Q

Know some of your organelles including: Chloroplasts, nucleus, mitochondria, ribosomes, ER, golgi apparatus, central vacuole

A

chloroplast: plants, does photosynthesis, makes sugars
nucleus: both contains DNA
mitochondria: both does cellular respiration to provide ATP
ribosomes: makes proteins
ER: makes materials for the cell
Golgi apparatus: both (UPS) packages modifies and ships stuff from the ER
central vacuole: plants involved in storage and maintaining internal water pressure

Q

compare and contrast passive transport and active transport. (diffusion, osmosis, sodium potassium pump)

A

passive: moves molecules down concentration gradient- no energy
osmosis- movement of water
diffusion- movement of molecules
active: moves molecules against the concentration gradient- needs energy
sodium potassium pump- pumps these molecules in/out of the cell ( Na=out and K=in)

Q

what is tonicity? compare isotonic, hypertonic, and hypotonic
be able to work out these types of problems, figuring out if the cell swells, shrinks or stays the same

A

ability of surrounding solution to cause cell to gain or lose water
hypertonic: more molecules; more negative
hypotonic: less molecules; more positive
isotonic: equal amount of molecules; equal y
*water always moves to hypertonic item (more negative)

Q

In cell signaling what are secondary messengers and a phosphorylation cascade?

A

secondary messengers: carries the message to the next step in cell signaling…cAMP
phosphorylation cascade: a sequence of signaling pathway events when one enzyme phosphorylates another, causing a chain reaction… amplify signal

Q

what are the 4 steps of cellular respiration? what are the products of each

A

glycolysis, link, krebs, oxidative phosphorylation

21
Q

what are the end products of glycolysis

A

2 pyruvate, 2 NADH, 2 ATP

22
Q

what are the products of links?

A

2 Acetyl CoA, 2 NADH

23
Q

what are the products of krebs?

A

2 FADH, 6 NADH, 2 ATP

24
Q

what are the products of oxidative phosphorylation?

A

30-32 ATP… this number varies based on a number of things

25
the whole reason organisms perform cellular respiration is to make _____
ATP/energy
26
There are two waste products of cellular respiration and they are ____ and ____
water and carbon dioxide
27
this compound is needed to get cellular respiration STARTED
glucoses
28
compare and contrast somatic cells and gametes. Number of chromosomes? Haploid/diploid?
somatic: body cells, diploid, 23 parts of chromosomes or ___ in humans gametes: sex cells (sperm or egg), haploid, 23 chromosomes __
29
what are the steps of mitosis? what types of cells are made?
steps: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telephase cell: somatic
30
steps: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telephase cell: somatic
steps: prophase 1, metaphase 1, anaphase 1, telophase 1, prophase 2, metaphase 2, anaphase 2, telophase 2 cells: gametes events: crossing over, homologous chromosomes lining up and separating
31
homologous chromosomes vs sister chromatids. When are each divided out during both mitosis and meiosis?
homologous chromosomes: same size, location, and code for the same traits one comes from mom and one from dad sister chromatids: half of a duplicated chromosome meiosis: homologous separate during anaphase 1... sisters separate anaphase 2 and meiosis
32
when does crossing over occur? Mitosis or meiosis? Which step specifically?
meiosis- prophase 1
33
what are the 3 phases or steps of interphase?
G1- grow S (synthesis)- copy DNA G2- grow
34
what is the monomer of DNA and what 3 components make it up? What part of this is considered the backbone of DNA and which part is considered the rungs?
nucleotide- phosphate, sugar, base backbone- sugar and phosphate rungs- bases (coding)
35
what is the process of making a new DNA molecule called
replication
36
what does it mean that the DNA is double helix
double stranded and twisted
37
which molecule is responsible for the formation of proteins?
RNA
38
DNA contains information to make _____
proteins
39
what determines the function of a protein
structure, which is determined by the sequence of amino acids... structure determines function
40
what are the base pairing rules
A=T and C=G
41
Math problems for base pairing rules. For example, if you have 45% cytosine what percent Adenine?
5%
42
what does central dogma state
DNA -> RNA -> Protein
43
XX and XY determine what
gender xx= girl xy= boy
44
leading strand v. lagging strand
leading: 5-3, starts with a phosphate, made continuously lagging: 3-5, starts with a sugar, made in short fragments (Okazaki fragments)
45
what does each one do? Primase, helicase, topoisomerase, DNA ligase, DNA Polymerase 3
Primase; lays primer to allow DNA polymerase 3 to bind to DNA helicase: unzips the DNA to create single strands topoisomerase: binds ahead of helicase to relieve strand by breaking and reforming covalent bonds in the backbone DNA ligase: glues fragments on lagging strand together DNA polymerase 3: builds new strand of DNA
