In order for life to arise, there must be the formation of ____________ molecules
|
organic
ie. amino acids, lipids, carbohydrates...etc |
|
What is one theory of organic molecule formation?
|
Lightning, volcanoes, meteorites provided energy to form organic molecules from NH3
producing amino acids |
|
What is required to form genetic material?
What is a theory of genetic material formation? |
Genetic material requires: enzymes, proteins, and nucleic acids
RNA is versatile: *acted as an enzyme + produced proteins + carried genetic material to provide a template for DNA nucleotides to evolve from |
|
Organisms may be categorized by
___________and___________ |
nutrition and reproduction types
|
|
obtain carbon from C02 (themselves)
|
Autotrophs
|
|
Heterotrophs
|
obtain carbon from other organisms (organic molecules)
|
|
Phototrophs
|
obtain energy from light (PHOTOsynthesis)
|
|
obtain energy from Chemicals
|
CHEMotrophs
|
|
Photoautotrophs
|
obtain energy from light and carbon from C02
|
|
obtain carbon from organic molecules/other organisms and energy from light
|
Photoheterotrophs
|
|
obtain energy from chemicals and carbon from self
|
Chemoautotrophs
|
|
sexual reproduction
|
gametes fuse thru fertilization to form zygote
|
|
asexual reproduction
|
no fusion of gametes
|
|
The universal ancestor of all living things:
|
Prokaryotes (include Bacteria and Archaea)
|
|
Example of a Cyanobacteria (blue green algae)
______________ structure nutrition classification function |
Anabaena
long filament of bacteria cells Photoautotroph Photosynthesis occurs in cytosol Cytosol contains thylakoids and photosystems |
|
Which domain is composed of mostly chemoheterotrophs?
|
Bacteria
|
|
cocci bacteria
|
spherical shaped bacteria cell
|
|
bacilli bacteria
|
rod (or BAsilisk) shaped bacteria cell
|
|
spirilli bacteria
|
spiral shaped bacteria cell
|
|
How do bacteria reproduce?
|
Binary fission
|
|
Conjugation
|
two cells conjugate (cell membranes connect) their cytoplasm with each other and allows one to donate and copy plasmid DNA
|
|
Which domains have a nuclear envelope?
|
Eukarya
|
|
Which domains have membrane bound organelles
|
Eukarya
|
|
which domains have a cell wall of peptidoglycon
|
Bacteria
|
|
Which domains have circular strands of DNA
|
Bacteria and Archaea
|
|
which domains can survive at temperatures >100C
|
Archaea
|
|
Endosymbiont theory (rise of organelles of Eukaryotes)
|
Eukaryotes arose from small prokaryotes that were photoautotrophs (cyanobacteria) or aerobic heterotrophs (bacteria) and were engulphed or parasitic to a prokaryote
These engulphed prokaryotes eventually became the Chloroplasts and Mitochondria of Eukaryotic cells |
|
Eukaryotic evolution of membrane bound organelles?
|
Mutation caused infolding of plasma membrane to create a membrane bound nucleus (the nuclear envelope) and endoplasmic reticulum
|
|
Euglena
nutrition type structure unique system? function |
photoautotroph & chemoheterotroph
contains chloroplasts and can engulph organisms through oral groove has a contractile vacuole that allows cell to live in hypotonic environment by continuously pumping water out of the cell |
