Term
~ Passive Transport
Definition

 

 when particles move across the membrane using no energy.

Term
~ Exocytosis
Definition
when waste material exits the cell.
Term
~ Isotonic Solution
Definition
when both inside & outside have the same amount of dissolved solution
Term
~ Hypotonic Solution
Definition
when water enters the cell causing it to burst.
Term
~ Spindle
Definition
thin fiber made of microtubes, that also seperate sister chromatids.
Term
~ Cell Cycle
Definition
the growth and division in a cell.
Term
~ Cytokinesis
Definition
when the cell's cytoplasm divides and becomes a new cell.
Term
~ Centromere
Definition
joins two sister chromatids of a chromosomes.
Term
~ Active transport
Definition
when cells transport material across the cell membrane.
Term
~ Endocytosis
Definition
when the cell takes in enviromental material.

stringy structures that contain DNA and become stained.
Term
~ Chromatin
Definition
DNA strands wrapped around histones
Term
~ Centrioles
Definition
small, dark, microtubes located outside the nucleus
Term
~ Gene

when cromatins become chromosomes.
Term
~ Cancer
Definition
uncontrolled diving of the cells.
Term
~ Sister Chromatins
Definition
the two halves that make up a chomosome.
Term
~ Telophase
Definition
when the chromosomes from the prophase seperate to become a new cell.
Term
~ Interphase
Definition
