Document Summary

Chapter 1, life begins with cells: four aspects of the cell theory, archaea are in between prokaryotes and eukaryotes in terms of evolution (fig. 1-3): halophiles vs. thermophiles vs. methanophiles, what is the nucleoid in a prokaryotic cell, what important internal features distinguish eukaryotic cells from prokaryotic cells, list the names and functions of the various eukaryotic organelles. Meselson and stahl: what"s a karyotype, review the eukaryotic cell cycle. Chapter 2, chemical foundations: we said that water, ions, and small molecules make up ~77 of a cell"s mass. What makes up the remaining 23%: electronegativity to explain: polar versus non-polar covalent bonds ionic bonds hydrogen bonds, van der waals and hydrophobic interactions. (figs. 2-10 and 21 are good): fatty acids (fig. 2-21) versus triacylglycerols (page 48) versus phospholipids (fig. 2-20): know the 20 standard amino acids. What"s the difference between alpha and beta glucose: reaction rates and chemical equilibrium.
