Study Notes
Unicellular Organisms
- Bacteria and protozoans are unicellular.
Prokaryotic Cells
- Bacteria are not eukaryotic.
- Bacterial genetic material is located in the nucleoid.
- Cytoplasmic streaming is a system of fibers within a bacterium to move substances.
- Ribosomes read RNA and assemble amino acids into proteins
Cell Structures
- Chromatin: DNA, RNA, and proteins in the nucleus.
- Optimal Temperature Range: A species of bacteria grows best between 16-20°C.
- Isotonic Solution: Solutions containing equal amounts of solute, maintaining cell balance.
- Active Transport: Requires energy to move substances across the cell membrane.
- **Cell Theory:**Explains how cells work. It is false that cells in a colony can't live independently.
