Chapter 1 and AP Focus 3

QuestionAnswer
Fungi belong to this domain Eukarya
What are fungi Hterotrophic secreting digestive enzymes and then absorbing nutrients
Fungi grow in thin filaments called Hyphae (singular hypha)
Mycelium An aggregated mass of hyphae
All fungis cell walls contain A nitrogenous carbohydrate called chitin
If a filaments compartment contails multiple nuclei it is called ?, one nucleus it is ?, two nuclei it is called ? Coencytic, monokaryotic, dikaryotic
Saprobe fungi break down dead organic matter
Parasitic fungi may have specialized hyphae called haustoria that penetrate their host
Fungi spend most of their life as a ? but often go ? temporarily as a component of sexual reproduction Haploid, diploid
Steps of sexual reproduction in fungi #1 Plasmogomy #2 Karyogomy #3 Meiosis
Plasmogomy the fusing of hyphae from two different strains to form a dikaryotic hypha
Karyogomay the two nuclei fuse into one diploid nucleus
Meiosis the nucleus splits forming haploid daughter cells which form spores that can form new hyphae
Major fungi groups #1 Zygomycota #2 Ascomycota #3 Basidiomycota #4 Deuteromycota
Zygomycota reproduce sexually through zygospores
Example of zygomycota Bread mold
Ascomycota reproduce sexually through ascospores with eight haploid spores per sac called an ascus
Example of ascomycota Yeast, powdery milder, truffles
Basidiomycota (club fungi) reproduce sexually through basidia with four haploid spores per sac
Example of basidiomycota Mushrooms, breakcet fungi
Deuteromycota (imperfect fungi) haven't been observed reporducing sexually
Example of deuteromycota Penicillium
Lichens between a fungus and an algal protest or photosynthetic bacterium such as cyanobacteria
The autotroph provided ? and the fungus provides ? and ? from the enviroment Carbohydrates from photosynthesis, water and shelter
Lichens come in three basic formats called ?, ?, and ? Crustose, foliose, and fruticose
Lichens produce pigments to shield themselves from UV radiation or excess light
Lichens form toxins to prevent herbivores from grazing
Lichens are bioindicators of air pollution
Lichens spread through specialized structures called soredia
Mycorrhizae fungi living in the roots of plants
Mycorrhize enhance plants ability to obtain minerals such as nitrogen and phosphorous (helped plants move from aquatic habitiats to land)
Hierarchial classification of planetary life Ecosphere, Biosphere, Ecosystem, Communities, Populations, Organism
Ecophere all of earth's ecosystems
Biosphere all living things
Ecosystem biota and abiota in one set area
Communities all biota in a set area
Populations members of same species in a set area
Organism a single individual
Hierarchical classification of organisms Organ system, organ, tissue, cell, organelle, molecule
Organ system organ team (ex. circulatory system)
Organ collection of tissues with similar function
Tissue basic unit of all living things (may also be entire organism)
Organelle "little organ" functional system within a cell
Molecules covalently bonded atoms
Ecosystems nutrients recycle, energy transferred but lost as heat, producers and consumers
Cell theory (Schleiden, Schwann, Virchow)all organisms have at least one cell, basic unit of structure and fxn, cells come from other cells
DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) in chromosomes, coding regions of nucleotides comprise genes; genes call for specific AA to for proteins; double helix; adeinine, thymine, guanine, cytosine; universal code (insulin), genome
Genome all genes of an organism
Prokaryotic "before nucleus" lack nucleus and membrane bound organelles (ex. bacteria, do have ribosomes)
Eukaryotic "true nucleus" has nuclear enelope and membrane bound organelles
Emergent properties reverse dissection (ex. chlorophyll, bicycle)
Reductionism breaking down a system into its component parts; can be helpful (DNA), may not help (separated neurons make it harder to understand thought process)
Latest effort of reductionism 2001 human genome completed with 3 billion bases (30000 genes) on 50th anniversary of Watson and Crick DNA model
Systems biology looking at how a change impacts the entire system, not just one aspect (ex. how will a drug impact other systems in the body) must know parts, how they interact, and pool data + model system
Key components to systems biology high-throughput technology, bioinformatics, interdisciplinary research teams
High-thoughput technology technology that can produce large volumes of data
Bioinformatics field that pulls useful data from the output of high-throughput technology (uses mathematical models, computers, etc.) filter*
Interdisciplinary research teams using multiple fields for set up and processing (ex. engineers, medical scientists, physicists, mathematicians, computer specialists)
Negative feedback excess of a product inhibits an enzyme earlier in the process (ex. keys, say good for now), is reversible
Positive feedback production of product promotes an enzyme earlier in the process (ex. blood clot, more platelets come to area, keys allow both hands to be used, child birth/more contractions)
Domains Bacteria, Archaea, Eukarya
Bacteria common bacteria (w/ peptidoglycan layer)
Archaea extreme enviroment bacteria (lack peptidoglycan)
Eukarya eukaryotes mainly distinguished by nutrition; plants, animals, fung/consumers that absorb; protists (both unicellular and multi varieties making up multiple kingdoms)
Varying enviroments leads to adaptation
Discovery science uses both qualitative and quantitative and inductive reasoning
Inductive reasoning making a generalization based on specific observations #1 give a foundation if based on multiple observations #2 subject to inductive leap (all mammals have live birth)
Scientific method hypothesis and prediction
Hypothesis educated guess that is testable and falsifiable
Prediction always use "If..then" statement of what you might expect if hypothesis is correct
Broad and well supported hypothesis may become a ? theory, can have different means and may be modified or discarded
Scientific discovery can lead to ? technology, application of scientific investigations; can further scientific investigations; ethical concerns
Darwin's Natural Selection "Descent with modification" 1. Natural variation within a population, 2. limited resources lead to competition, 3. survivors pass on beneficial traits, 4. poor traits weeded out, beneficial traits increase in frequency, over time separated groups may no longer be able to interbreed
