2A Cells and Life

QuestionAnswer
Eukaryotic cell -Cells with nucleus.
Prokaryotic cell -Cells without nucleus.
Tissue -Groups of similar cells that work together to perform a certain job.
Organ -Group of tissue together.
Arrange from lowest to highest level of or organization: tissue, organ, cell -1 Cells -2 Tissue -3 Organ
If you are looking at 2 human cells and they look different explain Why? -They probably came from a different types of tissue. Cell from the same tissue perform the same job, therefore they look the same.
Cell membrane -Surrounds the cell and regulates what goes in and out. E and P.
Cells wall - Surrounds all cells and regulates what comes in and out. [made of lipids and protein].
Cytoplasm -inside of the cell material, excluding the nucleus.
Flagellum -whip-like structures that prokaryotic cells use to propel themselves through their environment.
DNA -Molecule that contains the important information for making proteins and helps regulate many cellular processes.
Chromosomes -Structure that contains a cells DNA.
Endoplasmic reticulum [E.R.] -Network of tubes in eukaryotic cells that help produce and transports proteins and other molecules throughout cells.
Golgi apparatus -Organism in the eukaryotic cell that modifies many proteins and packages them into small bubble-like structures called vesicles
Ribosomes -Small structures that assemble proteins found in both types of cells.
Cytoskeleton -Several types of long, thin fibers anchored to various parts of the cell that helps the cell maintain shape and charge shape.
Lysosomes -The break down and dispose of old cellular structures. They also speed up and slow down chemical reactions in the cell.
Mitochondria - Makes most of the cells ATP [molecule that provides energy].
Producers -Organisms that produce their own food
Photosynthesis -Process that plants use to turn carbon dioxide into glucose (sugar)
Steps of Photosynthesis Step 1 -Sunlight enters the chloroplast and is absorbed by the green pigment chlorphill
Step 2 - chlorophyll uses the energy from the sun to split water into protons, electrons and oxygen
step 3 -Protons and electrons enter the light - independent stage
step 4 -electrons and protons are used to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose, sugar cells use as food.
cellular respiration -the process in organisms of breaking down molecules to produce ATP
ATP - The molecule used to power many processes in the cell that needs chemical engergy
Bacteria Cellular Respiration -Prokaryotic cells perform cellular respiration in the cytoplasm instead of the mitochondria in eukaryotic cells
Steps of Celluar Respiration Step 1 -Glucose (sugar arrives in the cytoplasm and is broken down. This is an anaerobic process since it does not use oxygen
Step 2 -Fragments are carried into the mitochondria where they are used along with oxygen, to produce ATP. This is called a aerobic process since is uses oxygen.

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
