2nd Nine Weeks Exam Flashcards
How does yeast make energy
Breaks down sugar
Who isolated the fungus, penicillium?
Flemming
Penicillium is used to
Kill bacteria
Examples of Protista
Euglena, amoeba, paramecium (live in watery environments)
Amoebas move with
Pseudopodia
Protista can be
Heterotrophs, autotrophs, or both
Eubacteria examples
Streptococcus, e.coli, salmonella
Common shapes for eubacteria
Round, spiral, and rod
Bacteria are considered
Prokaryotes
Prokaryotes:
Do not have nuclei, instead their genetic material is lying loosely in the cytoplasm
Bacteria cells always have
Ribosomes
Decomposers:
Return important nutrients into the environment
Eukaryote:
Contains a nucleus
Kingdom plantae: unicellular or multicellular
Multicellular
Autotrophic
Contains chloroplast
Plantae are eukaryotic or prokaryotic?
Eukaryotic
Animalia is either prokaryotic or eukaryotic?
Eukaryotic
Animalia: multi or uni cellular
Multi
Heterotrophs
No chloroplasts
Cell wall
Provides structure support and protection
Cell membrane
Controls what enters and exits the cell
Nucleus
Controls the cell
Mitochondria
Converts energy from food into useable energy for the cell
Vacuoles
Store food, water and other materials
Lysosomes
Break down worn out organelles and food
What’s carbs ratio and what elements does it contain
1:2:1 of C H O
Monosaccharides
Simple sugar
Example of polymers
Starch and cellulose
Same molecular formula but different structures
Isomers
Proteins
Chains of amino acids bonded together by peptide bonds
Polypeptide is a
Chain of amino acids
Examples of proteins
Hemoglobin, collagen, keratin
Diglyceride
2 fatty acids and a glycerol head
Maximum number of hydrogens
Saturated
Used for long term energy storage
Lipids
Nucleotide
Nitrogen base, phosphate group, and five carbon sugar
DNA and RNA are examples of
Nucleic acids
The bonding of multiple molecules to make bigger ones while taking out water
Dehydration synthesis
Break down large molecules into smaller molecules while adding water
Hydrolysis
Classification of living organisms
Taxonomy
The more classification levels organisms share,
The more they have in common
An organisms scientific name comes from its
Genus and species
Broadest level of classification
Domain
The two domains consisting of only prokaryotes
Archaea and bacteria
Must consume food
Heterotrophs
Autotroph
Can consume food
Examples of fungi
Yeast, mushroom, mold (thrive in damp environments)
