,Test File Questions
Chapter 1 - Introduction To Cells And Cell Research
Rna Is Believed To Have Been The Original Generic System Because It Can
A) Form A Stable Double Helix With A Complementary Nucleic Acid Strand
B) Catayze The Polymerization Of Nucleotiodes Int Anther Rna Strand
C) Form Ribosomes
D) Transport Amino Acids To
Ribosomes Answer B
Textbook To Refer To The Original Evolution Of Cells
2 The Initial Importance Of Membrancs Enclosing Self-Replicating Rna Molecules And Association
Proteins Was That They
A) Maintained These Molecules As A Unite Capable Of And Evolution
B) Provided Sites For Proteins To Function
C) Transport Materials In And Out Of The Compartment
D) Kept Other Molecules Out Of The Compartment
, Answers A
Textbook Reference The Origin And Envolution Of Cell
Eukaryotic Vs Prokaryotic
Eukaryotic Cells Have A Nucleus, Cytoplasmic Organelles, Multiple Linear Dna Molecules, And Are
Generally Much Larger And Contain More Dna Than Prokaryotic Cells, Which Are Smaller, Simpler,
And Contain A Nucleoid Without A Nuclear Membrane
How Did The First Cell Arise?
1. Spontaneous Formation Of Organic Molecules From Primordial Earth Gases And Heat/Electricity
2. Macromolecules Formed (Rna) In The Absence Of Water, Which Drove The Reaction Forward
3. Self-Replicating Rna Was Enclosed In A Phospholipid
Membran Why Is Rna Special?
Rna Is Capable Of Polymerizing Nucleotides In Order To Synthesize A New Rna Strand Using An Rna
Template. Rna Self-Replication Is Thought To Be The First Genetic System (Rna World)
How Did Metabolism Arise?
Cells Needed A Better Way To Gain Materials And Energy.
1. Glycolysis
2. Photosynthesis
3. Oxidative Metabolism
What Is Glycolysis?
(C6h12o6 Glucose -> 2c3h6o3 Lactic Acid) It Uses Substrate Level Phosphorylation To Create 2 Atp
From Organic Molecules. First Stage In The Development Of Metabolism
