Endosymbiotic theory
-Eukaryotic cell resulted from one prokaryotic cell engulfing another prokaryotic cell
Evidence
Some eukaryotic organelles resemble prokaryotic cells
-Mitochondria & chloroplasts are rod-shaped, measured in UMS, have 70s Ribosomes, HAVE OWN DNA that similar to prokaryotic DNA
Eukaryotic>Flagella
-composed of protein TUBULIN
-10x thicker than prokaryotic flagella
-function in motility
Eukaryotic>Cilia
similar overall structure flagella, But shorter and more numerous
-found only on a single group of ProTozoa* and certain animal cells
-function in motility, feeding, filtering.
Eukaryotic>Glycocalyx
Outermost boundary that comes into direct contact with environment
-composed of Polysaccharides
-network of fibers, either Slime layer or Capsule
Cell wall
-Rigid, provides structural support and shape
Eukaryotic> Fungi
-have thick inner layer of polysaccharide fibers composed of chitin
Eukaryotic> Algae
varies in chemical composition
-may be cellulose, pectin, mannans, silicon dioxide, and calcium carbonate
Eukaryotic> Animal
-no cell wall
Nucleus
Control center of Eukaryotic cell
-Envelope composed of two parallel membranes separated by a narrow space; perforated with pores.
Nucleolus
-Dark area for rRNA Synthesis and ribosome assembly.
Two types of Endoplasmic reticulum
-Rough Endoplasmic reticulum (RER)
-Smooth Endoplasmic reticulum (SER)
Rough Endoplasmic reticulum
-originates from outer membrane of nuclear envelope
-extends in continuous network through cytoplasm
-proteins synthesized on Ribosomes
-Shunted into ER for packaging and transport; first step in secretory pathway
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum
-closed tubular network WITHout Ribosomes
-Functions in nutrient processing, synthesis, and storage of LIPIDS
Golgi apparatus
-Modifies, stores, and PACKage proteins
-Secretes VESICLES
-Consists of stack of flattened sacs called Cisternae
Mitochondria
-function in energy production
-outer membrane and inner membrane with folds called CRISTAE
-cristae hold enzymes and electron carriers of aerobic respiration
-divide independently of cell
-contain DNA and 70s prokaryotic ribosomes
Chloroplast
-Convert energy of sunlight into chemical energy through photosynthesis
-found in Algae and plant cell
-
Ribosomes
80s, composed of rRNA and Proteins
-Scattered in cytoplasm, function in protein synthesis
Fungi
-Eukaryotic cells, single or multicellular, heterotrophic(look for own food)
-Mycology(study of fungi)
-facultative parasites
-Nutrition- send out exoenzymes to break down material, absorb digested material
cell wall - Chitin
membrane - ergosterol
Facultative parasites
-An organism that lives independent of a host but may occasionally be parasitic under certain conditions.
Dimorphism *
-ability to alter structure when changing environment
Fungi> Structure
Mycelium- mass of hyphae
Hyphae- Fungal filaments
Septate- separated by walls
Coenocytic- no walls
Sexual reproduction`
-spores are formed following fusion of two different strains and formation of a sexual structure
-zygospores, ascospores, and basidiospores
Sexual spores
-spore forming structures are used for identification AND are the usual basis for CLASSIFICATION
Asexual reproduction
-spores are formed through budding or mitosis
-two subtypes of asexual spores: conidia, sporangiospores
Asexual spores
-used for identification
Phylum Zygomycota*
- zygospores; mostly spoangiospores and some conidia
Phylum Ascomycota*
-ascospores; conidia
Phylum Basidiomycota*
-flagellated spores
Imperfect or Deuteromycota*
-Fungi that produce only Asexual spores
Adverse impact
-mycoses
-allergies
-toxin production
-destruction of crops and food storage
Mycoses
- fungal infection
Allergies
- fungal cell wall substance trigger reactions
Toxin poduction
- aflatoxin, ergot toxin; neuological effect
Beneficial impact
-decomposer of dead plant and animal
-form association with plant root
-aid in digestion in guts of herbivores
-source of antibiotics, alcohol, organic acids, vitamins
-use in making food,
-used in genetic studies
Protists
-Eukaryotic cells, unicellular, mostly microscopic; some macroscopic, mostly aquatic.
Algae
-microscopic are unicellular, colonial, filamentous
-macroscopic are colonial and multicellular
-Mos are FREE Living in fresh and marine water- PLAnkton
Gelidium
-marine red algae used to make agar
Alexandrium
-dinoflagellate
-produces saxitoxin
-causes PSP-paralytic shellfish poisoning
Gambierdiscus
-dinoflagellate
-produces CIGUA Toxin in fish like grouper and red snapper
-cuases disease Ciguatera
-toxin NOT Inactivated by cooking.
Yeast
-Soft, uniform texture and appearance
Budding
-Reproduce through asexual process
Mycelium
- mass of hyphae
Coenocytic
- no walls
Septate
- separated by walls
Phylum Chyridomycota
-flagellated spores
