TermDefinition
Distinguish between living, and dead objects/organismsLiving things give off carbon dioxide and other things dont
3 domains of lifeArchea, Plantea, Eukarya
five kingdoms of lifePlants, animals, protists, fungi, monera
VirusesNo because viruses were not living they thought until recently when they found one that does live on its own.
taxanomyclassifies all the viruses and stuff into catagories
Characteristics of lifemovement, escrete scat, requires energy, grow/adapt, reproduce, metabolism, made up of cells, water, organic molecules
Cell theoryAll living things are made up of cells and all cells come from another cell
Cellular respiramentCreates ATP which is used for work by digesting fuel and oxygen
Non living vs livingLiving gives off carbon dioxide and phenol red
Scientific methodobservation, question, hypothesis, prediction, test expirament
HypothesisA guess that is made before the expirament has taken place
TheoryIt is tested over and over and when it has had the same results repeadiusly then it is called a theory
VariableSomething in an expirament that can change
Kilok: 10^3
meter10^0
Centic: 10^-2
Millim: 10^-3
microu: 10^-6
Nanon: 10^-9
um in 20 cm.0020
microscope
objective lens, arm, stage, diaphram, ocular lens, light sourc, base, course adjustment nob, fine adjustment knob
prokaryoticevolved first, kingdom of monera, small organelles, only nucleod region, have no membrane boud oganelles
Eukaryoticevoled later, Kingdom of life,
MitochondrionThey provide energy and are the power for all cells
NucleusIt is enclosed in a double membrane and it contains the DNA
nucleolusIt sends out ribosomes to the rough ER
cytosolCellular metabolism occurs here
centrosomecell microtubles are produced
centrioleEach has groups of nine and in that there are groups of 3
Golgi1 membrane with a stack of membrane vessicles
lysosomesnecessary for intracellular digestion, they also kill and digest the bactereia
peroxisomesContain oxidase enzymes that detoxify alcohol, hydrogen peroxide, and other harmful chemicals
secretory vessiclesthey aare packed at the golgi apparatus with protiens and then transported to the surface for release
cell membranethin, flexible barrier around a cell; regulates what enters and leaves the cell
vacuoleDigest and release cellular waste products
Cell wallprotects the cell and maintains the shape
ChloroplastPlant cell: Responsible for the green color
Smooth endoplasmic reticulumContinuation of the outer nuclear membrane
Rough ERcells collect here for transportation through the cell
Ribosomespackages of RNA, protein synthesis
cytoskeletonHelps maintain the shape of the cell and the muscle fiber contraction
