CELLS Terms: Organelle: a specialized part of a cell having some specific function; a cell organ Cell Wall the definite boundary or wall that is part of the outer structure of certain cells, as a plant cell. Cellulose The substance which constitutes the essential part of the solid framework of plants, of ordinary wood, linen, paper, etc. It is also found to a slight extent in certain animals, as the tunicates. Cell Membrane the semipermeable membrane enclosing the cytoplasm of a cell. Cytoplasm the cell substance between the cell membrane and the nucleus, containing the cytosol, organelles, cytoskeleton, and various particles. Mitochondria an organelle in the cytoplasm of cells that functions in energy production. Endoplasmic Reticulum a network of tubular membranes within the cytoplasm of the cell, occurring either with a smooth surface (smooth endoplasmic reticulum) or studded with ribosomes (rough endoplasmic reticulum), involved in the transport of materials. Ribosome a tiny, somewhat mitten-shaped organelle occurring in great numbers in the cell cytoplasm either freely, in small clusters, or attached to the outer surfaces of endoplasmic reticula, and functioning as the site of protein manufacture. Golgi Body an organelle, consisting of layers of flattened sacs, that takes up and processes secretory and synthetic products from the endoplasmic reticulum and then either releases the finished products into various parts of the cell cytoplasm or secretes them to the outside of the cell. Chloraplast a plastid containing chlorophyll. Chlorophyll the green coloring matter of leaves and plants, essential to the production of carbohydrates by photosynthesis, and occurring in a bluish-black form. Vacuole a membrane-bound cavity within a cell, often containing a watery liquid or secretion. Lysosome a cell organelle containing enzymes that digest particles and that disintegrate the cell after its death. Nucleus a central part about which other parts are grouped or gathered. Nuclear Pore any of numerous structures with complex openings in a nuclear membrane which allow passage of molecules between the nucleus and surrounding cytoplasm; any of the numerous perforations in a nuclear membrane which allow materials to flow in and out. Nuclear Membrane the double membrane surrounding the nucleus within a cell. Chromatin the readily stainable substance of a cell nucleus, consisting of DNA, RNA, and various proteins, that forms chromosomes during cell division. Nucleolus A small, typically round granular body composed of protein and RNA in the nucleus of a cell. It is usually associated with a specific chromosomal site and involved in ribosomal RNA synthesis and the formation of ribosomes. Tissue an aggregate of similar cells and cell products forming a definite kind of structural material with a specific function, in a multicellular organism. Organ a grouping of tissues into a distinct structure, as a heart or kidney in animals or a leaf or stamen in plants, that performs a specialized task. Organ System A system of organs forming an organism Concepts/Skills: (examples: know the order of the phases of mitosis, steps to writing a Punnett square, how to use a dichotomous key, etc) Diagrams: Sample questions: 1.What is the “Powerhouse” of the cell? 2.What role does the cell membrane have? 3.Where does most of the cells energy come from? 4.What is the “Mailroom” of the cell 5.What is the gel-like fluid in which many organelles are found? 6.What are the two main differences between plant and animal cells? 7.What role do chloraplasts do in the plant cell? 8.Where can you find ribosomes? 9.How does a vacuole contribute to the cell? 10.What is the difference between a smooth endoplasmic reticulum and the rough endoplasmic reticulum? TRANSPORT OF SUBSTANCES Terms: Osmosis, Diffusion, Passive Transport, Active Transport, Selective Permeability, Concentration Gradient Content: Diffusion - substances can move in and out of cells by diffusion, osmosis, or active transport. Diffusion is the main method. This is when molecules move from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules through a selectively permeable membrane. Because cells cannot function properly without adequate water, many cellular processes depend on osmosis. There are two types of transport. One of them is active transport. Active transport is the movement of materials through a cell membrane using cellular energy. It requires the cell to use its own energy, while passive transport does not. Passive transport the movement of dissolved materials through a cell membrane without using cellular energy. If something is selectively permeable, it can choose what passes in and out of it. Sample Questions: 1) What is the movement of dissolved materials through a cell membrane without using cellular energy? 2) Define the word selectively permeable. 3) True of False? The molecules move to the area with higher concentration. 4) What is engulfing? 5) Does water pass easily in and out of cells? MITOSIS Terms: Cell Cycle Interphase Prophase Metaphase Anaphase Telophase Cytokinesis Chromosome Replication Somatic cells DNA molecule Nitrogen Bases Content: The purpose of cell division and somatic cells. Phases of mitosis (prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase? Animal cell mitosis versus plant cell mitosis (microscope images) DNA replication during interphase Structure of a DNA molecule Nitrogen bases and pairing (A, C, G, T) Concepts/Skills: 6 Stages of Mitosis 1. Interphase- DNA and cell structures replicate 2. Prophase-Chromatin forms chromosomes and centrioles form (nuclear envelope breaks down) 3. Metaphase-Chromosomes line up along the middle and spindle fibers attach to them 4. Anaphase-Chromosomes separate and go to opposite ends 5. Telophase-Chromosomes unwind and cells start to separate Diagrams: Sample questions: 1. What are the parts of a chromosome? 2. What is a somatic cell? 3. What is the purpose of mitosis? 4.

