Cell Membrane
This model describes the structure of the cell membrane.
What is the Fluid Mosaic Phospholipid Bilayer Model?
They are the building blocks of proteins.
What are amino acids?
It is the suffix that is added to a word to indicate something is an enzyme.
What is 'ase'
(Lipase, Protease, Amylase)
It is when you provide an answer from a number of possibilities, or recognise and state a distinguishing factor or feature about something.
What is identify?
This molecule in the cell membrane helps maintain its fluidity and stability.
What is cholesterol?
This organelle in eukaryotic cells is responsible for photosynthesis.
What is the chloroplast?
It can be determined by temperature, pH and the concentrations of products or reactants.
What is reaction rate?
It is when you give an account of a situation, event, pattern or process, or of the characteristics or features of something.
What is describe?
Osmosis is the passive movement of this substance across a semi-permeable membrane.
What is water?
Unlike eukaryotic cells, this characteristic is typically lacking in prokaryotic cells.
What is a nucleus?
It is the pH at which an enzyme works most efficiently.
What is optimum pH?
It is when you make an idea or situation plain or clear by describing it in more detail or revealing relevant facts.
What is explain?
Active transport requires this universal energy source.
What is ATP?
This organelle is involved in the removal of cellular products and wastes, often containing enzymes for digestion.
What are lysosomes?
They are substances that can decrease the activity of enzymes by binding to their active sites.
What are inhibitors?
It is when you establish, conclude or ascertain after consideration, observation, investigation or calculation.
What is determine?
Large cells can't rely solely on passive diffusion for nutrient exchange due to limitations in this aspect.
What is a lower surface area-to-volume ratio?
This organelle is responsible for the synthesis of carbohydrates, lipids, and steroids.
What is the smooth endoplasmic reticulum?
They are the two models that are used to explain how enzymes interact with substrates. One model involves a change in enzyme shape upon binding, and the other model suggests a precise fit between enzyme and substrate.
What are the "induced-fit" model and the "lock-and-key" model of enzyme-substrate interaction?
It is when you display recognition of similarities and differences and recognise the significance of these similarities and differences.
What is compare?
