Lipid monomer
Fatty acid
Lipids
Long term energy
nucleic acid monomer
nucleotide
nucleic acid
Store info, DNA,RNA
Proteins monomer
Amino acid
Protein
Structure normal, enzyme
Saturated fats at room temperature
solid
Unsaturated fats at room temperature
liquid
What’s the job of an enzyme?
speed up chemical reactions
What can change the effectiveness of an enzyme?
Temperature PH enzyme, concentration
Mitochondria
Energy producing (ATP)
Chloroplast
Site of photosynthesis green pigment
Golgi apparatus
Package and distribute proteins
Rough ER
synthesize proteins dotted
Smooth ER
Synthesize lipids (makes)
cell membrane
thin, flexible barrier around a cell; regulates what enters and leaves the cell
Ribosome
Around rough ER responsible for protein
prokaryotic
No nucleus (bacteria DNA)
Eukaryotic
Has a nucleus (plants animals humans)
What are three parts to the cell theory?
all organisms are made of cells, all existing cells are produced by other living cells, the cell is the most basic unit of life
Diffusion
Movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.
facilitated diffusion
Goes to get a channel high to low
Osmosis
Absorption of water high to low
Endocytosis
Tries to kill bacteria in gulps it
Exocytosis
takes waste puts it in extra cellular space
sodium-potassium pump
protein channels where sodium and potassium are transported against the concentration gradient
