Isotonic Solutions
have an equal amount of solutes and water so the osmotic pressure is equal and there is no movement of water.
hypotonic solutions
contains less solutes so water will move into a cell to dispense the concentration.
hypertonic solutions
contains more solutes so water will move to dilute the concentration.
filtration
Water and material move from an area of higher pressure to an area of lower pressure.
cytology
the study of cells
cell membrane
outer boundary of the cells, selectively permeable permits entrance and exit of some materials.
cytoplasm
watery solution of minerals and organic molecules that is found between the cell membrane and nucleus.
nucleus
control center of the cell responsible for reproduction suspended in cytoplasm
organelles
functional substances all the structures in the cytoplasm
mytochondria
powerhous of the cells cell respiration takes place here energy production site of atp production and storage
golgi apparatus
stores and packages seretions for discharge from the cell
involved in carbohydrate in manufacturing
lysosomes
oval sacs contain digestive enzymes that will destroy old worn out damages cells bacteria or foreign matter
ribosomes
site of protein synthesis
endoplasmic reticulum
network of membrane tubules roadway for transportation of materials used within the cells
rough er has ribosome attached
smooth er where cholesterol synthesis and fat metabolism occur.
cilia
hairlike threads sweep materials accross cell surfaces
flagella
tail like projections only on sperm cell provides motility for sperm cell
mitosis
cell divides for cell growth and maintenance
meiosis
involves reproduction process of cell division of the sex cells.
diffusion
involves passive transport no energy is required for this to occur
movement of molecules from one area to a greater concentration
solute
solid particles dissolved within a fluid
isotonic solution
has some concentration of Na as the red blood cell
diffusion
molecules move from higher concentration to lower
phagocytosis
engulfs bacteria
osmosis
diffusion of water molecules
benign
cells confined to local area
hypertonic solution
has a higher concentration of NA than a red blood cell
cancer
malignant tumor
mitosis
cell reproduction
active transport
needs ATP for energy
structures found in cytoplasm to help cells function are called
organlles
regulating transport of substances in and out of the cell is the
cell membrane
a structure that digests worn out cells and bacteria is called
lysosome
the function of golgi apparatus of the cell is
storing and packaging secretions
in mitosis the stage at which the nucleolus dissapears is
prophase
In the resting phase of cell division, an exact duplicate of each nuclear chromosome is made this is called
replication
two pairs of centrioles go to the opposite ends of the cell in what phase
prophase
the orderly process by which cells die is called
apoptosis
the unprogrammed death of cells and living tissue is called
necrosis
all cells undergo mitosis except
neurons of the nervous system
