1: CELLS: THE FUNDAMENTAL UNITS OF LIFE


Unity and Diversity of Cells



1-1 Living systems are incredibly diverse in size, shape, environment, and behavior. It is



estimated that there are between 10 million and 100 million different species. Despite this



wide variety of organisms, it remains difficult to define what it means to say something is



alive. Which of the following can be described as the smallest living unit?



(a) DNA



(b) cell



(c) organelle



(d) protein

,1-2 Indicate whether the following statements are true or false. If the statement is false,



explain why it is false.



A. The Paramecium is a multicellular microorganism covered with hairlike cilia.



B. Cells of different types can have different chemical requirements.



C. The branchlike extensions that sprout from a single nerve cell in a mammalian



brain can extend over several hundred micrometers.




1-3 For each of the following sentences, fill in the blanks with the best word or phrase



selected from the list below. Not all words or phrases will be used; each word or phrase



should be used only once.




Cells can be very diverse: superficially, they come in various sizes, ranging from



bacterial cells such as Lactobacillus, which is a few in



length, to larger cells such as a frog’s egg, which has a diameter of about one .
Despite the diversity, cells resemble each other to an

, astonishing degree in their chemistry. For example, the same 20



are used to make proteins. Similarly, the genetic



information of all cells is stored in their . Although



contain the same types of molecules as cells, their inability



to reproduce themselves by their own efforts means that they are not considered



living matter.




amino acids micrometer(s) viruses



DNA millimeter(s) yeast



fatty acids plants



meter plasma membranes




1-4 How does cellular specialization serve multicellular organisms and how might a high



degree of specialization be detrimental?

1-5 The flow of genetic information is controlled by a series of biochemical reactions that
