38 Cards in this Set

  • Front
  • Back

Cell membrane

Phospholipid bilayer, regulates passage of molecules

Smooth ER

No ribosome, intracellular transport, synthesizes lipids and detoxifies alcohol and drugs

Rough ER

Studded with ribosome, intracellular transport, protein synthesis

Ribosomes

Made of protein, proteins are synthesized at the ribosomes

Golgi apparatus

Not attached to nucleus, processes and packages substances produced by cell, produces vesicles and lysosomes

Vesicles

Stores and transports materials

Lysosomes

Contains digestive enzymes used for intracellular digestion, common in white blood cells

Mitochondria

Involved in cellular respiration

Nucleus

Controls cellular activities, contains chromosomes and DNA

Nucleolus

In nucleus, involved in production of RNA

Nuclear envelope

Membrane containing pores surrounding nucleus, pores allow mRNA to leave nucleus

Chromosomes

Made of DNA and protein, contains all of cells genetic info

Vacuole

Membranous sac, stores substance usually water

Cells unity&diversity

All cells have same organelles but have different number of organelles depending on function

Ensymbiotic hypothesis

Organelles began as free standing bacteria then started living together in colonies

Diffussion

Small molecules diffuse through phospholipid bilayer eg oxygen

Osmosis

Diffusion of water through semi permeable membrane

Hypnotic solution

Solution with lower solute concentration moves IN to the cell

Hypertonic solution

Solution with great solute concentration moves OUT of cell

Isotonic solution

Same concentration, doesn't move in or out

Carrier transport

Uses protein carrier, 2 types

Facilitated diffusion (transport)

High->low concentration, no energy

Active transport

Low to high concentration, requires energy

Exocytosis/endocytosis

Ingestion of large molecules by vesicles

Metabolism

Sum of all chemical reactions in body

Enzymes

Protein molecules that lower energy required for reaction to occur, all enzymes have optimum Ph

Lock and key model

Substrate enters active site then enzyme slightly Changes shape and substrate leaves, heat/Ph will change shape of active site

Optimum

Optimum Ph level, top of graph

Denaturing

When enzyme will no longer function

Enzyme facts

They are specific - one for every reaction, not used up in reaction, reactions occur in pathways

Chromosome

Made of DNA and protein, found in nucleus

Gene

Segment of chromosome that determines a trait

4 bases

Guanine, cytosine, adenine, thymine

Nucleotide

Both DNA and rna are made of nucleotides, molecular complex made of sugar, phosphate, and a base

Structure of DNA

-chain of nucleotides join together


-get a sugar-phosphate backbone


-complimentary base pairing


-Double strand twists to form double helix (stands held together by hydrogen bonds

DNA

Contains genetic information necessary for life and growth. Controls cells and replicates. Replication is necessary so every cell has dna

Watson and Crick

Tried to figure out why dna twisted but instead figured out base pairing.

Difference between prokaryotic and eukarytic cells

Eukarytic cells have a nucleus and organelles prokaryotic does not and only has ribosomes
