The Scientific method
• Scientists use the Scientific Method to test
Theories.
– Generate an Observation
– Pose a Hypothesis
– Perform Experiments
– Analyze Results
– Reach a Conclusion--does the date support or
refute our Theory?
The Scientific method
• Scientists use the Scientific Method to test

– Reach a Conclusion--does the date support or
refute our Theory?
Why do Experiments in Labs?
• Controls! Controls! Controls!
• Lab Experiments can prevent “variables”
– Variable: Factor that can cause observable change
and through results off.
• Independent – what you vary during the experiment.
Usually this will be time.
• Dependant – what you measure – what will change
during the experiment
– Control: Subject to all experimental steps EXCEPT
the experimental Factor.
Animalia – development by
means of an embryonic stage
No cell walls. Do not
undergo photosynthesis
Plantae – contain a cell wall
carry out photosynthesis
Non-motile life stages.
Fungi - contain cell wall
Do NOT photosynthesize
Protista – No cell walls
reproduce by spores – motile
Monera – the bacteria:
single-cell organisms

Components of a Cell
Components of a Cell
• Nucleus--contained within a cell by nuclear
envelope. The nucleus contains DNA.
• Ribosomes--these structures make protein.
• Endoplasmic Reticulum--this is a membrane
network composed RER--rough has ribosomes
makes proteins, and SER--smooth makes lipids.
• Golgi Apparatus--modifies proteins involved in
secretion.
• Endomembrane system--Composed of nuclear
envelope, ER, Golgi, Lysosomes and Vesicles, these
organelles all work together to make protein sorting
and protein secretion possible.
The Mitochondria
• Contain their own DNA and
protein-synthesizing machinery
– Ribosomes, transfer RNAs,
nucleotides.
– Thought to have evolved
from endosymbiotic bacteria.
– Divide by fusion
– The DNA is in the form of
circular chromosomes, like
bacteria
– DNA replication is
independent from DNA
replication in the nucleus
The Mitochondria
Site of Cellular Respiration
• This process requires oxygen.
• Composed of three stages:
– Glycolysis--glucose splitting,
occurs in the cell. Glucose is
converted to Pyruvate.
– Krebs cycle--Electrons are
removed--carriers are
charged and CO2 is
produced. This occurs in the
mitochondrion.
– Electron transport--electrons
are transferred to oxygen.
This produces H2O and ATP.
Occurs in the mito.
The Chloroplast
• Contain their own DNA and
protein-synthesizing machinery
– Ribosomes, transfer RNAs,
nucleotides.
– Thought to have evolved
from endosymbiotic bacteria.
– Divide by fusion
– The DNA is in the form of
circular chromosomes, like
bacteria
– DNA replication is
independent from DNA
replication in the nucleus
The Chloroplast
• Membranes contain chlophyll
and it’s associated proteins
– Site of photosynthesis
• Have inner & outer membranes
• 3rd membrane system
– Thylakoids
• Stack of Thylakoids = Granum
• Surrounded by Stroma
– Works like mitochondria
• During photosynthesis, ATP
from stroma provide the energy
for the production of sugar
molecules
Terms:
• Phenotype
– An organism’s physical traits
• Genotype
– An organism’s genetic makeup
Allele
• Allele: Alternate form of a gene at same
position on pair of chromosomes that affect the
same trait.
• Dominant Allele: Capital Letter--O
• Recessive Allele: lowercase letter--o
• Homozygous Dominant--OO
• Homozygous Recessive--oo
• Heterozygous--Oo
Stages of Division
• Prophase--nuclear envelope breakdown,
chromosome condensation, spindle formation.
• Metaphase--chromosomes are lined up
precisely on the metaphase plate, or middle of
the cell.
• Anaphase--spindle pulls sister chromatids
apart.
• Telophase--chromatids begin to decondense
and become chromatin. Spindle disappears.
• Cytokinesis--divide cell and organelles. Actin
ring, or cleavage furrow splits cell.

