IB BIOLOGY REVIEW

Unit Cell Review

QuestionAnswer
nucleus -holds genetic material (chromatin, chromosomes) -mRNA formed here -phospholipid envelope with pores
Nucleolus -rRNA -ribosome sythesis
Ribosomes -protein synthesis
SMOOTH Endoplasmic Reticulum (E.R.) -no ribosomes -transport
ROUGH Endoplasmic Reticulum (E.R.) -with ribosomes -transport and pack proteins created from attached ribosomes
Golgi Apparatus -PACKING FOR EXPORT -E.R. products (proteins and lipids) are modified, stored, and repacked into vesicles
Endomembrane System - E.R. (smooth and rough) -gogli apparatus -lysosomes -vacuoles
Lysosomes -"LYS SLICE" -sack of hydrolytic enzymes(digestive) -phagocytosis(ingests and destroys foreign material)
Vacuoles -STORAGE -membrane-bound sacs -in protists:contractile (pump excess water) -in animal cells: small and many of them (for water, waste, and soluable pigments)
Mitochondrion -cellular respiration (ENERGY) -made of phospholipid - cristae(foldings)/matrix (liquid) -*CONTAINS OWN DNA*
Chloroplast -Photosyntesis (PLANT ENERGY) -Grana: green -Stroma:clear area
Cell Wall -protective layer external to the plasma membrane -plants: cellulose -fungus:chitin
Intercellular Junctions (PLANTS) -PLASMODESMA: small channels in cell wall that allows water and solute passages in plants
Intercellular Junctions (ANIMALS) -tight junctions:fusion of neighboring cells/prevents leakage -Desmosomes:Anchoring junction -Gap Function:communication-passage of materials
Centrosomes -region near nucleus that contains centrioles -ONLY IN ANIMAL CELLS
Centrioles -a structure composed of cyliners of microtubes involved in cell division -ONLY IN ANIMAL CELLS
Cilia/Flagella -MOTION -locomotive appendages made of microtubles
Peroxisomes -"PEROX DETOX" - transfers hydrogen from various substrates to oxygen production hydrogen proxide then degrades it to water
the Cytoskeleton -a fiborous network for support and cell mobility -made of:microtubles and microfiliments
Microtubles -thickest -tubulin protein -SHAPE, SUPPORT, TRANSPORT, CHROMOSOME MOVEMENT, CELL MOBILITY
Microfiliments -thinest -actin protein -CAUSE CELL CONTRACTION
Prokaryotic Cells -bacteria and achea -SIMPLE CELL ORGANISMS -unicellular - *NO MEMBRANE BOUND ORGANELLES*
Eukaryotic Cells -all other forms of life besides prokaryotic -COMPLEX -PART OF MULTICELLULAR ORGANISMS
Cell parts within Prokaryotic Cells -cell wall -plasma membrane -mesosome -cytoplasm -ribosomes -naked DNA -slime capsule(protein coat) -
Mesosome (P.C.) -site of respiration (ENERGY)
Cytoplasm -site of metabolic activities
Naked DNA (P.C.) -store of genetic material -no
Slime Capsule (P.C.) -protects cell against chemicals and drying out
Viruses -NONLIVING -cannot carry out life processes without a host cell -virus particles called VIRIONS
Surface Area to Volume Ratio -relative surface area decreases as the 'organism' gets bigger -as organism increases in size its surface area to volume ratio decreases
1 mm equals... 1,000 micrometre um)
molecules (relative size) 1 nm
membrane thickness (r.a.) 10 nm
Viruses (r.a.) 100 nm
Bacteria (r.a.) 1 um
Organelles (r.a.) up to 10 um
cells (r.a.) up to 100 um
magnification calculation -measure the scale part on the photopgrah with mm -converto to same unites as the scale bar -divide this number by the number on the scale bar
Light Microscope -advantages:resolving power - color images -examine living materials and movement
TEM -Transmission electron microscope -INTERNAL STRUCTURE (ultra structure)
SEM -scanning electron microscope -SURFACE FEATURES

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
