BIOL 108 WORKSHEET 2
1.
How does a cell illustrate the basic concepts of life? Be specific
and use at least 3 characteristics of life.
According to
Dummies (n.d) “Cells make up the smallest level of a
living organism such as yourself and other living
things. The cellular level of an organism is where the
metabolic processes occur that keep the organism
alive. That is why the cell is called the fundamental
unit of life.
Cells
are sacs of fluid surrounded by
cell
membranes
. Inside the fluid float chemicals and
organelles
. An organism contains parts that are
smaller than a cell, but the cell is the smallest part of
the organism that retains characteristics of the entire
organism. For example, a cell can take in fuel, convert
it to energy, and eliminate wastes, just like the
organism as a whole can” (para 1-2).
2.
How does rough endoplasmic reticulum differ from smooth
endoplasmic reticulum?
“The main difference between
these two terminologies is that the Smooth
Endoplasmic Reticulum is known for stocking the
lipids and proteins. It is not bounded by ribosomes.
Whereas, the Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum is
bounded by the ribosomes and also stores proteins”
(toppr, N.d para 1).
3.
If a cell’s lysosomes do not function properly, what would be
the outcome?
According to Children National “When
lysosomes don’t work properly, these sugars and fats
build up in the cell instead of being used or excreted”
which leads to lysosomal storage disorder (N.A para
1).
4.
What is the main difference between prokaryotic and
eukaryotic cells?
“The primary distinction between
these two types of organisms is that eukaryotic cells
have a membrane-bound nucleus and prokaryotic
cells do not. The nucleus is where eukaryotes store
their genetic information. In prokaryotes, DNA is
bundled together in the nucleoid region, but it is not
stored within a membrane-bound nucleus” (Cell
Science from Technology Networks, N.D para 16)
5.
Identify three components of the cytoskeleton.
“The
cytoskeleton of a cell is made up of microtubules,
actin filaments, and intermediate filaments. These
structures give the cell its shape and help organize
the cell's parts” ( Natural Publishing Group, N.D para
11)
6.
Explain the fluid-mosaic model of the plasma membrane.
According to Khan Academy (n.d) “The fluid mosaic
model describes the cell membrane as a tapestry of
several types of molecules (phospholipids,
cholesterols, and proteins) that are constantly
moving. This movement helps the cell membrane
maintain its role as a barrier between the inside and
outside of the cell environments” (para 1).
7.
In what specific way is osmosis different than diffusion?
“Diffusion can occur in any mixture, including one
that includes a semipermeable membrane, while
osmosis always occurs across a semipermeable
membrane. One big difference between osmosis and
diffusion is that both solvent and solute particles are
free to move in diffusion, but when we talk about
osmosis, only the solvent molecules (water
molecules) cross the membrane” (www.npsk12.com,
n.d. Para 7-8).
8.
What happens to red blood cells when they are placed in a
hypertonic solution?
“If you place an animal or a plant
cell in a hypertonic solution, the cell shrinks, because
it loses water (water moves from a higher
concentration inside the cell to a lower concentration
outside). So, if you get thirsty at the beach drinking
seawater makes you even more dehydrated” (Byres,
N.D para 9).
9.
How does active transport differ from facilitated transport?
According to Mader (2019) “during facilitated
transport, a molecule is transported across the
plasma membrane from the side of higher
concentration to the side of lower concentration.
Whereas, during active transport, a molecule is
moving from an area of lower concentration to one of
higher concentration” (p.g 51-52).
10.
Identify and describe 4 ways that substances leave or enter
cells. (
2 pts
)
When I look online I found on Quizlet
(n.d) the ways substance leaves and enters the body.
They had six cards which were labeled passive
transport, endocytosis, exocytosis, active transport,
diffusion, and osmosis. According to Mader (2018)
active transport is “Movement of a molecule across a
plasma membrane from an area of lower
concentration to one of higher concentration; uses a
carrier protein and energy” (Mader, 2018, pg. G-1).
Discussion is “Movement of molecules or ions from a
region of higher to lower concentration; it requires no
energy and stops when the distribution is equal”
(Mader, 2018, pg. G-5). Quizlet (n.d) states
endocytosis “transports large particles; brings into
cell; transports energy. Exocytosis transports large
particles; brings out of cell; transports energy” (card
5 and 6). Osmosis is the “Diffusion of water from an
area of high concentration to low concentration
through a selectively permeable membrane” (Mader,
2018, pg. G-11).
Passive transport “moves particles
through proteins; doesn't require energy; moves from
high to low” (Quizlet, N.D, card 4).
11.
For each process, indicate where it occurs in the cell and
whether oxygen is required: glycolysis, citric acid cycle, and
electron transport (
2 pts
)
12.
What is the function of the Golgi apparatus?
According to
Davis “the Golgi apparatus transports and modifies
proteins in eukaryotic cells” (2021 para 1).
13.
Identify the 4 main tissue types in the body.
Midline Plus
(n.d) states “There are 4 basic types of tissue:
connective tissue, epithelial tissue, muscle tissue,
and nervous tissue. Connective tissue supports other
tissues and binds them together (bone, blood, and
lymph tissues). Epithelial tissue provides a covering
(skin, the linings of the various passages inside the

Unit 3 - Activity 7 - Evaluating Advances in Cellular Biology Assignment
Advances in cellular biology have had a major impact on human health worldwide. As one example, when
the first cases of acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) appeared in the late 1970s, they frustrated
medical researchers who were trying to find the cause of this wasting disease that could quickly
compromise entire body systems. Researchers suspected the cause to be a retrovirus, a type of virus that
can transform its RNA into DNA, which is subsequently incorporated into the host type of virus that can
transform its RNA into DNA, which is subsequently incorporated into the host cell's genome. If host cells
include the crucial T-lymphocytes that are part of the immune system, then a person infected with the
virus can be left defenseless against infections.<

In 1983, a team of researchers at the celebrated Pasteur Institute in Paris finally identified this retrovirus
as the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).…

The Importance of the Cell in Human Health The cell is the basic unit of life. It is a highly organized structure composed of organelles, cytoplasm, and cytoskeletal structures and surrounded by a plasma membrane. Each of these structures has a specific function necessary for the proper development and function of tissues, organs, and organ systems. Dysfunction of cellular components may not only affect the individual cell but may affect the entire organism, resulting in a clinical disorder.

Molecular Transport Across Membranes Workshop
How does the cell membrane control movement of materials?
The cellular membrane is critical to the maintenance of homeostasis in living
organisms. The cell membrane separates the cell from the external environment and
plays a critical role in regulating movement of material in and out of the cell.
Additionally, eukaryotic cells are made complex by the presence of internal
membranes that form organelles, so the cells may become specialized. These organelle
membranes create compartments within the cell that can do specific functions.
For this exercise, you will work in groups of four to progress through the activities.
At the end of each activity, one group (chosen at random) will share how they
responded and open the floor for further discussion.
