Signal transduction
100

Put the steps of cellular respiration in the order that they occur: chemiosmosis, glycolysis, electron transport chain, Citric Acid Cycle, Transition step

Glycolysis, transition step,CAC, ETC, chemiosmosis

100

What are the 3 steps of cell signaling?

Reception, transduction, response

100

What does it mean when a substance is reduced?

It gains an electron

100

When and where does fermentation occur?

Occurs in cytoplasm, after Glycolysis if there is no Oxygen present to carry out cellular respiration

100

What is the result of signal transduction?

activation of cellular response in nucleus (nuclear response; gene regulation) or  cytoplasmic response (e.g. enzyme regulation, cell behavior)

200

List the products of glycolysis and the transition step

2 pyruvate, 2 acetylCoA

200

What are the 3 types of signalling?

Direct contact, local signaling, and long distance signaling

200

What does it mean when a substance is oxidized?

It loses an electron

200

What is the purpose of fermentation?

Regenerate NAD+ so that it can accept electrons and allow glycolysis to continue happening

200
T/F The same signal will have the same effects of different cells

F: The same signal can have different effects in cells with different proteins and pathways

300

What drives the Electron Transport Chain?

H+ gradient created by electrons from NADH and FADH

300

What are 3 ways to terminate a signal?

Enzymatic degradation, diffusion, reuptake (though there are many more!)

300

Which substance is in the reduced form: NAD+ or NADH?

NADH

300

What are the 2 types of fermentation and  what do they convert pyruvate to?


  1. Alcohol fermentation (yeast cells) → converts pyruvate to ethanol and CO2

  2. Lactate Fermentation (animal calls) → converts pyruvate to lactate

300

List 2 ways a signal can be terminated.

1. Binding of ligand is reversible

2. If concentration of signaling molecule decreases, signal terminated: Enzymatic degradation, Diffusion, reuptake

3. Other participants in signaling pathways inactivate or are inactivated. 

400

What happens to FADH and NADH once they have dropped off their electrons at the ELectron Transport Chain?

They become FAD and NAD+ and are recycled. 

400

What are the two types of receptors and examples of each?


  1. Membrane-bound receptors: G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs), Receptor tyrosine kinases, Ligand gated ion channels

  2. Intracellular receptors: Hormone receptors

400

Which substance is in its oxidized form: FAD or FADH2?

FAD

400

Where in the cell do glycolysis and the Electron transport chain occur?

Glycolysis happens in the cytoplasm, ETC happens in the inner  membrane of the mitochondria 

400

What is the purpose of a signal cascade?

1.  amplify a signal/ make a signal stronger

2. each step of the cascade can be used as a point of regulation

500

What is the final electron acceptor of the Electron Transport Chain and what does it form?

Oxygen is the final electron acceptor, it combines with Hydrogen ions to produce water

500

cAMP, Ca2+, and IP3 are examples of what kind of molecule?

Second messengers

500

During cellular  respiration, glucose is  __________ (oxidized/reduced) and oxygen is _________ (oxidized/reduced)

Oxidized, reduced

500

Pyruvate is the output for which step of cellular respiration? Pyruvate is the input for which step of cellular respiration?


  1. Output: glycolysis

  2. Input: Transition reaction

500

Which types of receptors use water soluble ligands?

1. G- protein coupled  receptors (GPCR)

2.  Receptor tyrosine kinases 

3. Ligand gated ion channels
