BIOL 120 Lecture Notes - Lecture 1: Endoplasmic Reticulum, Chromosome Segregation, Peripheral Membrane Protein
Document Summary
Biology 120. 3 chapter learning objectives 2015-16. All cells share some common structures/characteristics (unity), but there are some differences between cells within and between different organisms (diversity). Definitions cell, nucleic acids, dna, rna, microscopy, illumination, magnification, resolution, plasma membrane, bilayer, hydrophobic, gene, cytosol, cytoplasm, organelle, cytoskeleton, prokaryote, eukaryote, nucleus, nucleoid, messenger rna (mrna), ribosomal rna (rrna), ribosome, atp, flagellum, pilus. Identify how cell theory underlies topics in biology. Compare and contrast light microscopy and electron microscopy. Describe the basic structure and function of the plasma membrane. Describe what is meant by the term organelle, and the purpose and significance of such structures in eukaryotic cells. Describe the structure and functions of organelles discussed in this chapter (including the nucleus; rough endoplasmic reticulum, smooth endoplasmic reticulum; golgi complex; lysosomes; mitochondria; chloroplasts). Explain the relationship (and connections) between the plasma membrane, endoplasmic reticulum, and golgi complex in eukaryotic cells.
