QuestionAnswer
An organism with cells that have a nucleus Eukaryote
A single-celled organism with no nucleus Prokaryote
A microscopic, single-celled organism that lacks a nucleus and organelles; have different cell walls and cell membranes than bacteria or eukaryotes Archaea
Microscopic, single-celled organism that lacks a nucleus and organelles Bacteria
Eukaryotic organism, including molds, mushrooms, and yeasts; can be single-celled or multicellular Fungi
A particle that is the basic building block of matter Atoms
A particle made up of two or more smaller particles held together by chemical bonds Molecules
True or False: Bacteria are non-living. If you say true defend your answer. If you say false defend your answer False because bacteria have cells. Anything with a cell is living
The levels of complexity of the building blocks of life from least complex to most complex are: ATOMS (C, H, N, O, P) → MOLECULES (carbohydrates, lipid, protein) → CELL STRUCTURES ( nucleus, ribosomes, cell wall) → CELLS (any of them! As long as they contain the cell structure you built) ... This is a plant cell because it has a cell wall
The most basic building block of life is an ________ atom
Explain how bacteria reproduce. Bacteria reproduce asexually
Explain asexual reproduction. 1. Organism grows 2. Makes a copy of its own DNA 3. Splits in two
What role do plasmids play in bacteria's reproduction Plasmids are unique to bacterial cells and can be exchanged through a tube between two bacteria and each new cell gets new DNA. This allows the bacteria to acquire new traits.
List 2 ways bacteria can be beneficial. Potential ways bacteria can be BENEFICIAL - antibiotics, decomposers, digestion, food production
2 ways bacteria can be harmful. Potential ways bacteria can be HARMFUL - bacterial infection (ex E coli), epidemics (plague, typhus, lyme disease)
Explain what happens when bacteria is added to yogurt. When added to yogurt, bacteria break down the sugar in milk called lactose. They eat the lactose for food and give off lactic acid as a waste product
Explain how fungal cells reproduce. Fungal cells can produce both asexually and sexually. Spores are the reproductive cells of fungus. They travel by wind, water, animals, or air - this is how mushrooms and molds reproduce sexually. Yeast in bread reproduce asexually by budding.
Which cell is the archaean cell most like? Bacterial cell
Explain what happens when yeast is added to bread dough. Yeast consumes carbohydrates in the bread dough and eliminates carbon dioxide as waste. This gas causes bread dough to expand and the holes remain
List 2 ways fungi can be beneficial Ways fungi can be BENEFICIAL - penicillin (antibiotic made from fungi), molds that make cheese (brie, gorgonzola), yeast makes bread, mushrooms, decomposers
2 ways fungi can be harmful. Ways fungi can be HARMFUL - poisonous mushrooms (ex. Destroying angel), mildew spores = respiratory issues, asthma, irritations
How is the fungal cell unique? Fungal cells have an opening in their cell wall that allows fluids, proteins, and even nuclei to flow from one cell to the next. This means a single cell could have more than one nucleus at a time.
Even though the archaean cell is most like ________, how is it different? Even though the archaean cell has the same cell structures as a bacterial cell, the molecules that make up the cell wall, cell membrane, and ribosomes are different from those that make up those structures in the bacterial cell.
How were living things first classified? First, Aristotle classified living things as 2 kingdoms - plants and animals
What were the 5 kingdoms? The 5 kingdoms were plants, animals, protist, bacteria, and fungus.
The invention of the ______ helped expand the classification of plants and animals microscope
How are living things classified now? . Currently these 3 domains remain how we classify living organisms - bacteria, archaea, and eukaryotes (plants, animals, fungus, protist).
After everything we learned about bacterial, fungal, and archaean cells - what is the strongest evidence that explains which one we are most like? Humans are the most like fungal cells because we are made of animal cells, which have a nucleus and are considered eukaryotic. Of the three choices (bacterial cells, fungal cells, and archaean cells), only fungal cells contain a nucleus and are also consi
What is the difference between prokaryoric and eukarytotic cells Prokaryotic cells are unicellar and eukarytic cells are multicellular. Organisms that are prokaryotic reproduce asexually
Protist = Eukaryotic
Fungal Eukaryotic
Animal Cell Eukaryotic
Plant Cell Eukaryotic
Bacteria Prokaryoti
