the correct amino acid

Anticodon will fit to the
codon

of?(p. 304-305)

12. What is a cell? (p. 16)
Smallest unit of LIFE
13. Define selectively permeable/semipermeable? (p. 182-185)
Allows certain things into and out of the
cell, but not others
14. What part of the cell is selectively semipermeable? (p. 182-185)
The cell membrane!
15. Define & describe the flow of: Active
transport-(p. 188-189)
• Moves substances in & out of the cell—
REQUIRES ENERGY!!!!!!
• Substances flow from low
concentration to high concentration.
16. Define & describe the flow
of:Endocytosis-(p.189)
•
Large particles moved INTO the cell
from low concentration to high
concentration-requires energy
17. Define & describe the flow of: Exocytosis
(p.189)•
Large particles are moved OUT of the cell
from low concentration to high
concentration-requires energy
Describe the 2 types of exocytosis.
• 18. Pinocytosis(p.189)- active
movement of liquid
• 19. Phagocytosis (p.189)-large particles
actively being moved
20. Define & describe the flow of:Passive
transport(p. 184-187 & notes) • Substances move in & out of the cellNO ENERGY REQUIRED!!!!
• Substances flow from high to low
concentration
21. Define & describe the flow of: Diffusion(p. 184)
• Small particles passively (no energy)
flow to an area of lower concentration
to reach approx. equilibrium
22. cont. Define & describe the flow
of:Osmosis-(p.185)
• When cells are put into solutions, water
may leave or enter the cell to create a
balance of solute to water balance.
23. Isotonic(p.186)• concentration of solutes is the same
inside to inside of the cell. Water flows
in and out of cell.
24. Hypertonic(p. 186)• solution has a higher solute
concentration then in the cell. Water
flows out of cell and into the solution.
25. Hypotonic(p. 186)• solution has a lower solute
concentration then inside the cell.
Water flows from solution and into the
cell-may lyse
26. Write the functions:Golgi apparatus (p.
178)=

reticulum (p. 177-178)=

reticulum (p. 177-178)=

• Captures sunlight & converts chemical
energy-PHOTOSYNTHESIS
30. Write the functions: Nucleus (p. 176)=
• The BRAIN-controls all functions of the
cell
31. Write the functions: Mitochondria
(p. 179)=

(ATP)-CELL RESPIRATION
32. What are the differences between a
plant and animal cell? (p. 175-183)
• Plant cells have a cell wall and
chloroplasts
• Animal cells have centrioles
• It is still controversial whether
Lysosomes are in animal cells or not
33. What are the characteristics of a
eukaryote cell? (p. 172-173)
