3. Helminths

Question 2

What are the main differences of the flagella of eurkaryotic cells?

Answer 2

• Covered by cell membrane (thicker)
• a 9+2 microtubule arrangement
• move in a whiplash manner

Question 3

What are cilia?

Answer 3

External structure, used for motility, found only in Protozoa and animal cells

Question 4

Answer 5

Make direct contact with the outside environment.

Question 6

What is the purpose of the glycocalyx of eukaryotic cells?

Answer 6

Protection and adherence

What type of eukaryotic cells have a cell wall?

Answer 7

Only Fungi and Algae

Question 8

How are the layers of the cell walls of eukaryotic cells composed?

Answer 8

Thick inner layer (made of chitin or cellulose)

and

thin outer layer (mixed glycans)

Question 9

How is the nucleus of eukaryotic cells composed?

Answer 9

Surrounded by nuclear envelope with holes call nuclear pores for transportation into nucleus.

Question 10

What structure is found within the nucleus?

What is its purpose?

Answer 10

Nucleolus

• site of rRNA ribosome synthesis
• houses chromosomes

Question 11

What is the endoplasmic reticulum (purpose) of eukaryotic cells?

Answer 11

Tunnel network used for transportation and storage.

Question 12

Where is the rough ER of eukaryotic cells located?

Answer 12

Starts at nuclear envelope

ends at cell membrane

Question 13

What is the purpose of the rough ER?

Answer 13

Transports material/ ribosomes (rough) from nucleus to cytoplasm to cell exterior.

Question 14

What is the smooth ER and what is ts purpose.

Answer 14

Closed tubular network used for processing nutrients and synthesizing lipids.

Question 15

What is the golgi complex (purpose) of eukarotic cells?

Answer 15

Non continuous organelle, where proteins are modified and transported

Question 16

Answer 19

Condensing Vesicle

Question 20

What are lysosomes and where are they made?

3. Protection from invading microorganisms

Question 23

What are vacuoles (purpose)?

Answer 23

Membrane bound sacs used for

1. Digestion
2. Storage of fats and glycogen
3. Excretion (protozoa expel water)

Question 24

How do vacuoles become suited for digestion?

Answer 24

Fuse with lysosome to become phagosome.

Question 25

What are the jobs of mitochondria?

Answer 25

Answer 26

Divide independently from cell.

Have circular DNA

Have different sized ribosomes (similar to bacteria)

Question 27
