what are cristae

A

inner membrane infoldings where the enzymes used in respiration are embedded

17
Q

what does a ribosome contain

A

intermembrane space
inner membrane space
outer membrane
cristae
matrix

18
Q

what does chlorophyll contain

A

dna
glucose stroed in starch grain
ribosomes
granum - stack of membrane called thylakoid which is where enzymes containing photosynthesis are attatched

19
Q

whats different about the dna in chlorophyll

A

shorter,fewer genes which are circular
not linked by special proteins called histomes

20
Q

what do golgi vesicles do

A

store and transport modified proteins and lipids from the golgi apparatus to target cell

21
Q

name the differences between eukaryotes and prokaryotes

A

no membrane bound organells
smaller ribosomes
cell wall that contains murein(glycoprotein)
no plasmids

22
Q

what do prokaryotes contain that is different to eukaryotes

A

one or more plasmids
capsule surrounding cell
one or more flagella

23
Q

4 key features of a virus

A

non living
can not reproduce on its own
cant generate its own energy
no cytoplasm

24
Q

why are viruses not considered cells

A

they don’t contain a cytoplasm

25
Q

state the structure of virus

A

attachment proteins
lipid envelope
matrix
capsid
genetic material(rna)
reverse transcriptase(enzyme)

26
Q

what is the capsid

A

a protein coat that protects the genetic material

27
Q

what is the lipid envelope do

A

layer of membrane around capsid
not always present

28
Q

what do the attachment sites do

A

proteins on the surface which allow virus to bind host cell surface and enter it

29
Q

state the structure of a bacterium

A

pilli
flagella
capsule
cell wall
plasma membrane
cytoplasm
nucleiod
food granule
ribosomes

30
Q

what is the function of the capsule and cell all

A

capsule - protects bacterium from other cells and helps to stick to another bacterium

CELL WALL - protects from physical damage

31
Q

what does the nuceloid do

A

contains genetic material for reproduction

32
Q

food granule function (found in cytoplasm)

A

a food store

33
Q

what do plasmids do (2 things)

A

contains genes that help bacterium survive
codes for enzymes that break down antibiotics

34
Q

function of pili (2 things)

A

help bacterium attach to host

used in transfer of plasmids
