Nucleus | Daniel Van Dyne





Nucleus



Function/Main Ideas
The most important function of the nucleus is that it holds the cells DNA
The nucleus also makes exact copies of the DNA
The nucleus also holds the cells RNA
The nucleus makes protein and sends them out to make protein
The nucleus is secure by double membrane envelope

Reflection

The nucleus is very important in cells and we wouldn't have genetic coding or proteins if it weren't for it. I learned that it made ribosomes which helped me understand where they came from. I thought that the nucleus had more roles than just DNA, RNA, and ribosomes but that is mainly what it does.

    This is really well organized, you could improve on facts. The reflection is very well put together and it shows that you learned something, also that you retained the information that you wrote down. Good job.

    I like how you set up your post, it was really easy to read. Your reflection was very understandable, and it goes to show that you learned something throughout the unit. I think that you could of put a better visual and also looked back in your notes for your facts but out standing job.

    Your information was very well organized. your reflection was short and simple. I would say you need a bit more information.

Anaerobic Energy Production - MORGAN BANKS

Image
ANAEROBIC ENERGY PRODUCTION  Anaerobic Energy Production is one form of Cellular Respiration  This form requiers no oxygen  Is used for a fast burst of energy Occurs mostly in prokaryotes cells  Fermentation 1- lactic acid (makes muscles sore)  2- Alocholic REFLECTION - Anaerobic Production has no oxygen, therefore many of the things we do, do not involve anaerobic production! It involves the aerobic energy production. This is not only a good review for you but for me as well on how to justify the two.  http://slideplayer.com/slide/9078035/ MORE INFO: http://www.diffen.com/difference/Aerobic_Respiration_vs_Anaerobic_Respiration VIDEO/QUIZ:  http://study.com/academy/lesson/anaerobic-exercise-definition-benefits-examples.html

Genetic Variation: Mutations

Image
What is a mutation? A mutation is any change in the DNA sequence.  There are three types of mutations: * addition: One or more nucleotide base pairs are inserted into a DNA sequence (also called frameshift mutation)  *deletion: The removal of one or more nucleotides in a DNA sequence (also called frameshift mutation) *substitution: A mutation that exchanges one or more bases for another (also called point mutation) How do they occur & why? Mutations for randomly, but different mutations occur different ways.  Most of the time a mutation comes from radiation (so like the sun, X-rays, tanning salons, etc). Some mutations can be genetic though, like autism. Autism is caused when theres an extra chromosome. Another common mutation would be cancer. Cancer occurs when cells uncontrollably grow, and don't die.  Can it be prevented?  Unfortunately, mutations are random. The best way to prevent them is to protect yoursel...
