test 2 Flashcards
theory?
statement based off of much testing
cell theory?
1)asic unit of organization, 2) all organisms consist of 1 or more cells, 3) all cells arise from preexsisting cells
cell structure
-all cells have DNA, plasma memrane cytoplasm
cell size limitations- diffusion, surface area to volume ratio, control of cell by nucleus
gradient, moving from area of high to low concentration
basic cell types
prokaryote an eukayote
prokaryote structure
nucleoid region, ribosomes (no organelles), cell wall (exception genus Mycoplasma)
eukarote cells
nucleus, ribosomes and organelles (membrane bound), depending on the group it may have a cell wall (if present will have cellulose of chitin)
mycoplasma
no cell wall, pleomorphic (varied shape), has plasma membrane strenghtened with sterol molecules, needs outside source of cholestorol (our food, like on teeth)
microplasma pneumoniae
atypical wlaking neumonia, dont show severe symptoms, 5-19 year olds,
genus Spiroplasma
tiny spiral bacteria that lack cell walls, cause 100’s of type of crop/ animal diseases, difficult to culture outside of host (ticks, insects and plants) usda researcher created 80 ingredient formula that allows for the study of over 30 species in the genus
types of prokaryotes
Kingdom Archeabacteria, (Eu)bacteria
similarities of prokaryotes
- bianary fission for cell division, no true nucleus for mitosis/meosis
- chromosomes, 1 circular DNA molecule, 1 or more plasmids (tiny circular non-chromasonal DNA w/ additional genetic material
- flagella, propeller type motion, chemiosmatic phophorylation for energy (not ATP)
differences in prokaryotes (genes
bacteria-no introns (no direction sections) only exons (direction sections for building polypeptides
Archeabacteria- some genus also have introns
differences in prokaryotes (cell walls)
bacteria- has peptidoglycan
archeabacteria- no peptidoglycan
differences in prokaryotes habitats
archeabacteria are in more extreme habitats
origin of eukaryote cells
endosybiant theory, this theory is supported by the mitochondria, has cellwlass and basic structure
chloroplast-some DNA material
