BIO 353 Cell Biology Study Questions for Exam #3 Fall‚ 2012 Cytoskeleton “The harder the conflict‚ the more glorious the triumph.” Thomas Paine... “Unless you really just screw up.” Bush 1. What are microfilaments? (He said know how to identify/draw these) Note: since it is multiple choice‚ I doubt we will have to know how to draw them. **There are also short essay questions and‚ in past classes‚ he has asked students to draw. I thought the final was ALL MULTIPLE CHOICE???********************************

Cells‚ in a lot of ways‚ are like factories. All the parts of a cell work together to accomplish common goals‚ just like parts of a factory. Each part also has a specific function‚ to make getting the job done a lot easier. The floor of a factory is a lot like the cytoplasm in a cell. It kind of keeps everything where it needs to be‚ and helps direct organelles around the cell‚ much like the pathways on the floor around the machines. The cell membrane in a cell is very similar to the outside

temperature such as cold/hot would have on the diffusion rate? Answer: The rate of diffusion of molecules depends on how soluble they are. The rate of diffusion depends on the size of the molecule in general‚ small molecules would pass through a membrane faster than larger molecules. As temperatures increase‚ molecular movement increases. As the movement increases‚ so will the diffusion rate as the molecules spread faster and faster. The opposite would be true of colder temperatures. 3. Considering

Associate Program Material Cell Energy Worksheet Answer the following questions: Cellular respiration: What is cellular respiration and what are its three stages? Cellular respiration is the complete cycle of a glucose molecule that happens to be using oxygen. The three stages of cellular respiration are: Glycosis‚ the Krebs cycle‚ and the electron transport chain. What is the role of glycolysis? Include the reactants and the products. Where does it occur? Glycolysis is the

Cells of the body are organized into four fundamental tissues; epithelial‚ connective‚ muscle and nerve. Epithelial tissues line all surfaces of the body: the skin‚ cavities‚ ducts‚ vessels. They are named according to the cell shape on the free surface. Cells of a tissue are held together by the basement membrane and intercellular fibbers. These tissues receive their nutrition by diffusion‚ for they are without blood vessels. Simple squamous epithelium lines all blood and lymphatic vessel‚ including

The Cell Cycle Mitosis: the process by which cells reproduce themselves‚ resulting in daughter cells that contain the same amount of genetic material as the parent cell. Interphase Prophase Metaphase Anaphase Telophase Cytokinesis Cell Division Occurs in a series of stages of phases Interphase occurs before mitosis begins Chromosomes are copied (# doubles) Chromosomes appear as threadlike coils (chromatin) at the start‚ but each chromosome and its copy(sister chromosome) change to sister

Cell Fractionation: Isolation of Mitochondria from Cauliflower and Determination of Specific Enzyme Kinetics Introduction Mitochondria is an organelle found in eukaryotic cells that play a role in biochemical processes such as respiration and energy production. Mitochondria even play an important role in apoptosis‚ or programmed cell death. This is achieved by disruption of electron transport‚ oxidative phosphorylation‚ and ATP production or even the release of proteins that trigger activation

light microscope when you want to see the cell in the act of moving or dividing. 2. Prokaryotic cells don’t have organelles like eukaryotic cells do. Eukaryotic cells contain its DNA within its nucleus‚ while prokaryotic cells keep it within the nucleoid. Prokaryotic cells are also more minute than the eukaryotic cells. Also although they both contain ribosomes‚ they are composed differently. 3. The central vacuole (takes in water and chemicals)‚ cell wall (allows the plant to be strong enough
