REVIEW GUIDE FOR CELL TEST - B Day – Tuesday12/19; A Day - Tu, 12/20

  1. Discuss the three parts of the 19th century cell theory and contributions Schwann, Schleiden, and Virchow? (see notes, PPT or p. 170 in textbook)
  1. What were the discoveries of Robert Hooke and Antoine von Leeuwenhoek? ((see notes, PPT or 169-170 in textbook)
  1. Why do cells tend to be small in size? (see cell size lab and cell transport PPT)
  1. What is the difference between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells? Provide examples of each. (p. 172 textbook or see PPT)
  1. What is the difference between osmosis and diffusion? Regarding osmosis, discuss hypertonic, hypotonic, and isotonic solutions and draw pictures of what plant and animal cells look like in each of these different solutions. (PPT and/or p. 185-187)
  1. What is plasmolysis and what type of cells undergo this process? What is turgor pressure and what type of cells undergo this process? For animal cells, discuss cytolysis and crenation. (p. 187 & class notes).

7.What is the major component found in the cell wall of a plant cell?

What types of molecules/organelles leave the nucleus by means of nuclear pores.? (see Crossing Membrane Notes and p.173 & p. 176)

8.Describe the differences that exist between active transport and facilitated diffusion? (crossing the membrane notes and p. 188- 189)

9.Distinguish between endo- and exocytosis by providing labelled diagrams. Discuss the two types of endocytosis. (crossing membrane notes and/or p. 189 in textbook).

10.List the four structures that are found in all cells. (see PPT and p. 171 in textbook).

11.If a protein is being manufactured by a cell for export, what is the order of organelles involved in the process? (177-178).

  1. List major differences between plant and animal cells. ( PPT and

p. 183)

  1. Describe in complete detail the cell membrane. Include in your answer the two functions of the cell membrane, description of the chemical composition of the membrane (nonpolar and polar components), and a labelled diagram of the fluid mosaic model (cell membrane). (See cellular transport PPPT and p. 184)
  1. Know the function and be able to label all organelles in plant and animal cells. (Organelle PPT & section 7-2 in textbook).
  1. Be able to calculate total magnification of light microscope. Know difference between scanning and transmission electron microscope.
  1. Be able to explain the concept of Endosymbiosis (How did eukaryotic cells originate?). What evidence did Dr. Lynn Margulis have for her compelling theory? (See PPT & read p. 427 in textbook).
  • Read p. 182 in textbook, “The Cell as a Factory” - there will be a similar comparison to this on the test.
