Cell Organelles and Transport

This activity will give you different vocabulary words so that you can learn the definition. It can also give you the definition and you give the word.

AB
Cell membranecontrols what enters and leaves the cell.
equilibriumhaving a stable internal enviornment in the cell.
phospholipidsa lipid bilayer of the cell membrane that is hydophilic and hydrophobic.
Hydrophilic"Water Loving"
Hydrophobic"Water Fearing"
Facilitated DiffusionA type of transport through the cell membrane where no energy (ATP) is required. It does use the help of proteins.
Carrier ProteinsMove materials through the cell membrane in facilitated diffusion
Active transportRequires ATP (energy) to move material across the cell membrane.
DiffusionThe movment of materials from a high concentration to a low concentration
OsmosisThis is the diffusion of water.
PhagocytosisThis is a form of endocytosis that is used to engulf large particles. Also called "cell eating".
ExocytosisThe movment of materials out of the cell
EndocytosisThe movement of materials into the cell.
IsotonicNo net movement between a cell and its enviornment.
HypertonicWhen a cell loses water to its surrounding enviornment.
HypotonicWhen a cell swells due to water entering it from the surrounding enviornment.
Semi-permeableWhat the cell membrane is which allows it to let things in and out
MitochondriaSite of cellular respiration.
Golgi Apparatus/BodyThis organelle wraps and exports proteins that it receives from the ER.
Cell WallThe non-living border that surrounds plant cells.
LysosomeA organelle that stores digestive enzymes
RibososmesThe site of protein synthesis.
Smooth ERWhere proteins are made that are used in the cell.
Rough ERMakes proteins to be exported from the cell.
NucleusControl center of the cell that contains chromosomes.
CytoplasmThe living material outside the nucleus that holds organelles.
CellThe unit of structure and function of all living things.
CentriolesStructures in animal cells involved in mitosis.
NucleolusDark round structure within the nucleus that produces ribosomes.
VacuoleStorage sac for water and other materials.
ChloroplastSite of photosynthesis.
Genetic Material (DNA)Contained in all cells
ProkaryoteLack a nucleus and organelles
EukaryoteHave a nucleus and organelles
HomeostasisBalanced internal conditions of cells.
4 cell membrane componentsPhospholipids, Cholesteral, Proteins, Carbohydrates
2 Types if Passive TransportSimple Diffusion and Facilitated Diffusion.
2 Main Types of Active TransportEndocytosis and Exocytosis
