    • • Tight Junctions: Ex. Epithelial Cell
    • • Desmosomes: Ex. Epithelial cells, holds your cells together.
    • • Gap Junctions: Ex. Heart Muscles, Animal Embryos
  10. Cells are small because
    they are limited by the food they can take in
  11. A cell that is actively involved in exchanging a lot of material with their surrooundings wouldbe expected to have a . . .
    a large surface are to volume ratio
  12. How is the cell wall similar between Eu and Prokaryotes?
    • Cell Shape
    • Physical Protection
    • Osmoregulation
  13. How is the cell wall different between Eu and Prokaryotes?
    • The structual components.
    • Eukaryotes: cellulose or chitin
    • Prokaryotes:
    • ◦ Bacteria: Peptidoglycan
    • ◦ Archaea: Variety of polysaccharides and proteins
  14. Do cell walls prevent cells from dying in hypertonic solutions?
    No.
  15. How do you think immune cells recognize foreign cells?
    They read the proteins, carbohydrates and libids that are attached to the membrane
  16. A cells is Gram Positive if...
    it has a peptidoglycan layer
  17. Gram Negative bacteria:
    • Has an extra layer before the peptidoglycan layer
    • Are more pathogenic
  18. Pili and Fimbriae
    • Made of proteins.
    • Hairlike appendages
    • Attach to certain cells, bacteria to each other, exchanging genetic material between bacteria
    • Called Sex pilots
  19. Flagella
    • Help move the cell
    • Very different between Eu and Prokaryotes
    • In Prokaryotes, made of filament and connected to the cell membrane
    • In Eukaryotes, made of a cell membrane that is filled with microtubules and is not connected.
  20. What shape is the DNA in Bacteria and Eukaryotes?
    Circular
  21. Plasmid
    "in case of" DNA
  22. Do ribosome fucntion similarly in pro and eukaryotes?
    Yes
  23. Extremophiles
    love extream environments
  24. Extreme thermophiles
    temperature
  25. Extreme halophiles
    salt
  26. Methanogens
    • Prokaryote
    • Live in stumachs of termites and cows
    • Use CO2 to oxidize H2, releasing methane
  27. Why are Archaea and Bacteria Fundamentally Different
    • Cell wall
    • Plasma Membrane
    • Ribosomes
    • RNA Polymerases
  28. Viruses
    • not living!!
    • DNA surrounded by a protein coat
    • Does not have ribosomes or a plasma membrane
    • Ia parasite
    • Bacteriophage
  29. Viroid
    • Infectious particels
    • lack coat protein
    • short circular strands of RNA
  30. Prions
    consists only of protein
  31. Living cells require Energy t/f
    True
  32. Kenetic Energy
    • Heat, thermal energy
    • Light
  33. Potential Energy
    • Chemical Energy
    • food/glucose
  34. First law of conservation of energy
    Energy cannot be created nor distroyed
  35. Second law of thermodynamics
    • During energy transfer/transformation
    • Some energy becomes unusable
  36. ATP is used to drive nearly all cellular activities
    True
  37. Movement of molecules against a concentration gradient....
    Requires Energy
  38. Electrogenic Pumps
    • Sodium (Na+) Potasium(K+) pump
    • More Na+ out
    • Generates voltage
    • 3 out 2 in
  39. The Proton Pump
    • Main electrogenic pump
    • Protons= H+
    • Store Energy for cells
    • Electrochemical gradient
  40. Voltages across the plasma membrane are...
    • the result of concentration gradients
    • used by the cells as an energy source
    • referred to asmembrane potential.
  41. Proton pumps, sodium potassium pump, active transport
    all require energy
  42. Exergonic Reactions
    energy out
  43. Endogonic Reactions
