Document Summary

Understanding cell biology: the components and the processes. Smallest form of life is a cell. Each protein encoded by a specific gene. Source of energy in plants and animals (photosynthesis and cellular respiration) Number of genes (varies from 500 to 31000) In the end all of our energy originates from the sun. 3 kingdoms of life: bacteria and 2. Archaea (prokaryotes, common ancestor is fes: eukaryotes. In prokaryotes, their dna + ribosomes + proteins + sugars etc. float around in the cell, they are not membrane-bound. Organelle = something is an organelle if it"s surrounded by a membrane (like in eukaryotes) Cell wall (only plants and fungi) it"s a rigid structure. Organelles to be discussed: nucleus, membrane, nuclear pores, endoplasmic reticulum, ribosomes, golgi apparatus, lysosomes, mitochondria. Model organisms: use the best organism to study specific processes: metabolism, transcription, translation. E. coli bacterium (simple, cheap to grow, small genome, protein purification: organelles.

Related Questions

. Explain how photosynthesis and respiration are linked in orderto provide you with energy from the food you eat.

Include in your essay:

Complete descriptions of photosynthesis and aerobicrespiration.
Describe how these two processes are linked between plants andanimals based on the reactants and products (water, carbon dioxide,glucose and oxygen) of both pathways.
Include a description of how energy is transferred fromsunlight to ATP, from ATP to sugars, and from sugars to yourcells.

2. In the absence of oxygen some cells and organisms can useglycolysis coupled to fermentation to produce energy from the sugarcreated by photosynthesis.

Explain the role of fermentation in allowing an organism togenerate energy for its cell(s) in the absence of oxygen.
Include any reactions required for this process, and explainhow the energy from the sun ends up as chemical energy for theanaerobic organism or cell.

3. Cells use enzymes as biological catalysts to increase oraccelerate the rate of reactions, such as those in photosynthesisor glycolysis. This allows reactions to occur under conditions thatsustain life.

Explain how an enzyme catalyzes a reaction. Include in youressay the three main steps of the cycle of enzyme-substrateinteractions.

Why is water considered a polar molecule?

The negatively charged oxygen atom attracts the positively charged hydrogen atoms.

The oxygen is found between the two hydrogens.

It remains liquid even at very low temperatures.

Both hydrogens are at one end of the molecule, and oxygen is at the other end.

Its electrons spend more time with its oxygen than with either hydrogen.
