QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS | WITH COMPLETE SOLUTION.




element Answer - matter that is made up of a single type of atom


Paul Eurlich Answer - "magic bullet" idea for syphillis. Wanted to kill pathogen
but not patient.


snow Answer - epidemiology- studied outbreak of cholera>linked to a water
source and shit that water source down and the epidemic stopped


phagocytosis Answer - moving large solid material into the cell


pinocytosis Answer - moving liquid into the cell


eukaryotic lysosome Answer - in animal cells. "recycling bin". it breaks down
cell parts with enzymes. can destroy invading prokaryote and open into the
cytoplasm for "suicide"


EUKARYOTE VACUOLE Answer - storage for starch, lipids, water, etc. largest
organelle in cell. plants and algae.


eukaryote peroxisomes Answer - "toxin neutralizer" thats a specific lysosome.
enzymes destroy poisonous metabolic waste.

,eukaryotes chloroplast Answer - harvest light for photosynthesis. (2
phospholipid membranes) and THLAKOIDS which are membranous sacs
(pancake shaped) which contain pigments to ETC to convert light to ATP. Have
own DNA and ribosomes, make few proteins.


eukaryote mitochondria Answer - cellular respiration for animal cells. 2
phospholipid bilayers that has tiny folds inside (cristae ~~~) and cristae contain
ETC to convert chem energy to ATP. Have own DNA and ribosomes, make few
proteins.


EUKARYOTES FLAGELLUM Answer - moves by undulation not rotation.
structure is complex arrangement of tubulin. basal body and filament, but
surrounded by cell membrane.
structure:
-tubuin forms hollow tubes-> microtubules

membrane for the cell shape. *not present in all bacteria


symbiosis Answer - two or more organisms of different species living together


archaea cell membrane Answer - function similar to bacteria. sometimes only
one layer, use different types of phospholipids than ll other organisms, fatty
acids can be branched, different covalent bond between fatty acid and glycerol.


atom Answer - smallest chemical unit of matter


pathogen Answer - each disease is caused by specific organisms


Senmelweis Answer - OBGYN who activated for hand washing in hospitals.
noticed more women died who gave birth in hospitals than who didn't and
deaths declined after implementing hand washing. was treated poorly for this
idea


eukaryote centrisome Answer - functions and is important in cel division of
many eukaryotes (mitosis and cytokenesis) 1: shape is 2 centrosomes at a right
