TermDefinition
motile algaeonly contain all categories of eucaryotic organelles
flagella and cilialocomotive appendages of eukaryotic cells
flagellaexternal structures of of eukaryotic cells that are few and long in relation to cell size
ciliaexternal structures of of eukaryotic cells that are numerous and short, found only in protozoa and animal cells, also moves substances along the surface of cells andsome function as feeding and filtering structures
flagella and ciliaboth of theses structures consist of an arrangement of nine pairs and 2 single microtubules
microtubuleslong hollow tubes made of the protein tubulin
glycocalyxin both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells; most eukaryotic cells have this; its an outermost boundary that comes into direct contact w/ the environment
glycocalyxcontains a slime layer or a capsule layer, composed of polysaccharides and apperas as a network of fibers
glycocalyxcontributes to adherence of the cell to surfaces, protection, reception of signals from other cells and the environment
fungi and algaeThese cell walls are ridgid and provide structural support and shape
chitinIS THE MAIN MATERIAL OF FUNGAL CELL WALLS
phospholipid bilayerthe eukaryotic plasma membrane is a ?? just like a prokaryotic cell
1. passive process by prokaryotes 2. active transport 3. phago and pinocytosiseukaryotic cells can move materials across the plasma membrane 3 ways
organellesspecialized membrane enclosed structures in the cytoplasm
nucleusthe control center, most prominent organelle, directs the activities of the cell through a structural and chemical network
nuclear membrane or envelopeexternal boundary, double membrane seperated by a narrow space, perforated by nuclear pores
nuclear poressmall openings in the nuclear envelope, macromolecules migrate through these to the cytoplasm
nucleoplasmmatrix inside the nucleus, contains cromatin and nucleolus
nucleolussite of ribosomal RNA synthesis, a collection area for ribosome subunits, ribosomes produced here move thru nuclear pores to the cytoplasm
CHROMATIMlong linear DNA molecules bound to HISTONE proteins, condenses into chromosomes during mitosis
endoplasmic reticuluma passageway in the cell
rough endoplasmic reticulumoriginates from the outer membrane of the nuclear envelope, extends through the cytoplasm and out the cell membrane
ribosomesproteins in the rer are synthasized on the? and then chunted into the cavity of the rer for later packaging and transport
Smooth ERmakes nonprotein molecules, closed tubular network
Smooth ERfunctions in nutrient processing and synthasizing and storage of non protein macromolecules such as lipids and carbs
Rough ERprotein syntheses
golgi apparatusa packaging machine; proteins are modified by additon of polysaccharides and lipids, they are modified, stored and packaged for their final desitination here
transitional vesiclesER buds of membrane bound packets of protein that are picked up by the golgi apparatus
condensing vesiclesgolgi pinches off these vessicles that become lysosomes or transported outside the cell
lysosomesvesicles containing a variety of enzymes, intracellular digestion of food particles, provides protection against invading microbes,
vacuolesmembrane bound sacs containing fluid or solid particles to be digested, excreted and stored
mitochondriaenergy generator of the cell, divides independantly of the cell, have circular strans of DNA
cristaehold enzymes and electron carriers for aerobic respiration
chloroplastsphotosynthesis machines found in algae and plants, converts the energy of sunlight into chemical energy through photosynthesis, contain ribosomes and dna-multiple by binary fission
ribosomesprotein sythesizers, some scattered in cytoplasm some associated w/RER; composed of ribonucleoprotein
both cellswhch cells contain nucleic acids, proteins, lipid and carns
both cellswhich cells uschem reactions to metabolize food, build proteins and store energy?
prokaryotic cellsWhich cells DNA is not enclosed w/in a membrane and is one circular chromosome?
prokaryotic cellswhich cells DNA is not associated w/ histones but are associated w/ other proteins?
prokaryotic cellsWhich cells lack membrane enclosed organelles
prokaryotic cellswhich cells cell walls almost always contain the complex polysaccharide peptidoglycan
prokaryotic cellswhich cells divide by binary fission
binary fissioninvolves fewer structures and processes then eucaryotic cell division
eukaryotic cellswhich cells DNA is found in the cells nucleus and the DNA is in multiple chromosomes?
eukaryotic cellswhich cells DNA is associted with chromosomal proteins called histones
eukaryotic cellswhich cells have a number of membrance enclosed organelles?
eukaryotic cellswhich cells cell walls (when present) are chemically simple?
eukaryotic cellswhich cells divide my mitosis
yeastan example of an eukaryotic cell that divides not by mitosis but binary fission
intercellular symbiosisprocess in which eukaryotic cells evolved from prokaryotic cells
protoza, microscopic algae, fungi and animal paracitesthe certain eukaryotes studied by microbiologists
macroscopic fungione division of fungi that contain mushrooms and puff balls
microscopicone division of fungi that contains molds and yeasts
fungimolds and yeasts are a type of ?
hyphaeone morphological type of fungi that is long and threadlike cells that make up the bodies of filamentous fungi or molds
yeastsone morphological type of fungi that is a unicellular fungi, non filamentous and is round to oval shaped
hetetrophicfungal nutrition: all fungi are this ( they do not make thei own food)
mycelliuma mass of hyphae that make up the body or colony of a mold
septain most fungi the hyphae are divided in to segments called?
fungithese are classified to the type of sexual spore that they form, reproduction is primarily through spores formed on special reproductive hyphae
mycologythe study of fungi
mycosisany fungal infection
mycosesgenerally chronic fungal infections
protistgeneral group that traditionally includes single celled and colonial eucaryotic microbes that lack organization into tissues
protozaare protists that are unicellular, they lack a cell wall
endoplasm and ectoplasmprotozan cytoplasm is divided into?
trophozitevegitative form , feeding stage of protoza
mitosisprotoza reproduce via?
conjugationa form of genetic exchange in which members of 2 different mating types fuse temporarly and exchange neuclei
