90-130 Flashcards
What can remove peripheral proteins
Mild treatment with salt
Blue green algae
Prokaryotes form kingdom monera
Treatment of integral proteins
Detergent
Birth control pills control hormones
Estrogen and progestin
Progesterone
Decrease FSH and LH levels- leading
Myelin is made by
Schwann cells
Gluconeogenesis
Occurs in cytosine
Where is prolactin produced
Anterior pituitary gland
Hormones of anterior pituitary gland
HGH, LH , FSH, TSH, Prolactin
Hormones of posterior pituitary gland
ADH (vasopressin) and oxytocin - made in hypothalamus
most accurate way to work out molecular structures
X-Ray diffraction
peptidoglycans
macromolecules found in prokaryotes only; it’s what the cell wall is made up of; made up of polysaccharide and polypeptide chains.
Gram positive results
thick peptidoglycan layer and appear purple
Gram negative results
thin peptidoglycan layer and washes off
teichoic acids
used as recognition and binding sites by bacterial viruses that accuses infection (also in gram positive bacteria and covalently attached to the peptidoglycan layer)
nerve signal sequence
presynaptic cell-synaptic cleft- postsynaptic cell
the middle ear (3)
incus, malleus, stapes
inner ear
seminuclear canals, and cochlea
what’s secreted by the adrenal cortex
aldosterone and cortisol
what’s secreted by the adrenal medulla
epinephrine (adrenaline) and norepinephrine
what raises and lowers glucose levels ?
glucagon (made by pancreatic cells ) and cortisol raise glucose levels ; while insulin (made in the Beta cells) and lowers glucose levels
aldosterone
involved in Na+ reabsorption and K+ secretion in the kidneys collecting duct, as well as a rise in blood press and blood volume
Fungi
are eukaryotic heterotrophs, secrete digestive enzymes and then absorb the soluble products of digestion ; more similar to human cells than plant cells; attach dead matter and living tissue
what are fungi composed of? how do they reproduce
hyphase - collectively called mycelium? sexually and asexually?
saprophytic
break down the remains of living organisms that have died
habitat
physical environment in which the organism lives
niche
the role that an organism plays in its natural community, the way the organism lives, eats and reproduces
