Cell Structure and Transport
This organelle contains hydrolytic enzymes used to digest waste and worn-out organelles.
What is the Lysosome?
Enzymes lower this in a chemical reaction.
What is energy of activation?
A genotype represented by “Aa.”
What is heterozygous?
The steps of cellular respiration.
What is glycolysis, aerobic respiration, and electron transport chain?
White blood cells that directly attack infected body cells.
What are T-cells?
The movement of molecules from an area of low concentration to high concentration using energy.
What is active transport?
The building blocks of nucleic acids.
a.) Sugar, phosphate group, and a nitrogen base
What are nucleotides?
a.) what are they made of?
This nitrogen base pairs with adenine in RNA.
What is uracil? (biggest op)
The organelle where photosynthesis takes place.
What is the chloroplast?
This type of immunity results from vaccination.
What is active immunity?
This type of solution causes an animal cell to shrivel due to water loss.
What is a hypertonic solution?
This enzyme unwinds DNA during replication.
What is helicase? ;) *unzips genes*
The process where mRNA is used to build proteins.
What is translation?
The electron transport chain produces most of this molecule.
What is ATP?
A foreign molecule that promotes an immune response.
What is an antigen?
The phospholipid bilayer is selectively permeable because of this property of phospholipids.
What is a hydrophilic head and hydrophobic tail?
A change in pH or temperature can cause an enzyme (protein) to lose its shape in this process.
What is denaturation?
Genes whose activity is controlled in response to the needs of a cell or organism
What are regulated genes?
The Krebs cycle occurs in this part of the cell.
What is the mitochondria?
The type of immune response is important in treating fungal infections
What is cell mediated?
This transport protein changes shape to move substances across the membrane.
What is a carrier protein?
The specific region where a substrate binds on an enzyme.
What is the active site?
Genes that are expressed all the time.
What are constitutive genes?
Net ATP yield of aerobic respiration.
What is 38?
-on surface or inside of a microbe
- cause an immune response
- from foreign cells
- can be presented on MHC-2 proteins of macrophages
What are the properties of an antigen?
