Q

Describe the 4 phases of binary fission

A
1 = attach chromosome to plasma membrane 
2 = DNA replication to produce 2 identical copies 
3 = break down cell wall to form 2 daughter bacteria cells 
4 = 2 identical bacteria cells

14
Q

Describe a chemoautotroph

A

Nitrogen fixing bacteria
Fix N2 into ammonia
Plants use ammonia as fertilizer to make all their amino acids

Q

Describe a photoautotroph

Does photosynthesis with w/o a chloroplast 
Called cyanobacteria (common name = blue algae)

Q

Describe how to perform photosynthesis without a chloroplast

A

Chlorophyll is in the infolding of the plasma membrane
Uses sunlight and works the same
Exchange between glucose and nitrogen fixing/nucleotides/amino acids in other cell

Q

Describe the domain eukarya

A

Organisms are composes of eukaryotic cells

18
Q

Name the subgroups in eukarya

A

Protists
Kingdom fungi
Kingdom plantae
Kingdom animalia

19
Q

Describe the subgroups of protists

A
Autotroph = algae/photosynthesis (cell wall)
Heterotroph = animal like protists (no cell wall, motile)
20
Q

What are animal like protists classified by

A

How they move

21
Q

Describe the 3 types of movement by animal like protists

A

Moves with cilia
Moves with pseudopods
Spread by spores

22
Q

Describe animal like protists which move by cilia

A

Paramecium (lives in freshwater)
Unicellular
Contractile vacuole to expel water using ATP

23
Q

Describe animal like protists which move by pseudopods

A

Amoeba

Use pseudopods for moving and for phagocytosis

24
Q

Describe animal like protists which are spread by spores

25
What are plant like protists classified by
Pigments
26
What is green algae
Believed to be the ancestor to land plants
27
Describe the similarities between green algae and kingdom plantae
``` Similar cell wall composition Similar cell plate during cell division Similar enzymes in peroxisome Same chlorophyll Gametophyte produces a flagellated sperm (swimming sperm) ```
28
Describe kingdom fungi
Eukaryotes Heterotroph Cell wall of chitin Multicellular except yeast (unicellular)
29
Describe heterotrophs in relation to kingdom fungi
Secrete enzymes in their environment Hydrolysis of polymers Absorb monomers through cell wall
30
Describe the modes of feeding of heterotrophs in relation to kingdom fungi
Pathogens (disease causing) Saprobe/decomposer = feeding on dead matter Breakdown organic matter into inorganic, become fertilizer for plants
31
What is a symbiotic relationship
Two species living together
32
What is a mutualistic symbiotic relationship
Both benefit
33
Give an example of a mutualistic symbiotic relationship
Fungi and a plant Fungi uses mycorrhizae to enter root of plants Fungi provides minerals to the plant Plant provides product of photosynthesis (glucose) to fungi
34
What is a lichen symbiotic relationship
Combination of a fungi and an algae Mutualistic symbiosis Fungi provides a home for algae Algae is photosynthesis
35
Describe the life cycle of fungi (yeast)
Yeast is unicellular (haploid) Does mitosis called budding Buds a new haploid cell = 2 cells now
36
Describe mushrooms
Mushrooms are reproductive bodies composed of haploid cells, no tissues Hair like structure called hypha Mass hyphae forms a mycelium
37
How can a mushroom spread
Spores or underground network of hyphae
38
Describe sexual reproduction of mushrooms
Fusing gametangia to form a fertilized egg Called zygote (diploid, only stage that is diploid) Zygote undergoes meiosis to form haploid cells Mitosis forms multicellular haploid organisms
39
How is kingdom fungi similar to kingdom plantae
Cell wall Spreading by spores Anchored/sessile
40
How is kingdom fungi similar to kingdom animalia
Heterotroph Storing glycogen Centrosome/centrioles
