Cell Cell Theory Unicellular Multi-cellular Tissue Organ Organ System Organelle Cell Wall Cytoskeleton Cell Membrane Nucleus The basic units of structure and function in living things. They form parts of organisms and carry out processes or functions. States that all living things are composed of cells, cells are the basic units of structure and function of living things. A single cell. Many cells- cells are often organized into tissues, organs, then organ systems. Group of similar cells that work together to perform a certain function. Group of organs that work together to perform a major function. Group of organs that work together to perform a major function. Carries out specific functions of the cell. Helps protect and support the cell. Animal cells do not have a cell while plant cells do. A protein “framework” inside a cell that gives the cell a shape. The outside boundary that separates the cell from its environment. It controls what substances go in and out of the cell. The cell’s control center. It directs all of the cells activities. Cytoplasm Mitochondria Endoplasmic Reticulum Ribosome Golgi Body Chloroplast Vacuole Lysome Element Compound It is large oval and purple. In the cytoplasm there are many organelles like mitochondria, the endoplasmic reticulum ribosomes, golgi bodies, and chloroplasts. The power houses of the cell. They convert food into energy. This carries materials throughout the cell. These float in the cytoplasm. They make proteins. They have grainlike bodies. These look like flattened sacs and tubes. They release materials out of the cell. They receive new materials from the Endoplasmic Reticulum. Captures energy from sunlight to produce food, makes leaves green, and these are only in plant cells. Large water filled sac floating in the cytoplasm. It is the storage area for cells. Small round structures that contain chemicals that break down large food particles into smaller ones. Any kind of substance that cannot be broken into simpler substances. When two or mare compounds combine chemically. An energy rich organic compound made of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Carbohydrate Protein Amino acid Enzyme Lipid Nucleic acid DNA RNA A large organic molecule mostly made of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and in some cases sulfur. Make up proteins. There are only 20 common amino acids. They can combine to form 1000s of different proteins. Perform important functions in chemical reactions that take place in cells. An energy rich organic compound made of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen Long organic molecules made of carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, and phosphorus. They contain the instruction cells need to perform the functions of life. One of the nucleic acids. The genetic material that carries information about an organism and is passed from parent to offspring. Ribonucleic acid. It is found in the cytoplasm and in the nucleus. It plays an important role in proteins. Means something can pass through something while others cannot. Selectively Permeable Diffusion Osmosis Passive Transport Active Transport Photosynthesis Autotroph Heterotroph Pigment The main method by which small molecules move across a cell membrane. The molecules move from high concentration to a low concentration. The diffusion of water molecules through a selectively permeable membrane. The movement of dissolved materials through a cell membrane without using cellular energy. Moves materials through a cell membrane using cellular energy. The process by which a cell captures energy in sunlight and uses it to make food. All living things do this directly or indirectly. An organism that makes its own food. An organism that cannot make its own food. Colored chemical compounds that absorb light. Chlorophyll Stomata Respiration Fermentation Cell Cycle Interphase Replication Mitosis Chromosome The main photosynthetic pigment in chloroplasts. The small opening on the underside of a leaf where carbon dioxide can enter through a plant. The process by which cells obtain energy from glucose. Provides energy for the cells without using oxygen The regular sequence of growth and division that cells undergo. The first stage of the cell cycle. It is before cell division. During this the cell grows, makes a copy of DNA, and prepares to divide into 2 cells. When the cell makes an exact copy of the DNA in its nucleus. When one copy of DNA is distributed into each of the two daughter cells. The thread like chromatin in the nucleus that condenses to form double red line structures. When the cytoplasm divides. When the organelles are distributed into each of the two new cells. Cytokenisis Differentiation The process by which cells change in structure and become capable of carrying out specialized functions. The cells that humans produce. They can differentiate through life. Stem Cell Heredity Trait Genetics Fertilization The passing of physical characteristics from parents to off spring. Each different form of a characteristic. The scientific study of heredity. The joining of a sperm and egg. Purebred Gene Alleles Dominant allele Recessive allele Hybrid Probability The offspring of many generations that have the same trait. The factors that control a trait. The different form of a gene. One whose trait is always visible in the organism when the allele is present. An allele that is masked when a dominant allele is present. An organism that has two different alleles for a trait. A number that describes how likely it is that a certain event will occur. A chart that shows all the possible combinations of alleles that can result in a genetic cross. Punnet square Phenotype Genotype Homozygous Heterozygous Codominance Sexual reproduction Diploid An organisms physical traits or it visible traits. An organisms genetic makeup or allele combinations. An organism that has two identical alleles for a trait. An organism that has two different alleles for a trait. A condition in which the neither of the two alleles of a gene is dominant or recessive. When genetic materials from two parents combines to form a new organism. A cell that contains two sets of chromosomes, one set from each parent. The process by which the number of chromosome is reduced by half to form sex cells- sperm and eggs. Meiosis Messenger RNA Transfer RNA Mutation Multiple alleles Sex chromosomes Sex-linked RNA that copies the coded message from DNA in the nucleus and carries the message into the cytoplasm. RNA in the cytoplasm that carries an amino acid to the ribosome and adds it to the growing protein chain. A change in gene or chromosome. Three or more form of a gene that code for a single trait. A pair of chromosome carrying genes that determine whether a person is a male of a female. A gene that is carried on the X or Y chromosome. gene Carrier Genetic disorder Pedigree Karyotype Selective breeding Inbreeding A person who has one recessive allele for a trait, but does not have the trait. An abnormal condition that a person inherits through genes or chromosomes. A chart or “family tree” that tracts which members of a family have a particular trait. A picture of all the chromosome in a cell arranged in pairs. The process of selecting a few organisms with desired trait to serve as parents of the next generation. A selective breeding method in which two individuals with identical sets of alleles are crossed. An selective breeding method in which two genetically different individuals are crossed. Hybridization Clone Genetic engineering Gene therapy Genome Endocrine System An organism that is genetically identical to the organism in which it was produced. The transfer of a gene from the DNA of one organism into another organism, in order to produce an organism with desired traits. The insertion of working copies of a gene into the cells of a person with a genetic disorder in attempt to correct the disorder. All of the DNA in one cell of an organism. Produces chemicals that control many of the bodies daily activities as well as growth/development Negative feedback, when a particular hormone gets to a specific level. The ES stops the release of that hormone. Reproductive === eggs === sperm system
