Cellular Respiration
This molecule is known as the universal energy currency of the cell.
ATP
This process converts DNA into mRNA.
Transcription
This term describes molecules with both hydrophilic and hydrophobic regions.
Amphipathic
This passive process moves molecules from an area of high concentration to low concentration.
Diffusion
What Nerve is the only nerve that is innervated by the CNS
Optic Nerve
This metabolic pathway occurs in the cytoplasm and produces a net gain of 2 ATP.
Glycolysis
According to the lecture, proteins can be synthesized for at least five different functions. Name one of these five.
Enzymes, channels, active transporters, structural elements, and intracellular highways (e.g., tubulin)?
These molecules make up the majority of the plasma membrane.
Phospholipids
This transport mechanism directly uses ATP to move substances against their concentration gradient.
Primary active transport
why
why not
This process uses a proton gradient to drive ATP synthesis in mitochondria.
Oxidative phosphorylation
This organelle modifies, sorts, and packages newly synthesized proteins.
Golgi Apparatus
This type of fat is often solid at room temperature
Saturated Fat
These membrane proteins provide water-filled pathways for ions to move across membranes.
Channel proteins
This theory explains how electron transport creates a proton gradient that powers ATP synthase.
Chemiosmotic theory
These four components must come together to initiate translation.
The small ribosomal subunit, large ribosomal subunit, initiator tRNA, and mRNA?
This is the currently accepted model describing membrane structure.
Fluid Mosaic Model?
The sodium glucose transporter is an example of which carrier/pump mediated transport
Secondary Active Transport
In the presence of oxygen, pyruvate is converted into this molecule before entering the Krebs cycle.
Acetyl-CoA
This pathway synthesizes glucose from lactate, glycerol, and amino acids.
Gluconeogenesis
Increasing the number of double bonds in fatty acid tails has this effect on membrane fluidity.
Increases membrane fluidity
According to Fick’s Law, these five factors influence the rate of diffusion.
Concentration gradient, membrane permeability, surface area, membrane thickness, and molecular size
