Nucleosomes are
-"spool-like" structures around which dna is wrapped 1.65 times
-made up of rna-protein complexes
-the organelles at which proteins are made in the cell
-the molecular machinery within the nucleus that carries out transcription of nuclear genes
-the regions within bacteria containing genomic dna

“Spool-like” structures around which DNA is wrapped around 1.65 times

q: compare the parts of a cell and the cell as a whole to another common nonliving system (i.e., a car, a city,

a:

comparing this to the inside of a food building/company.

plasma membrane - building's walls

all cells are surrounded by a plasma membrane, which protects the cell from its environment, keeping toxic substances out of the cell. it regulates which molecules are allowed to enter and exit the cell.

nucleus - the big boss

regulates all cell activity such as cellular metabolism, and growth in addition to storing and maintaining the cell's dna for transcription and replication. determines what proteins to make.

cytoplasm - working areas

contains the organelles; site of most cell activity

endoplasmic reticulum - engineer's work area

the place where ribosomes do their working activity.

ribosomes - engineers

builds the proteins.

golgi apparatus - pickup truck drivers

prepares proteins for use or export.

lysosomes -   investigators

responsible for breaking down and absorbing materials taken in by the cell.

cytoskeleton - renovators

maintains cell shape.

mitochondria/chloroplasts - materials scientist

transforms one form of energy into another.
