Everything About Cells

AB
CellBasic unit of structure and function of living things
CellBuilding block of Life
OrganelleSmall structures the make up cells
NucleusControl center of the cell
NucleolusOrganelle which makes ribosomes; located inside the nucleus
RibosomeProtein making organelle
Endoplasmic ReticulumTransporation organelle; location of some of the ribosomes in the cell
MitochondriaSite of respiration in the cell
MitochondriaEnergy making organelle
LysosomeCleans the cell aned removes waste materials
Golgi BodyPackaging center of the cell
ChloroplastOnly in plant and protist cells; makes glucose during photosynthesis
MitosisRegular cell division
MitosisEnds with two daughter cells
MeiosisSex cell division
MeiosisEnds with four daughter cells
Interphase90% of the cells time is during this phase
InterphaseThe chromosomes duplicate
ProphaseThe chromosomes coil and become shorter
ProphaseThe nuclear membrane disapears
ProphaseThe nucleolus disappears
MetaphaseThe chromosome line up at the middle of the cell and attach to the spindle fibers
AnaphaseThe chromosomes move up the spindle fibers and away from each other
TelophaseThe nuclear membrane reapears and the cell begins to pinch off. The chromosomes also uncoil.
SchleidenAll parts of plants are made of cells.
SchwannAll parts of animals are made of cells.
HookeNamed cells after looking at cork
Redi & VirchowDisproved Spontaneous Generation
MetabolismThe sum total of all the chemical processes in cells
OsmosisMovement of water into and out of cells, special type of diffusion, moves materials from high concentration to low concentration without the use of energy
DiffusionMovement of any material from high concentration to low concentration with the use of energy
Active TransportA way of moving thing into and out of the cell which uses energy, materials can move with or against the concentration gradient
Concentration GradientThe idea that materials want to move from high concentration to low concentration
RespirationProcess of making energy by breaking down sugars in the mitochondria
ATPEnergy molecule produced during respiration
