1 kilogram equals?

1000 grams


You measure mass with what instrument?

Triple beam balance

What is tare weight?

weight of empty container

Indirect measure

weight of container and substance minus weight of container gives you weight of substance.

Measuring displacement

Putting an object into water and weighing the difference

Water freezes at what?

32 centigrade 0 degrees celcius

Water boils at?

212f and 100 degrees centergrade

water melts?

0 degrees F and 0 degrees C

Brownian movenment

random motion of molecules

Prokaryotes

1-10 microns, no photosynthesis, belongs archaebacteria, no membrane bound organelles, chloryphyll,cell wall, makes own food.

Eukaryotes

1-100 microns, photosynthesis, animalia, fungai, plantae.

gleocaspa

a genius cyanobacteria belongs to the kingdom bacteria

whats the purpose of cytoplasmic streaming in elodea?

mechanism for transporting nutrients

what structures do you see in elodea that indicate that they are plant cells?

Chloroplast, cytoplasm, cell wall

Difference between animal and plant cells

Plant- chloroplast, cytoplasm, cell wall


animal only have one membrane and cant produce their own food.

what are the advantages of studying a live specimens

studying patterns and behavior, reproduction, growth, hunting patterns, sleeping patterns, awareness of surrounding, motion, locomotion, protection, metamorphosis and economic relations.

ameoba

Pseudopod, vesicle,

Paramecium

methylcellulose will slow paramecium down. transports food through cilla

resolution

distinguish two points as being the same when you reach the point where you can't tell which is different.

Contrast

deals with the light intensity



Contrast

biological stains help improve contrast

Condenser lens

focus the light beam. Thin or thick.

Objectives

low- 4x


med- 10x


high-40x

Parfocal

focus remains when you change magnifications. always start at a low magnification

Parcentric

when you change objectives the object is still centered.

Field of view

.2mm low mag


.1mm high mag


if you increase magnification the field of view becomes smaller



Depth of field

height of object on the slide.


depth of field decrease with magnification

Brightness

goes down as magnification goes up

Dehydration Synthesis

how you build a polymer

Hydrolisis

how you break down a polymer

Polysaccarides

straight chain, starch, glycogen , cellulose

Iodine

tested for starch with iodine. If positive it turned brown, blue, black.

Protein

polymers of 20 amino acids


made of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen

prokaryotes and eukaryotes both have what?

cell membrane and cytoplasm

cyanobacteria( called blue green algae)

photosynthetic


have chlorophyll attached to plasma membrane

Oscillatora

rod shaped

bacillus

rod shaped

streptococcus

intertwined circles

-Cocus

sphere, circular shaped

spirillun

spiral shaped

Chloroplasts

site of photosynthesis, has chlorophyll, DNA and ribosomes

amyloplast

storage of starch

chromoplast

storage of pigments

Central vacuole

storage of water,enzymes, toxins, some pigments

Plastids

a family of plant organelles

ameba and paramecium

single celled have nucleus and lives in water

ameba

psuedopodia and vesicle, ameba produces and enzyme into the big vesicle and destroy.


white blood cells also move like ameba

Brownian motion

random motion of molecules. Every molecule has motion. caused by heat. is a passive process ( means no work was involved)

Diffusion

the passive, directional movement of molecules through a solution and across a semi-permeable membrane. High to low

gradients

temperature, pressure, concentrations of ions

concentration gradients

always for from high to low its a passive process

Active transport

you have to reverse low to high concentration. pushing really working to do this

Membrane bilayer

defines the inside and the outside environment.

Homeostasis

all cell maintain certain temp

steepness of gradient

the higher concentration gradient the steeper the gradient the greater diffusion is. The lower, the slower the reaction of diffusion

Polarity of molecule


large- pass with difficulty or not at all


size- non polar pass easily


solubility- the higher the solubility the faster the gradient.

osmosis

diffusion of water across a differently permeable membrane

fluid mosaic model

retard the diffusion of molecules


has receptor proteins that can pick up molecules


can be passive or active while transporting


materials


organize life process


maintains integrity


regulates cell functions
