Field of view |
More detail = smaller field of view Less detail = bigger field of view |
|
Osmosis |
- H2O travelling across cell membrane - Passive transport - High to low concentration - No extra energy needed
3 types:
Isotonic - H2O moves in and out of cell equally Hypotonic - H2O enters cell Hypertonic - H2O leaves cell |
|
Cell membrane transportation |
|
|
Total magnification |
Power of the objective (low medium high) × power of eyepiece (10) |
|
Plant and animal cells labeled |
Refer to Pinterest and diagram sheet |
|
Abiogenisis vs biogenisis |
Abiogenisis: non living things create living things Biogenisis: living things create living things |
|
Cell theory |
All organisms are made of cells Cells are a basic unit of life New cells come from pre-existing cells |
|
Cytoplasm function |
A jelly like substance that supports the organelles inside The "backround" |
|
Nucleus function |
Controls cell activity "The nucleus takes over controlling everything" |
|
Chromosomes function |
DNA |
|
Endoplasmic reticulum function |
A system of channels from the nucleus Rough ER: ribosomes attached (small circles/dots) Smooth ER: no ribosomes |
|
Golgi Apparatus function |
Packages things that are made in the cell to be transported to another organelle or outside of the cell (Ex. Enzymes, proteins, hormones) |
|
Lysosomes function |
Break down food particles and destroy old, worn-out cell parts |
|
Ribosomes function |
Makes protein out of amino acids |
|
Mitochondria function |
Converts food into energy for the cell "Powerhouse of the cell" |
|
Chloroplasts function |
ONLY FOUND IN PLANT CELLS absorb sunlight and convert into glucose (photosynthesis) |
|
Central vacuole function |
ONLY FOUND IN PLANT CELLS Stores water and other materials (If your plant droops down it means the central vacuole is empty or very little filled and you should water your plant!) |
|
Cell wall function |
ONLY FOUND IN PLANT CELLS Protects cell |
|
Centriole function |
ONLY FOUND IN ANIMAL CELLS cell division |
|
Scanning electron microscope (SEM) |
3 dimensional Surface image, not detailed |
|
Transmission electron microscope (TEM) |
3 dimensional Very detailed, but small field of view |
|
Confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM) |
3 dimensional and very detailed, large field of view |
|
Cell membrane |

|
SA/V ratio and diffusion |
As the cell gets larger the volume increases faster than the surface area
Since the surface area is the location where materials enter and leave the cell, when the volume increases faster than the surface area, the cell's metabolic needs cannot be met
As the cell gets smaller, the SA/V ratio increases
If oxygen were diffusing into the cell, the smallest cell would receive the greatest oxygen to all parts
In order for the diffusion needs to be met properly, the cell divides instead of getting bigger and bigger |
|
Organism organization |
Organelle Cell Tissue Organ System (OCTOS) |
|
Multicellular organisms |
As organisms grow larger, they must become multicellular Different cells become specialized to perform specific tasks |
|
Main job of the leaf |
To capture the Sun's energy to produce food for the plant Takes in: sunlight, carbon dioxide, water Gives out: oxygen, glucose |
|
Photosynthesis equation |
Not balanced: CO2+H2O>C6H12O6+O2
Balanced: 6CO2+6H2O>C6H12O6+6O2
"6 in front of everything except for the long part" |
|
Stomata function Specialization of leaf cells |
Let's gases in and out of leaf |
|
Why is the stomata on the underside/bottom of the leaf? |
So they don't dry out from sunlight |
|
Guard cells function Specialization of leaf cells |
Opens and closes to allow/not allow water and gases to pass/not pass into the stomata |
|
Spongy mesophyll function Specialization of leaf cells |
Contains chloroplasts to carry out photosynthesis Loosely packed |
|
Phloem Specialization of leaf cells |
Transports sugar from leaves to rest of plant |
|
Xylem Specialization of leaf cells |
Transports water and minerals from roots to leaves |
|
Vascular bundle Specialization of leaf cells |
Transport highways throughout the leaf "Viens" |
|
Palisade cells Specialization of leaf cells |
Main cells for photosynthesis LOTS of chloroplasts Tightly packed |
|
Epidermis Specialization of leaf cells |
Transparent layer to allow light to pass through to the underlying layer |
|
Cuticle Specialization of leaf cells |
Waxy coating Protects leaf from water loss |
|
Root hairs |
Increase surface area for osmosis |
|
Root pressure |
Soil outside root is hypotonic to root cell so water enters cell by osmosis |
|
COhesion of water molecules |
Water sticks to other water molecules in the middle |
|
ADhesion of water molecules |
Water sticks to inside walls of xylem |
|
Transpiration of water out of leaves |
The water concentration is higher inside the leaf cells than in the air
Water moves from an area of high concentration (hypotonic inside the cells) to an area of lower concentration (hypertonic outside the cells) |
|
Phloem transport |
1. Sugar is produced in the leafs 2. Sugars are actively transported from the leaves to the phloem tissue 3. Once the sugars are pumped into the phloem tissue, the water follows due to osmosis 4. The sugar/water moves from high to low pressure (down to the roots) |
|
Semi - permeable membrane |
Only certain particles can move in and out of the cell |
|
Reverse osmosis |
Contaminated water is forced through the semi - permeable membrane allows water molecules through, but traps bacteria |
|
Medication enclosed in liposomes |
Keeps body safe from irritating/bad tasting medications when taking an oral medication |
|
Lenticels |
Lens shaped openings in the stem and roots of plants which allows gas flow |
|
Tropism |
Plant growth due to stimulus 3 types |
|
Gravitropism |
Plant growth due to gravity Positive gravitropism: towards/with gravity (ex. Roots growing down) Negative gravitropism: away/not with gravity (ex. Stems growing up) |
|
Phototropism |
Plant growth due to the the light direction Plants will automatically grow towards the light Good for photosynthesis |
|
Thigmotropism |
Plant growth due to touch/contact (Ex. Vines on wall) |
