(25 cards)

cell reproduction

Front

cells that are exact copies of the cells they replace

Back

cell membrane

Front

A cell structure that controls which substances can enter or leave the cell.

Back

Cilia

Front

Hairlike projections that extend from the plasma membrane and are used for locomotion

Back

cell stimulation

Front

increased size, secretion, mechanical function

Back

Cystosol

Front

liquid part of cytoplasm

Back

Catabolism

Front

Metabolic pathways that break down molecules, releasing energy.

Back

Smooth ER

Front

That portion of the endoplasmic reticulum that is free of ribosomes and transport fats

Back

metabolism

Front

the combination of chemical reactions through which an organism builds up or breaks down materials

Back

nucleus

Front

A part of the cell containing DNA and RNA and responsible for growth and reproduction

Back

Homeostasis

Front

process by which organisms maintain a relatively stable internal environment

Back

Ribosomes

Front

site of protein synthesis contains RNA

Back

passive transport

Front

Requires NO energy, Movement of molecules from high to low concentration, Moves with the concentration gradient

Back

cell growth

Front

process by which a cell increases its size

Back

Golgi apparatus

Front

A system of membranes that modifies and packages proteins for export by the cell

Back

lysosomes

Front

Uses chemicals to break down food and worn out cell parts

Back

cell digestion

Front

lysosomes

Back

Flagella

Front

whip like tails found in one-celled organisms to aid in movement

Back

organelles

Front

Structures specialized to perform distinct processes within a cell.

Back

Cell excretion

Front

ridding the cell of waste

Back

anabolism

Front

Constructive metabolism; the process of building up larger molecules from smaller ones.

Back

active transport

Front

the movement of materials through a cell membrane using energy

Back

Mitochondria

Front

An organelle found in large numbers in most cells, in which the biochemical processes of respiration and energy production occur.

Back

Centricles

Front

Two structures in the cytoplasm located near the nuclear membrane that help in cellular reproduction

Back

Cytoskeleton

Front

A network of long protein strands in the cytosol that helps support the cell

Back

Rough ER

Front

That portion of the endoplasmic reticulum studded with ribosomes which transport proteins.
