Cell Micro Study Guide

C - Level

1.
2. Eukaryote - plant or animal cell; Prokaryote - bacteria
3. Diffusion is the movement of molecules from a high concentration to a low concentration until both are equal.

B - Level
1. Prokaryote - no nucleus, no organelles, smaller, circular DNA; Eukaryote - nucleus, contains organelles, big
2. Animal cell - contains lysosome, cell membrane only, small vacuole if any, mitochondria only - uses food for energy; Plant cell - contains large vacuole, contains chloroplast (uses sunlight for energy) and contains both cell wall and cell membrane
3. See notes on organelles.
4. Osmosis is the diffusion of water through a membrane
5. No energy - osmosis, diffusion, facilitated diffusion; Energy needed - endocytosis, exocytosis, active transport

A - Level
1. See above
2. See notes.
3. Review cell metaphor
4. See #2 in BLevel
5. Discuss osmosis, diffusion, endocytosis, exocytosis
6. proteins allow large molecules to pass through membranes or allow membranes to move against the gradient (low concentration to high)

Good to know
1. lipids and proteins
2. proteins
3. bacteria, plant
4. lysosome
5. cell wall, chloroplast
6. ribosome
7. shrink
8. plant and bacteria
9. lysosome
10. both are involved in generating energy for the organism. Chloroplasts generate energy from sun, water and carbon dioxide. Mitochondria generate energy from food.
