| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Cellular Construction | ALL cells are comprised of cells |
| Metabolism | Chemical reactions to supply energy |
| Reproduction | ALL organisms reproduce |
| Evolution & Adaption | Has led to diversity of living organisms |
| PROKARYOTIC CELL | - First true cell - Most cells on Earth are still |
| Prokaryotic Cell Structure | - Cell Membrane - Genetic Information - Ability to synthesise proteins - Transcription & Translation - Cytoskeleton - Metabolism: break down molecules to release energy - Reproduction - division into 2 cells |
| Cytoskeleton | Structure that helps a cell maintain shape & internal organisation |
| Metabolism | Converting complex molecules to energy |
| Reproduction in cells | Mitosis & Meiosis |
| Synthesising Proteins | Transcription & Translation |
| Mitosis | 1. Interphase 2. Prophase 3. Metaphase 4. Anaphase 5. Telophase 6. Cytokinesis |
| Meiosis | 1. Interphase I 2. Prophase I 3. Metaphase I 4. Anaphase I 5. Telophase I 6. Cytokinesis I |
| Transcription | Involves production of messenger RNA complementary to a gene |
| Translation | Begins at AUG codon at 5' end of mRNA. |
