Chapter 7 info Flashcards
What do all cells have?
- nucleic acids (information)
- proteins (most cell functions)
- carbs (chemical E, carbon, support, and identity
- plasma membrane (selectively permeable barrier)
- lipids (storing energy)
what do all living things do?
- maintain homeostasis
- reproduction
- react and respond (sensitivity)
- growth
- metabolize
- movement
- excretion
- nutrition
what are prokaryotic cells?
bacteria and archaea
what are eukaryotic cells?
animals and plants
parts of a prokaryotic cell
- nucleoid
- plasmids
- ribosomes
- plasma membrane
- cell wall
- Flagella
- fimbriae
function of a nucleiod
singular circular chromosome; DNA (no membrane)
functions of Ribosomes
protein manufacturing:
- internal membranes for photosynthesis
- organelles -> storage sacs
- cytoskeleton -> protein filaments
what makes up a plasma membrane
made of a phospholipid bilayer
function of cell wall
protects the whole cell
what are the two other external structures in prokaryotes
flagella and fimbriae
how many chromosomes are in prokaryotic cells?
one chromosome -> haploid
- gene gets directly passed to the offspring because there is only one
prokaryote size
0.0005 mm
name eukaryotic cell parts
- ribosomes
- mitochondria
- nucleus
- golgi apparatus
- lysosomes
- vacuoles
- peroxisomes
- chloroplasts
- plasma membrane
- cell wall
- endoplasmic reticulum (smooth and rough)
mitochondria function
provides energy (ATP) for the rest of the cell to function
cytoskeleton function
provides structure of the cell and organizes components for movement
