The one thing that all cells have in common is - membrane The membrane is composed of - phospholipids Transport holes - Proteins that help certain molecules and ions move in and out of the cell The cell is filled with the fluid called - cytoplasm/cytosol Plant and animal cells are____cells - Eukaryotic The nucleus is surrounded by __________ in both types of animal and plant cells - Rough and smooth er Smooth ER processes - Lipids or fats for cell use The cell wall of a plant cell has a cell junction sides called - Plasmodesmata Animal cells are________ than plant cells - Smaller Photosynthesis - Occurs in chloroplast, to convert carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight directly from the atmosphere into usable energy in the form of glucose Photosynthesis formula - 6CO2 + 6H2O + sunlight --- C6 H12 O6 + 6O2 Between the two processes of glycolysis and Krebs cycle _____ is produced in total - 6CO2 , 10 NADH, 2 FADH2 During cellular respiration as a whole glucose is oxidized to produce - 6CO2+ 6H20+ 38ATP Gregor Mendel - The father of genetics - Experimented with pea plants Mitosis - part of eukaryotic cell division during which the cell nucleus divides Mitosis vs. Meiosis - Mitosis: one division forming 2 identical cells (clones); Meiosis: two divisions forming 4 genetically different cells Meiosis - Cell division that produces reproductive cells in sexually reproducing organisms Mitosis - Where a diploid cell, or two copies of each chromosome, divides to form two identical diploid daughter cells diploid cell - A cell containing two sets of chromosomes (2n), one set inherited from each parent. Meiosis - A process by which diploid cells undergo meiosis into stages, meiosis one and meiosis two, resulting in four haploid gametes. Plants have two generations - Sporophytes and gametophytes sporophytes produce - Spores asexually (meiosis) asexual reproduction - Process by which a single parent reproduces by itself gametophyte produce - gametes by mitosis (produce sex cells, reproduce sexually) An organelle is - a small structure within a cell ________ are primarily found in animal cells - Centrioles from meiosis and mitosis All cells contain - DNA and RNA and can synthesize proteins. Cells are grouped together in: - tissues Tissues are grouped together in - organs Organs are grouped together in:
