Eukaryotes

Question 1

What does the plasma membrane do for eukaryotes?

Answer 1

Controls entry/exit of nutrients and waste

Question 2

What do lysosomes do for eukaryotes?

Answer 2

Contains digestive enzymes for breaking down nutrient molecules and dead cell parts for recycling

Question 3

What do free ribosomes do for eukaryotes?

Answer 3

Produce proteins to be used by this cell

Question 4

What does cytoplasm do for eukaryotes?

Answer 4

Contains enzymes and solutes needed for metabolic reactions within the cell as well as dissolving mineral ions, nutrients and waste

Question 5

What does the rough endoplasmic reticulum (with ribosomes) do for eukaryotes?

Answer 5

Ribosomes on rough ER produce proteins to be exported from the cell

Question 6

What does the nuclear membrane do for eukaryotes?

Answer 6

Allows things to enter/exit the nucleus

Question 7

What does the Golgi apparatus do for eukaryotes?

Answer 7

Modules and packages proteins produced in rough ER to be exported by the ell via exocytosis

Question 8

What does the nucleus do for eukaryotes?

Answer 8

Membrane bound nucleus contains all genetic information in chromosomes. The nucleus is a densely packed area of DNA

Question 9

What does mitochondria do for eukaryotes?

Answer 9

Site for respiration; converts sugars in ATP

Question 10

What does the nucleiod do for eukaryotes?

Answer 10

A dense solid structure involved in ribosomes synthesis

Question 11

Compared to a city what is the plasma membrane

Answer 11

The city wall ~ gate keeper

Question 12

Compared to a city what is the lysosomes

Answer 12

Garbage people

Question 13

Compared to a city what is the rough ER with ribosomes

Answer 13

A factory

Question 14

Compared to a city what is the Golgi apparatus

Answer 14

UPS

Question 15

Compared to a city what is the nucleus

Answer 15

Town hall

Question 16

Compared to a city what is the mitochondria

Answer 16

Power house, power plant

Question 17

Define- eukaryotes

Answer 17

Contain ‘true’ nucleus and membrane bound organelles

Question 18

Compare prokaryotes and eukaryotes

Answer 18

Prokaryotes-very small
Eukaryotes-very big
Prokaryotes-bacteria
Eukaryotes-cells that make up organisms
Prokaryotes-simple
Eukaryotes-complex
Both have ribosomes and a nucleiod

Question 19

3 differences between plant and animal cells

Answer 19

1) cell wall vs. cell membrane
2) vacuole
3) lysosomes vs. chloroplasts

Question 20

What does the vacuole for plant cells

Answer 20

It’s filled with water and sugars that makes up majority of the cell

Question 21

What is extra cellular components

Answer 21

A barrier between the cell membrane and the cell wall

Question 22

Two roles for extra cellular components

Answer 22

Glycoproteins surrounds the outside of a animal cell outside of the cell membrane that has a mixture of proteins and sugars

Plant cells have EC components that protects the shape of the cell and provides a filter mechanism to keep cells in order so that they are not too filled with water

Question 23

What is an extra cellular?

Answer 23

Extra ‘outside’ cellular ‘the cell’

Question 24

What is the endosymbiont theory?

Answer 24

Smaller unicellular organisms were engulfed and became part of a larger organisms, eventually specializing to become organelles within the cell

Question 25

Size of a eukaryote

Answer 25

10-100 um or 80S

Question 26

What are chloroplasts

Answer 26

Contain chlorophyll that helps with photosynthesis

Question 27

How to tell tell the difference in chloroplasts and mitochondria

Answer 27

Mitochondria has squiggles that are vertical and chloroplasts has lines going horizontal

Question 28

What is turgor pressure?

Answer 28

Water pressure inside the vacuole

Question 29

What does high turgor do

Answer 29

Support the plant against gravity and has a high hydrostatic pressure and it known as a turgid cell

Question 30

What is low turgor

Answer 30

Wilting plant hat has a low hydrostatic pressure and is known as a flaccid cell
