QUESTIONS AND CORRECT ANSWERS
prokaryotes (physical domain) - CORRECT ANSWER any cellular organism that has
no nuclear membrane, such as bacteria and blue-green algae (archaebacteria). typically
encountered like E coli.
eukaryotes (physical domain) - CORRECT ANSWER any organism having a cell type
that contains specialized organelles; this includes all life forms except bacteria, blue-green
algae, and other primitive microorganisms. can be cellular or multicellular.
6 kingdoms - CORRECT ANSWER animal, plant, fungi, protist, eubacteria,
archaebacteria. the first four are composed of eukaryotic cells.
taxonomic hierarchy - CORRECT ANSWER ranking domains -> kingdoms -> phylum,
class, order, family, genus and species- sorting organisms based on physical features
archaebacteria - CORRECT ANSWER extreme bacteria that live in places where life
wasn't expected to be found. (around hot water vents deep in the ocean).
chloroplast - CORRECT ANSWER found in plants were sugars are made in
photosynthesis
mitochondrion - CORRECT ANSWER the power plant of the cell
cytoplasm - CORRECT ANSWER the liquid that allows for movement within the cell
nucleus - CORRECT ANSWER where DNA is held, the instructions on what to do
, endoplasmic reticulum - CORRECT ANSWER where proteins and fats are made
plasma membrane - CORRECT ANSWER the type of cellular barrier found in animals
ribosome - CORRECT ANSWER makes protein
golgi complex - CORRECT ANSWER packages molecules for distribution
vesicles - CORRECT ANSWER made in the golgi, encloses materials for distribution
cell wall - CORRECT ANSWER the type of cellular barrier found in plants
centrioles - CORRECT ANSWER play a role in cell division
lysosomes - CORRECT ANSWER where waste material is broken down
cytoskeleton - CORRECT ANSWER helps maintain the shape of the cell
macromolecules - CORRECT ANSWER animals use these to derive energy- carbs,
proteins, and lipids
carbs - CORRECT ANSWER molecules like sugar and starch as a quick source of
energy
proteins - CORRECT ANSWER molecules made up of amino acids
lipids - CORRECT ANSWER large fat molecules used for energy storage
