Bio Chapter 4 Review Flashcards
What do all cells have in common?
plasma membrane is selective
contain cytosol
chromosomes
ribosomes that make proteins
What are the differences between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells? Location of DNA?
Eukaryotic - membrane enclosed nucleus
Prokaryotic - non-membrane enclosed nucleoid
What are the differences between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells? Organelles?
Eukaryotic: membrane-bound organelles
What are the differences between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells? Cell size?
Eukaryotic: Big
Prokaryotic: Small
4 types of eukaryotic cells
animal, plant, fungi, protist
Nucleus
- store of genetic information
- nucleolus
- contains chromosomes
Nuclear envelope
double membrane to enclose nucleus
Nuclear lamina:
Protein filaments
maintain shape of nucleus
Nuclear pores
entry and exit of proteins, RNA
Nucleolus
where ribosmal RNA is made
DNA:
basic unit of genetic instructions
Gene
sequence of DNA carries genetic instructions
Chromosome
long DNA molecule of many genes
Chromatin
uncondensed DNA and protein sturcture
How do ribosomes make proteins?
Location:
endoplasmic reticulum
scattered in cytosol
