Document Summary

Unicellular : consists of one cell that carries out all the functions of life. Multicellular : made up of a number of cells that are specialized for different functions. Species : group of organisms that look alike and can breed successfully with each other. Genome : sum of all dna molecules in the cell. Dna : long strands of 4 different subunits called nucleotides. Proteins : molecules that govern the chemical reaction within cells. Genome : all the genes in a complete haploid set of chromosomes. Nutrients : organisms get them from the ground, they supply energy. All organisms are related through a common ancestor. Prokaryotes : prokaryotic cell structure consists of dna and other biochemicals enclosed in a membrane. Metabolism : the sum total of all the chemical reactions that go on inside a cell constitutes the cell"s metabolism. Eukaryotes : cell structure consisting of specialized cellular functions, such as the nucleus which contained the cell"s genetic information.

Q1:Match the characteristic distinguishing living systems with its association/description below:

-Program

-Improvisation

-Compartmentalization

-Energy

-Regeneration

-Adaptability

-Seclusion

1)Maintenance of pathways and metabolic processes operate in isolation even though they are in the same compartment.

2)Breaking down products in order to synthesize new ones

3)Continuously replacement of damaged molecules

4)Organized plan for formation of organism

5)As the environment changes, the populations of organisms can change their programs to promote survival of organization

6)Creating conditions separate from environment, so chemistry can take place in specialized places or even specialized cells

7)Individual organisms can modify pathways/behaviors in response to changes in environment

Q2: Genomics is concerned with the location, expression, and function of individual genes, while genetics is concerns itself with analysis of the totality of genetic information.
