PORTAGE LEARNING MICROBIOLOGY:
MODULE 1 2026/2027 ACTUAL
QUESTIONS WITH VERIFIED ANSWERS.
cytoplasm
the open volume within a cell, comprised mostly of water
containing dissolved substances important to the functioning of
the cell
organelles
membrane-enclosed structures that perform specific functions
nucleolus
the site of ribosome synthesis
ribosomes
responsible for protein synthesis/ located in the cytoplasm of
prokaryotic cells and are found attached to the endoplasmic
reticulum in eukaryotic cells
smooth ER
a series of membrane-enclosed sacs and interconnected tubes
(lumen)/ membrane is continuous with the nuclear membrane
rough ER
'rough' appearance is due to the presence of ribosomes that
stud the membrane surface
Golgi complex
'distribution center' of the cell and proteins may undergo
modifications
, lysosomes
serve as the waste disposal system of the cell
mitochondria
generating ATP
cristae
tightly packed folded internal membranes
chloroplasts
specific to algae and plants and house the photosynthetic
pigment chlorophyll/the site of photosynthesis
photosynthesis
the process of capturing sunlight and converting it into the
usable energy sources ATP and NADPH
carbohydrates
energy cells
-monosaccharides
-disaccharide
-polysaccharide
-highlypolar
polypeptide chain
long chain of amino acids linked by peptide bonds. which
makes a protein
peptide bonds
Bonds between amino acids
ribonuclease