Daughter cells of meiosis II
Prophase -I
Replicated pairs of chromosomes
line up side by side.
These pairs are called Homologous-both have same gene order (gene
for eye color, hair color, etc).
Sister chromatid from one pair
interact with a Sister chromatid from
another pair.
One sister is from father, one sister
from mother, but they have same
gene order.
Prophase -I
• This interaction is called
Synapsis.
• Synapsis results in the
formation of a Tetrad
(4
sisters together).
• Crossing over swaps
sections of homologous
genes.
•Meiosis I

Sex Determination
• All embryos start on a neutral or
"indifferent" path. The 4 week old
embryo is indifferent
• By 7 weeks, the SRY (sex-related)
gene encoded by the short arm of
the Y chromosome begins to roar!
• Testis determining factor converts
progesterone to testosterone
Sex Determination
• Indifferent embryos have two sets of
ducts:
• Müllerian ducts--will be come the
future oviducts--thus female.
•
Wolfian ducts--will become the
future vas deferens--thus male
– dependent on testosterone for its
continued development
• The testes also produce an antiMüllerian hormone that promotes
regression of the Müllerian ducts
– without SRY, the indifferent embryo
will naturally develop into a female
Mutations
Figure 3.6a
Mutations
Sex Chromosomal Disorders
• Turner Syndrome – XO only one sex
chromosome
• Short, thick neck and stature
• Do not undergo puberty, or menstruate,
• no breast development
• Kleinfelter Syndrome – XXY
•
•
•
•
•
Testis and prostate underdeveloped
No facial hair
Brest development
Long arms and legs: big hands and feet
Can be mentally retarded
An XY Individual with Androgen
Insensitivity Syndrome
Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome is a sex reversal condition where XY
individuals look female. These individuals have the Y chromosome and
functional SRY. These individuals have testis which generate AMH and
testosterone. However, the genetic mutation results in a lack of the
testosterone receptor. Estrogens are made in the adrenal gland which drive
phenotypic development. As adults, these individuals have testes in the
abdomen and lack a uterus and oviducts.
DNA Replication
• Each new double helix is composed of an old
(parental) strand and a new (daughter) strand.
• As each strand acts as a template, process is called
Semi-conservative Replication.
• Replication errors can occur. Cell has repair
enzymes that usually fix problem. An error that
persists is a mutation.
• This is permanent, and alters the phenotype.
The structure of RNA
• Formed from 4
nucleotides, 5 carbon
sugar, phosphate.
• Uracil is used in RNA.
– It replaces Thymine
• The 5 carbon sugar has
an extra oxygen.
• RNA is single stranded.
Central Dogma of Molecular
Biology
• DNA holds the code
• DNA makes RNA
• RNA makes Protein
• DNA to DNA is called
REPLICATION
• DNA to RNA is called
TRANSCRIPTION
• RNA to Protein is called
TRANSLATION
Genes can lead to inherited
diseases
• A gene which doesn’t function on an autosomal
chromosome can lead to devastating diseases
• Autosomal chromosomes are 22 pairs of
chromosomes which do not determine gender
• Such diseases can be caused by both a dominant or a
recessive trait
Autosomal Recessive Disorders
• Tay-Sachs Disease:
– Jewish people in USA (E. Euro descent)
– Not apparent at birth
– 4 to 8 months
• Neurological impairment evident
• Gradually becomes blind and helpless
• Develops uncontrollable seizures/paralyzed
• Allele is on Chromosome 15
– Lack of enzyme hexosaminidase A (Hex A)
• Lysosomes don’t work, build up in brain
Autosomal Recessive Disorders
• Cystic Fibrosis
– Most common in USA (Caucasian)
– 1 in 20 caucasians is a carrier
– Mucus in bronchial and pancreas thick/viscous
– Breathing and food digestion problems
• Allele is on chromosome 7
– Cl ions can not pass through plasma membrane
channels
• Cl ions pass –water goes with it. No water, thick
mucus
Autosomal Recessive Disorders
• Phenylketonuria (PKU)
– Affects in in 5,000 newborns
– Most common nervous system disorder
• Allele is on chromosome 12
– Lack the enzyme needed for the metabolism of the
amino acid phenylalanine
– A build up of abnormal breakdown pathway
• Phenylketone
• Accumulates in urine. If diet is not checked, can lead
to severe mental retardation
Autosomal Dominant Disorders
•
•
•
•
•
Neurofibromatosis
Very common genetic disorder
Tan spots on skin
Later tumors develop
some sufferers have large head and ear and eye
tumors.
• Allele is on chromosome 17
– Gene controls the production of a protein called
neurofibromin
– This naturally stops cell growth
Autosomal Dominant Disorders
•
•
•
•
•
Huntington Disease
Leads to degeneration of brain cells
Severe muscle spasms and personality disorders
Attacks in middle age
Allele is on chromosome 4
– Gene controls the production of a protein called
huntington
– Too much AA glutamine. Changes size and shape of
neurons
