What are the main ideas of the cell theory? Select 2.

1

What are the advantages of using light microscopes? Select all that apply.

1

What are the disadvantages of using electron microscopes?

1

Diffusion is efficient at < um. As cells increase in size, increases more than . The distance from the to the influences the rate of movement of intermediates, waste products etc. Thus, cells must be to ensure this movement is efficient.

1

Which component of the cell removes diffusion as the transport mechanism to overcome size limitation?

1

Check all the features of a eukaryotic cell

1

Viruses can only replicate using the protein synthesis mechanisms of host cells

1

The nucleus is surrounded by a double membrane called the which surrounds the internal environment. allow entry and exit of materials such as mRNA. The nucleus retains genetic information in the form of .

1

Check the processes that occur in the smooth endoplasmic reticulum

1

A xenobiotic is a chemical product in an organism that would be expected to be present there

1

What is the name of the folds formed by the inner membrane of the mitochondria?

1

A peroxisome is a sac found in the containing which carry out of VLCFA and amino acids to . It has electron density.

1

When peroxisomes VLCFA and amino acids to , the hydrogen peroxide must be removed because it is . Thus, peroxisomes also contain enzymes. These enzymes convert hydrogen peroxide to and water. This ensures safe .
