biochem lesson 1-3 Flashcards
electrolytes that maintain osmotic pressure and water distribution in the various body fluid compartment
Sodium, chloride, and potassium
these electrolytes that participate in catalaysis as cofactor for enzymes
Magnesium, calcium, and zinc
these are electrolytes that participate in the regulation of proper function of the heart and other muscles
Potassium magnesium and calcium
These electrolytes maintain the proper pH or acid-base balance
Bicarbonate potassium and chloride
This involved in oxidation reduction reactions
Electrolytes
This electrolyte is important in releasing of hormones and regulation of nerves found more in the ICF
Calcium
Regulate muscle and nerve actions also used in DNA synthesis found more in the ICF
Magnesium
Used as a building block in cell energy, predominant an ion in intracellular than extracellular
Phosphate
Electrolyte that regulates fluid muscle contraction and normal blood pressure
Potassium
It is predominant cation in the ICF
Potassium
This electrolyte maintains as a balance, and it can be found in the ICF and ECF
Bicarbonate
It is the biggest and major buffer of the body
Bicarbonate
Maintains pH, facilitate flows off oxygen and carbon dioxide within the cell
Chloride
Predominant anion in the ECF
Chloride
osmotically active cation in the extracellular fluid
Sodium
Fluid that fills up the blood vessel
Intravascular fluid
Fluid that fills up of the spaces between or around cells
Interstitial fluid
It is found in the lymph cerebrospinal fluid and phlegm
Interstitial fluid
Total composition of intravascular fluid
1/3 or 7%
Total composition of interstitial fluid
2/3 or 26%
Fluid that fill up the spaces of chambers formed from the lining of the epithelial cells
Transcellular fluid
The body fluid located outside the cell of an organism
Extracellular fluid
The body fluid located within the cell of an organism
Intracellular fluid
Total body water composition in extra cellular fluid
26%
Total body water composition in intracellular fluid
67%
It is an irregular shape of RBC: Indication of severe dehydration
Burr cell
Anything that flows or assumes the shape of its container
Liquid
Takes up 50 to 60% of the body mass
Fluid
It is a water-based liquid containing ions sell solutes that is essential in transporting products of metabolism such as nutrients
Fluid
With electrolytes and dissolve molecules
Fluid
Series of reactions regenerate the first reactant
Cyclic metabolic pathway
Materials that are needed will branch out
Branch metabolic pathway
Series of reactions generates a final product
Linear metabolic pathway
Chemical messengers produced or released by the organs to influence reactions
Hormones
catalyst that speeds up the reaction
Enzyme
Enzyme for digestion
amylase and pepsin
Hormone for digestion
Gastrin
hormones for cellular level or diagnosis for diabetes
Insulin
True or false: metabolic pathways prevents very large chemical energy releases which would be damaging to cells
True
Metabolic pathaways does not allow pathways to be directed to different end products
False because it allows
True or false: metabolic pathways do not permit control of the rate and direction of the cellular activity
False because it permits
Metabolic pathways permits branch point
true
It is an organize sequence of chemical reactions
Metabolic pathways
It is similar to synthetic work and involves reactants and the product
Chemical work
Acts as a gateway to allow glucose or other material to enter or exit
Channel protein
Similar to osmotic work as the ions or substances are going in and going out of the concentration gradient
Transport work
Glucose breaks down the bands to convert to ATP, what cellular work is this?
Synthetic work
a change in chemical bonds required to generate complex molecules from simple precursors
Synthetic work
Compounds and ions are often move against a concentration gradient
Osmotic or electrical work
Water go against the high concentration of salt in the plasma membrane and what type of work is this
Electrical work
Change of location or posture of an organism cell or cellular structure
Mechanical work
What type of work that when DNA molecules move toward each other to form a helix
Mechanical work
Starting point in krebs cycle
Pyruvate
end product of krebs cycle
ATP
Ends with ATP and pyruvate
Glycolytic pathway
