cells, organelles, dna

QuestionAnswer
what are the three cell theories? BAP cells are the basic organizational units of life all organisms are made up of one or more cells all cells are made from pre existing cells
what is the structural units and functional units of life? structural units form the structure of the organizm ( cell membrane, cell wall ) funtional units carry out tasks such as nutrition, excretion, respiration.
what is the cytoplasm and cytosol? gel like substance that holds the organelles. the cytosol the the gel by itself.
nucleus the nucleus protects the DNA and controls all cell activities
nucleolus makes ribosomes
cell membrane controls what gets in and out of the cell ( made up of phospholipid bilayer )
endoplasmic reticulum transport proteins from nucleus
mitochondrion ( dria ) the powerhouse of the cell, provides energy (ATP ) to the cell through cellular respiration
golgi body sorts and packages proteins and other materials for transport out cell
ribosomes makes protein
vacuole stores water and nutrients
lysosome cleans up cell
chromatin uncondenced chromosome that contains the instruction for the characteristics the cell will have. ( turns into chromosomes before cell reproduction )
vesicle stores materials and transports them throughout and out the cell
cell wall provides structural support to the cell
chloroplast stores energy from the sun to make glucose ( photosynthesis )
phospholipid bi layer makes up the cell membrane hydrophilic head, hydrophobic tail allows cell to be selectively permeable
what do plant cells have that animal cells don't? larger vacuoles - because they can't move around to go find water cell wall - so they can grow up taller to the suns light chloroplast - stores sunlight to make food from the plant with carbon dioxide
what are the 4 nitrogen base pairs of a DNA Adenine - Thymine Guanine - Cytosine
why do the nitrogen base pairs pair the way they do? due to hydrogen bonds, specifically A & T ( 2) , C & G ( 3 ) can only pair with each other, this way you can always tell the other half of the code is with just the first half
how does the DNA act as a code the DNA acts as a code because the nitrogen base pairs are always the same and never changing so they can act as a computer code and be placed in sequences like codes.
nucleotide a nucleotide is a singular nitrogen base, sugar ( deoxyribose ), and phosphate
transgenic organisms ( human made ) an organism that has had its genetic code altered with gens from another organism
mutations ( natural ) a change in the DNA of an organism
mutagens substance/factor that can cause DNA mutation ( x rays, uv rays )
types of genetic screening methods for genetic disorder PKU - test for excessive or too little protein Karyotype - micrograph of chromosome to look for things like down syndrome
what are proteins? proteins are important molecules made by a small part of the gene that carry out different jobs in the body i.e. transfer signals between body parts, and speed up bodily chemical reactions ( catalyst )
relationship between DNA, genes, and proteins DNA makes genes genes make proteins the job of the protein is decided by the DNA
what is a karyotype? and use an individuals complete set of chromosomes. can be used to look for abnormalities or disorders like down syndrome, Huntington disease
DNA deoxyribonucleic acid deoxyribose - sugar nucleic - in the nucleus acid - the chemicals
centrioles responsible for cell reproduction
