They contain a semifluid substance called the cytosol/cytoplasm. They contain structures called chromosomes, which carry the cell's genes. They have ribosomes, which assemble amino acids into proteins. Eukaryotes vs. Prokaryotes Slide 6 / 192 There are 3 key differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Eukaryotic cells are usually larger than prokaryotic cells. Eukaryotic cells have small compartments inside them call organelles. Most eukaryotes (but not all) are multi-cellular organisms.

Slide 8 (nswer) / 192 Yes No nswer No Prokaryotes: 2 Types Slide 9 / 192 acteria rchaea We Rely on acteria! Slide 10 / 192 Often we think of bacteria as being primarily harmful organisms. While there are harmful bacteria, most are beneficial; we depend on them. acteria cover all the external surfaces of our bodies. This includes our digestive tracts since that is also considered to be external. acteria live in cooperation with you; they protect you against harmful bacteria and help you digest food. Without these bacteria, which have evolved with us, as we evolved, we could not live healthy lives.

5 We Rely on acteria! Slide 11 / 192 In fact, the number of bacterial cells living on us is greater than the number of our own cells. Those bacteria have more unique genetic material than do our own genes. That bacterial genetic material allows them to create enzymes or products that are essential to us. bacteria on skin - National Geographic Magazine We Rely on acteria! Slide 12 / 192 Newborn babies get innoculations of these bacteria from their mothers, so that their digestive systems can function. There are also bacteria in many food sources, like yogurt and cheese. ntibiotics Slide 13 / 192 When we take antibiotics to fight a harmful bacteria, it's usually recommended to consume probiotics, such as yogurt, to replace any of our helpful bacteria that might be accidentally harmed. In fact, most antibiotics themselves are derived from bacteria. They are created in nature by bacteria to fight other bacteria. When then use them in the form of antibiotic pills or injections to fight harmful bacteria.

6 rchaea Slide 14 / 192 rchaea were classified as bacteria until very recently. In 1977, they were separated from bacteria into their own domain, or grouping. rchaea Many archaea are extremophiles, organisms that live in environments where life had been considered impossible. They have be found living in areas of extreme temperature (such as hydrothermal vents), ph solutions of lower than 3 and higher than 9, and solutions with high salt, methane, or heavy metal concentrations. rchaea While archaea have many cell structures and metabolic pathways in common with bacteria, research has shown that their genes and factors involved in their gene expression are more like those of eukaryotes (the class of organisms that include animals, plants, and fungi). Slide 15 / 192 This has led scientists to believe that archaea developed after bacteria. LU ( Y) 3 The earliest living organisms were probably: Slide 16 / 192 animals archaea bacteria plants

8 Order/Organization Slide 18 / 192 ll prokaryotes are unicellular, meaning a single cell is considered an entire organism. They can live on their own, but most form colonies, large groups (millions, billions or more) live in a tightly packed area. They have a variety of shapes and functions. Prokaryotic Shapes Slide 19 / 192 Structures Slide 20 / 192 Prokaryotes have many different structures, each having a specific job or function. These structures within the cell operate like small molecular machines. They are used for various functions that help maintain the life of the overall organism.

9 ell Surface Slide 21 / 192 Most prokaryotes have a cell wall. The cell wall is outside the cell's plasma membrane and maintains the cell's shape, provides physical protection, and prevents the cell from bursting in a hypotonic environment. In bacteria, this cell wall is made of a strong carbohydrate fiber called peptidoglycan. In rchaea, various cell wall types exist. ell Surface Slide 22 / 192 The cell wall of some prokaryotes is covered by a capsule, a sticky layer of polysaccharide or protein. The cell wall and capsule are in addition to the plasma membrane, and are found covering it. They do not replace it. Flagella Slide 23 / 192 Most motile prokaryotes propel themselves by flagella, a tail-like protein structure. This allows these prokaryotes to exhibit taxis, the ability to move toward or away from certain stimuli. hemotaxis is movement in response to chemicals in the environment. Phototaxis is movement in response to light. Interesting note: Flagellum is the latin word for whip.

