More than 100 years ago, microbiologist Paul Ehrlich talked about his concept of the ideal antibiotic as a "magic bullet" that could kill harmful bacteria but have minimal side effects for the infected person. How do antibiotics accomplish this goal?

by targeting structures found only in bacterial cells and not the host cells

One difference between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells is that eukaryotic cells ______ prokaryotic cells.

have membrane-enclosed structures called organelles, which are lacking in Submit

Functions of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum include ________.

lipid synthesis, protein synthesis, and drug detoxification

Based on its function in detoxifying drugs, one would expect to find a large amount of smooth endoplasmic reticulum in ________ cells.

liver

Which organelle plays a role in intracellular digestion?

lysosome

Using the figure for a reference, approximately how many times larger is the smallest bacteria compared to an atom?

10 times larger

Cellular respiration can be described as the conversion of the energy ________.

stored in ATP to energy used to do work

Which part(s) of a cell is (are) most like the shipping center of a company?

the Golgi apparatus

In eukaryotic cells the first step in protein synthesis is the _____.

translation of an RNA nucleotide sequence into a sequence of amino acids

Suppose you are designing an antibiotic that specifically targets prokaryotic cells. Which labeled structure in the figure below should you target such that the antibiotic only affects prokaryotic cells?

Plasma membrane

Tay-Sachs disease results from ______ lacking a specific type of lipid-digesting enzyme.

lysosomes

A. Over time, bacteria have become increasingly resistant to antibiotics. Which of the following best explains this in terms of natural selection? B. Which of the following correctly describes what the video referred to as a "microbial cure"? C. In the projected video showing the growth of bacteria, why did the bacteria grow up to the edge of the area with antibiotics, pause, then continue to grow across the area with antibiotics? D. Which of the following contributes the LEAST to the problem of antibiotic resistance? E. A particular antibiotic kills 99% of a bacterial population. What will be the result of the continued application of this antibiotic? F. What is the concern about using antibacterial and antimicrobial soaps? G. In the video, what does the UK's Chief Medical Officer suggest for promoting the development of new antibiotics?

A. Bacteria that happen to have natural resistance to antibiotics survived and reproduced. Submit B. Antibiotics are used to kill all of the infectious bacteria in a person. Submit C. A few bacteria experienced random mutations in their DNA, which allowed some of them to grow even though antibiotics were present. D. taking the entire course of antibiotics as prescribed by the doctor E. Every time the antibiotic is given, it will kill 99% of the bacterial population. F. The use of any chemical that kills bacteria can eventually lead to resistance to that chemical in the population of bacteria. Submit G. encouraging big pharmaceutical companies to start investing again in new drug research and development

Read the following scenario to answer the following question. The earliest cells detectable in fossils were different from the cells in animals, plants, fungi, and protists living today. These first prokaryotic cells gave rise to eukaryotic cells approximately 1.7 billion years ago. The structure of eukaryotic cells today suggests how they might have evolved from their prokaryotic ancestors. Scientists examining mitochondria and chloroplasts now think that these organelles were probably free-living prokaryotes before becoming a part of eukaryotic cells long ago. What evidence suggests that mitochondria might have evolved before chloroplasts?

Almost all eukaryotes have mitochondria but only some cells have chloroplasts. Submit

Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare genetic disease. Affected individuals exhibit impaired functioning of ciliated cells. Based on what you know about the role of cilia in eukaryotic cells, why would you expect people with PCD to be particularly susceptible to respiratory infections?

Cilia are responsible for clearing bacteria and mucus from the linings of your airways. Submit

Read the following scenario to answer the following question. The first prokaryotic cells gave rise to eukaryotic cells approximately 1.7 billion years ago. The structure of eukaryotic cells today suggests how they might have evolved from their prokaryotic ancestors. Scientists examining mitochondria and chloroplasts now think that these organelles were probably free-living prokaryotes before becoming a part of eukaryotic cells long ago. Which characteristic of mitochondria suggests they might have evolved from free-living bacteria?

Mitochondria have their own DNA.

Read the following scenario to answer the following question.Different species of bacteria are resistant to different types of antibiotics. For example, one species of bacteria may be resistant to an antibiotic that targets bacterial ribosomes but may not be resistant to a different antibiotic that targets bacterial cell walls. In order to figure out what type of antibiotic(s) a species of bacteria was resistant to, a researcher treated the bacteria with four different antibiotics (A, B, C, and D) and measured how many bacteria were alive over the course of a few weeks. The data that she collected are summarized below. Why do bacteria numbers start to decline when treated with antibiotic C but then begin to increase as time goes on?

Some bacteria with resistance to antibiotic C were selected for over time.

The nuclear envelope is composed of ______.

a double membrane
