Is rigid and provide structural support and shape. Is a thick layer of polysaccharide fibers composed of chitin or cellulose. And has a thin outer layer of mixed glycans

What does a cytoplasmic membrane serve as

A selectively permeable barrier with a bilayer of phospholipids

Golgi apparatus

The site of protein modification and shipping. Consists of several flattened disc shaped sacs called cisternae

Lysosomes vesicles

Contain enzymes involved in digestion of food particles and protection against invading microorganisms. Participate in the removal of cell debris in damaged tissue

Vacuoles vesicles

Are membrane-bound sacs containing fluids or solid particles to be digested, excreted or stored. Contents are digested through a merger between the vacuole and lysosome

Mitochondria

Composed of smooth continuous out of membrane with an inner membrane that has tubular inner folds called cristae. It is the PowerHouse of the cell

Chloroplast

Are found in algae and plant cells. They are capable of converting energy from sunlight into chemical energy through photosynthesis. Produce oxygen gas as a byproduct

Ribosomes

Are distributed throughout the cell. Can be found in short chains a poly ribosomes. Or large and small subunits of ribonucleic protein

The cytoskeleton

Functions are anchoring organelles. Permitting shape changes. And movement. The three types of elements are actin filaments, microtubules, intermediate filaments

Fungi

Mushrooms, puffballs, Gill fungi. Molds yeast. Dear unicellular, Colonial, complex and multicellular

Hyphae

Long thread-like cells found in the bodies of filamentous fungi.

Pseudohypha

Chain of yeast cells

Mucelium

The Woodland intertwining mass of hyphae that makes up the body or colony of mold

SEPTA

Segments are cross walls found in most fungi that allow the flow of organelles and nutrients between adjacent compartments

Vegetative hyphae

Responsible for the visible mass of growth

What does the reproductive are fertile hyphae do

Produce spores

The protozoa

Has 65,000 species of single-celled organism. Most are harmless in Free Living inhabitants of water and soil. A few species of parasites are responsible for hundreds of millions of factions each year

What is the protozoan form and function

There are single-celled containing all major eukaryotic organelles except chloroplast.

Ectoplasm

The clear outer layer involved in Locomotion feeding and protection in cytoplasm in a protozoa

Endoplasm

The granular inner region housing the nucleus, mitochondria, and food and vacuoles in the cytoplasm in a protozoa

Trophozoite in a protozoa

The motile feeding stage with crying ample food and moisture to stay active

What is a cyst in a protozoa

The dormant resting stage when conditions in the varmint become unfavorable. There was distant to heat and drying and chemicals. Important factor in the spread of disease

Some prednisone groups exist only in the

Trophozoite face but many alternate between this stsge and the cyst stage

Trichomonas vaginalis

A common STD that does not form sis and must be transmitted by intimate contact

Entamoeba histolytica and giardia lambilia

Form cyst in are readily transmitted in contaminated water and food

Helminths

Are flatworms

Trematodes

Sexes can be seperate or hermaphrodites

Cestodes. Tapeworms

Hermaphrodite

Nematodes

Sexes are separate and different in appearance

Helminth life cycle

Must transmit an effective form to the body of another host. In the host in which the larvae develops is known as an intermediate host. Adulthood in mating occur in the definitive host

Enterbius vermicularis

Pinworm, common in large intestine

The helminth cycle

Eggs are swallowed in are hatched in the intestine. Larvae matures into adults within one month, in male and female worms mate. Females migrate to the anus to deposit eggs. Intense itching occurs in scratching spreads the eggs

What is the smallest virus

Parvovirus. 20 nanometers

What is the largest virus

Pandoravirus

What are the viral components of a virus

External coating, core containing one or more nucleic acid strains of DNA or RNA, and sometimes one or two enzymes. Repeating subunits give rise to their crystalline appearance

What is a capsid

Protein shell that surrounds the nucleic acid

What are the different types A viruses shapes

Helical (cylinder), icosahedral (sphere shape), and complex

What is the envelope

External covering of a nucleocapsid which is usually a modified piece of the host cell's membrane

DNA viruses can be

Single or double stranded

RNA viruses are typically

Single stranded

What is a retrovirus

They carry their own enzymes to create DNA out of RNA

What is the difference between positive and negative sense RNA

Negative sense RNA must be converted before translation

What are the general phases of the animal viral replication cycle

Absorption, penetration, uncoating, synthesis, assembly, and release

What is absorption

When a virus attacks a cell. It may have a Host range which limits what cells a virus can infect. Cells that lack compatible receptors are resistant to absorption

What cells does polio virus attack

Intestinal and nerve cells

Penetration

Can happen in two ways. Endocytosis or direct penetration which is a fusion of the viral envelope with the cell membrane

Uncoating

Enzymes in the vacuole dissolve the envelope and capsid. Virus fuses with the wall of the vesicle. And viral nucleic acid is released into the cytoplasm

Synthesis in a DNA virus

They enter the host cell nucleus and replicate or replicate in the cytoplasm

Synthesis in a RNA virus

Replicates in the cytoplasm

How do retroviruses synthesize

They turn their RNA genomes into DNA and then inserts into host cell genome

Assembly

Virus is put together using Parts manufactured during synthesis process

Release

The number of viruses released by infected cells

Cytopathic effects

Virus induced damage to the cell that alters its microscopic appearance.

What are inclusion bodies

Compacted masses of viruses are protein components

Chronic latent stage

Periodically between activated under the influence of various stimuli, such as herpes simplex and herpes zoster virus

Viruses and cancer

Experts estimate that 20% of cancers are caused by viruses.

What is transformation in a virus

The effect of oncogenic are cancer-causing viruses. Some viruses carry genes that directly cause cancer. Other viruses produce proteins that induce a loss of growth regulation leading to cancer

How can transform cells cause cancer

The increase rate of growth, alterations in chromosomes, changes in cell surface molecules, and the capacity to divide indefinitely

Oncoviruses

Lysogeny

A condition in which the host chromosome carries viral DNA. Viral DNA enters an inactive state are inserted into bacterial chromosome and copied during normal bacterial cell division. Induction is a virus and a lysogenic cell becomes activated and progresses in viral replication

What is the danger of lysogeny in human disease

Can cause the production of toxins or enzymes that cause pathology and humans. Lysogenic conversion is when a bacterium acquires a new trait from its temperate phage.
