Cell parts and processes
Define a cell.
A cell is the smallest living thing (NOT the building blocks of life!), and are the basic unit of all living things.
What do the following parts of a cell preform for a cell?
Cell membrane
Cell wall
Cell membrane-controls what goes in and out of a cell.
Cell wall-gives plant cells support and helps keep water in.
What are all of the domains?
All three domains are Archaea or Archaebacteria, Bacteria, and Eukarya.
Name all 4 kingdoms in the Eukaryote domain.
All 4 kingdoms are Animals, Plants, Fungi, and Protists.
What dose a carnivore eat?
A carnivore eats only meat.
How do you determine the magnification of a microscope?
Magnification of the objective x magnification of eyepiece (usually 10x).
What do the following parts of a cell preform for a cell?
Chloroplast
Lysosome
Chloroplast-in plant cells for photosynthesis
Lysosome-in animal cells, breaks down food.
What is a characteristic of Eukarya.
A characteristic of Eukarya is that Eukarya includes the 4 kingdoms we are familiar with.
What is some characteristics of the animal kingdom?
Some characteristics of the animal kingdom are that all animals are consumers, and multicellular.
What dose a herbivore eat?
A herbivore eats only plants.
How do plant cells and animal cells differ?
Plant cells do not have lysosomes and have cell walls and chloroplast that animal cells don't. Plant cells also have very large vacuoles.
What do the following parts of a cell preform for a cell?
Mitochondria
Nucleus
Mitochondria-in all cells makes energy from food (dose respiration).
Nucleus-contains DNA and controls all cell functions.
What is a characteristic of Archaea?
A characteristic of Archaea is that the live in extreme environments, most likely the 1st organisms to evolve.
What are some characteristics of the plant kingdom?
Some characteristics of the plant kingdom are that plants are producers, and plants are multicellular.
What dose a scavenger eat?
Scavengers eat dead animals.
What is the difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells?
Prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus around its genetic material. Eukaryotic ones do, eukaryotic cells are more complex than prokaryotic cells.
What do the following parts of a cell preform for a cell?
E.R.
Ribosome
E.R.-transports things around the cell.
Ribosome-makes proteins.
What is a characteristic of Bacteria?
A characteristic of Bacteria is that they still have DNA even though they don't have a nucleus.
What are some characteristics of the fungi kingdom?
Some characteristics of the fungi kingdom are that fungi are decomposers, and multicellular.
What dose an omnivore eat?
An Omnivore eats both plants and animals.
What 3 things do all cells have in common?
What are the 3 parts of the cell theory?
3 things all cells have in common:
Cell membrane
Genetic material
Cytoplasm
3 parts of the cell theory:
All living things are made of cells.
All cells come from other cells (NOT are made of cells!).
Cells are the basic structure and function of all living things.
What do the following parts of a cell preform for a cell?
Golgi body
Vacuole
Cytoplam
Golgi body-packages proteins for transport.
Vacuole-storage of waste, water, and food. Big in plant cells.
Cytoplasm-fills cell and keeps things in place. Sometimes helps with movement of things within the cell.
Which domains have a nucleus?
Only Eukarya have a nucleus.
What are some characteristics of the protists kingdom?
Some characteristics of the protists kingdom are that protists are made up of some consumers, some producers, and some decomposers. Protists are mostly unicellular(microscopic), and protists are the leftover group.
What is the difference between a producer/autotroph, consumer/heterotroph, and a decomposer.
The difference between a producer/autotroph, consumer/heterotroph, and a decomposer is that producers make their own food (plant, algae, Bacteria), consumers do not make their own food (you, any animal), and a decomposer breaks down dead materials to return nutrients to soil for plants (fungi, some bacteria).
