Exam 20: Eukaryotic Cell Biology and Eukaryotic Microorganisms

Describe the differences between the algae and the cyanobacteria.

The amoebozoa use what structure for movement and feeding?

Because hydrogenosomes lack an electron transport system and usually lack the citric acid cycle, they cannot oxidize acetate produced from pyruvate catabolism.

The eukaryotic cell structures that beat in synchrony to propel the cell are called _ , and the structures that propel the cell along through a whiplike motion are known as .

The complement of intracellular structures present in any given eukaryotic cell is highly dependent on the cell type.

The phylogeny of Eukarya was deduced from comparative sequencing of _.

Compare and contrast the life cycles of the cellular and the acellular slime molds.

Fungi are generally more significant as animal pathogens than are bacteria and viruses.

Silica is a characteristic cell wall component of the , which are a type of algae.

The series of folded internal membranes formed by invaginations of the inner membrane of the mitochondrion are known as .

In general, the Golgi complex is responsible for the chemical modification and sorting of products produced in the endoplasmic reticulum.

Which of the following is NOT a member of the Eukarya?

Slime molds are phylogenetically similar to both fungi and protists.

Explain why a eukaryotic cell needs membrane- enclosed lysosomes and peroxisomes.

Phototrophic eukaryotes use water as a photosynthetic electron donor.

The membrane- enclosed compartments that contain digestive enzymes in eukaryotic cells are called
