Name of the first prokaryotic genome to be sequenced?
Haemophilus influenzae
How is the DNA in a prokaryotic cell organised?
DNA, CYTOPLASM, FLAGELLA, CILLIA, MITOCHONDRIA
What is involved in regulating gene expression in prokaryotes but not in eukaryotes?
The regulation of gene expression allows prokaryotic cells, such as bacteria, to better respond to stimuli and to conserve energy and materials
Is it true mitochondria and chloroplasts originated in bacteria?
It is thought that chloroplasts and mitochondria were prokaryotic organisms and they were engulfed by a eukaryotic organism and instead of being digested by the cell a symbiotic relationship was formed. this is called endosymbiosis. the first scientist to pioneer this kind of thinking was Mereschkowsky back in 1905. Taking chloroplast as the example, most of the genes from the chloroplast genome have been intergrated into the nulcear genome. Those that are left are conserved in both the chloroplast genome and the cyanobacteria genome. (the cyanobacteria is the prokaryotic organisms that is thought to have been engulfed, thus creating the ancestor to the modern chloroplast). For example, the gene for bacterial cell division is also found in the chloroplast genome. Comparing both the modern chloroplast genome and the modern cyanobacteria genome it is possilbe to see just how many genes that where originally chloroplast based have jumped ship and gone to the nuclear genome. Both animals and plants contain mitochondria but only plants contain chloroplasts. This suggests that the endosymbiotic relationship between the eukaryotic cell and the mitcohondria happen before the animal and plant lines diverged.

What is The simplest cell?
The cell having the smallest genome out of all known cells is Mycoplasma genitalium, with 482 genes comprised of 580,000 bases. (An ameba is not the simplest cell, and has more genetic information than a human.)
What is the complete set genes of an individual?
genome

What makes a tumor?
This is the short story: When there's an error in a cells genome (DNA) regulation, the cell may start replicating uncontrollably. This causes a tumor. Do you want the long story?

All of the DNA in each cell of the body is called the?
blueprint cell
Is Bacillus anthracis prokaryotic or eukaryotic?
A spirochete (also spelt as Spirochaete) is Prokaryotic.
What stage is the human genome project currently at?
The Human Genome Project was completed in 2003. This means that we have the sequence of As,Ts,Cs, and Gs that comprise all of our chromosomes. However, we are still learning the functions of the proteins coded for by the DNA. We are also still learning about "junk" DNA (introns and intergenic DNA) and about the regulation of gene expression (epigenetics)
