With Solution

Cell function - ANSWER - movement

- conductivity

- metabolic absorption

- secretion

- excretion

- reproduction

- communication




nucleus - ANSWER - cellular control center

- DNA: codebook for creating a human being




mitochondria - ANSWER - "powerhouse" generates cellular energy via ATP




endoplasmic reticulum - ANSWER - protein management

, golgi apparatus - ANSWER - package




ribosomes - ANSWER translate RNA to proteins




lysosomes - ANSWER contain degradative enzymes




cytoskeleton - ANSWER - provide structure, "madways" and polarity to cell




function of DNA in controlling cell function - ANSWER -stable DNA molecule
(contains the information needed for control of the cell structure and
function)

- every cell in the body contains the same genetic information

(each cell type uses only a portion depending on its structure and function)

- four bases making up the alphabet of the genetic code ( adenine, cytosine,
guanine and thymine (in RNA, uracil))




protein formation - ANSWER - proteins formed from DNA translation have a
specific shape

- amino acid sequence determines shape

- 3-4 levels of protein structure

- form will influence function (improperly formed proteins -> alteration in
