26
Q

two types of biological structures

A

acellular and cellular structures

27
Q

define acellular structure

A

group of cells that cannot perform all biological processes because they lack living cell characteristics

28
Q

classes of cellular structure

A

prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells

29
Q

define cellular structures

A

a group of cells that Can preform all biological processes

30
Q

the nuclear membrane are in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells respectively

A

prokaryotic lack nuclear membrane while eukaryotic have nuclear membrane surrounding the nucleus and separates it from other component

31
Q

describe the organelles in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells respectively

A

prokaryotes lack organelles such mitochondria
while the eukaryotic cells contain organelles that are suspended in the cytoplasm

32
Q

examples on prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells respectively

A

prokaryotic: bacteria green blue algae
while eukaryotic amoeba paramecium plant and animal tissue

33
Q

characteristics of eukaryotic cells

A

has nuclear membrane’ has organelles in the cytoplasm (like chloroplasts cilia flagella vacuoles lipids protein etc)

34
Q

examples of eukaryotic cells

A

chlamydomonas, spirogyra, amoeba, paramecium

35
Q

multicellular eukaryotic cells examples

A

animals and plants tissues

36
Q

animal tissues examples

A

skeletal muscle smooth muscles and cardiac muscles

37
Q

ex of bacteria

A

coccus , rod , spirals , and fliament

38
Q

define organisation

A

a biological system has been with a a specific scope snd organisational principle that

39
Q

what are the principle levels of biological organisation

A

atom, molecules, cells, tissues organs, system , organism

40
Q

how many atoms are essential to the living organisms

A

only 25

41
Q

types of molecules

A

organic and inorganic

42
Q

examples of organic and inorganic molecules respectively

A

organic include carbohydrates, protein, lipids and nuclei acid( dna /rna)
inorganic include: water, mineral salt, acids, and basis

43
Q

carbohydrate types

A

monosaccharide, disaccharide, oligosaccharides , polysaccharide

44

A

during photosynthesis

45

A

biurt solution

49
Q

whom did discover nucleic acid

A

was first discovered by fredrich miescher in 1871

50
Q

protein functions

A

help cell communicate, maintain their shape , carry out changes triggers by chemical messengers, transport and share materials

51
Q

main functions of lipids

A

to store energy , enzymes activation, molecular transportation, and metabolism

52
Q

nucleic acid function

A

store and transmit genetics information
the nucleic acid use those information to synthesis new portions

each nucleotide contains

A

1-pentode sugar (either ribose (RNA)or deoxyribose) (DNA))
2-phosphate group
3-nitrogen base (purine (A,G) and pyrimidines ( T,C,U)

how many bases to make genetic code

A

three

60
Q

rna is

A

single stranded

61
Q

rna is made by what

A

copying a single strand of dna

62
Q

what does rna use in base pairs

A

use Uracil instead of thymine to bond with adenine

63
Q

sugar is connected by what
