of the cell membrane is?
Protection
The cell membrane is picky - it only allows certain things to go in. Its called?
Semi-Permeable (Selectively Permeable)
The control center of the cell. Its governs all the activities of the cell.
Nucleus
Major role in cell reproduction/division.
Centrioles
The primary fluid inside the cell membrane & outside the nucleus
Cytoplasm
Cytoplasm Components
Na, CA, K, Iron and Iodine
Plays a role in water balance in and out of the cell
Calcium
Important in trasporting O2 in the body cells
Iron
Important cytoplasm component in regulating metabolism
Iodine
Produce protein in the cell. Essential for cell reproduction and growth
Ribosomes
The transporation system within the cytoplasm
Endosplasmic Reticulum
Does not have ribosomes attached to it.
Smooth E.R.
The suicide beds.Sacs contain digestive enzymes. When the cell dies these powerful enzymes breakdown whatever remnants need to be removed and excreted by the body.
Lysosomes
cellular energy
ATP - immediate source of energy
Powerhouse of the Cell. Small glandular structures that provide cellular energy
Mitochondrion
Layers of membrane that package and enclose susbstances that are excreted from the cell. It's like a packaging plant
Golgi Bodies/Golgi Apparatus
Small hairlike extension that sweek foreign substances across.
Cilia
Tail of the sperm cell. This is the only one that has flagella.
Flagella
These are only found on nerve cells.
Myelin Sheath & Neurillema
Neurillema are only found in some ? cells. Its purpose is to allow for repair on a nerve cell do not regenerate.
Peripheral Nerves
What are the 2 types of cell reproduction?
Mitosis
Meiosis
Which reproduction is essential for growth and repair of tissues?
Mitosis
Which cell reproduction has 46 chromosomes and will divide to form 2 identical cells each with 46 chromosomes
Mitosis
The 5 phases of Mitosis are?
Intraphase, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase and Telaphase.
Which cell reproduction only occurs between gametes (or sex cells)
Meiosis
Which cell reproduction has 23 chromosomes?
Meiosis
Referred as "Cell Eating"
Phagocytosis
Referred as "Cell Drinking"
Pinocytosis
The movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. The reason is to create balance.
Diffusion
A type of diffusion that involves a semi-permeable membrane. Ex. The cell
Osmosis
The movement of molecules from an area of higher pressure to an area of lower pressure. An ex. is gravity
Filtration
