what strengthens the cell membrance?
Term
proteins
Definition
what helps transport material and send signals across the membrane?
Term
carbohydrates
Definition
what is used as an identification marker?
Term
selectively permeable
Definition
some materials can pass through while others cant
Term
cell membrane
Definition
controls the passage of materials into and out of cell.selectivly permeable. seperates cell from living enviorment. secrete molecules and contain carbonydrated in outside surface that can act as signals to comnunicate with other cells.
Term
receptor
Definition
protein that detects a signal molecule and preforms and action resonce. binds specifically only certain molecules. 2 types
Term
nutrition
Definition
INGESTION: taking in substance
DIGESTION:mechanical and chemical breakdown of food into smaller parts
EGESTION: elination of undigested food
Term
transport
Definition
life function
aborption and distribution off material within and organism
Term
respiration
Definition
life function
oxidation of food molecules to release energy to cell
Term
excretion
Definition
life function
removal of metabolic cellular waste production
Term
synthesis
Definition
life function
involves chemical activited by wwhich large molecules are buit from smaller ones (COMBINING)
Term
regulation
Definition
life function
control and coodination of carious activites of an organism
Term
growth
