- it is the “command center”
eukaryotic nucleus
it has a three components; nucleoplasm, chromosomes and a nuclear membrane
eukaryotic
eukaryotic chromosomes consist of
linear DNA molecules and proteins
genes are located along chromosomes. An organism complete collection of genes is referred to as _____
genotype or genome
although most genes code for proteins, some code or two types of ribonucleic acid (RNA) wat are the two
ribosomal ribonucleic acid (rRna) & transfer ribonucleic acid (tRna)
human diploid cells have ____ and consist of between 20k to 25k genes
46 chromosomes (23 pairs)
- a semifluid, gelatinous, nutrient matrix
- it contains storage granules and organelles
-each organelles have its specific function - this is where metabolic reactions occur
cytoplasm
- a highly convoluted system of membranes arranged to form a transport network in the cytoplasm
- rough er ribosome attached to it, smooth er does not
endoplasmic reticulum (ER)
- this is where the sites of proteins synthesis
- consist of ribosomal RNA and proteins
ribosomes
- this connects or communicates with ER
- also called golgi apparatus or golgi body
- it completes the transformation of newly synthesized proteins and packages them for storage or export (packaging plants)
golgi complex
- it contains lysozyme and other digestive enzymes
- originate in Golgi complex
- peroxisomes are membrane-bound vesicles where H202 is generated and broken down
lysosomes and peroxisomes
bacteria and archaea
kingdom of prokaryotae
algae and protozoa
kingdom protista
fungi
kingdom fungi
plants
kingdom plantae
animals
kingdom animalia
viruses are not included because they are _____ so other systems of classification do exist
acellular
the three domain system of classification.
- the three domain is based on differences in the structure of certain ribosomal RNA (rrna) molecules among organisms in the thre domains
- archaea (prokar)
- bacteria (prokar)
- eucarya (eukaryotic organisms)
- ATP molecules produced within ____ by cellular respiration
- number of _____ varies depending on the activtes of the cells
- called as “energy factories or powerhouses”
mitochondria
- membrane bound structures containing photosynthetic pigments
- they are sites of photsynthesis
- chloroplasts are type of it; they contain chlorophyll
plastids
- a system pf fibers throughout the cytoplasm
- three types of fibers (MICROTUBULES, MICROFILAMENTS, INTERMEDIATE FILAMENTS)
- microtubules and microfilaments are essential for a variety of activities
cytoskeleton
- an external structure to provide shape, protection and rigidity)
