Question
Answer
show 1. All organisms are composed of cells. 2. Cells are the smallest living things. 3. Cells arise only from pre-existing cells.  
🗑
show -Most cells are relatively small for reasons related to the diffusion of substances into and out of cells. -As cell size increases, it takes longer for material to diffuse from the cell membrane to the interior of the cell.  
🗑
3) Desctibe Surface area-to-volume ratio in a cell:   show
🗑
4) Microscopes are required to visualize cells. Describe the two main microscopes.   show
🗑
show -All cells have a nucleoid or nucleus where genetic material is located -have cytoplasm a semifluid matrix -A plasma membrane -Ribosomes to synthesize protein.  
🗑
show -Cytoplasm fills the interior of the cell. It contains sugars, amino acids, and proteins to carry out daily cell activities.  
🗑
8)Describe the function of the Plasma Membrane in a Prokaryotic cell.   show
🗑
9) Which cell lacks a presence of a membrance-bounded nucleus?   show
🗑
10)In Prokaryotic cells, Where is genetic material presence in a cell?   show
🗑
10)What are the two main domains of Prokaryotes?   show
🗑
11)What do Prokaryotes LACK?   show
🗑
show -Its rigid cell wall which protect the cell and maintain cell shape  
🗑
show - peptidoglycan  
🗑
14)Bacterial can be classified into two types based on the differences in their cell walls, what are those two types?   show
🗑
show -peptidoglycan. Made of a Variety of carbohydrate and peptides.  
🗑
16)What is a common feature that helps distinguish archaea from bacteria?   show
🗑
show -By rotating flagella -Flagella are long, threadlike structures protruding from the surface of a cell.  
🗑
show -Eukaryotic cell  
🗑
show -Eukaryotic  
🗑
show -Achieved by an extensive ENDOMEMBRANE system that weaves through the cell interior and by numerious organelles.  
🗑
show -they possess a cytoskeleton for support and to maintain cellular structure.  
🗑
show -The nucleus  
🗑
23) Describe the function of the Nucleus.   show
🗑
show -Two phospholipid layers, which make up the Nuclear envelope.  
🗑
show ]-Prokaryotes- DNA is organized into single circular chromosome -Eukaryotes- DNA is divided into multiple linear chromosomes in chromosomes – DNA is organized with proteins to form chromatin  
🗑
show -chromatin  
🗑
show -In the ribosomes  
🗑
show -composed of ribosomal RNA and proteins  
🗑
show -Either free in the cytoplasm or associated with internal membranes.  
🗑
show -The Endomembrane system fills the cell, dividing it into compartment where different cellular functions occur 1. endoplasmic reticulum 2. Golgi apparatus 3. lysosomes -Channels the passage of molecules through the interior of the cell  
🗑
show -Pebbly surface due to the presence of ribosomes. -membranes that create a network of channels throughout the cytoplasm -synthesis of proteins are sent to lysosomes or plasma membrane  
🗑
31) Describe Smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) and its functions.   show
🗑
show -Functions in the collection, packaging, and distribution of molecules synthesized in one location. -Travel from RER into Golgi apparatues, then out of the Golgi apparatus in the plasma membrane.  
🗑
33)Lysosomes contain what? What is their function?   show
🗑
show -Tay Sachs disease  
🗑
35)Where are microbodies found?   show
🗑
show -membrane bound vesicles -contain enzymes -not part of the endomembrane system  
🗑
37) What are Glyoxysome? Where are they located and what do they do?   show
🗑
38) What are Peroxisomes? Where are they located and what do they do?   show
🗑
show -Vacuoles  
🗑
40) What are Vacuoles? What are they used for?   show
🗑
41) There are different types of vacuoles: What are they?   show
🗑
show -All types of Eukaryotic cells  
🗑
43) Describe the build of Mitochondria and its functions.   show
🗑
show -cristae. The cristae partition the mitochondria into 2 compartments  
🗑
show -matrix is within the inner membrane -intermembrane space is located between the two membranes  
🗑
show Do  
🗑
show 47) Mitochondria-contain oxidative metabolism enzymes for transferring the energy within macromolecules to ATP  
🗑
48) What do Chloroplasts do?   show
🗑
show -they contain chlorophyll for photosynthesis and create their own food.  
🗑
50) Describe the build of Chloroplasts and its functions.   show
🗑
51) Describe Endosymbiosis   show
🗑
show -mitochondria and chloroplasts  
🗑
53) Thee Endosymbiosis theory is supported by what facts?   show
🗑
54) What is the Cytoskeleton? What does it do?   show
🗑
55) Eukaryotic cells may contain three types of cytoskeletal fibers. What are they and what do they do?   show
🗑
56) What does myosin do?   show
🗑
show -9-2 structure: 9 pairs of microtubules surrounded by a 2 central microtubules -Cilia are usually more numerous than flagella on a cell.  
🗑
58) What roles do Flagella and Cilia Play?   show
🗑
59) What is the Extracellular matrix (ECM)   show
🗑
