Bio lesson #2 Flashcards
Control centre of the cell
Nucleus
Code for life
DNA/Genes
This a structure found inside the nucleus
Chromosomes
These are made of Proteins and DNA
Chromosomes (each cell normally has 23 pairs)
These has no true nucleus
Prokaryotic (Unicellular)
These has true nucleus
Eukaryotic (Multi-cellular)
Kingdoms that belong to Eukaryotic/eukaryotes
Animalia
Plantae
Fungi
Protista
What are the most fundamental properties of cells
Cells are highly complex and organized
Cells posses a genetic program and the means to use it
Cells are capable of producing more of themselves
Cells acquire and utilize energy
Cells carry out a variety of chemical reactions
Cells engage in mechanical activities
Cells are able to respond to stimuli
Cells are capable of self-regulation
Cells evolve
What are the two basic classes of cells
Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic
rank from the smallest thing to the biggest
Atoms - cells - molecules -tissues- organs - organ system - organism - population - biosphere
This obtains high resolution images of biological and non-biological specimens
Electron microscope
This has same genetic form of parent cells
Mitosis
This has unique genetic material
Miosis
What does Eu and Kor mean
True, kernel
This is made up of liquid and fills every living cell in our bodies
Cytoplasm
a number of organized or specialized structures within a living cell
Organelle
What does Glyco and Lysis mean
Glucose, Break up
What is the last acceptor of the electron
Oxygen
What is transported into mitochondria for further oxidation
Glycolysis
This is a series of chemical reaction that break down glucose to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP)
Cellular Respiration
What are three main steps of cellular respiration
Glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation
