Biol 240 - UW - Final Exam Not very many proteins in the eukaryotic cytoplasmic membrane. Where did they go? - Answer -They are still in the membrane and they are still busy, but most of the proteins went to the mitochondrial membrane in eukaryotes. Cellulose and Chitin - Answer -Use specific b -1,4-glycosidic bonds between sugars provides strength and rigidity. In algae Fungi - Cell Wall - Answer -You have a NAG in chitin for cell walls in fungi. The cell wall is all NAGs Cytoskeleton Function - Answer -Involved in intracellular trafficking, motion, and cell division can be observed via fluorescent microscopy Axoneme Structure - Answer -Nine pairs of micro tubules and two more single microtubules in the middle (9 + 2 array) A new halophile in the dead sea was found. What will its cell wall look like? - Answer -It is an archaea so something with NAG and NAT What is the correct match for Tubulin? - Answer -FtsZ What is the correct match for Actin? - Answer -MreB What is the correct match for Plasmids? - Answer -ParM What is the correct match for Cellulose? - Answer -Algae Pseudopods - Answer -Small "false feet". Powered by actin and ATP for mobility Heterotrophic - Answer -A carbon eater Fungi - Answer -Heterotrophic; cell walls of chitin; used to make bread, beer, wine. Easy, cheap tool to study eukaryotic structures/gene expression Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been heavily studied. It is the model organism for what? - Answer -Fungi Fungi, Protozoa, and Slime Molds all use what type of metabolism? - Answer -Heterotrophic Algae uses what type of metabolism? - Answer -Phototrophic Which of the following may have pseudopods and often do not have cell walls? - Answer -Protozoa and Slime Molds Which of the following eukaryotes can be non -motile? - Answer -Fungi and Algae Which of the following eukaryotes can have flagella? - Answer -Protozoa and Algae Fungi - Chytridiomycota - Answer -Early branching, "watermolds", Laurel Creek banks Fungi - Zygomycota - Answer -Rhizopus, bread mold!, lab contamination Fungi - Glomeromycota - Answer -Mycorrhizal fungi. Extremely important for plants/trees. Fungi - Ascomycota - Answer -Called "spore shooters", cup/sac fungi, yeast Fungi - Basidiomycota - Answer -Called "spore droppers", "club fungi", traditional mushroom producing fungi Protozoa - Answer -As a whole, a (very) broad category. Some heterotrophic, some photosynthetic. Variable cell walls and different motility strategies. Different reproduction strategies Protzoa - Giardia Lamblia - Answer -Genetically "old", lacks mitochondria. Causes human disease (Giardia infection, Beaver Fever). Uses fermentation metabolism Slime Moulds - Model Organisms - Answer -Dictyostelium discoideum - NOT still protozoan. Model for studying ecology, cell motility, and cell -cell communication Physarum - Fuses many cells into a continuous, multinucleate giant cell Algae - Answer -Many are multicellular. All are photosynthetic with cellulose cell walls Chlamydomonas - Answer -The model organism for algae. Has a two -flagella form good for studying eukaryal flagella biogenesis/function. Durable and easy to grow. Use an "eye" spot in the cell (little red spot) to detect light and decide how close to sit to t he waters surface Replication of Eukaryotic Microorganisms - Answer -Life cycles are more complicated due to haploid/diploid states. Possibilities for sexual or asexual reproduction Mitosis - Answer -Basic cell division that produces two identical cells from one original cell Meiosis - Answer -Four haploid cells from one original diploid cell. The haploid cells are genetically diverse. One round of DNA replication followed by two rounds of cell division Genetic Recombination - Answer -Segregation of maternal/paternal chromosomes. A "crossing over" between chromosomes occurs prior to segregation, this ensures each haploid cell is genetically distinct Saccharomyces (Fungi) Life Cycle - Answer -Can undergo meiosis to form an ascus (skin bag, the ascus is for meiosis). Haploid mating types can fuse to reproduce sexually or be maintained by asexual mitosis. Not limited to ascus formation. Budding off of sma ller cells can occur or fission of identically sized cells. When the small cells bud off they leave scars behind on the larger cells Chlamydomonas (Algae) Life Cycle - Answer -Chlamydomonas maintains a motile haploid state. In favourable environments mitosis occurs. Haploid cells differentiate and fuse into a diploid form in bad conditions (spore formation) Dictyostelium (Slime Mould) Life Cycle - Answer -Exists in a haploid unicellular form until conditions worsen. Multicellular "slug" is formed with a stalk and a fruiting body. Spores form in the fruiting body, restarting the life cycle as haploid cells. Hap loid cells can fuse into a diploid macrocyst form. Macrocyst form undergoes meiosis to generate more haploid cells Beer. Wine. Bread. Cell Wall? - Answer -All NAGs Why does Dictoostelium generate macrocysts? - Answer -To generate large numbers of gametes that have new genetic combinations and minimizing the impact of detrimental genes Penicillin acts on what? - Answer -FtsI and Transpeptidation True or False - An axoneme is an array where nine pairs of microtubules are wrapped around a core pair of microtubules - Answer -True Endosymbiotic Theory - Answer -Life started 4.5 to 4 billion years ago, but eukaryotes appeared around 2.1 to 1.6 billion years ago. One primitive microorganism (archaea) engulfed/ingested another (bacteria, probably a proteobacteria), forming a symbiosis. At least two endosymbiotic events must have occurred (mitochondria, chloroplasts) Evidence for Endosymbiotic Theory - Answer -Mitochondria/chloroplasts resemble bacteria in both size and shape. Double membranes (host and bacterium) has all ester linkages. "Cell" division with FtsZ. Each has its own DNA, rRNA more similar to bacterial seq uences than eukaryal ones. Circular chromosome Evidence for Endosymbiotic Theory - Exception - Answer -Amitochondriates lack mitochondria. Cells likely evolved out of using them to obtain energy (Giardia is an example) Endosymbiosis in Modern Cells - Answer -Two cells together are better than one alone. When amoebas were infected with x -bacteria, most of the amoebas died, but some survived Endosymbiosis Experiment - Answer -Hypothesis - Viable bacteria remained inside the surviving amoebas Experiment - Treat amoebas with antibiotics
