  • The movement of water across a membrane.
    osmosis
  • A cell with a membrane-bound nucleus and other distinct, membrane-bound organelles is a
    Eukaryotic cell
  • True or false: Prokaryotic cells lack a nucleus.
    true
  • Collapse of a walled cell's cytoplasm due to a lack of water
    plasmolysis
  • The ability to distribute or circulate molecules from one part of a cell to another.
    transport
  • True or False: The rough endoplasmic reticulum (Rough ER) is dotted with cells.
    False. Rough ER is dotted with ribosomes.
  • True or False: Passive transport requires that the cell expend energy.
    False.
  • This is the cite of photosynthesis.
    chloroplast
  • True or False: Secretion is the removal of waste.
    False. Secretion is the ability to release biosynthesized (useful) substances.
  • The movement of particles from areas of greater concentration to areas of lesser concentration.
    diffusion
  • This scientist is known as the "Father of Microbiology."

  • True or False: Lysosomes are only found in animal cells.
    True.
  • A solution that has the same solute concentration (and water concentration) relative to another solution
    isotonic solution
  • What are the three parts of the cell theory?
    1) All living things are composed of one or more cells. 2) The cell is the basic unit of life. 3) Cells arise from existing cells.
  • The jelly-like fluid inside the cell in which the organelles are suspended.
    cytoplasm
  • The monomers of lipids are
    glycerol and fatty acids
  • What is another name for the plasma or cell membrane?
    the phosopholipid bilayer
  • The study of cells is called
    cytology
  • Digestive organelle that may also break up dead cell material
    lysosome
  • The ability to maintain internal stability.
    homeostasis
  • The ability to take in nutrients; includes absorption
    ingestion
  • Observed slices of cork and named "cells"
    Hooke
  • What chemical process occurs in the cell organelle called the mitochondria?
    respiration
  • These are the four structures ALL cells have in common:
    plasma membrane, ribosomes, DNA, and cytoplasm
