Prokaryotic Cell
A cell that does not have its genetic material in a nucleus
13 of 38
Eukaryotic Cell
A cell which has its genetic material in a nucleus
14 of 38
Plasmid
Loop of DNA in a bacteria cell
15 of 38
DNA
The chemical that makes up genes and chromosomes
16 of 38
Double Helix
The shape of DNA
17 of 38
Polymer
Is made up of Monomers, Big Molecule e.g. DNA
18 of 38
Monomer
Repeating unit that makes up a big molecule e.g. Nucleotide
19 of 38
Nucleotide
Monomer of DNA - Made up of phosphate, sugar and a base
20 of 38
Bases
Four chemicals within DNA - A, T, G, C
21 of 38
mRNA
Copy of genes as it moves out of the cell
22 of 38
Enzymes
Biological Catalysts = 1. Made up of proteins 2. Where reactions happen 3. NOT LIVING
23 of 38
Substrate
Molecule that fits into the enzyme - Molecules collide and then join
24 of 38
Active Site
Where the substrate joins to the enzyme
25 of 38
Denature
When the active site changes shape and can't bind with the substrate
26 of 38
Lock and Key Hypothesis
The model for how enzymes work

What type of cell is an Animal Cell?
This is a Eukaryotic Cell because it has a nucleus
28 of 38
What type of cell is a Plant Cell?
This is a Eukaryotic Cell because it has a nucleus
29 of 38
What type of cell is a Bacteria Cell?
This a Prokaryotic Cell because it does not have a nucleus so can't store its genetic material in there ( a nucleus)
