Q

where are the checkstops in cell cycle? what are each checkstop for and what proteins mediate it/

A

restriction point - G1 and S - sees if cells condition is good enough for replication, fixes damaged DNA. mediated by p53

between G2 and M - sees if size/organelles are adequate for replication, p53 also plays role

Q

what is inclusive fitness?

Q

difference between darwin, neodarwin and punctuated equilibrium?

A

darwin - natural selection promotes evolution based on favorable traits that promote reproductive fitness

neo-darwin - modern - genetic recombination and mutation causes reproductive success, change is more likely to pass on to next generation - includes inclusive fitness (altruistic behavior)
-evolution happens evenly throughout time

punctuated equilibrium - that lineages stay the same for a long period of time, then there is a sudden burst of evolutionary change

Q

differences between peptide/steroid hormones:

what are they made of/from?
can they cross membrane?
water/lipid soluble?
transient or long lasting?
quick or slow onset?
how do they modulate transcription?
carrier protein or no?
where are the receptors?
A

peptide hormones – made of amino acids
- are charged so they cannot cross membrane – must bind to extracellular receptor as first messenger  activates secondary messengers to activate signaling cascade

possibility for amplification – one hormone molecule can bind multiple receptors

  • since peptide hormones work strictly through secondary messengers, they are transient and quickly turned on and off
  • water-soluble  does not carrier proteins

steroid hormones – derived from cholesterol (produced by gonads and adrenal cortex)
- lipid-soluble  requires carrier proteins
o often inactive while in carrier protein

carrier proteins can be specific or nonspecific

  • receptors are INTRACELLULAR/INTRANUCLEAR
  • hormone-receptor complex will bind DNA to increase/decrease transcription
  • slower process, but will last longer

Bacterial (extracellular) infections 1. macrophages will phagocytose bacteria and MHC II will present antigen on cell surface 2. will attract inflammatory cells such as neutrophils and more macrophages 3. mast cells will release histamine to dilate vessels and allow more immune cells to localize 4. dendritic cells then leave infection and travel toward lymph nodes to present antigen to B-cells 5. B- cells produce Ab through clonal selection to create plasma and memory cells 6. Ab will travel to site of infection and tag bacteria for destruction 7. dendritic cells will also present antigen to T cells - CD4+ cells activated which recruits more macrophages 8. plasma B cells die after infection is gone, but memory B and T cells remain

72
where is the largest pressure drop in circulation?
from the arterioles to capillaries (because capillaries cannot withstand that much pressure)
73
cooperative binding of oxygen to hemoglobin?
cooperative binding: as first oxygen binds to hemoglobin, it changes conformation from taut to relaxed - this makes it easier for subsequent oxygen to bind as first oxygen leaves, it changes conformation resulting in subsequent release of oxygen