10 Pili Slide 24 / 192 Pili are thin, protein tubes originating from the prokaryotic cell membrane. There are two basic types of pili: short attachment pili, also known as fimbriae, that are usually quite numerous - fimbriae allow cells to attach to other cells or to inanimate objects. long conjugation pili, also called "F" or sex pili that are few in number - sex pili allow bacteria to transfer genetic information from one cell to another fimbriae 5 What structure allows a prokaryote to adhere to environmental surfaces? cell wall sex pili flagellum fimbriae Slide 25 / What structure allows a prokaryote to adhere to environmental surfaces? cell wall sex pili flagellum fimbriae nswer Slide 25 (nswer) / 192

Floating in the cytoplasm are the ribosomes and the bacterial chromosome, a double-stranded, circular structure containing the prokaryote's N. Prokaryotes usually only have one chromosome and the area where it is located is known as the nucleoid. Plasmids Slide 29 / 192 Many prokaryotes also have plasmids, smaller circular N molecules that are independent of the bacterial chromosome. Plasmids contain genes for adaptations like resistance against antibiotics, making a sex-pilus (F-pilus), making toxins, and guarding against heavy metal toxicity.

13 F Plasmids Slide 30 / 192 The presence of an F plasmid (or an F factor) gives the prokaryotic cell the ability to have fertility, by forming a sex pilus. This allows the prokaryote to donate N to other prokaryotes in its colony, increasing their genetic variability. Note: The "F" factor is located in the bacterial chromosome. R Plasmids Slide 31 / 192 R plasmids give a bacteria cell antibiotic resistance. ntibiotic resistance gives the bacterial cell immunity to certain types of antibiotics. When a bacterial population is exposed to an antibiotic, individuals with the R plasmid will survive and increase in the overall population. 8 Which is the shape of a bacterial chromosome?

17 Slide 37 / 192 bacterial chromosome capsule cell membrane ribosome nucleoid cell wall flagella fimbriae Prokaryotic Reproduction Slide 38 / 192 Prokaryotic cells divide and reproduce by binary fission, the splitting of one cell into two. In order for each cell to have a complete copy of the N, the bacterial chromosome must be replicated prior to cell division. inary Fission Slide 39 / 192 fter the chromosome is replicated, the cell divides in half with one copy in each new cell.

19 Surface rea to Volume Ratio Slide 42 / 192 t the time when prokaryotic cells were evolving, there were most likely different sizes of cells. cell's efficiency and ability to survive depended on its surface area to volume ratio. The volume of the cell determines the amount of chemical activity it can carry out per unit time. The surface area of the cell determines the amount of substances the cell can take in from the environment and the amount of waste it can release. s a cell grows in size, it's surface area to volume ratio decreases. It performs chemical reactions faster, but it has a harder time getting nutrients in and waste out. Limits of ell Size Slide 43 / 192 We know that cells need to be small enough so that they have an increased surface area to volume ratio, but be large enough to perform the chemical reactions of metabolism. Most Efficient Least Efficient The smaller the cell, the larger its surface area and the smaller its volume. The bigger the cell, the smaller the surface area is compared to its large volume inside. ell Size Eukaryotic cells are, on average, much larger than prokaryotic cells. The average diameter of most prokaryotic cells is between 1 and 10µm. y contrast, most eukaryotic cells are between 5 to 100µm in diameter. Slide 44 / 192 nimal ell (Eukaryote) acterium (Prokaryote)

20 Organelles Slide 45 / 192 To increase efficiency in the larger cell, eukaryotes evolved many bacterium-sized parts known as organelles. Organelles subdivide the cell into specialized compartments. They play many important roles in the cell. Some transport waste to the cell membrane. Others keep the molecules required for specific chemical reactions located within a certain compartment so they do not need to diffuse long distances to be useful. Organelles Slide 46 / 192 Organelles making up Eukaryotic cells include: Nucleus Lysosomes Ribosomes Peroxisome s Mitochondria Vacuoles Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum hloroplasts Golgi pparatus 14 How did eukaryotes solve the problem of diffusion?

It increases the efficiency of chemical reactions. It decreases the speed of reactions since reactants have to travel farther. Substrates required for particular reactions can be localized and maintained at high concentrations within organelles. 15 Which is NOT an advantage of compartmentalization?

22 Multicellular Organisms Slide 49 / 192 Even with organelles, the size of the cell is limited to about 1000µm 3. This is why large organisms must consist of many smaller cells. iversity of Eukaryotes Slide 50 / 192 Protists: The first eukaryotic cells. Protists are single-celled eukaryotes. They range from protozoans to algae. Fungi: These organisms evolved second in time along with plants. Examples include mushrooms, molds, and mildews. Plants: Plants vary in type from the first plants called mosses to the modern flowering plants. nimals: nimals were the last eukaryotes to evolve. nimals range from ancient sponges and hydra to primates. 16 How did eukaryotes solve the problem of small surface area to volume ratio? by remaining the same size as prokaryotes by becoming multicellular organisms by compartmentalizing functions into organelles they haven't solved the problem Slide 51 / 192

24 The Nucleus Slide 53 / 192 The defining organelle in eukaryotic cell is the nucleus. The nucleus of the cell contains the N and controls the cell's activities by directing protein synthesis from N. prokaryotes: pro: before karyon: kernel/seed (nucleus) eukaryote: eu: true karyon: kernel/seed (nucleus) So prokaryote = "before a nucleus" nd eukaryote = "true nucleus" Inside the Nucleus Slide 54 / 192 The nucleus is enclosed by a double cell membrane structure called the nuclear envelope. The nuclear envelope has many openings called nuclear pores. Nuclear pores help the nucleus "communicate" with other parts of the cell. Inside the nucleus is a dense region known as the nucleolus. The nucleolus is where rrn is made and ribosomes are assembled. They then exit through the nuclear pores. 3 Main Functions of the Nucleus Slide 55 / To keep and contain a safe copy of all chromosomes (N) and pass them on to daughter cells in cell division. 2. To assemble ribosomes (specifically in the nucleolus). 3. To copy N instructions into RN (via transcription).

27 Ribosomes Slide 59 / 192 Recall that the ribosome is made of rrn and proteins. This is where translation occurs. Ribosomes consist of two subunits, a small and a large. Each subunit consists of proteins and rrn. The two subunits come together when proteins need to be made. Small subunit Large subunit Ribosomes Slide 60 / 192 Recall ribosomes make peptide bonds between amino acids in translation. The instructions for making ribosomes are in the N. From N, rrn is made. Some of the rrn is structural and other rrn holds the code from the N to make the ribosomal proteins from mrn. transcription translation N mrn Protein Ribosomes Slide 61 / 192 Two types of ribosomes exist in eukaryotic cells: free ribosomes and bound ribosomes. ound ribosomes are attached to internal membranes in the cell's endomembrane system. Free ribosomes move freely through the cytoplasm and produce proteins and enzymes used internally by the cell.

28 The Endomembrane System Slide 62 / 192 Several organelles, some made up mainly of membranes, form a type of assembly line in the cell. They make a protein, then process and ship it to its final destination in the cell membrane or outside the cell. Organelles included in this system include the nucleus, rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum, golgi appartus, and lysosomes. ollectively, we refer to them as the endomembrane system. Note: The plasma membrane is also considered part of this system The Endomembrane System Slide 63 / 192 Endoplasmic Reticulum Slide 64 / 192 When RN leaves the nucleus, it enters the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). This organelle is a series of membrane-bound sacs and tubules. It is continuous with the outer membrane of the nuclear envelope (reticulum comes from the latin word for little net). There are two types of endoplasmic reticulum: rough and smooth

29 Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum Slide 65 / 192 Rough ER has ribosomes attached to its membrane (thus a rough appearance). These ribosomes synthesize proteins that will be used in the plasma membrane, secreted outside the cell or shipped to another organelle called a lysosome. s proteins are made by the ribosomes, they enter the lumen (opening) of the ER where they are folded and processed. Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum Slide 66 / 192 This type of ER is called Smooth because it lacks ribosomes on its surface. (it looks smooth compared to rough ER) There are a variety of functions of this organelle, which include: making lipids. processing certain drugs and poisons absorbed by the cell. storing calcium ions (for example, in muscle cells). Note: The liver is an organ that detoxifies substances that are brought into the body. Therefore, liver cells have huge amounts of Smooth ER 21 Where are ribosomal subunits made in the cell?

Slide 69 (nswer) / 192 free ribsomes nucleus nswer rough endoplasmic reticulum smooth endoplasmic reticulum Protein Transport Slide 70 / 192 Once the proteins are processed, short chains of sugars are sometimes linked to these proteins, which are then known as glycoproteins. These glycoproteins serve as "zip codes" that will tell the protein where it will go. When the molecule is ready to be exported out of the ER, it gets packaged into a transport vesicle. This vesicle is made of membranes from the ER itself. The transport vesicle travels to another organelle known as the Golgi apparatus.

32 Golgi pparatus Slide 71 / 192 The main function of this organelle is to finish, sort, and ship cell products. It works like the postal department of the cell. Structurally, the golgi consists of stacked flattened sacs (sort of looks like a stack of pita bread). Golgi pparatus Slide 72 / 192 The Golgi is located near the cell membrane. The Golgi works closely with the ER of a cell. It receives and modifies substances manufactured by the ER. Once the substances are modified, they are shipped out to other areas of the cell. One key difference between the Golgi apparatus and endoplasmic reticulum is that the sacs comprising the Golgi are not interconnected. The Golgi pparatus & the ER Slide 73 / 192 The Golgi receives transport vesicles that bud off from the ER and contain proteins. It takes the substances contained in these vesicles and modifies them chemically in order to mark them and sort them into different batches depending on their destination. The finished products are then packaged into new transport vesicles which will then move to lysosomes, or will be inserted into the plasma membrane or dumped out of the cell if the protein is a secretory protein.

(lyse: to cause destruction) They consist of hydrolytic enzymes enclosed within a membrane. Hydrolytic enzymes break polymers into monomers (hydrolysis). Lysosomes Slide 77 / 192 Lysosomes may fuse with food-containing organelles called vacuoles and then the enzymes digest the food, releasing nutrients into the cell. Protists do this. amaged or unneeded proteins may become enclosed within a membranous vesicle which then fuses with a lysosome. The organic molecules from the breakdown process are recycled and reused by the cell.

35 Peroxisomes Slide 78 / 192 peroxisome is a specific type of lysosome that forms and breaks down hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) which is toxic to cells. In all cells, hydrogen peroxide forms constantly (from the combining of hydrogen and oxygen as bi-products of metabolism) and needs to be broken down quickly. Important note: Peroxisomes are not part of the endomembrane system. 26 Which organelle contains hydrolytic enzymes that break down other substances?

Slide 81 / 192 Some proteins from the golgi apparatus become embedded in the membrane. Others are transported through the membrane to the external environment.

39 30 Which of the following processes includes all others? Slide 85 (nswer) / 192 passive transport facilitated diffusion diffusion of a solute across a membrane osmosis nswer Large Molecules and the Plasma Membrane Slide 86 / 192 Many proteins created by the cell are too large to pass through the membrane, even using protein carrier or integral proteins. How do these macromolecules exit the cell? Then, the substance uses other ways of getting into or out of a cell by fusing with the cell membrane. There are several special functions of the membrane as larger substances enter and exit the cell. To excrete a macromolecule from the cell, the vesicles that enclose the proteins fuse with the plasma membrane and the vesicles then open up and spill their contents outside of the cell. Exocytosis Exocytosis Slide 87 / 192 This process is known as exocytosis. The vesicle will become part of the cell membrane. This is how secretory proteins from the Golgi exit the cell. This is true for insulin in the pancreas.

40 Insulin - Secretory Protein Slide 88 / 192 Insulin is a protein hormone made by certain cells of the pancreas that enable cells to take glucose (sugar) in from the blood. Insulin is a secretory protein made in the rough ER. Specifically, it is secreted out of the pancreas cells into the blood stream. Endocytosis Slide 89 / 192 The opposite of exocytosis is endocytosis. In this process, the cell takes in macromolecules or other particles by forming vesicles or vacuoles from its plasma membrane. This is how many protists ingest food particles 3 Types of Endocytosis Slide 90 / 192

41 3 Types of Endocytosis Slide 91 / 192 Phagocytosis is for taking in solid particles. ("phago" mean to eat) Pinocytosis is for taking in liquids. However what the cell wants is not the liquid itself, but the substances that are dissolved in the liquid. ("pino" means to drink) Receptor-mediated endocytosis requires the help of a protein coat and receptor on the membrane to get through. 31 The process by which a cell ingests large solid particles; it is known as "cell eating".

