Q

what stimulates the AP

A

release of neurotransmitter bind to ligand gated channels

21
Q

transcription factors bind to ___ specific/binds to the _____ region

A

dna, promoter

22
Q

what molecules pass membrane diffuse

A

small, hydrophobic, and if planar

23
Q

activation of a protein by protein kinase means its getting

A

phosphorlated - transfer of phosphate groups

24
Q

what are products of ATP ase

A

ADP and Pi

25
Q

these are specialized microdomain in membrane, and have all protein, carbs, and lipids different from rest of membrane + CHOLESTEROL RICH

A

lipid raft

26
Q

these protein form specialized sites on cell surface that allow cells to recognize each other

A

peripheral

27
Q

which mitotic phase included microtubulues

A

anaphase - need to move opp poles

28
Q

the initial filtration step in gomerus of kidney occurs by

A

passive flow due to pressure difference

29
Q

what are the 3 pressure that work together to regualte filtration in glomerus

A
  1. glom capillary
  2. capsular hydrostatic
  3. blood colloidt
30
Q

there is active transport of _________ in the loop of henle

A

electrolytes

31
Q

to modify rate of rx, enzyme can ____ with the substrate, _____ the ph, and alter_____

A

co-localize w the substrate, and alter ph (acidic, or nonpolar), and can alter substrate shape - bond breaking

32
Q

why would ornithine not become a protien even tho in our cells

A

if in our cells, it has been consumes, but overall there is no genetic code for it. if its a.a., it can automatically form a peptide bond, charge wont prevent to become a protein

33
Q

if decarboxylase helps to convert something then its known as

A

enzyme (pplus ends with ase)

34
Q

which enzymes are capable of changing the chirality of molecule

A

isomerase (epimerase or racemase)

35
Q

acetyl coenzyme a (acetyle co a) particapte in

A

CAC

36
Q

Mature erythrocytes dont contain

A

DNA - No nucleus or mitochondria

37
Q

which cell present as most important role in gas exchnage

A

epithelial cells - form barriers between blood vessels and surrounding tissues

38
Q

animal viruses can only infect

A

animal cells, not bacteria so they wont grow in agar plate with bacteria - cant hijack - they are obligate parasites

39
Q

some viruses do contain

A

dna

40
Q

viruses depend on hosts to survive and ____assimilate carbon

A

cannot

41
Q

telomeres are not important to bacterial chromosome because they are

A

circular

42
Q

is bacteria double stranded

A

yes

43
Q

Aldosterone eliminate what

A

potassium

44
Q

what kind of hormone are glucocorticoids, synthesized where

A

steroid, adrenal cortex

45
Q

high level of glucocortico causes

A

muscle wekaness, because of protein degradtaion

46
Q

gluconegenisis has products that come from

A

other metabolites, lipids and a.a

47
Q

exercise can help what diabetes

A

both - because use glucose in insulin independant manner

48
Q

where is it likely for insulin cleavage to occur in cell

A

ER - endomembrane sys, because this is where modify the proteins

49
Q
A
