Cell Structure and Function
What is the difference between a prokaryotic cell and a eukaryotic cell?
eukaryotic cells are multicellular and contains compartments and a nucleus.
prokaryotic cells are simple cells that does not contain a nucleus and internal compartments
He was the first to identify cells and name them.
Robert Hooke
What are the products of photosynthesis?
glucose and oxygen
glycolysis, krebs cycle, electron transport chain
What are the four bases of RNA
Adenine
Uracil
Guanine
Cytosine
What is the function of a lysosome?
recycles wastes
He made better lenses and observed cells in greater detail.
Anton van Leeuwenhoek
Which reaction is located in the stroma of a chloroplast?
light-independent reaction
This stage splits glucose and makes ATP
Glycolysis
What makes up a nucleotide?
Sugar, phosphate, base
what is the function of the mitochondria?
make energy for the cell
He was the first to note that plants are made of cells.
Matthias Schleiden
chlorophyll
This stage is the first to take place in the mitochondria and produces molecules that carry energy.
Krebs cycle
What are the key players of DNA replication?
Helicase
Primase
DNA Polymerase
Ligase
What is the function of the endoplasmic reticulum?
make and transport protein and other substances
He was the first to conclude that all living things are made of cells.
Theoodor Schwann
In photosynthesis, what color(s) are plants able to absorb?
red and blue
Electron Transport Chain
__ helps keep DNA strands separated during the replication process.
SSB Proteins
What is the function of the golgi apparatus?
sort, package, and distribute materials within a cell.
Proposed that all cells come from other cells.
Rudolph Virchow
What happens during the light-dependent reaction?
water molecules split into protons, electrons, and oxygen
what are the products of cellular respiration?
carbon dioxide, water, and ATP energy
This process uses messages from DNA to create amino acids.
