Cell Structure And Function

Front 1

Cell Theory

Back 1

all living things are composed of cells and that cells come only from other cells

Front 2

Cytoplasm

Back 2

Shows the content of the cell

Front 3

Plasma Membrane

Back 3

it regulates the movement of molecules into and out of the cytoplasm

Front 4

What are the two types of cells

Back 4

Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic

Front 5

What are one of the basic differences between the two types of cells

Back 5

Prokaryotic cells do not contain nuclei while eukaryotic cells do contain nuclei

Front 6

Organelles

Back 6

are small membranous bodies, each with a specific structure and function.

Front 7

Cytoplasam

Back 7

the material bounded by plasma membrane and cell wall

Front 8

Differences in animal cell vs. plant cell

Back 8

Plant Cells - large central vacuole, cell wall, chloroplast

Animal Cells - small vacuoles, only cell membrane no cell wall, centrioles

Front 9

Define diffusion

Back 9

is the movement of molecules from a higher to a lower concentration until equilibrium is achieved

Front 10

osmosis

Back 10

is the diffusion of water across the plasma membrane of a cell

Front 11

Tonicity

Back 11

is the relative concentration of solute and therfore also of solvent outside the cell compared to the inside of the cell

Front 12

Isotonic

Back 12

has the same solute concentration as the inside of the cell

Front 13

Hypertonic

Back 13

has a higher solute concentration then the cell

Front 14

Hyoptonic

Back 14

has a lower solute concentration than the cell

Front 15

Euglena

Back 15

is a unicellular oraganism