Mitochondria reside in all eukaryotic cells and convert chemical energy from glucose into TP. Interestingly, both chloroplasts and mitochondria have their own N, separate from that found in the nucleus of the cell. They also have a double cell membrane. hloroplasts Slide 96 / 192 These organelles convert solar energy to chemical energy through photosynthesis. hloroplasts are partitioned into three major compartments by internal membranes: Thylakoids Stroma Intermembrane space eukaryotic chloroplast

44 Thylakoids Slide 97 / 192 Remember that during photosynthesis it is on the thylakoid that the Light ependent Reactions take place. eukaryotic chloroplast In prokaryotes, thylakoids are areas of highly folded membranes. In eukaryotes, they are stacked in the chloroplasts. The fluid outside these stacks of thylakoids is called the stroma; this is where the alvin cycle takes place. Mitochondria Slide 98 / 192 Mitochondria are sometimes referred to as the "powerhouses" of the cell. They convert chemical energy (glucose) into a more usable and regenerative form of chemical energy (TP). The mitochondrion is also partitioned like the chloroplast. They only have two compartments as opposed to three in the chloroplast. Matrix Intermembrane space Mitochondria and Respiration Slide 99 / 192 Remember cell respiration must take place near a membrane so that a proton gradient can be built in a "membrane space" that is separate from the rest of the cell. Thus, the membrane would separate the inner volume, with a deficit of protons, from the outside, with an excess. In prokaryotes, the "inter-membrane space" is between the cell membrane and the cell wall. In eukaryotes, that membrane is the inter-membrane space of the mitochondria in between the inner membrane and outer membrane.

45 The Evolution of Eukaryotes Slide 100 / 192 The mitochondria and chloroplast are different from other eukaryotic organelles because they have their own N, their own ribosomes, and have a double cell membrane. In 1970, Lynn Margulis published the "Theory of Endosymbiosis" to explain these facts. The theory states that the mitochondria and chloroplast were once free-living prokaryotes that got taken up (or "eaten") by another prokaryote.

This is because the egg from our mothers contained her organelles. (ad's sperm only contains the chromosomes, none of his organelles usually). ll of our organelles we inherited from our mothers. Mitochondrial N is a way to trace maternal heritage through a family or through a species. The "Mitochondrial Eve" is the first human female that gave rise to all humans. In theory, we can trace all humans back to her through our mitochondrial N. 34 Which organelle converts food energy into chemical energy that the cell can use?

Slide 106 / 192 entral Vacuole PLNT ELL PROTIST entral Vacuoles Slide 107 / 192 entral Vacuoles in plants store water. bsorbing water makes a plant cell more turgid, or having more pressure inside - leading to strength and rigidity. entral vacuoles that are full will take over most of the cytoplasm and literally push the organelles to the sides of the cell. It can also store vital chemicals, pigments and waste products.

49 Turgor Pressure Slide 108 / 192 Increased turgor pressure results from the central vacuole being full with water. It presses out on the cell membrane which then presses out on the cell wall. The plant cell will not explode or lose its shape like an animal cell would in a hypotonic environment. When the turgor pressure decreases the cell is limp and droopy. This is associated with wilted, limp lettuce, as well as droopy flowers. ontractile Vacuoles Slide 109 / 192 ontractile vacuoles can be found in certain single-celled protists. These act as a pump to expel excess water from the cell. This is especially helpful to those organisms living in a freshwater environment to keep the cell from exploding.

Viruses can infect all types of organisms, though they are not organisms themselves. Viruses are particles that are considered non-living because they cannot perform all the functions of living things. However, they share the same genetic code and use the mechanism of host cells to reproduce. bacterial phage virus

55 Viruses Slide 122 / 192 In biology viruses are important because their genetic and reproductive strategies use the same molecular components but their use is unique. Scientists have learned a lot about genetics by understanding their strategies. In addition, their infectious nature makes them a threat that requires humans to understand how they work to create defensive technology. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) attacking a human lymphocyte cell Viruses Slide 123 / 192 The general mode of operation for all viruses is to Infect a host cell with its genetic information Hijack the molecular machinery of the host cell to manufacture the parts needed to build more viruses Package the parts together to form new viruses for release from the host cell This E. coli cell has been attacked by bacteriophage viruses and they have injected their genetic material into the bacterial cell Viral Reproductive ycles Slide 124 / 192 Viruses are obligate intracellular parasites, which means they can reproduce only within a host cell. Each virus has a host range; it is limited by type of host cells that it can infect. Viruses use enzymes, ribosomes, and other parts of the host cell to synthesize new viruses.

