grdaed A+
,What can be described as the smallest living unit?
cell
The process of change and selection over the course of many
generations is the basis of...
evolution
What unit of length would you generally use to measure a typical
plant or animal cell?
micrometers
Prokaryotic cells do not possess...
a nucleus
What are the characteristics that best support the rapid evolution
of prokaryotic populations?
large population, rapid growth, can exchange DNA
Observable characteristic that best distinguishes archaea from
bacteria
extremely harsh environments
What material/energy is consumed/produced during cellular
respiration?
sugar & ATP
What is the main organelle that performs cellular respiration?
mitochondria
What is cellular respiration?
a process that uses oxygen, generates carbon dioxide, and
produces chemical energy for the cell
Why can mitochondria not function for long when isolated from a
cell?
, endosymbiosis
Endosymbionts
the occurrence of 2 organisms living together with one inside the
other
Anaerobes
do not require oxygen and may even be killed by exposure
role of the lysosome
clean up, recycling, and disposal of macromolecules
What was the first molecule to arise during evolution
RNA
the minimum requirement for life to have originated on Earth was
the formation of a...
molecule that could catalyze its own replication
ribozymes catalyze which reaction in cells?
DNA splicing
cell theory
all living things are made of 1+ cells, it is the fundamental unit of
structure and function, essentially same in chemical composition
replication
DNA synthesis
transcription
RNA synthesis
translation
protein synthesis
What distinguishes cells from other non-living entities?
