the organization of the body:
whole human body, 11 body system, 60+ organs, 4 types of tissues, and trillions of cells
muscular tissue:
movement of the skeleton.
ex: beating heart
connective tissue:
makes up bones, cartilage and blood.
it connects the organs together.
nervous tissues:
conducts electrical impulses through the brain, spinal cord, and nerves.
Epithelial tissue:
makes up the skin, internal lining of internal pathways, and glands
nucleus
control center and contains genetic information
Endoplasmic reticulum:
synthesizes proteins and ships them all around the cell
can be smooth or rough
mitochondria:
converts food into ATP; powerhouse of the cell
Golgi apparatus:
transports materials around the cell in sacs called vesicles.
lysosomes:
breaks down waste
centrioles:
aid in cell division
vacuoles:
stores nutrients and water
what genetic material is found in a cell?
there are 46 chromosomes made of DNA found in the nucleus
What is the shape of DNA?
Double helix;twisted ladder
the sides of the ladder are made up of:
sugar and phosphates
the middle of ladder is made up of:
nitrogen bases; adenine, thymine, guanine, cytosine
Adenine always goes with:
Thymine
Cytosine always goes with:
guanine
A goes with T and C goes with G is called
base paring
DNA is used to code for all ____ around the body
proteins
The two major processes on how to create proteins are
translation and transcription
Transcription is the process of converting ____ into ____
DNA into mRNA message
The DNA template changes what base pairing?
When there is an “a” first then “u” will be paired not “t” but “t” will pair with “a” if “t” is first
During translation ____ leave the nucleus to create proteins in the____
mRNA strands, ribosomes
During translation ____ molecules bring in ____ ____ to match with ____ codons
tRNA, Amino acids, mRNA