56 Lytic ycle The lytic cycle is a viral reproduction that causes the death of the host cell. The lytic cycle produces new phages and digests the host s cell wall, thereby releasing the new viruses. Slide 125 / 192 These cells have been broken open by the lytic cycle of a virus The Lytic ycle of a Phage Slide 126 / 192 step 1 Lysogenic ycle Unlike the lytic cycle which is detrimental to the host cell, the lysogenic cycle does not cause the cell to die. Slide 127 / 192 In the lysogenic cycle, the viruses N is incorporated into the host's N. Then the bacteria cell continues to replicate through binary fission, copying the viruses N and its own together.

57 Temperate Phages Many viruses are only able to utilize the lytic cycle. Slide 128 / 192 Some viruses, called temperate phages, can utilize both the lytic and lysogenic cycles. When a temperate phage switches from the lysogenic cycle to the lytic cycle, it separates its phage N from the host N and then proceeds through the steps of the lytic cycle as usual. However, sometimes when the virus N separate it takes with it some of the bacteria's N. 42 Viruses are not considered living things. Why? Slide 129 / 192 They do not have ribosomes They do not contain nucleic acids They do not metabolize They are infectious 42 Viruses are not considered living things. Why?

It does not contain N polymerase, so in order for it to reproduce it must inject its N into a cell so that it can be copied by the host cell's polymerase. The bacteriophage example we have seen is a N virus.

59 RN Viruses Slide 132 / 192 n RN virus is a virus that has RN as its genetic material. This nucleic acid is usually single-stranded RN (ssrn), but may be double-stranded RN (dsrn). Some human diseases caused by RN viruses include SRS, influenza, hepatitis, West Nile fever, polio and measles. SRS Slide 133 / 192 Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SRS) is a viral respiratory disease in humans. n outbreak of SRS in Hong Kong nearly became a pandemic, with 8,273 cases and 775 deaths worldwide. Within weeks, SRS spread from Hong Kong to infect individuals in 37 countries in early They are enveloped RN viruses that are pathogens of mammals and birds. This group of viruses cause respiratory tract infections in a variety of animals, including humans Retro Viruses Slide 134 / 192 retrovirus is an RN virus that replicates in a host cell. First it uses its own reverse transcriptase enzyme to produce N from its RN genome, reverse of the usual pattern, thus retro. This new N is then incorporated into the host's genome by an integrase enzyme. The cell then treats the viral N as part of its own instructions, which it follows blindly, making the proteins required to assemble new copies of the virus.

60 Retro Viruses Slide 135 / 192 These viruses are some of the most complex and believed to be the most advanced from an evolutionary perspective. For a virus, their entry system into cells is highly complex. They have systems to bypass the usual defenses of their host cell. HIV is a retro virus. HIV Slide 136 / 192 continued...

No immune attack is offered by the infected cells. The complex replication system is flawed and many errors are made as the virus replicates its genome. Why would this make treating with medicine difficult? Each patient has many unique variations of the virus in their system. treatment that may destroy one version will not destroy the others. In addition any attack on the virus must also be an atack on the immune system. 44 When a virus infects an E. coli cell, what part of the virus enters the bacterial cytoplasm?

64 Slide 144 / 192 Restriction Enzymes Slide 145 / 192 Restriction enzymes are now used by scientists to locate specific genes on a N molecules. N mixed with these enzymes is called digest a because the enzymes breaks down the fragments of N into many smaller pieces. It is important to remember that we are working with molecules. We cannot simply "grab" the piece of N we want. We must separate the unique pieces of N in the digest and select the fragment we want. This tube contains many different pieces of N Gene of interest is somewhere in here Gel Electrophoresis Slide 146 / 192 Gel electrophoresis is one way to separate N fragments based on length. The digest is loaded by pipet into a gel, that resembles Jello. The gel is a network of fibers called collagen. Small pieces of N can move through the gel quicker than the longer pieces that get tangled in the collagen fibers.

