GEN BIO NOTES L1&L2 PDF

Summary

These notes cover general biology topics, including cell history, cell structure, and cell division. The notes appear to be for an undergraduate level course. The focus is on prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, the cell cycle, and meiosis.

B. **[Prokaryotic Cell]** A. B. C. D. E. F. G. H. I. J. K. **[Gram Positive and Gram Negative Cell Walls]** **Gram Positive-** Thick, several layers, stains purple/ blue **Gram Negative-** Thin, single layer, stains pink/red A. a. b. c. d. B. C. a. b. D. E. F. G. H. I. J. K. L. M. N. O. P. **[Cell Modification]** A. a. b. c. d. B. a. C. a. b. c. d. **[Specialized Cells]** 1. 2. 3. **Lesson 2:** **[Cell Division]-** multiplication & division of cells, used for the growth of a multicellular organism and to replace old or damaged cells **Chromosomes-** structure found inside the nucleus, carries genetic information. **Ploidy-** set of chromosomes in a cell A. B. **Homologues-** identical chromosome set **Centrosome-** small organelle found in nucleus-- produces microtubules **Spindle fibers-** microtubules separate chromosomes to form 2 daughter cells **Centrisoles-** cylindrical organelles involved in cell organization **[Cell Cycle:]** **Interphase-** divided into 3 stages: G1, synthesis, G2-- DNA is uncondensed **Miotic/M phase-** 4 stages + cytokinesis (Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase and cytokinesis). Nucleus and cytoplasm divides-- DNA becomes condensed **[Stages of Interphase:]** 1. - - 2. - - 3. - - - - **[Stages of Mitotic Phase:]** 1. - - - 2. - - - 3. - - - 4. - - - - 5. - - - **CDKs(Cyclin-dependent kinase)-** a type of protein kinases that regulate transcription and mRNA processing **Cylins-** proteins that control the progression of the cell cycle by activating CDK enzymes **[Uncontrolled Mitosis]** **Cancer cells-** cells divide even with a mutation and keep on dividing, bypassing the checkpoints (G1 and G2). Two types: A. B. **Oncogenes-** proteins that increase the chance of forming cancer cells **[Meiosis-]** uses sexual reproduction to multiply. Sex cells are haploid chromatids. Once an egg is fertilized, it combines forming 2n **Stages of Meiosis 1:** 1. - - - - - 2. - - 3. - - - 4. - - 5. - **Stages of Meiosis 2:** 1. - 2. - 3. - 4. - 5. - 6. - **[Nondisjunction-]** A pair of homologous chromosomes failed to separate during anaphase A. B. **[Structural Chromosome Abnormalities]** 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. **[Numerical Chromosome Abnormalities]** 1. 2. 3.