What are the DNA nitrogen bases? 10. What does DNA stand for? MEIOSIS Terms: Crossing over Diploid Haploid Gamete Meiosis Punnett square Codominance Incomplete dominance Genotype Content: Meiosis creates reproductive haploid cells, or gametes. These gametes are more commonly known as sex cells. The process to make these gametes include these phases: Interphase, Prophase I, Metaphase I, Anaphase I, and Telophase/Cytokinesis. Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase and Telophase/Cytokinesis all occur twice. Concepts/Skills: In Interphase, the chromosomes double and in Prophase I, crossing over occurs and the chromosomes become tetrads. In Metaphase I, the tetrads line up and then in Anaphase I, they divide. Then Cytokinesis happens and the one cell divides into two. Each cell has a chromosome pair instead of just one chromosome like Mitosis. The same process, but without Interphase, occur again and when Cytokinesis happens, then there are four cells with one chromosome, which makes the cells haploid. Sample questions: 1. What happens in Prophase 1? 2. What happens in Meiosis that doesn’t happen in Mitosis? 3. What is a haploid cell? 4. What is a gamete? 5. What is the purpose of crossing over? 6. What is the purpose of Meiosis? 7. How many chromosomes are in the finished products of Meiosis? 8. What is the importance of genetic diversity? 9. Which phase is not repeated twice? 10. What is the end product of Meiosis? Diagrams shown below: GENETICS Terms: Cross pollination: taking pollen from one plant and using it to fertilize another plant Heredity: the passing of physical characteristics from parent to offspring. Trait: each form of a characteristic Gene: a segment of DNA on a chromosome that determines/controls a physical trait Allele: different forms of a gene. Get one from each parent and represented by letters Dominant/recessive: the allele that always shows up in an organism when present. (If no dominant allele is present, recessive is present.) Homozygous: purebred for a trait (both alleles are dominant, BB, or both recessive, bb.) Heterozygous: hybrid for a trait. (Alleles are different, Bb) Genetics: the study of genes. Gregor Mendel: a priest who tended a garden. He asked why pea plants had different characteristics. Genotype: the genetic makeup (Pp) Phenotype: organism’s physical appearance Probability: how likely it is for an organism to inherit a trait Punnett Squares: a chart that shows all possible genetic combinations of alleles Codominance: an inheritance pattern where both phenotypes are expressed Incomplete Dominance: an inheritance pattern where an intermediate for of the phenotype is expressed. Content: I. Gregor Mendel Priest who used cross pollination of 2 pea plants to see why characteristic get passed down II. Traits Characteristic= seed color Trait = yellow, green III. Rules for Alleles 1. As long as one capital letter is present, the physical trait is a dominant form 2. The same letter must be used for the same allele. It is chosen based on the dominant form IIV. Rules For Incomplete Dominance 1. Always choose the first letter of trait 2. Both letters are always capitalized 3. With heterozygous genotype, the letters should be in alphabetical order * When there are 2 dominant forms, you can have 2 different alleles* ex. B- black W-white Concepts/Skills: IV. Rules For Punnett Squares Write the characteristic to be measured (ex. Flower color) Write down the phenotypes and alleles that represent them (purple-P, white-p) Write out the cross of the 2 parents. *Always write the parent mentioned first, first* (Pp X Pp) Assign alleles starting on the bottom left side and continuing across the top, in order of your cross Diagrams: Sample questions: 1.
