Module 1 Flashcards
Prokaryotes (2)
Simple structures without membrane bound organelles
Asexual Reproductin
Eukaryotes (2)
Larger more complex with membrane-bound organelles
Asexual and sexual reproduction
Synthesis of lipids and proteins (5)
Nucleus
Ribosomes
Rough and Smooth Endoplasmic reticulum
Golgi Apparatus
Lysosome
Energy Transformation (2)
Mitochondria is animals and plants
Chloroplast for plants and protists
Storage and cell structure (6)
Vacuoles
Plastids
Cell Wall
Cytoskeleton
Centrioles
Cilia and Flagella
Cell Membrane (2)
Semi permeable bi phospholipid layer
Protein channels too
Function of proteins (3)
Provide channels for water-soluble particles
Catalyse reactions
communicate with other cells
Passive Diffusion (3)
Simple - permeable substances
Facilitated - via protein channels that is faster than simple
Osmosis - movement of water
Active Transport (2)
Endocytosis - moving into the cell
Exocytosis - moving out of the cell
Autotrophs vs. Heterotrophs (2)
Autotrophs - makes its own food
Heterotrophs - obtain nutrients from eating other organisms or their products
Components (2)
Inorganic - water, oxygen, Co2, nitrogen
Organic - carbs, lipids, proteins, vitamins and minerals
Photosynthesis (2)
carbon dioxide + water > oxygen plus glucose
6CO2 + 6H2O > C6H12O6 + 6O2
Cellular Respiration (2)
Oxygen + glucose > water + carbon dioxide + energy
6O2 + C6H12O2 > 6H2O + 6CO2 + ATP
Enzymes Factors (4)
Temperature
pH
Concentration
Cofactors
Enzymes (2)
Used to catalyse specific reactions
Increase rate of reaction
