Book Notes Flashcards
Prokaryotes or eukaryotes have a nucleus
eurkaryotes
surfers in the eukaryotes are hydrophobic or hydrophilic
they are hydrophilic
these structures hydrolyze enzymes
lysosomes
this structure permits the translation of proteins destined for secretion directly into its lumen
Rough Er
this structure does lipid synthesis and detoxification; transports proteins from the RER to the Golgi apparatus
smooth ER
this is a membrane bound sac that’s good for exocytosis
Golgi apparatus
these break down very long chains of fatty acids with β-oxidation
peroxisomes
actin and myosin are examples of
microfilaments
structure of centriole
9 triplets of microtubules
pseudostratified epithelia
appears to have multiple layers, but is just one layer
spherical shaped bacteria is
cocci
rod shaped bacteria is
bacilli
gram + cells walls have a thick layer of —
peptidoglycan
chemotaxis
ability to move toward or away from stimuli
a subset of plasmid
episome
the only genetic recombination process that requires a vector
transduction
genetic elements that are capable of inserting and removing themselves from the genome
transposons
the protein coat of a virus
capsid
positive vs negative sense viruses
in positive sense, the genome may be directly translated to functional proteins by ribosomes of the host cell and in negative sense, it requires synthesis of an RNA strand complementary to the negative-sense RNA strand which can then be used as a template for protein synthesis
