Comparisons
What are the two main categories we divide ALL cells into?
Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes
This kingdom is autotrophic
Plante
Which process has more steps--Mitosis or Meiosis?
Meiosis--we do TWO cell divisions!
Which organelles are related to proteins?
Ribosomes, Golgi, ER
What is the main difference between sexual and a sexual reproduction?
Which process, mitosis or meiosis, is related to each?
sexual reproduction creates unique offspring (MEIOSIS) and asexual reproduction creates identical offspring (MITOSIS)
What are three things you would find in EVERY cell
cell membrane
cytoplasm
genetic material
ribosomes
This kingdom contains organisms that are crucial to recycling nutrients in the carbon and nitrogen cycle--they often break down dead things
Eubacteria OR Fungi
BOTH have decomposers
Why must DNA replicate before Mitosis?
so that the daughter cells all have the right number of chromosomes--if we don't replicate then the daughter cells could create genetic disorders.
Which organelles are related to support and structure of the cell?
cell membrane (and cell wall if a plant cell)
What colleges did Ms. Lee, Mr. Fleming, and Ms. Kelly go to???
Ms. Lee--Holy Cross
Mr. Fleming--University of Arizona
Ms. Kelly--Georgetown University
What are three differences between plant and animal cells
shape (plant cells are rectangles and animals are more round)
Plant cells ONLY have cell wall and chloroplast
Plant cells are autotrophic and animal cells are heterotrophic
Animal cells ONLY have centrioles
You might find organisms belonging to this kingdom in deep sea vents where there are extremely hot temperatures
archaebacteria
the hint was extreme--they live in extreme environments
What is one similarity between mitosis and meiosis?
both do cytokensis
both do DNA replication ONCE
both to PMAT at least once
If an individual had a build up of waste in their lung cells this can lead to phenomena. What organelle is NOT working if this is happening?
Lysosomes
8 Maids a Milking
How is a virus different from normal cells?
it ONLY is made of a protein coat and DNA
it cannot reproduce on its own, so it MUST be inside a host cell to survive
List all the classification levels!

A somatic cell for a elephant has 56 chromosomes.
How many chromosomes would there be in an egg cell for an elephant?
How many chromosomes would there be in a skin cell for an elephant?
Egg=28
Skin= 56
What organelle do both plant and animal cells have to create energy?
MITOCHONDRIA
What process must occur to create a zygote?
You need the vocab word AND to describe the process
Fertilization--the DNA of a sperm cell and egg cell combine, fuse, mix.
