most of the cells in the human body are:

smaller than the period at the end of this sentence, but larger than most bacteria.

if a physician took a biopsy of one of your lymph nodes and wanted to see quickly if the cells in their living state looked normal, she could observe the cells using

a light microscope

members of the domains Bacteria and Archaea have

ribosomes but no endoplasmic reticulum

you find a perviously unknown single-celled organisms in a water sample. While studying it, you find that the organism is photosynthetic and has a cell membrane surrounded by a layer of peptidoglycan (carbohydrates linked to peptides). the organism contains DNA and RNA but you see no nuclear membrane. This organisms most likely belongs to which group?

bacteria

(photo of flagella) if you could observe the living organism shown in the figure above, you would see that it can use the structures labeled 1 to

swim in a cork-screw like motion

the photograph of the organism (flagella) was most likely taken with a :

electron microscope

a typical human lymphocyte has a radius of about 10 um, while a typical bacterium has a radius of about 1 um. assuming that both cell types are perfectly spherical, how many times larger is the surface area of a typical human lymphocyte compared to the surface area of a typical bacterium?

100

a cell has a surface of 32 um2 and a volume of 8 um3. A different cell has a surface area of 36 um2 and a volume of 12 um3. what is the ratio of surface area to volume for the cell that is predicted to exchange materials with the surrounding environment at a faster rate by diffuse?

4
because 32/8 i guess

a) describe the structure and function of two eukaryotic membrane bound organelles other than the nucleus

b) prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells have some non-membrane bound components in common. Describe the function of two o the following and discuss two each differs in prokaryotes and eukaryotes
-DNA
-Cell wall
-ribosomes

c) explain the endosymbiotic theory of the origin of eukaryotic cells and discuss an example of evidence supporting this theory

a) two organelles in eukaryotes are mitochondria and vacuoles. Mitochondria provide energy and use ATP as a form of entry. the vacuole is used for storage or water or other substances inside the cell.
b) Both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells have DNA and ribosomes. In eukaryotic cells the DNA is located in the nucleus. in prokaryotic cells it is within the cytoplasm. Ribosomes are also located in both, scattered throughout the cell. They are also located on the rough endoplasmic reticulum. They aid in protein synthesis.
c) the endosymbiotic theory states that prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells both originate from the same thing. They have some of the same organelles. like ribosomes and the cell wall. They also have different organelles that carry out similar functions, like the nucleus and nuclear membrane. They both are able to function with the absence of certain membranes because of the endosymbiotic theory.

BIOLOGY

A human gene was initially identified as having three exons and two introns. The exons are 456, 224, and 524 bp, whereas the introns are 2.3 kb and 4.6 kb. a. Draw this gene, showing the promoter, introns, exons, and transcription start and stop sites. b. Surprisingly, this gene is found to encode not one but two mRNAs that have only 224 nucleotides in common. The original mRNA is 1204 nucleotides, and the new mRNA is 2524 nucleotides. Use your drawing to show how this one region of DNA can encode these two transcripts.

What is an advantage of cells having internal membranes?

Membrane-bound organelles offer several advantages to eukaryotic cells. First, cells can concentrate and isolate enzymes and reactants in a smaller volume, thereby increasing the rate and efficiency of chemical reactions.

How internal membranes and organelles contribute to cell functions?

In eukaryotes, the internal membranes partition the cell into specialized regions that allow cell processes to operate with optimal efficiency. Each compartment or membrane-bound organelle enables localization of chemical reactions.

What is the advantage of having organelles in cells quizlet?

Why are organelles important to eukaryotic cells? Organelles are structures found in cells that perform specific functions, and organelles are important because they allow chemical processes to occur at the same time without interfering with one another.

What is the importance of internal membranes in eukaryotic cells?

Unlike prokaryotes, eukaryotic cells also possess internal membranes that encase their organelles and control the exchange of essential cell components. Both types of membranes have a specialized structure that facilitates their gatekeeping function.
