Cards

Term
Cell Wall
Definition
Surrounds cell and gives it a rigid, boxlike shape
Term
Nucleus
Definition
Directs cell's activities
Term
Lysosome
Definition
Breaks down food particles and worn-out cell parts (recycling center or clean up crew)
Term
Chromatin
Definition
coded information inside the nucleus
Term
Mitochondria
Definition
Convert energy in food to energy used by cell (power house)
Term
Golgi bodies
Definition
Packages and distributes materials from ER (mailroom)
Term
Ribosomes
Definition
Produce proteins needed by cell (protein factory)
Term
Cell membrane
Definition
Controls which substances move into and out of cell (gate keeper)
Term
Vacuole
Definition
Stores water, food, salt and waste products (storage tank)
Term
Cytoplasm
Definition
Fills most of cell; moves organelles within cell
Term
Chloroplast
Definition
Makes food for cell using energy from sunlight
Term
Endoplasmic reticulum
Definition
Transports things between cell and nuclear nembrane (highway)
Term
Summarize the differences between a plant cell and an animal cell.
Definition

The shape; the animal cell is round the plant cell is more box shaped.

The organelles are different, the cell wall is only found in a plant cell. Plant cell have bigger vacuoles. Animal cells have centrioles.

Term
Be able to draw and label a model of the plant cell and the animal cell with all of the organellels.
Definition
Term
List the level of organization in the body
Definition
cells, tissues, organs, organ systems, organism
Term
What cellular structures are found in plant cells but not in animal cells?
Definition
chloroplast and cell wall
Term
Based on what you know how would you explain why animals only need mitochondria but plants need both mitochondria and chloroplast.
Definition

Plants need chloroplast to make their food from sunlight, while animals go find their food and eat it.  Once the food is in the plant or the animal both need the mitochondria to convert that food into energy for the organism.

Term
Why do plant cells need larger vacuoles than animal cells?
Definition
Because the plant cells use the water in vacuoles along with the cell wall for structural support.
Term
Predict what would happen to an animal and to a plant if each of their cell's vacuoles lost 50% of their water.
Definition

Plant would become limp and then turn brown if water is not restored.  When water is restored to their cells they will straighten back up.

 

Animals will get thirsty and dehydrated.  They will then either go find water or they will continue with dehydration.  Dehydration then leads to possible heat stroke and could lead to death.

 

Both plant and animal cells functions would decrease as both need water. Normal activities done by the organelles would slow done, such as producing energy for the cell by the mitochrondia.

Term
Essay: Explain how a starfish eats
Definition
A starfish locates it's food, it may have to pry open a clam with its' arms. Then it gets on top of its prey and throws out it stomach on top of it, oozing digestive juices on it. The digestive juices causes it to be partial digested outside of the body, before it brings back in its stomach and its prey.
Term

What is the opening in the center of the starfish called?

What side of the starfish is it on?

[image]

Definition

mouth

ventral side

Term

What phylum is the starfish in?

What does the phylum name mean?

Definition

Echinodermata

spiny skin

Term

Explain why this starfish is unusual.

[image]

Definition
The starfish lost an arm and is regerenating another one.
Term

Essay:

Explain how a pearl is formed.

Definition
PEARL FORMATION - sand, grit or even a parasite can become lodged between the mantle and shell
mantle cells cover irritant
mantle forms smooth shell over object so the clam is protected
Term
