AB
animal celldoes not contain a cell wall
cellsall living things are made of these
van leeuwenhoekfirst described living cells
eukaryotecell containing a nucleus
selective permeabilitycontrols what in the cells environment could enter the cell
mitochondriamuscle cells have more of these because they need more energy
plasma membranestructure most responsible for maintaining cell homeostasis
schleidenconcluded that all plants are made up of cells
bacterial cellscell that has no nucleus
nucleuscontrol center of the cell
golgi bodysorts, packages and transport
hypotonicwater moves into a cell placed in this solution
osmosiswhen a cell is placed in salt water, water leaves the cell by this process
endocytosisthis is not a form of passive transport
phospholipid bilayera plasma membrane is made up of this
lysosomescell structure that contains digestive enzymes
ribosomessite of protein synthesis
organellessmall, membrane-bound structures inside a cell
prokaryoteorganism with a cell that lacks a true nucleus
mitochondriabreakdown of molecules in order to produce energy
ciliashort hairlike projections used for locomotion
chloroplastsin plants, the structure that transform light energy into chemial energy
cytoskeletonnetwork of tiny rods and filaments that forms a framework for the cell
vacuolestorage space for food, water, or waste
endoplasmic reticulumsystem of connected membranes that is site of chemical reactions
nucleuscontains all of the DNA that is responsible for appearance
cell wallrigid support structure outside the plasma membrane in plant cells
osmosisdiffusion of water
endocytosiscell engulfs material and releases the content INTO the cell
isotonicconcentration in the solution is EQUAL to solution in the cell
selectively permeablemaintains homeostasis by allowing some molecules in while keeping others out
exocytosisactive transport where materials are secreted or expelled out of the cell
hypotonicsolution outside the cell is less concentrated than inside the cell
passive transportmovement across a cell membrane with no energy
hypertonicsolution outside the cell is greater than inside the cell
active transportcells transport materials against a concentration gradient
