17
Q

what do kinked chains do

A

prevent the phospholipids from being stacked together hence, increasing and maintaining fluidity even in cold climates

18
Q

what organelles are composed of a phosplipid bilayer

A

cell membrane and vesicle

19
Q

what do receptor sites do

A

receive signals

20
Q

Messenger rna

A

a copy of DNA that carries out instructions to ribosomes for translations

21
Q

Transfer rna

A

carries a specific amino acid to the ribosome for translation

22
Q

surface protein

A

proteins that are attached to the surface of the membrane that play a role in cell communication

23
Q

Transmembrane proteins

A

proteins that are embedded in the phospholipid bilayer that only allow specific substances across the membrane

24
Q

Integral proteins

A

protein that is permanently attached to the cell membrane membrane

25
Q

Peripheral proteins

A

temparoolty attached to the cell membrane

26
Q

4 main types of proteins in cell membrane

A

vSurface proteins –
Transmembrane proteins
Integral proteins
Peripheral proteins

27
Q

Types of transmembrane proteins

A

Receptor protein
Transport proteins

28
Q

each receptor-ligand pair bind with a lock-and-key fit- to do what?

A

to allow receptor proteins to become either activated or inactivated leading to an intercellular response

29
Q

channel protein

A

type of transport protein that causes ions and water to flow through cell membrane

30
Q

what diffuses through the cell membrane easily and why

A

Small non-polar substances because non polar substances attract fat and the cell membrane is made of fat, Also, Small hydrophobic substances because they repel water and attract fat as well.

31
Q

what else besides polar substances are unable to cross through the cell membrane

A

Really large substances eg. glucose

32
Q

vcarrier proteins

A

type of transport protein that allows water and ions to flow through the membrane. However, unlike a channel protein when a substance enters one side of the carrier protein closes and another opens continuously.

33
Q

Transcription

A

Dna is replicated into an mRNA

34
Q

difference between transcription and translation

A

transcription occurs first- a copy of DNA is made(mRNA)

Translation:
occurs after transcription
mRNA is read by ribosomes to create proteins

35
Q

what factors increase perambilty

A

steeper concentration graident
higher temperatures
PH

35
Q

what factors increase perambilty

A

steeper concentration graident
higher temperatures
PH

36
Q

Proximal convoluted tubules function

A

erabsorbs ions and 65% of water and is able to secrete toxins and ammonia

37
Q

Loop of Henle (Loh) function

A

water is reabsorbed to create concencentrated urine

38
Q

What process occurs in loop of henle

A

Water passively diffuses through the descending limb (reabsorption)
This makes the descending limb highly concentrated
This highly concentrated ions will move into the ascending limb where they will be actively pumped out of the tubules
The cycle repeats

39
Q

What is the loop of henle composedof

A

composed of

ascending loop of henle
descending loop of henle
Thick asnecnidg limb
Thin descending limb

40
Q

Distal convoluted tubule function

A

fine tunes the filtrate by secreting and reabsorbing substances such as water and ions according to the body’s requirement

41
Q

Collecting duct (CD)function

A

filters and modifies the waste through reabsorption and secretion

42
Q

function of nephron:

A

excretes waste through filtration of blood
