A

1) All organisms are made of cells
2) Cells are smallest things with the properties of life
3) Originally described as all cells some from preexisting cells

Q

Archaea =?

A

Produce their own energy, but not via photosynthesis

Uses environmental heat or utilize methane or nitrogen compounds instead of CO2

Survive at VERY hot temperatures = thermophilic

Q

Why do cells have to divide?

A

As cells grow, eventually it’ll get to big to meet their demands & must divide

Q

What does each kind of protein do?

A

Transport = allow molecules to be move

Adhesion = help cells stick together

Recognition = ID the cell as specific type of cell

Receptor = allow for molecules to bind to the outside of the cell & alter the cell’s activities

15
Q

Cytoskeleton =?

A

Consists of microtubles & microfilaments; gives the cell shape; move other organelle to where they need to be wishing the cell

16
Q

What are the two sub parts of the cytoskeleton & what does each one do?

A

Microfilaments: pull DNA apart during cell division & anchor membrane proteins, and form pseudopods

Microtubles: help in cell division, keeps organelles in place or move them I needed to be moved, allow cell movements, and form centrioles in animal cells

17
Q

Cilia =?

A

Short, hair like appendages extending from the surface of a living cell

18
Q

Cilia is made from?

A

Microtubles

19
Q

Flagella =?

A

Long, threadlike appendages on the surface of a living cell

20
Q

Flagella is made from?

A

Microtubles

21
Q

Nucleus =?

A

Not found in prokaryotes, houses cell DNA

22
Q

Nucleus Envelope =?

A

Has 2 nuclear bolsters, pores allow materials in/out

23
Q

Nucleolus =?

A

Dark region inside the nucleus, makes ribosomes, surround with chromatin, and composed of proteins and DNA

24
Q

ER =?

A

Is rough and smooth, has a phospholipid membrane, has important proteins for cellular respiration.

25
Q

How does smooth differ from rough ER?

A

Smooth: no attached ribosomes, detoxifies some drug, makes lipids and carbs, stores calcium

Rough: has attached ribosomes, modified proteins, aids in folding of proteins and transports protein throughout the cell

26
Q

Golgi =?

A

Has a membrane and several membranes “stacked” on top of each other, modifies and ships proteins, creates lysosomes

27
Q

Lysosomes =?

A

Intercellular digestion

28
Q

Mitochondria =?

A

ATP formation or makes ATP; only in animal cell

29
Q

Chloroplast =?

A

Photosynthesis; only in plant cells

30
Q

Vacuole =?

A

Storage in plant cells

31
Q

Cell wall =?

A

Tough outer layer that help protect the plant cell

32
Q

Ribosomes =?

A

Converts RNA into proteins

33
Q

Pili/Pilus =?

A

Short, filamentous projection on a bacterial cell; used not for mobility but for adhering to other bacterial cell or animal cell

34
Q

Capsules =?

A

The outer layer that lies outside the cell envelope of a bacterial cell

35
Q

Which organelles are only in plant cells?

A

Cell wall, plasma membrane, nucleus, DNA, nucleolus, ribosome, ER, Golgi, mitochondria, chloroplast, vacuole
