Q

What is the endomembrame system

A

The endomembrane system is composed of a number of inter-related membrane sacs within the cytoplasm of the cell.
Gives eukaryotes complexity

Q

Endoplasmic rectilium- animal

A

Protien and lipid synthesis

Ribosomes

17
Q

Lysosome-animal cell

A

Degrade macromolecules

18
Q

Vacuoles

A

Storage bubbles

19
Q

Golgi apparatus- animal cell

A

Lots of SA

Modifies and sorts proteins and lipids as they move to their final destination in or out of the cell

20
Q

Mitochondria endosymbiotic origins

A

Alpha proteobacterial endosymbiont
One organism engulfed another and are living in symbiosis
The bacteria-undergoes oxidative phosphorylation inside the old eukaryote cell- now the mitochondria

21
Q

Plastids came from..

A

Cyanobacteria (blue-green) algae endosymbiont

22
Q

Evidence for endosymbiotic origins

A
  • circular dna
  • independent fission
  • size
  • double membrane-another engulf
  • certain protiens specific to bacterial cell membrane are also in mito/chloro membranes
  • 70s ribosomes
  • prokaryote dna in eukaryote genome
23
Q

Cyanobacteria, great oxygenation event

A

Billion yrs after cyanobacteria start making O2
High o2 levels oxidative phosphorylation ~~> drive oxygen into –> large organism
Mitochond and aerobic resp then multicellularity

24
Q

Origins of multicell life theories

A

Symbiotic theory
Syncytial theory
Colonial theory

Cell cell adhesion is required for multicell lifetime

25
Symbiotic theory for multicellularity
Cells with different abilities work together, then join | Problem: how would they all have a similar genome
26
Syncytial theory for multicellularity
Single organism Divides into different genomes --> becomes multicell Problem-- we have never seen this
27
Colonial theory for multicellularity
Cell-cell adhesion | Read about this theory because wtf notes
28
Selective advantages of multicellularity
Division of labour and economy of scale Increased size Complexity-good for competition -predator/prey and host/parasite interactions -increased opportunity for diversity in form/function and niches -light sensing as example
29
Most unicellular organisms use phagocytosis to
Get energy But can only consume things smaller than its self, meaning it can only get so big Easy to eat
30
Advatages of increased size- multicellularity
``` Avoid predation/ eat larger things Exploit new environments Storage-lipid cells Increased feeding opportunites Protected internal environment New metabolic functions-create heat through metabolism Enhanced motility-tissues dedicated to moving Increased traction in current/wind Reach upwards(photosynthesis) Share info with other cells ```
31
Light sensing
Cyanobacteria-absorb and detect light using a chromophore, initiates other reactions but cant move directly towards light Plants/marine rag worm- pigment cell adds directionality when light detected Vertebrate eye- brigtness,direction, shape,color, movement
32
Challenges of multicellularity and largeness (SA/V)
As organisms get large SA/V decreases -limits prokaryote size, who rely on cell membrane alone for transport and atp -limits eukaryotes even though they have mitochondria and endomembrame system since they must create structures to allow exchange and rapid transport (Lungs/ leaves)
33
Why dont prokaryotes become large?
No selective pressure Good strategy Weaker cytoskeleton
34
Challenges of being multicell and large
- Intercellular communication - cell adhesion - structure and support - homeostasis - reproduction and growth
35
How do multicellular organisms solve the problem of intercellular communication?
- diffusion - gap juntions-protien link between cells - plasmodesmata- in plants - bulk flow- mass movement of solutions and their content over long distances - nerves- rapid communication over long distances
36
How do multicellular organism solve the challenge of structure and support?
Change in body dimensions
37
How do multicellular organism solve the challenge of homeostasis?
Defend cells against hostile environment
