What does the cell theory state? - CORRECT ANSWER1. all organisms are made up of cells
2. cells are the basic units of structure and function in organisms
3. cells come only from preexisting cells because cells are self-reproducing
All cells include what 4 things? - CORRECT ANSWER1. DNA
2. Cell membrane
3. Cytoplasm
4. Ribosomes
What is the central dogma? - CORRECT ANSWERIt's the basic flow of information in a cell, it's the two
step process of transcription and translation by which information in the genes flow into proteins.
What is the purpose of the cellular membrane? - CORRECT ANSWERTo control the movement of
materials into + out of the cell
What are the 3 domains of life? - CORRECT ANSWERBacteria, Archaea = prokaryotes
Eukarya = Eukaryotic
What does metabolism mean? - CORRECT ANSWERThe chemical reaction by which cells convert energy
from one form to another
ATP allows cells to do what? - CORRECT ANSWERGrowth, division + moving substances in and out of the
cell
What are some traits of prokaryotic cells? - CORRECT ANSWER- Does not have a membrane bound
nucleus (it has a nucleoid region)
- Much smaller then Eukaryotic cells
, - No organelles
- Different promoter recognition
- DNA is a single circular chromosome
What are some traits of eukaryotic cells? - CORRECT ANSWER- Has a membrane bound nucleus
- Cholesterol is present in the cell membrane
- Much larger then Prokaryotic cells
- Contains organelles
- DNA is linear
What are some traits that Prokaroytic and Eukaryotic cells share? - CORRECT ANSWER- Contain protein,
water and DNA
- Contain Ribosomes
- Has a cellular membrane
What are the 4 major categories of macromolecules in cells? - CORRECT ANSWER1. Protein
2. Nucleic Acid
3. Lipids
4. Carbohydrates
What is the monomer of Protein + what is its bond? - CORRECT ANSWERMonomer: Amino Acid
Bond: Peptide bond
What is the directionality of protein + the reason for it? - CORRECT ANSWERThe amino group (of one
amino acid) attaches to the carboxyl group of another amino acid
= "N" terminus (is how it starts) to "C" terminus (how it always finishes)
What is the monomer for Nucleic Acid + what is its bond? - CORRECT ANSWERMonomer: nucleotides