65 Gel Electrophoresis Slide 147 / 192 N has a slightly negative charge. n electrical current is passed through the gel and the N fragments move to the positive charge. Small fragments move faster, larger fragments are slowed down by the matrix. 15k 10k start The result is that the small pieces can travel farther than the larger ones. The N is separated by size in what is know as a banding pattern. 5k Insulin gene Virtual Lab Slide 148 / 192 Gel electrophoresis virtual lab by the University of Utah The Gel Lab nimal efenses Slide 149 / 192 nimals have multiple defenses against invaders. These are classified into two categories: innate immunity and acquired immunity. Innate immune defenses are generalized systems, preventing invasion by all pathogens. ll animals have some degree of innate immunity. cquired immune defenses are developed during the animal's lifetime and respond only to specific invaders, those that have been encountered previously. These defenses are only found in vertebrates.

66 Innate Immunity The skin is a barrier defense with unique adaptation to protect the body. Symbiotic bacteria crowds the surface of the skin making it hard for unwelcome bacteria to find room. Slide 150 / 192 Thick layer of dead cells in the epidermis creates a physical barrier. Sweat glands secrete waxy substances that pathogenic microbes have a hard time adhering to. It also has a ph of less than 6 which hurts pathogenic microbes. The dermis provides distance and insulation between major vessels of the blood stream and the external environment. Extracellular fluid and fats fill this area. Innate Immunity Slide 151 / 192 Where contact with the environment is necessary for the animal, skin cannot be used to block foreign contaminants. In these cases, another barrier defense the mucus membrane are used to stop pathogenic microbes from entering systems. Mucus cells secrete products that are rich in glycoproteins and water. It is a viscous fluid containing antiseptic enzymes that will breakdown bacterial and viral components. Innate Immunity Slide 152 / 192 In mammals, this mucus serves to protect: respiratory cells, gastrointestinal (digestive) cells, urogenital (vaginal) cells, visual cells, and auditory systems. major function of this mucus is to protect against infectious agents such as fungi, bacteria, and viruses.

72 Specific Immunity Slide 165 / 192 The specific immunity of vertebrates includes two types of response: Humoral: ttacking pathogens in the extracellular matrix, prior to entering a body cell ell-mediated: estroying body cells that have been infected by pathogens or have become cancerous. oth responses are derived from white blood cells known as lymphocytes. The Humoral Response Slide 166 / 192 ll pathogenic invaders have antigens, proteins that induce the release of antibodies because they are recognized as foreign to the organism being invaded. ntibodies are molecular flags that stick to the antigen and mark them for destruction by the immune system. This bacterial cell has many surface proteins that the mammalian immune system will recognize as non-self proteins. ny of them could act as an antigen. The Humoral Response Slide 167 / 192 The lymph system is responsible for the humoral immune response. This system is a series of vessels that filter and transport lymph, interstitial fluid that has been collected through lymph capillaries, throughout the organism. If an invading microbe makes it past the innate immunity defenses, it will then be in the interstitial fluid and enter the lymph system.

If the same invader ever enters the organism again it will be immediately tagged and destroyed. This is know as immune memory. The second exposure will be quickly handled by the immune system because many cells and antibodies are already circulating through the body. ell-mediated Response Slide 174 / 192 The last line of defense in the immune system.

80 Plant Immunity Slide 185 / 192 acteria and viruses are as much a threat to the homeostasis of plants as they are to animals. For this reason plants must also protect themselves and be able to fight foreign pathogens. Plants only have generalized defenses against pathogens. They do not have specific immunity. Much like invertebrates, the evolution of plants came long before specific immunity evolution on the tree of life. arrier efenses Slide 186 / 192 s with animals, the first line of defense against pathogens is the outer covering. Plants have varying levels of external defenses that can include waxy coatings, sticky excretions, thick cuticles and others. Plant Immunity Slide 187 / 192 Since plants have slow moving circulation systems (or no circulation at all), if a pathogen gets past the external covering individual cells are on their own to defend themselves. These spongy mesophyll cells each have an internal defense system that is triggered when contacted by a pathogen.
