Q

what is the lytic cycle?

A
  1. virus attaches to the cell
  2. DNA from the virus enters the cell
  3. The cell makes new viral DNA and proteins
  4. New viruses are assembled from the proteins and DNA
  5. The cell breaks open and the viruses are released

Q

What is the lysogenic cycle?

A

viral nucleic acid becomes part of the host cell’s chromosome and forms provirus that can be activated to enter lytic cycle

Q

Conjugation

A

sexual reproduction

  1. cells connect and transfer circular DNA (plasmids)
  2. bacteria with new genetic composition formed
    - creates variation

Q

3 helpful bacteria

A

Nitrogen fixing=makes nitrogen and that’s used by plants and then eaten by animals

Decomposers=recycle nutrients

Q

Killer Cells

A

identifies cells that are infected and eats them so they can’t spread the disease

24
Q

Protist

A

most unicellular, can be multi

lives in watery environment

25
3 types of protists
animal-like fungi-like plant-like
26
Animal-like protist
heterotroph | no cell wall
27
Fungi-like protist
heterotroph | cell wall
28
Plank-like protist
autotroph photosynthetic cell wall
29
Amoeba (FEEDING & MOVEMENT)
protist heterotroph Feeding-uses pseudopods (finger-like projections) to form food vacuoles Movement-form as cytoplasm flows in specific direction
30
Paramecium (FEEDING & MOVEMENT-paramecia)
protist heterotroph MUST EAT FOOD Feeding-uses cilia to funnel food into oral groove Movement-cilia moves protist through water
31
Euglena (FEEDING & MOVEMENT)
``` protist autotroph chloroplasts eye spot to detect light Movement-uses flagella for movement ```
32
What 2 reproductions can protists do?
binary fission & conjugation
33
Algae
protist autotroph does most photosynthesis
34
Fungi
kingdom heterotroph cell wall- chitin does decomposition
35
Rhizoids
fungi 1. grow down into food source 2. secretes enzymes that digest food 3. absorbs nutrients to feed fungus
36
Reproductive hyphae
1. grow up and form sporangia (spore cases) | 2. spores burst out of case and land on other food sources
37
Animalia
kingdom multicellular no cell walls heterotroph
38
Plantae
``` kingdom eukaryotic producer autotroph photosynthetic cell wall-cellulose larger than animal cells ```
39
Photosynthesis formula
CO2 + H20 + energy --> C6H12O6 + 6 O2
40
Moss
``` spore plants no true roots, stems, leaves nonvascular water and nutrients move by diffusion reproduce with spores grow in shady, damp areas ```
41
Ferns
``` spore plants true roots, stems, and leaves vascular (xylem & phloem) reproduce with spores grow in shady, damp areas ```
42
cotyledon
embryo in seed plant
43
Gymnosperms
produce cones | needle-like leaves
44
Cones (male vs female)
pollen cones containing sperm-male | seed cones containing eggs-female
45
Angiosperms
produce flowers/fruits broad leaves drop their leaves
46
Flowers (male vs female)
stamen with anther (has pollen w/ sperm)-male | pistil with ovaries (has ovules w/ eggs)-female
47
Pollination
Pollen transferred from stamen to pistil
48
Fertilization
sperm travel down pollen tube and joins w/ egg
49
Germination
growth of plant from seed | ends dormant period of seed
50
Root
plant tissue | absorbs minerals and water from soil
51
Stem
plant tissue | transports water and minerals up (xylem) and food down (phloem)
52
Leaves
plant tissue site of photosynthesis transpiration occurs through leaves
53
Xylem & phloem
vascular tissue X-moves water and minerals up P-moves food down from leaves
54
Spongy layer
vascular tissue | CO2 in O2 out
55
Stomata
vascular tissue CO2 in, O2 & H2O out has guard cells regulates transpiration
56
Guard cells
vascular tissue water in--> swell and bend to open stomata water out --> shrink and close the stomata
57
Transpiration
``` plants lose water to atmosphere open stomata=increase in transpiration destruction of rainforest=decrease in transpiration water moves from biotic-->abiotic part of water cycle ```
