Biology - Cellular Transport and Cell Cycle (Chapter 8)

Chapter 8 notes and review from Glencoe.

AB
Diffusion goes from a _______ concentration to a _______ concentration.High, Low
Osmosis is................Diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane.
When is it called an isotonic solution?When the outside and the inside of the cell are the same.
When is it called a hypotonic solution?When the outside of the cell is lower concentration than the inside.
When is it called a hypertonic solution?When the outside of the cell is higher concentration than the inside.
What is passive transport?When the cel uses no energy to move materials across the plasma membrane.
Facillitated diffusion is when.........A carrier protien allows diffusion.
What is active transport?When a cell uses energy to move materials across the plasma membrane.
Endocytosis is when.......A cell surrounds material with its membrane and takes it in from the outside enviorment to form a vacoule.
Exocytosis is when........A cell releases a materialfrom the vacoule into the enviorment.
What is chromatin?Long strands of DNA.
What are chromosomes?When the chromatin is coiled up before cell division.
The cell cycle is.........The sequence of growth and division.
What is interphase?Longest period when the cell grows and performs its functions. The Chromatin replicates.
What is mitosis?Period of nuclear division which leads to 2 daughter with identical coppies of DNA.
What is chromosomes?Chromatin coiled up.
The Centromere is...The point that holds the two sister chromatids together.
What is the first stage of mitosis?Prophase.
The Centrioles...Seperate and move from the nucleus to opposite poles and form spindle fibers.
What is the second stage of mitosis?Metaphase
What happens in Metaphase?Sister chromatids attach to the spindle fibers at their centromere and move to the equator and line up.
What is the third stage of mitosis?Anaphase.
What happens in Anaphase?The sister chromatids seperate and are pulled to opposite poles.
What is the final stage of mitosis?Telophase.
What happens in Telophase?New chromosomes at each pole are surrounded by a nuclear membrane. Cytokinesis happens and a plasma membrane forms along the equator.
What is cytokinesis?When the Cytoplasm divides.
What is the result of mitosis?Two new cells with chromosomes Identical to the parent cell.
