1. phagocytosis White blood cell eats an aging red blood cell and releases
the contents into the blood
2. erythropoeisis production of red blood cells
3. hematopoiesis formation of blood cells from pluripotent stem cells
4. pluripotent stem able to give rise to multiple, but not all, cell types.

7. bound ribo- attached to outside of ER or nuclear envelope- proteins
somes that are destined for insertion into membranes or packag-
ing certain organelles (ex: lysosome)
8. free ribosomes suspended in cytosol which will function in cytosol (ex:
enzymes)
9. cellular respira- a set of metabolic reactions and processes that take place
tion in the cells of organisms to convert biochemical energy
from nutrients into adenosine triphosphate (ATP- 32-36
molecules for every glucose), and then release waste
products.
10. 3 steps of cellu- glycolysis, krebs cycle, electron transport chain
lar respiration
11. glycolysis -takes place in cytosol of cytoplasm
-2 ATP, 2 pyruvate, 2 NADH

12. Krebs Cycle -takes place in matrix of mitochondria
-for 1 consumed glucose molecule, produces 2 ATP, 6
CO2, 6 NADH
13. Electron Trans- -mitochondria
port Chain -for every glucose molecule, 28 to 32 ATP molecules
produced
14. WBC breakdown Neutrophil (50-75%), Lymphocyte (25-35%), Monocytes
(3-9%), Eosinophils (<5%)
15. reactants and reactants: glucose and oxygen
products of cel- products: carbon dioxide, water, and ATP
lular respiration
16. pleiotropy the ability of a single gene to have multiple effects.
17. epistasis 1 gene dependent on 1 modifier gene (inherited gene)

18. Where are nucle- viruses and living cells
ic acids found?
19. chromatin comprised of histones and DNA- DNA wraps around hi-
stones to form the basic chromatin unit (nucleosome);
function is to efficiently package DNA into a small volume
to fit into the nucleus of a cell and protect DNA structure
and sequence
20. Golgi apparatus -involved in synthesizing materials such as proteins that
are transported out of the cell
-located near the nucleus and consists of layers of mem-
brane
21. mitochondria -generate ATP, involved in cell growth and death
-contain their own DNA that is separate from that con-
tained in the nucleus
-matrix (DNA, ribosomes) > inner membrane (cristae-
folds) > outer membrane
