Cells
Where is DNA found in the cell?
Nucleus
What is an example of a Eukaryotic cell?
Plants, animals, fungi!
Are fungi prokaryotic?
No!
What does DNA look like? (Draw a picture)
Double helix!
What is a diploid cell?
A cell with 2 chromosomes pairing! Haploid contain only one unpaired chromosome
What is a difference between prokaryotes and eukaryotes?
1. Size
2. Complexity
3. Nucleus
4. Vacuole
What is the difference between Smooth and Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum?
Rough ER contains ribosomes
What is an example of a prokaryotic cell?
Bacteria, Flagellum, Pili
What kind of sugar is found in DNA?
DNA: Deoxyribose Nucleic Acid
RNA: Ribose Nucleic Acid
What causes a cell to become cancerous?
The cell has an error during cell division, causing the cell to divide uncontrollably.
What is a principle of Cell Theory?
1. All cells are made up of preexisting cells
2. Organisms are made up of 1 or more cells
3. Cells are the basic structure and function of life
What is the powerhouse of the cell?
Mitochondria!
Name an organelle that is found in a Eukaryotic cell but NOT in a prokaryotic cell.
Nucleus, Lysosomes, Mitochondria, Golgi apparatus, ER, Centrioles
Use Chargaff's Rule to determine how much Cytosine is in a sample of DNA that contains 20% Adenine
30% Cytosine
30% Guanine
20% Adenine
20% Thymine
In which phase are chromosomes separated? Draw a picture for extra points!
Anaphase!
What is the function of a ribosome?
To make proteins!
When a cell releases lysosomes (trash can!), causing the cell to "pop", self destructing
What is the cytoplasm?
Jelly-substance in which organelles are suspended in a cell
Give the complimentary strand of DNA for ACC TCG TAG
TGG AGC ATC
What type of cells go through Mitosis?
Non-sexual cells (Egg and sperm cells). So some examples include skin and plant cells!
Who was the first person to see cells?
Robert Hooke
What is an organelle found ONLY in plant cells?
1. Larger central vacuole
2. Cell wall
3. Chloroplasts
What are 2 organelles found in all cells?
1. Ribosomes
2. Cytoplasm
3. DNA
4. Cytoskeleton
5. Cell Membrane
