cell
|
smallest unit of living matter
structural and functional unit of an organism |
|
cell theory
|
all cells come from pre-existing cells
|
|
refraction
|
light rays bent
|
|
reflection
|
light rays bounce off
|
|
nucleus
|
the center of the cell that contains the DNA/the genetic material
also the constant communication with cytoplasm |
|
structure of bacteria
|
bacillus rodshaped
coccus sphere shaped spirillum spiral shaped |
|
cell envelope
|
cell wall
cell membrane glycocalyx polysaccharides |
|
cell wall
|
maintains the shape of the cell
|
|
cytoplasm
|
semi fluid solution encased by the plasma membrane
|
|
bacteria
|
its good because it brakes things down and its bad because it causes sickness and it does not have a nucleus
|
|
cells reproduce
|
unicellular splits into two and multicellular splits and the object gets bigger and bigger
|
|
why are cells small?
|
if you have one big cell it takes longer because there is less surface area.
if you have a small cell it takes shorter because there is more surface area |
|
cells
|
prokaryotic cells-lack a membrane around nucleus
simpler and smaller eukaryotic cells- has a nucleus |
|
Atom
|
smallest unit of a molecule
|
|
molecule
|
smallest until of a compound that still had the properties of the compound
|
|
cell
|
smallest until of a living thing
|
|
tissue
|
A group of cells with a common structure and function
|
|
organ
|
composed of a # of tissues and organized for a particular task
|
|
organism
|
an individual; complex individuals contain organ system
|
|
popualtion
|
several organism of the same kind in a particular area
|
|
community
|
interacting populations in a particular area
|
|
Ecosystem
|
a community plus the environment
|
|
biosphere
|
Regions of the earth's crust, water, and atmosphere inhabited by living things
|
|
type of cells
|
~Eukaryotes
- has nucleus - has organelles - specialized - came from prokaryotes - membranes surrounded organelles |
|
Prokaryotes
|
- simple
- lack nucleus - include bacteria and blue-green algae - first type of cell - contains cytoplasm - cell membrane - no organelles or organelle membrane |
|
Cell size
|
- surface area/volume ratio becomes to small to handle traffic
- cue for cell division - calculations - area of cube =lenght * height * 6 - volume = b*h+w=cm3 |
|
membrane
|
- structure of lipid bilayer
- phospholipid - polar ends nonploar middle |
|
protein function
|
channel
markers receptors |
|
Cell structure organelles
|
nucleus

|
Plant VS. Animal
|
plant =
cell wall -large vacuoles - chloroplasts |
|
Plant VS. Animal
|
Animal =
micro tubules more mitocondria |
