1
New cards

lysosomes

autolysis via hydrolytic enzymes

2
New cards

gogli apparatus

processes proteins for transport

3
New cards

peroxisomes

  • produces H2O2 to break down VLCFA

  • assists in phospholipid synthesis and PPP

4
New cards

microfilaments

  • actin rodes

  • protection, muscle contraction, cleavage furrow

5
New cards

microtubules

  • motor protein pathway and centrioles

  • cilia and flagella

  • 9+2 structure only in eukaryotes

6
New cards

intermediate filaments

  • keratin, desmin, vimentin, lamines

  • cell-cell adhesion, maintain cytoskeleton, cell rigidity, or organelles

7
New cards

bacteria structure

  • single circular chromosome in nucleoid

    • cell wall and plasma membrane

    • flagella

8
New cards

recombination bacteria

  • transformation- from environment

  • conjugation- between bacteria

  • transduction-from virus

9
New cards

archea vs bacteria

  • both have circular chromosome, no lipopolysaccharides nor peptidoglycans, undergoes binary fission

  • archea starts translation with methionine, histones, and similar RNA polymerase to euk

10
New cards

DNA viruses

  • consists of DNA genome, nucleus, and host machinery

  • dsDNA and ssDNA

11
New cards

RNA viruses DNA/RNA constitution

  • ssRNA- + or -, positive can be translated immediately to produce viral protein. Negative must be transcribed into the complementary sense before being transcribed

    • RNA dependent RNA polymerase- RdRP- transcribes - to +

12
New cards

viruses structure

  • caspid protein shell

  • nucleic acid genome

  • NO NUCLEUS or membrane bound organelle

  • 10-100x smaller than prok or euk

13
New cards

retroviruses

  • 2 copies of ssRNA

  • reverse transcriptase converts RNA to dsDNA

  • dsdNA enters nuc of host and inserts via integrase

  • becomes provirus- permanently ingrained into host genome

14
New cards

viroids

  • small circular ssRNA without caspid

  • affects plants

  • silences genes

15
New cards

prions

  • misfolded protein

  • alpha helices to beta pleated sheets

  • it decreases solubility, degrading

  • neural diseases

16
New cards

Interphase

  • G1- presynthetic gap, organelle formation, increases cell size

  • G0- resting, no division

  • S- DNA synthesis (2n, 2c → 2n, 4c)

  • G2- post synthetic gap- cell preparation before mitosis

17
New cards

Mitosis

  • somatic cell (2n, 4c→ 2 × 2n, 2c)

  • prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase

  • Checkpoints-

    • G1/S- repairs DNA before synthesis (p53 repairs)

    • G2/M- cell size and organelle check

    • M/A- checks if all chromosomes attached to spinde

    • cyclins and CDK control cell cycle

18
New cards

Prophase (mitosis and meiosis 2)

  • nuclear membrane dissolves, condensed chromosomes

    • centrioles move to poles, spindle apparatus forms, microtubules attach

      • Asters → centrioles, kinetochore fibers → kinetochores

19
New cards

Meiosis

  • Meiosis 1- sex cells, reductional division, diploid parent 2n, 4c → 2 haploid daughters 1n, 2c

  • Meiosis II- 2x 1n, 2c → 4× 1n,1c

20
New cards

meiosis 1

  • prophase 1- synapsis- homologs become tetrads via synaptonemal complexes, crossover- chromatids separate at chiasmata→ recombination

  • metaphase 1- homologs middle

  • anaphase 1- disjunction

  • telophase 1- partial chromosome uncoil, rest

21
New cards

metaphase

  • chromosomes align at mid

22
New cards

anaphase

  • chromosomes split and sister chromatids move to opposite poles

23
New cards

telophase

  • spindle apparatus disappears, nuclear membrane reforms, chromosome uncoils

  • cytokinesis

24
New cards

outside male structures and functions

  • penis- delivers urine

  • scrotum- supports testes

  • epididymis- connects testes and vans deferens

  • testes- produces testosterone

25
New cards

inside male structures

  • vans deferens- transports mature sperm to urethra

  • seminal vesicles- contributes to semen production, attaches to vans deferens

  • prostate gland- below bladder, helps sperm production

  • bulbourethral glands- side of urethra below prostate, cleans urethra

26
New cards

spermatogenesis

  • spermatogonia → 1 spermatocyte → 2 spermatocyte → spermatid → spermatozoa

27
New cards

sperm structure

  • head- acrosome for penetrating ovum

  • midpiece- mitochondria filled for motility

  • flagellum- 9+2

28
New cards

female external structure

  • mons pubis- fatty area that overlies pubic symphysis

  • clitoris- erectile tissue containing nerves

  • labia majora- covers labia minora

  • labia minora- covers vestibule

  • greater vestibular glands- sides of opening, lubricate

  • breast- mammary glands

29
New cards

internal female structures

  • ovaries- carry and produce eggs, secretes estrogen and progesterone

  • fallopian tubes- transport eggs

  • uterus- supports fetus, produces secretions, passes sperm on to fallopian tubes

  • vagina- tube

30
New cards

ovulation

  • follicles > peritoneal cavity > fallopian tube > uterus > cervix > vagina

31
New cards

oogenesis

  • 1 oocyte > 2 oocyte + polar body (stays in metaphase II until fertilization)

32
New cards

oocyte structure

  • zona pellucida- protects ovum, binds sperm

  • corona radiata- stuck to oocyte during ovulation

33
