|
|
Term
Differences between Eukaryotic and Prokaryotic cells |
|
Definition
In eukary. cells DNA is in NUCLEUS In Prokary. cells DNA is in NUCLEOID Eukary are larger |
|
|
Term
Origin and indpenedent genome of mitochondria and chloroplasts in eukaryotic cells |
|
Definition
-Infolding of cell membrane creates endomembrane system -Engulfing of non-photosynthetic prokary. creates mitochondria (with own DNA) -Engulfing of photosynthetic prokary. creates chloroplasts (with own DNA) |
|
|
Term
Special features of plant cells not present in animal cells |
|
Definition
chlorosplasts cell wall and central vacuole can make own food |
|
|
Term
ATP: function and principal structural features, formation, and usage in the three kinds of cellular work |
|
Definition
-formed with energy from breakdown of energy righ food -consists of three phosphate groups, a sugar and a nitrogenous base -3 kinds of cellular work -Mechanical _transport -chemical |
|
|
Term
Understand the role of fermentation as well as the two types of fermentation and their practical applications |
|
Definition
-makes limited amount of ATP without the chain; end result is lactic acid -Alcohol fermentation: yeast and bacteria, beer/wine, bread leavening -Lactic Acid: fungi and bacteria, yogurt, cheese, sour cream |
|
|
Term
Differences between fast twitch glycolytic and slow twitch oxidative mucle fibers |
|
Definition
Glycolytic: use glycoysis, quick but doesn not provide a lot of energy Oxidative- use oxidative respiration: slower; yields more energy |
|
|
Term
understand the several classes of macrmolecules can be used as fuels in cellular respiration |
|
Definition
Carbs: quick energy Fats: sustained energy Proteins: only used during starvation periods |

|
Definition
Protons ATP synthase ATP produced |

|
Term
Understand heat generation in metabolism and the role of uncouplers |
|
Definition
Provide channel across membrane through which protons flow back (downhill) with out making ATP, all energy is heat |
|
|
Term
Be able to relate aquaporin structure to aquaporin function |
|
Definition
-Transport proteins allowing movement of (polar) water across (hydrophobic) lipid membranes -Water channels across membranes; membrane-spanning proteins |
|
|
Term
Recognize examples of aquaporin involvment (in human kidney, lung, eye, mouth, skin) in the regulation of water movement |
|
Definition
-Regulation of saliva output -Secretion of aqueos gastrointestinal juices druing digestion -Kidneys: 7 diff aquaporins. Ppl with defective aqauporin 2 can't concentrate urine, drink 20 liter/day. During pregnancy cause water retention -Lung hydration: 4 diff kinds -Generation of tears -Increases sweating: maintain body temp |
|
|
Term
Examples of environmental oxidants The process when ROS is formed in the human body |
|
Definition
- smoking, UV radiation, heavy metals, asbestos, silica, detoxifcation of alcohol and drugs -Human body forms ROS with every breathe we take -5-10% of electron transport in mitochondria respiration leads to formation of ROS |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
- Need LESS ENERGY since they dont run two cycles -Better in LESS SUNNY, MOIST, COOL CLIMATES -More COLD TOLERANT |
|
|
Term
|
Definition

|
Definition
-Protein needed for movement of hydrophilic molecule -ATP needed when move from low to high concentration |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
-pumps against high concentration gradients NA high outside, K high inside -Oscillates between two shapes 3 NA for 2 K -ATP adds phosphate group for NA; it's released with K |
|
|
Term
Role and example of proton pumps coupled with a co-transporter |
|
Definition
-H+ gradient maintained by ATP-driven proton pump that concentrates H+ outside the cell, thus storing potential energy that can be used for active transport--> sucrose |
