ATI TEAS 6 EXAM STUDY GUIDE – Blinn College (A Grade / School graded) ATI TEAS 6 EXAM STUDY GUIDE Science Cell ¬ Cell: basic organizational unit of all living things. One thing in common is t... hey all have membranes (phospholipids). ¬ Cell structure organization: All cells contain DNA, and RNA & can synthesize proteins. Consists of nucleic acids, cytoplasm, and cell membrane. o Tissues: Cells that are grouped together o Organs: Tissues that are grouped together o Systems: Organs that are grouped together o Organism: A complete individual ¬ Nuclear parts of a cell o Nucleus: contains chromosomes, & regulates DNA of the cell. Defining structure of eukaryotic cells (they all have nucleus). Passes genetic traits between generations. Contains nuclear envelop, nucleoplasm, nucleolus, nuclear pores, chromatin, & ribosomes. o Chromosomes: thread like rods of DNA. Short deoxyribonucleic acid, DNA is the genetic material that stores information about the plant/animal. o Chromatin: DNA & Protein makeup chromosomes - - - - - - - o Long bones: Tibia, fibula, femur, metatarsals, phalanges, clavicle, humerus, radius, ulna, metacarpals, phalanges o Short bones: Tarsals, carpals, o Irregular bones: Vertebrae, sacrum o Sesamoid bones: Patella. ¬ Skeletal system function o Movement, mineral storage, support, protection, & blood cell formation (RBC’s produced in bone marrow). Life and physical sciences Macromolecules ¬ 4 basic organic macromolecules: carbohydrates (polysaccharides), nucleic acids, proteins, & lipids. ¬ 4 basic building blocks: monosaccharides (glucose), amino acids, fatty acids (glycerol), nucleotides. Carbohydrates ¬ Primary source of energy & responsible for providing energy ¬ Simple sugars: Monosaccharides (glucose, fructose, & sucrose), & disaccharides. Lipids ¬ Lipids are hydrophobic ¬ Function: energy storage, & structural function ¬ Phospholipids are lipids that have phosphate group ¬ Glycerides are formed from fatty acids Proteins ¬ Proteins are macromolecules from amino acids o Peptides result of condensation reactions o A peptide is a compound of two or more amino acids.
