Produces lipids

Lysosome

Bound by single membrane, formed by golgi


Contains enzymes


Only found in animal cells

Vacuole

Fluid filled sacs that act as storage


Gives plants cells support


Plants cell have large vacuole

Centrioles

9 bundles of 2 microtubes


Cell division


Only in animal cells

Plastids

Chemical factories or storehouse for food or pigment

Cell wall

Protects + supports the cell


Primary cell wall made of cellulose

Cell theory

All living organism are composed of cells. Unicellular or multicellular


Cells basic unit of life


Cells come from pre existing cells

Modern cell theory

Energy flow occurs within cells


DNA is passed from cell to cell


All cells have same basic chemical composition

Taxonomy

Naming, identifying, classifying species

8 main taxa

Domain: cells with membrane bound nucleus and organelles


Kingdom


Phylum: backbone+spine


Class


Order


Family


Genus


Species

6 kingdoms

Animalia


Plantae


Fungi


Protista


Monera (split) new bacteria + arcea bacteria

3 major domains

Eukaryota: multi cellular


Animals, plants, fungi


Bacteria: Diseases


Cyanbacteria

Device used to identify an unknown organism


Consists of 2 part statement that describes organisms

What defines a living thing?

Movement+ growth


Sensing + responding


Energy use


Excretion


Gas exchange


Maintain homeostasis


Made of cells

Homeostasis

Steady


To maintain fairly stable conditions for survival

Properties if viruses

Not living


No cellular structures


Don't retire or exchange games


Don't carry out metabolic activity


Do consist of protein coat=capsid


Are mobile


Contain DNA


Reproduce

2 types of viral reproduction

Start of each


Phage attaches to host and injects DNA


DNA cirularizes


Lytic cycle


New phage DNA+ proteins synthesize and assemble into virons


Cell lyse breaks releasing phage virons


Lysogenic cycle


Phage DNA integrates withing the bacterial chromosome by recombination becoming a prophage Reproduces


becoming a prophage


Reproduces



Bacteria

Are prokaryotes living thing without a nucleus with a single strand of DNA


Single celled


Reproduces asexually + sexually


Live in moist enviroments

Kingdom eubacteria
