Controls what enters and leaves the cell. Cell- smallest unit of an organism that can carry on life functions Tissues- a group of similar cells that all do the same work Organ- a group of tissues working together to do a certain job Organ systems- a group of organs that work together Digestion System Circulatory System Circulates blood around the body via the heart, arteries and veins, Path of Digestion delivering oxygen and nutrients to organs 1. The Mouth – Grinds food and cells and carrying their waste products 2. Esophagus – lets food pass through to the stomach away. 3. Stomach – stores swallowed food and liquid, mixes the food and liquid with digestive juice it produces, and Three Blood Vessels Arties – carry blood away from the heart slowly empties its contents, called chyme, into the small intestine. Veins – transport blood that contains CO2 4. Small Intestine – mix food with digestive juices from back to your heart Capillaries – enables oxygen to move the pancreas, liver, and intestine and absorbs the throughout the circulatory system digested nutrients into the bloodstream 5. Large Intestine - absorbs water and any remaining Gas exchange occurs between the Alveoli nutrients and changes the waste from liquid into stool. Spaces of the lungs and Capillaries in the 6. Rectum – stores stool until it pushes stool out of the circulatory system body during a bowel movement. Digestion System: The Accessory Organs The liver makes bile that breaks down food during the digestion process and removes waste from the blood and breaks down protein. The live removes waster in the form of urine. The pancreas produces a juice containing several enzymes that break down carbohydrates, fats, and proteins in food. The gallbladder stores bile between meals.

Microfossil dataindicate that Mid ^Late Ordovicianland plants possessed such alifecycle, and that the originof alternationof generationspreceded this date.Molecular phylogenetic data unambiguously relate charophyceangreen algae to the ancestryof monophyletic embryophytes, and identify bryophytes as early-divergentland plants. Comparison of reproduction in charophyceans and bryophytes suggests that the followingstages occurredduring evolutionary origin of embryophytic alternation of generations: (i) originof oogamy;(ii) retention ofeggsand zygotes on the parentalthallus; (iii) originof matrotrophy (regulatedtransfer ofnutritional and morphogenetic solutes fromparental cells tothe nextgeneration); (iv)origin of a multicellularsporophyte generation ;and(v) origin of non-£ agellate, walled spores. Oogamy,egg/zygoteretention andmatrotrophy characterize at least some moderncharophyceans, and arepostulated to represent pre-adaptativefeatures inherited byembryophytes from ancestral charophyceans.Matrotrophy is hypothesizedto have preceded originof the multicellularsporophytes of plants,and to represent acritical innovation.Molecular

    Brown Algae and 4) the Oomycetes (Water Molds)

    Protista Classification Excavata The kingdom Protista (in the five kingdom system) contains mostly unicellular eukaryotes. This taxonomic grouping is polyphyletic and based only Alveolates on cellular structure and life styles not on any molecular evidence. Using molecular biology and detailed comparison of cell structure, scientists are now beginning to see evolutionary SAR Stramenopila history in the protists. The ongoing changes in the protest phylogeny are rapidly changing with each new piece of evidence. The following classification suggests 4 “supergroups” within the Rhizaria original Protista kingdom and the taxonomy is still being worked out. This lab is looking at one current hypothesis shown on the right. Some of the organisms are grouped together because Archaeplastida of very strong support and others are controversial. It is important to focus on the characteristics of each clade which explains why they are grouped together. This lab will only look at the groups that Amoebozoans were once included in the Protista kingdom and the other groups (higher plants, fungi, and animals) will be Unikonta examined in future labs. Opisthokonts Protista Classification Excavata Starting with the four “Supergroups”, we will divide the rest into different levels called clades. A Clade is defined as a group of Alveolates biological taxa (as species) that includes all descendants of one common ancestor. Too simplify this process, we have included a cladogram we will be using throughout the SAR Stramenopila course. We will divide or expand parts of the cladogram to emphasize evolutionary relationships. For the protists, we will divide Rhizaria the supergroups into smaller clades assigning them artificial numbers (clade1, clade2, clade3) to establish a grouping at a specific level.

    Primary and Secondary Plant Cell Walls: a Comparative Overview*

    36 New Zealand Journal of Forestry Science 36(1) PRIMARY AND SECONDARY PLANT CELL WALLS: A COMPARATIVE OVERVIEW* PHILIP J. HARRIS School of Biological Sciences, The University of Auckland Private Bag 92019, Auckland, New Zealand [email protected] (Received for publication 23 November 2005; revision 3 February 2006) ABSTRACT Light and transmission electron microscopy are used in studying wall morphology and histochemical methods, including immunocytochemistry, can be used to locate specific compounds in walls. All plant cell walls contain a fibrillar phase of cellulose microfibrils and a matrix phase which contains a high proportion of non-cellulosic polysaccharides that vary in their chemical structures, depending on wall type and plant taxon. The non-cellulosic polysaccharide compositions of three common wall types — lignified secondary walls, non-lignified secondary walls, and non-lignified primary walls — exemplify this. The principles used in constructing the most recent models of non-lignified primary walls can be used in modelling lignified secondary walls. Keywords: primary cell walls; secondary cell walls; cell-wall models; non- cellulosic polysaccharides; transmission electron microscopy; light microscopy; chemistry; lignified walls; immuno- cytochemistry; histochemistry INTRODUCTION This review provides a brief comparative overview of primary and secondary cell walls of seed plants. A primary wall is defined as a wall that is deposited while the cell is still enlarging, whereas a secondary wall is deposited on the primary wall after cell expansion has stopped, and can be seen in sections as a structurally distinct layer (or layers) that is often very much thicker than the primary wall (Harris 2005a). At maturity, the different cell types can be grouped according to whether they have only a primary wall or both a primary and a secondary wall.

    Chloroplasts Are the Food Producers of the Cell. the Organelles Are Only Found in Plant Cells and Some Protists Such As Algae

    Name: ___________________________ Cell #2 H.W. due September 22nd, 2016 Period: _________ Chloroplasts are the food producers of the cell. The organelles are only found in plant cells and some protists such as algae. Animal cells do not have chloroplasts. Chloroplasts work to convert light energy of the Sun into sugars that can be used by cells. It is like a solar panel that changes sunlight energy into electric energy. The entire process is called photosynthesis and it all depends on the little green chlorophyll molecules in each chloroplast. In the process of photosynthesis, plants create sugars and release oxygen (O2). The oxygen released by the chloroplasts is the same oxygen you breathe every day. Chloroplasts are found in plant cells, but not in animal cells. The purpose of the chloroplast is to make sugars that feed the cell’s machinery. Photosynthesis is the process of a plant taking energy from the Sun and creating sugars. When the energy from the Sun hits a chloroplast and the chlorophyll molecules, light energy is converted into the chemical energy. Plants use water, carbon dioxide, and sunlight to make sugar and oxygen. During photosynthesis radiant energy or solar energy or light energy is transferred into chemical energy in the form of sugar (glucose). You already know that during photosynthesis plants make their own food. The food that the plant makes is in the form of sugar that is used to provide energy for the plant. The extra sugar that the plant does not use is stored as starch for later use. Mitochondria are known as the powerhouses of the cell.
