|
Define matter and tell how it relates atoms and compounds. |
All living things are made up of cells. Matter is anything that mass and takes up space. Matter is made up of atoms that can combine to into compounds. |
|
|
Explain where the properties of a substance come from. |
All atoms of an element have the same number of protons within the atomic nucleus. Elements are substances that are made up of one type of atom.; they cannot be reduced into reduced into smaller units by ordinary chemical means. |
|
|
Identify that cells are made of matter. |
When the atoms of different elements bond to form compounds. Most substances in nature are all compounds. All molecules of a specific compound have the same composition and the same properties Like all types of matter, cells are made up of atoms and molecules. Cells are the basic building blocks of living things. The compounds in cells play critical roles in life processes. |
|
|
Describe the parts common to all cells. |
Cell Membrane Cytoplasm Organelles DNA |
|
|
Cell Membrane |
Surrounds the cellIs a protective barrier that controls what can go in and out of the cell Separates the cell from the rest of the environment |
|
|
Which of these have a cell wall? Which do not? Plant cells, bacteria, archaea, animal cells |
Plant cells, bacteria, archaea have cell wall Animal cells do not have a cell wall |
|
|
Cytoplasm |
Liquid inside the cell Organelles and some proteins are suspended inside the cytoplasm Helps maintain shape of the cell |
|
|
Organelles |
Cells can have one or more types of organelles Bodily organs: Human :: Organelles: Cells Mitochrondria Chloroplasts Ribosomes |
|
|
What does Mitochondria do? |
Mitochrondria- releases energy from food molecules for food |
|
|
What do Ribosomes do? |
Ribosomes- make proteins |
|
|
What do chloroplasts do? |
(plants only) produce sugar and give plants green color |
|
|
DNA |
Deoxyribonucleic Acid Contains instructions for all cell processes Determines traits for each organism DNA is inherited |
|
|
DNA in Eukaryotic Cells vs. Prokaryotic Cells |
Eukaryotic Cells- found inside the nucleus Prokaryotic Cells- forms a large loop in the cytoplasm |
|
|
What is the difference in Prokaryotic Cells and Eukaryotic Cells? |
Prokaryotic - usually much smaller (.5um -2um). Contain cell membrane. Organelles are not enclosed in the cell membrane. Genetic material forms a loop within the cell. Unicellular. Ex: bacteria, prokaryotes Eularyotic- larger than Prokaryotic cells ( 5-100um). Genetic material held in the nucleus. Organelles surrounded by cell membrane. |
|
|
Outline the main parts of the Cell Theory. |
All living things are composed of cells. All cells come from existing cells The cell is the smallest functioning unit of life. Cells contain hereditary information that is passed down. Cells all have essentially the same chemical makeup. Cells are the site of all chemical processes that maintain life. The way cells take in energy varies, but energy is stored in chemical bonds and released when the bonds are broken |
|
|
Who coined the term cells? |
Hooke |
|
|
Identify cellular life functions. [animals, plants, protists] |
All cells need to take in energy from their environments to maintain life processes. Animals- consume (take in) food that can later be used as energy. Plants- absorb radiant energy (sunlight) or other chemicals for energy. Protists (and other unicellular organisms- “swallow” their food- phagocytosis |
|
|
Identify the four main organic compounds found in cells and tell their functions. |
proteins, carbohydrates, nucleic acids, and lipids For cells, large molecules serve as sources of matter as well as energy. |
|
|
Provide examples of organic compounds found in cells. |
Proteins- eggs, fish, meat, nuts, and legumes Carbohydrates- sugar, starches, fiber Lipids- fats, oils, waxes, and phospholipids Nucleic Acids- RNA, DNA |
