Cells & Transport Study Guide Cell Theory 1) All living things are made up of cells 2) Cells are the basic units of structure and function in an organism 3) New cells are produced from existing cells Scientists: 1665 Robert Hooke Coined word ?cell? Looked at cork under microscope 1674 Anton van Leeuwenhoek Perfected the simple microscope Discovered protozoa 1838 Matthias Schleiden Discovered/published fact that all plants are made of cells 1839 Theodor Schwann Discovered/published fact that all animals are made of cells 1855 Rudolf Virchow Discovered/published fact that all cells come from preexisting cells 1931 Janet Plowe Demonstrated that a cell is a physical structure 1970 Lynne Margulis Created endosymbiotic theory Endosymbiotic Theory

AP Bio Monday Carol Sheftall Sent: Monday, September 30, 2013 12:25 PM To: The Lab Seven Statistical Analysis Section (handout from Friday) was to be completed before coming to class today. (This is from the old lab book) Friday we counted the number of cells in interphase vs. then number of cells in mitotic phase. ?Thus, you collected the control cells data. We added the data together (below) to find totals. ?

Campbell's Biology, 9e (Reece et al.) Chapter 12 The Cell Cycle In this chapter, 24 questions are new, and 12 have been altered to incorporate new material from the textbook. As in the other chapters, any questions that depend on figures or introductory scenarios have been placed at the end of the chapter rather than in concept sequence. Multiple-Choice Questions 1) The centromere is a region in which A) chromatids remain attached to one another until anaphase. B) metaphase chromosomes become aligned at the metaphase plate. C) chromosomes are grouped during telophase. D) the nucleus is located prior to mitosis. E) new spindle microtubules form at either end. Answer: A Topic: Concept 12.1 Skill: Knowledge/Comprehension

Campbell's Biology, 9e (Reece et al.) Chapter 11 Cell Communication Students will encounter the topic of cell signaling repeatedly in this course and throughout their studies of biology. Therefore, the more confident they are regarding the basic principles, the more successful they are liable to be when encountering the topic. This chapter includes more higher-skill-level questions and makes connections to the principle of evolution as well as to other chapters of the text. Multiple-Choice Questions 1) Using the yeast signal transduction pathways, both types of mating cells release the mating factors. These factors bind to specific receptors on the correct cells, A) which induce changes in the cells that lead to cell fusion.

Chapter 4: A Tour of the Cell Types of Cells Prokaryotic- a type of cell lacking a membrane-enclosed organelles Bacteria and Archaea DNA in the nucleoid which is not membrane-bound Eukaryotic- a type of cell with membrane bound organelles Protists, Plants, Fungi, and Animals Contian a membrane-bound nucleus Contain organelles and cytoplasm Both: Have ribosomes Plasma membrane Jelly-like cytosol Chromosomes *As the volume of a cell grows, the surface area increases proportionally because more plasma membrane needed to transfer necessary materials for the metabolic processes *Different organelles increase complexity of the cell because each organelle has a specific function, whit allows multiple activities to be going on in the cell at once The Nucleus
