glycolysis

body process which involves the initial breakdown of glucose to pyruvic acid

Phagocytosis (this is why I fast)

cell engulfs particles in cell "eating"

some organisms consist of

just one cell

cell wall

plant cell

centrioles

spindle production for cell division

the function of a neuron

to transmit nerve impulses within the nervous system

hypertonic (ask me about this and zucchini)

a solution with a salt concentration higher than the salt concentration within the cell

muscle fiber

a very, long contracting cell

ATP is a compound produced by the body to

be used as a source of energy when needed for a reaction

hemoglobin allows

erothrocyte to carry oxygen to the other cells of the body

cellular respiration

passive diffusion

ingestion

phagocytosis

ribosome

production of protein

tissue organization

represented by bone in our body

nucleolus

ribosome production

organisms referred to as "colonial"

similar bacteria or protozoa which group together

specialization

the limiting of the function of a cell to a specific function

animal cells contain

- Nucleus - cytoplasm - cell membrane - mitochondria - ribosomes

animal cells do not contain

- Plasmodesmata - Chloroplasts - very large vacuole - Cell Wall

creationist and evolutionist are in agreement on:

- cell complexity - the role of certain organelles in cell chemistry - the levels of organization of complex organisms

cells that are specialized

- white blood cells - muscle cells - bone cells

cytoplasm

all cellular material outside the nucleus

cells that are not specialized

amoeba

tissue

cells working together to perform a particular task

colonial protozoans

example of cellular level of organization

digestion

food vacuoles and lysosome

an erothrocyte contains a red pigment called

hemoglobin

facilitated diffusion

molecules helped by protein, move from high to low concentration

cellular level

organisms at this level are either unicellular or colonial

Golgi bodies

produce and package secretions

creationist and evolutionist are not in agreement about:

the ability of matter to be self organizing

diaphragm

the part of the microscope that adjusts the amount of light reaching the specimen

endoplasmic reticulum

transportation routes in cell

passive diffusion

transports oxygen, carbon dioxide

pinocytosis

transports proteins, nucleic acids

active transport

transports sodium, potassium

division of labor

work being divided up into specialized tass

an "organism" is considered the highest level of organization of cells

yet it is also found at the lowest level of cellular organization
