This cellular structure helps maintain composition of intra- and extracellular fluids, forms a framework for protein components of cell, detects chemical messengers at cell surface, links adjacent cells together
What is the Plasma Mebrane?
What is bulk transport?

energy
What is a joule?
This enzyme catalyzes the converion of ATM into cAMP
What is adenylyl cyclase?
This condition is charecterized by increased GH
later in life
What is Acromegaly?
Changes in population over
evolutionary time as a result of natural selection
that improve the survivability or reproductive
fitness of the species
What is Adaptation?
Hydrophobic molecules are able to _______diffuse across the plasma mebrance.
What is passively?
There are organic catalysts that dissolved solutes, do not make reactions happen, and they reduce activation energy.
What are enzymes?
Law of ______ which states that receptors can become saturated at high levels.
What is mass action?
this hormone stimulates water reabsorption
What is antidiuretic Hormone (ADH)?
The tendency to regulate and maintain a relatively
stable internal environment
What is homeostasis?
This type of channel is regulated by a physical change
What are mechanically gated channels?
These help to fold proteins correctly
What are chaperones?
This type of mebrance receptor forms a homodimer
What are Receptor Tyrosine Kinases?
Hormones which target
other endocrine glands
and cause the release of
other hormones
What are trophic hormones?
Blood clotting is an example of this feedback mechanism
These types of proteins bind the substrate, undergoe a conformational change, and release substrate to other side.
Whare are permeases or carrier proteins?
This biochemical process starts with amino acid, pyruvate, or small lipids, occurs in the mitochondria and cytoplasm, and the end product is glucose or glycogen.
Gluconeogenesis
This type of receptor forms a heterodimer and has intrinsic enzymatic activity
Whare are Serine/Threonine Kinase Receptor?
This homrmone stimulates androgen production.
What is Luteinizing Hormone (LH)?
______ is the adjustment in physiological function(s) in response to changes in the environment (multiple
factors) whereas _______ is a laboratory phenomenon - adjustment in response to only one factor.
What is Acclimatization and Acclimation?
This type of transporter moves anions and cations in the same direction. i.e. NKCC transporters
What are electroneutral cotransporters?
The process in which lipids are broken down to
produce acetyl-CoA
What is fatty acid oxidation?
This membrane receptors has enzymatic activity and catalyzes the conversion of GTP to cGMP.
Guanylate Cyclase
This type of diabetes is characterized by loss of beta cells and little or no insulin production.
What is Type I diabetes?
