Proteins! Proteins! Proteins!
Where are proteins made?
Ribosomes
Chloroplast
What is the liquid inside all cells where chemical reactions occur?
Cytoplasm
Name 1 structure found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.
Ribosomes, cell membrane, cytoplasm, cell wall (sometimes)
Name the monomer for proteins.
Amino acid
This larger structure is covered in smaller structures and like a factory for proteins.
Rough ER
What is big in plant cells and stores sap?
Vacuole
What is made from cellulose and provides structure and support for plant cells?
Cell wall
What are 2 examples of eukaryotes?
Fungi, animals, plants
Fat cells are full of lipids. What is the function of all these lipids?
Long-term energy storage
What do you call a section of DNA which codes for an individual protein?
Gene
In what type of cells would you find chloroplasts?
Plant cells
What is the cell membrane made of?
Phospholipids
Also proteins, cholesterol (lipids)
What organelle would a muscle cell have a lot of?
Mitochondria
Glucose is an example of a monomer of carbohydrates, but what is the overall term to describe these monomers?
Monosaccharides
This is the Amazon Prime of the cell: gets those proteins out of there.
Golgi Apparatus
What is a small structure that stores things such as food, water, or waste?
Vacuole
In which category of macromolecules is cellulose?
Carbohydrate
1. Cells are the basic unit of life.
2. All living things are made from cells.
3. Cells come from other living cells.
What is the difference between polypeptides and a full protein?
Proteins are folded, polypeptides are just a chain of amino acids.
What is the difference between the nucleus and nucleolus?
Nucleus contains DNA and has the instructions for proteins.
Nucleolus produces ribosomes.
These are the recycling centres of the cell: breaks down old organelles and food so that they can be reused.
Lysosomes
What is the difference between the cell wall and cell membrane?
Cell wall is for support.
Cell membrane is controls what goes in and out of cells - it is in all cells.
FUN FACT: What is the largest single cell? it is 15-18 cm long.
Ostrich egg
What elements are in proteins?
CHON
