Question
Answer
Prokaryote   They are generally smaller and simpler. They have genetic material that is contained in a nucleus  
🗑
Eukaryote   Generally larger and more complex. They contain a nucleus in which their genetic material is seperated from the rest of the cell  
🗑
Cell Theory   All living things are composed of cells, cells are the basic units of structure and function in living things, and new cells are produced from exisiting cells  
🗑
Cell   The basic untis of life  
🗑
Organelle   They act as if they are specilized organs  
🗑
Cytoplasm   Is the portion of the cell outside the nucleus  
🗑
Lipid Bilayer   The composion of nearly all cell membranes is a double layered sheet  
🗑
Diffusion   The particles tend to move from an area of high concentration to an area of lower concentration  
🗑
Equilibrium   when the concentration of a solute is the same throughout the solution  
🗑
Osmosis   The diffusion of water through a selectively premeable membrane  
🗑
Facilitated Diffusion   The movement of specific molecules across the cell membrane through protein channels  
🗑
Active Transport   Energy- Requiring process that moves material across a cell membrane  
🗑
Hypotonic Solution   The solution with less concentration of solutes  
🗑
Hypertonic Solution   The solution with the greater concentration of solutes  
🗑
Isotonic Solution   When the concentration of two solutions is the same  
🗑
Endocytosis   Process by which a cell takes material into the cell by infolding of the cell membrane  
🗑
Phagocytosis   Process by which extensions of cytoplasm surround and engulf large particles and take them into the cell  
🗑
Pinocytosis   Process by which a cell takes in liquid from the surrounding environment  
🗑
Exocytosis   Process by which a cell releases large amounts of material  
🗑
Compare and Contrast Eukaryote and Prokaryote   Eukaryotes: organism who's cells contain a nuclei. Prokaryotes: Unicellular organism lacking a nucleus  
🗑
3 principles of the cell theory   All living things are composed of cells, cells are the basic units of structure and function in living things, and new cells are produced from existing cells.  
🗑
Describe the structure and functions of the cell membrane   It regulates what enters and leaves the cell also provides protection and support  
🗑
Why does Active Transport require energy?   Because any activity requires energy  
🗑
How is ficilitated diffusion different from diffusion?   Facilitated diffusion is the movement of specific molecules across the cell membrane through protein channels.  
🗑
How do facilitated diffusion and active transport differ?   Active Transport is an energy required process that moves materials across a cell membrane. Facilitated Diffusion is the movement of specific materials through protein channels across the cell membrane  
🗑
Cell Wall and Vacuole function   Provide support and proteins for the cell. A vacuole stores materials such as water, salts, proteins, and carbohydrates  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
