Prokaryotic Cells
This structure in prokaryotic cells is responsible for controlling what enters and exits the cell.
What is the cell membrane?
This organelle is known as the "powerhouse" of the eukaryotic cell because it produces ATP.
What are mitochondria?
A virus consists of these two main components: a protein coat and either of these genetic materials.
What is DNA or RNA?
E. coli, Ebola, COVID-19, are all examples of what?
What are viruses?
What is the most accurate piece of evidence of evolution?
What is DNA (genetic evidence)?
Prokaryotic cells lack this membrane-bound structure found in eukaryotic cells.
What is the nucleus?
Eukaryotic cells have this structure that contains the cell's genetic material and controls cellular activities.
What is the nucleus?
These viruses specifically infect and replicate within bacterial cells.
What are bacteriophages?
Unlike cells, this outer layer found in viruses protects their genetic material but lacks the ability to perform cellular functions.
What is a protein coat (capsid)?
What are the 2 structures of the plant that controls the rate of gas exchange?
Hint: they're on the underside of the leaf!
What are the guard cells and the stomata?
This tail-like structure in some prokaryotic cells helps them move toward or away from stimuli.
What is a flagellum?
This structure in plant cells captures light energy and uses it to make food through photosynthesis.
What are chloroplasts?
True or False: Viruses are structures that are living and can reproduce on their own.
What is False?
Cells reproduce on their own through processes like mitosis, while viruses need this in order to make copies of themselves.
What is a host cell?
List out the molecules that make up the biomolecules in our diet.
What are Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Sulfur?
Prokaryotic cells contain a single circular molecule of this genetic material.
What is DNA?
The asexual reproduction process by which eukaryotic cells divide their nucleus and cytoplasm into two daughter cells in called this.
What is mitosis?
The Lytic cycle lasts for how long?
What is 24 hours to 14 days?
List the ways that viruses, prokaryotic cells, and eukaryotic cells can reproduce.
What is:
prokaryotic cells-asexually through binary fission
eukaryotic cells-asexually through mitosis and sexually through meiosis
viruses-with the help of a host cell through the lytic or lysogenic cycle
What are the 5 types of symbiotic relationships?
What is parasitism, commensalism, competition, predation, and mutualism?
This is a structure that both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells have in common that is responsible for making proteins.
What is a ribosome?
What is the difference between the rough endoplasmic reticulum and the smooth endoplasmic reticulum? Explain the functions and appearance of these organelles for your answer.
What is the SER is responsible for lipid assembly (which explains why it has a smooth surface) and the RER is responsible for protein assembly (which explains why it's surface is rough because of the proteins it's assembling)?
Explain the difference between the Lytic and Lysogenic cycles.
What is
Lytic cycle: 24 hours-14 days, virus infects the host cell with virus DNA and creates more viruses that burst out of the cell and kills the cell
Lysogenic cycle: lasts for over 6 months, the virus infects the host cell with virus DNA and duplicates the infected DNA to make more infected cells
List the following:
-2 things that prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells have in common
-2 thing that only eukaryotic cells have
-1 thing prokaryotic cells, eukaryotic cells, and viruses have in common
Both pro and euk-DNA, ribosomes, cytoplasm, cell membrane, etc
1 eukaryotic thing-Nucleus, DNA, RER, SER, Lysosomes, Golgi app., etc
1 all 3 have- DNA
What are the 5 evidences of evolution?
What is genetic evidence, embryology, comparative anatomy, fossil evidence, and biogeography?
