Study Notes
Levels of Biological Organization
- The study of life has a hierarchy of organization.
- Organisms are comprised of organs and organ systems.
- Organisms, organs and organ systems are made up of cells.
Eukaryotic vs Prokaryotic Cells
- Both types of cells share DNA as their genetic material.
- Both types of cells have ribosomes.
- Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus, membrane-bound organelles, and are usually multicellular.
- Prokaryotic cells have no nucleus, do not have membrane-bound organelles, and are usually unicellular.
- Eukaryotic cells have larger ribosomes than prokaryotic cells.
- Eukaryotic cells have more than one chromosome.
- Eukaryotic cells are found in animals and plants, prokaryotic cells are found in bacteria and archaea.
- Eukaryotic cells have mitochondria, prokaryotic cells do not.
- Eukaryotic cells have a Golgi apparatus, prokaryotic cells do not.
Nutrient Cycling
- Nutrients are cycled through the environment.
- Plants acquire nutrients from the soil, which eventually return to the soil.
Taxonomy
- Taxonomy is the branch of biology that names and classifies species.
