Q

characteristics of eukaryotic cells

A
  • 10-100pu
  • two or more linear DNA molecules confined to a nucleus
  • ribosomes attached to membranes and free in cytoplasm
  • some have cell wall

Q

how did eukaryotic cells arise from ancient prokaryotic cells

A
  1. loss of cell wall
  2. development of cytoskeleton
  3. origin of a nuclear envelope
  4. ribosomes became associated with internal membranes
  5. formation of digestive vesicles (lysosomes0

Q

what do cytoskeletons do for eukaryotes ?

A
  • provide cell support
  • allow changes in support
    -move materials around the cell

Q

endoplasmic reticulum

A

the outer membrane of the nuclear envelope folds outward into the c cytoplasm and is continuous with the e3n do plasmic reticulum

Q

digestive vasculoes

A

the ability to engulf and digest other cells in digestive vacuoles was an important step

17
Q

lysosomes

A
  • small membranous sacs
  • produced by Golgi apparatus
  • contain digestive enzymes
18
Q

mitochondria

A
  • found in all eukaryotic cells
  • sites of cellular respiration
  • contain ribosomes and their own dna (mana)
19
Q

chloroplasts

A
  • sites of photosynthesis
  • contain ribosomes and their own dna
  • found only in plant and algae protists celll
20
Q

what are the different types of reproduction in eukaryotes

A
  • asexual
  • conjugation
  • sexual reproduction
21
Q

cell division

A

mitosis + cytokinesis

22
Q

multiple fission

A
  • splitting of one multi nucleat3e cell into many cells
23
Q

budding

A

outgrowth of new cell from surface of an old one

24
Q

asexual spre

A

specialized cells that develop into new organism

25
conjugation
sexual process involving exchange of genetic material without reproduction, carried out by paramecium
26
sexual reproduction
involves production of gametes by meiosis
27
diplontic life cycle
diploid , multicellular organism undergoes meiosis
28
haplontic life cycle
haploid , multicellular organism undergoes mitosis to produce unicellular haploid gametes
29
dipolo multicellular spore
producing organism alternates with a haploid , multicellular gamete producing organism ( gametophyte)
