Chloroplast

Cilia

Plasma Membrane

Golgi apparatus

Endoplasmic reticulum

Respiration

Photosynthesis

Glycolysis

Electron transport chain

Aerobic respiraiton

Anaerobic respiration

Lactic acid

Pyruvate

Phospholipid

Cholesterol

Channel protein

Pore protein

Fibrous protein

Glycoprotein

In addition to the terms above, be sure the review the cell membrane exercise, the photosynthesis exercise, and the connections between glycolysis, respiration, electron transport chain and photosynthesis. You do not need to know all the steps and enzymes involved but should have a general idea of the starting and end products of each cycle and whether the cycle generates or uses energy.

Cell Membrane.

Using the terms listed below, label the microscope diagram.

microscope to label


arm - this attaches the eyepiece and body tube to the base.
base - this supports the microscope.
body tube - the tube that supports the eyepiece.
coarse focus adjustment - a knob that makes large adjustments to the focus.
diaphragm - an adjustable opening under the stage, allowing different amounts of light onto the stage.
eyepiece - where you place your eye.
fine focus adjustment - a knob that makes small adjustments to the focus (it is often smaller than the coarse focus knob).
high-power objective - a large lens with high magnifying power.
inclination joint - an adjustable joint that lets the arm tilt at various angles.
low-power objective - a small lens with low magnifying power.
mirror (or light source) - this directs light upwards onto the slide.
revolving nosepiece - the rotating device that holds the objectives (lenses).
stage - the platform on which a slide is placed.
stage clips - metal clips that hold a slide securely onto the stage.
