Bacteriology |
The study of bacteria |
|
Mycology |
The study of fungi including medical and agracultural |
|
Prokaryotes |
Single cell organism that has DNA that is no enclosed in a nucleus is usually circular not associated with his to histones they lack membrane enclosed organelles there cell walls always have a polysaccharide peptidoglycen divide using binary fission |
|
Eukarotes |
DNA is found in a nucleus which is separated from the cytoplasm by a nuclear membrane the DNA has many chromosomes they have a number of membrane enclosed organelles their cell walls are simple |
|
Plasma membrane |
Simular in both prokaryotes and eukarotes cells in both function and basic structure these have different proteins found in the membrane substances cross either by osmosis diffusion or active transport |
|
Endocytosis |
When a segment of the cytoplasm encloses a particle or large molocule encloses it then brings it in |
|
Receptor mediated endocytosis |
When a substance binds to a receptor on the cell membrane causing the membrane to fold inward this is how some viruses enter the cell |
|
Phagocytosis |
A cellular projection called pseudopods engulf particles and bring them into the cell phagocytosis is how white blood cells bring in bacteria to kill them |
|
Lysosomes |
Formed in gogli complexes and look like membrane enclosed spheres and lack internal structure they contain over 40 powerful digestive enzymes capable of breaking down various molocules including bacteria white blood cells carry lots of lisosomes |
|
Phagolysosome |
A digestive vacuole |
|
Phagosome |
A good vacuole |
|
Ribosome |
Found in cytoplasm and and endoplasm reticulum ribosomes are the site of some protein synthesis. |
|
Eukaryotic ribosome |
Eukarotes have ribosomes in 60 subunits and 40 subunits |
|
Bacterial Ribosomes |
Bacterial have ribosomes in 50 subunits and 30 subunits |
|
Transcription |
Turning DNA into mRNA by the ribosome |
|
Translation |
The act of ribosomes turning mRNA into protein |
|
Mitochondria |
Contains a double membrane located in the cytoplasm outer layer is smooth the inner membrane is folded and called crista (cristae) with a semi fluid center called the matrix the proteins that create ATP are located in the cristae |
|
Cellular respiration |
The process of creating ATP using a set or reactions and processes breaking down large molocules into small ones |
