cell theory (3)
-all organisms are made of one or more cells
-the cell is the smallest unit of life
-all new cells come from preexisting cells
animal cell parts (10)
1. cell membrane
2. cytoplasm
3. endoplasmic reticulum
4. golgi complex
5. nucleus (nuclear membrane, nucleolus, dna)
6. mitochondria
7. ribosomes
8. vacuoles
9. lysosomes
10. centriole
plant cell parts (10)
a) cell membrane
b) cytoplasm
c) endoplasmic reticulum
d) golgi complex
e) nucleus (nuclear membran, nucleolus, genetic material)
f) mitochondria
g) vacuale
h) cell wall
i) chloroplast
cell membrane
a flexible covering surrounding every cell made up of layers of linked molecules, that protects the inside of a cell from the environment form the outside of the cell.
cell wall
a rigid outer layer of every plant cell surrounding the cell membrane that maintains the shape of the cell
cytoplasm
a thick fluid made up of mostly water located in every cell in which organelles are suspended
cytoskeleton
a network of fibers found in animal cells that play a role in muscle contraction, cell division, cell movement and maintenance of cell shape
organelles
structures in the cytoplasm that have specific functions
vacuole (animal)
the storage organelles of a cell that contain food molecules, water or waste products
vacuole (plant)
a large organelle that stores water and other molecules that are important for a plant cells
chloroplasts
an organelle found in plant cells that us light energy to make food from water and carbon dioxide
mitochondria
membrane-bound organelles found in all cells that transform the unusable energy in food molecules into a form of usable energy. (also called the power plants of a cell)
nucleus
a large organelle inside most cells that contains the genetic material and is called the control center of the cell
prokaryotic cell
a cell without a nucleus and most other organelles or otherwise known as bacteria
eukaryotic cell
a cell with a nucleus and other organelles
parts of the eye
a) cornea
b) pupil
c) iris
d) lens
e) retina
f) optic nerve
path of light in the eye
1. cornea
2. iris/pupil
3. lens
4. retina
5. optic nerve
cornea
a transparent layer that causes light rays to bend as they enter the eye
pupil
the opening into the eye
iris
expands and contracts to control the amount of light that enters the eye
lens
transparent structure that changes shape to form an image on the retina
retina
a thin layer that contains light-sensitive cells
optic nerve
carries signals form the retina to the brain
refraction
occurs when a light ray changes direction as it passes from one material to another
reflection
when a light ray strikes a surface and is redirected depending on the initial direction
photosynthesis
a series of chemical reactions that makes food for a plant
cellular respiration
a series of chemical reactions that transforms energy in food molecules to usable energy, ATP
diffusion
the process by which molecules tend to move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.
osmosis
the diffusion of water molecules through a selectively permeable membrane
passive transport
the movement of materials through a cell membrane without using energy
active transport
the movement of materials through a cell membrane using energy.
methods of active transport
1) transport proteins in the cell membrane pick up molecules outside the cell and carry them in
2) engulfing, in which the cell membrane surround or engulfs a particle
nuclear membrane
surrounds the nucleus; allows certain substances to pass between the nucleus and the rest of the cell
nucleolus
organelle found in the nucleus in which the production of ribosomes takes place
chromosomes
structures made of long chains of DNA located inside the nucleus
vacuole
organelle which stores water and plant substances
smooth endoplasmic reticulum
organelle which makes lipids and gets rid of chemicals and poisons
rough endoplasmic reticulum
organelle which makes and modifies proteins
ribosome
a small structure without a membrane, that are sometimes attached to the endoplasmic reticulum.
lysosome
stores digestive enzymes
centriole
cylindrical structures composed of groupings of microtubes and are found in animal cells and play a role for cell division
1. Naproxen
a. Other drugs for aborting migraines NSAID
cilium
hairlike projections on the outside of cells that move in a wave like manner
vesicle
transports substances
steps of cellular respiration
1. glycolysis breaks down a gluclose molecule into 2 smaller molecules
2. the maller molecules are broken down into molecules of carbon dioxide(waste product) in the mitochondria
3. the electrons and presence of oxygen produce large amounts of ATP and water
