- definitions of vocabulary words:
| word | definition |
|---|---|
| endocytosis | |
| exocytosis | |
| multicellular organism | |
| whip - like structure beats back and forth to propel cell | |
| binary fission | new offspring are out growth of parents cell and are smaller than parent cell |
| ciliates join and exchange the genetic material from their nuclei increases genetic variation | |
| multiple fission/schizogony | does not result in new organisms |
| \hairlike\ structures wiggle to make movement | |
| extending false foot that pulls the rest of the cell along behind |
Endocytosis is the process by which a cell takes in substances by engulfing them with its cell - membrane. Exocytosis is the process by which a cell releases substances out of the cell by fusing a vesicle with the cell - membrane. A multicellular organism is an organism composed of many cells. The description about the whip - like structure is for a flagellum. The description for binary fission is incorrect; binary fission is a form of asexual reproduction where a single cell divides into two equal daughter cells. The description about ciliates joining and exchanging genetic material is for conjugation. Multiple fission (schizogony) is a form of asexual reproduction where a single cell divides into multiple daughter cells. The "hair - like" structures for movement are cilia. The extending false foot is a pseudopod.
