Intro To A and P
What does the root word "Morph" mean?
Shape
What does Hydrophilic mean?
Water-loving, will dissolve in water!!!
What are the monomers of carbohydrates?
Monosaccride
What do you need for a concentration gradient to exist?
An uneven distribution of molecules
Where does Cellular Respiration take place in the cell?
The Mitochondria
The heart belongs to what level of organization?
Organ
What is the abbreviation AND root for Potassium?
Abbrv- K and Root is Kal
What are the 3 types of Lipids?
Triglycerides, Sterols, Phospholipids
Bonus points: Draw me the Sterol structure
If a cell has 10% saline and the outside has 2% saline, in which direction is water going to move?
Into the cell
During which stage is CO2 released?
Kreb's Cycle
If I said that I hurt my popliteal during my kick session yesterday at swim practice, what region of my body did I hurt?
Posterior area of the knee
What is a solvent?
Molecules that does the dissolving in a solution.
Bonus Points: What is the Universal Solvent?
What are the two types of shapes during secondary folding?
Helixes and Sheets
What are the molecules that can pass through the plasma membrane WITHOUT assistance?
Small, nonpolar, noncharged molecules - CO2, O2, Lipids
If an enzyme is putting together 2 substrates to make 1 product, what kind of enzyme is it?
Anabolic Enzyme
For an upcoming eye surgery, my doctor told me he was going to enter through my forehead. What direction is he entering from to get to my eye?
Entering superior to my eye
If the pH is rising, what is happening to the [H+]?
H+ concentration would decrease
Bonus points: Can you make the pH chart that Professor Brown drew during class
How do you define a lipid?
Molecules that don't dissolve in water
What is phagocytosis?
Phagocytosis is when the cell takes in large/solid molecules (eating) (think back to the video Brown showed during class of the virus being chased by the cell)
What are the inputs and outputs of Glycolysis?
Input: Glucose (C6H12O6)
Outputs: ATP, Energy Carrier Molecules, Pyruvic Acid
Draw an amino group AND name what macromolecule it is in
NH2, Functional group of an amino acid, which are monomer of proteins
What type of bonds are present between nucleic acids?
Between phosphate groups: covalent
Between bases: hydrogen
What are the 3 parts of a nucleic acid?
Bonus Points: Draw a nucleic acid with the labeled parts
5-Carbon sugar, Phosphate group, Nitrogenous Base
How does receptor-mediated endocytosis work? AND why is it important for the cell to be able to do?
Recpetor Medated Endocytosis uses receptors that are on the outside of the cell membrane. When the desired molecules bind to the receptor, the cell is triggered to perform endocytosis. Useful when you want a molecule that is at a lower concentration outside the cell.
If a mistake happened during the transcation portion of protein synthesis, how would that affect the following steps/stages of folding?
The correct amino acids would not be coded for which would mean that the amino acid stand would not fold correctly and the protein would not be the correct shape.
