fish

22

23
Q

full human classification

A

kingdom: animals
phylum: chordata
class: mammal
order: primate
family: hominid
genus: homo
species: sapiens

24
Q

draw a diagram of a fungi

A

should include:
nucleus
cell wall
membrane
ER
ribosomes
mitochondria
golgi body
glycogen granule

25
fungi cell wall is make of
chitin
26
fungi reproduces
by spores
27
what does heterotrophic mean
obtains nutrients by consuming others
28
what is the glycogen granule
glycogen is a carbohydrate used for energy storage
29
what is the root system of a fungi
- mycelium - individual stands are called hyphae
30
facts about fungi
- cause diseases - some are poisonous - used for food (yeast, beer) - used in biotechnology
31
what are the two types of decomposers
detritivores: decomposers that ingest dead organic materials saprotrophs: decomposers that secrete digestive enzymes into organic matter and absorb the nutrients
32
difference between dicots and monocots
dicots: - 2 cotyledons - stems are organised vascular bundles - leaves are variegated (branched veins) - 4/5 petals multiples monocots: - 1 cotyledon - stems are random vascular bundles - leaves are parallel - multiples of three
33
the plant cell wall is make of
glycose
34
the prokaryote cell wall is made of
peptidoglycan
35
what are single celled organisms that have a nucleus
protoctista
36
draw a diagram of a paramecium cell
should include: nucleus constructive vacuole cytoplasm ribosomes pili/ fibrae
37
what does autotrophic mean
optain nutrients from yourself
38
draw a diagram of a euglena cell
should include: nucleus eyespot chloroplast flagellum
39
what does a eukaryote mean
does have a nucleus
40
what is a single celled organism that doesn't have a nucleus
prokaryotes/ bacteria
41
draw a diagram of a bacteria
should include: capsule or slime layer cell wall cell membrane chromosome/ DNA circular pili/ fibrae 70S ribosomes plasmid cytoplasm flagella
42
what does the capsule do
provides protection
43
what are plasmid
small circular fragments of DNA
44
what does the ribosome do
organelle that makes proteins
45
what do pili/ fibrae do
exchange plasmids to other bacteria and/ or allow bacteria to attach itself on surfaces
46
what does the flagella do
allows movement
47
describe characteristics of bacteria
- saprotrophs shapes : A) coccus (spherical) B) bacillus (rod-like) C) spirillus (spiral)
48
what do viruses have
- protein coat - DNA/ RNA - receptors
