  • Cell
    Basic unit of life
  • Cytoplasm
    Holds the organelles
  • Cell membrane
    Surrounds the cytoplasm
  • Nucleus
    The "brain" of the cell
  • Centriole
    Helps in the formation of spindle fibers
  • Centromere
    Responsible for movement of the replicated chromosome
  • Cytoskeleton
    Gives shape to the cell
  • Ribosome
    Produces or synthesizes protein
  • Nucleolus
    Produce and assemble ribosomes
  • Prokaryotes
    Unicellular organisms
  • Eukaryotes
    Multicellular organisms
  • Binary fission
    Type of asexual reproduction
  • Cellula
    Latin word
  • Gametes
    Cells that are used during sexual reproduction
  • Cell cycle

    Ordered cycle of cell growth
  • Chromosomes
    Thread-like materials that hold the organism's genetic material
  • Cytokinesis
    The process of cell division that leads to the eventual division of the cytoplasm, resulting in 2 new cells
  • Interphase
    The nondividing phase and serves as the "resting stage"
  • Gap 1
    Primary growth phase of the cell
  • Synthesis
    During this time, DNA replication occurs
  • DNA replication
    Process where the complete genetic information and chromosomes are duplicated
  • Gap 2
    In this period, the cell continues to carry out its usual functions
  • Gap 0
    Cell stops dividing and leaves the cycle as early as G1
  • Force
    Any push or pull
  • Types of Force
    • Applied Force
    • Gravitational Force
    • Normal Force
    • Elastic Force
    • Tension Force
    • Frictional Force
  • Applied Force
    Force that is applied on an object through direct pushing or pulling
  • Gravitational Force
    Force exerted by gravity; also known as weight; mass times gravity
  • Normal Force
    Force that is perpendicular to the surface of an object is in contact with; if there's no surface in contact, then there's no normal force
  • Elastic Force
    Force present in springs
  • Tension Force
    Force that is present in cables, strings, cords, and other similar materials
  • Frictional Force

    Force that impedes motion
  • Newton's First Law of Motion
    A body at rest will continue to be at rest, and a body in constant motion will continue to be in constant motion along a straight line unless acted on by a net external force
  • Inertia
    The tendency of a body to resist any change in its motion
  • Normal Force (F)

    A force that exists whenever an object is in contact with a surface. It is always perpendicular to the surface the object is in contact with
  • Gravitational Force

    The downward force acting on the object
  • Newton's Second Law of Motion
    Acceleration is directly proportional to the force and is inversely proportional to the mass
  • Newton's Third Law of Motion
    Every action there is an equal and opposite reaction
  • Displacement
    How far an object is from where it started
  • Work
    The product of the force and displacement in the direction of the force
  • Power
    The rate of doing work. It is how fast work is accomplished in a certain unit of time
