Q

 what organelles are involved in protein processing?

A

Protein processing occurs after protein synthesis
Involves rough ER that add carbohydrates or lipids to proteins as they pass through the inside of this organelle
Transport vesicles that take the proteins from the rough ER to the Golgi complex
Golgi complex that then packages and ships proteins out to their destination
Destination which can include lysosomes, peroxisomes and secretory vesicles

Q

Transformation

A

Any chemical reaction that turned one molecule into another molecule conversion of cholesterol into any of the steroids such as testosterone or cortisol

22
Q

Metabolism

A

Sum of all chemical reactions in the body

23
Q

Where is energy stored within molecules such as glucose and ATP

A

Covalent bonds

24
Q

When glucose is processed through cell respiration specifically where in ATP is the energy of glucose transferred?

A

Energy is transferred into the formation of the last covalent bond between phosphate and ADP to form ATP

25
General categories of function that sells can perform
Synthesize: monomers and polymers for growth repair regulation Transport: substances into (nutrients) and out of (waste, products) Cells or across line of cell Movement: Intracellular organelle transport, muscle contraction, beating of flagella and cilia, translocation of cells Communication: Between cells using chemical messengers (ligands) that bind to receptors (proteins)
26
A cell that detoxifies will have a greater density of
peroxisomes
27
A white blood cells that digest ingested pathogens would have a greater density of
Lysosomes
28
 A cell that requires a lot of energy for contraction would have a greater density of
Mitochondria
29
A cell that synthesizes a lot of protein hormone for secretion will have a greater density of
Rough endoplasmic reticulum
30
They sell that synthesizes a lot of proteins for use within the cell would have a greater density of
Free ribosomes
31
A cell that synthesizes a lot of steroid hormones for secretion will have a greater density of
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum
32
Energy for hearing
Sound energy
33
Energy for vision
Light energy
34
Energy for cellular respiration to produce ATP
Chemical energy
35
Energy for nerve conduction and initiation of muscle contraction
Electrical Energy
36
Energy for collision between molecules allowing for chemical reactions to occur
Mechanical energy
37
Describe the relationship between cell respiration and photosynthesis
Same chemical reaction in opposite directions
38
Laws of thermodynamics you burn a log completely where was all the energy
Originally the chemical bonds of the molecule that make up the wood. Heat energy you feel warm, light energy flames, sound energy crackling, chemical energy still remaining in molecules left in the ash and smoke First law energy stored in word is transferred to all the energy forms mentioned Second energy lol highly organized structure of the word becomes more disorganized (higher entropy) as it is transferred to the many energy forms
39
law of thermodynamics in cell respiration 40% of energy within glucose molecules is converted to ATP molecules 60% is given office heat
First law energy is transferred from glucose to ATP and he all energy is accounting for none is gain or lost Second law as energy is transferred more highly organized glucose molecules (low entropy) becomes less organized heat and ATP (higher entropy)
40
Is photosynthesis overall e ergo mix or endergonic
Photosynthesis is endergonic as energy from the sun is added to the system to create a higher energy molecule glucose
41
Is cell respiration overall exergonic or endergonic
Cell respiration is exergenic as energy within the covalent bonds and glucose is released as glucose is degraded
42
Exergonic
Release energy from a system ATP—> ADP +Pi Energy is released from breaking the covalent bond of the last phosphate group in ATP
43
Endergonic
Add energy to a system Energy release from covenant bonds of glucose is added to create the covalent bond between ADP and Pi. ADP +Pi —> ATP
44
What is phosphorylation, source of phosphate, consequence when the protein is phosphorylated, what happens to the protein when it’s dephosphorylated
Phosphorylation is adding a phosphate to a molecule phosphate comes from ATP consequence the proteins changes shape when phosphate group is covalently attached dephosphorylation is when phosphate is removed from a protein
45
Name the enzyme that adds phosphate to a protein
Kinase
46
Name enzyme that removes phosphate from and proteins
Phosphatase
47
What is phosphorylation cascade?
Signaling pathway where a chain of chemical reactions is activated by phosphorylation of enzymes resulting in the magnification of the response in the cell
48
What is the primary benefit to the process in cells that creates a phosphorylation cascade
A phosphorlation to say magnified the cell response. One ligand binds to one receptor which without a phosphorylation Cascade can cause one response in the cell by comparison using a phosphorylation cascade one ligand binding to 1 receptor can cause 1000 times the response
49
What are the three steps in cell respiration and where in the cell do they care
Glycolysis occurs in the cytosol Krebs cycle occurs in the inner mitochondrial matrix electron transport chain occurs in the inner mitochondrial membrane
50
Functions cell perform
Synthesize monomers transform into polymers for growth, repair, and regulation Cells also transport substances into and out of cell membranes Another function cells have is for movement muscle cells contract, organelles transport, and the translocation of cells Communication is a function also in cells use chemical messengers that bind to receptors
51
Proteins that perform functions in cell
Synthesize- enzymes Transport- membrane transporter Movement- motor proteins Communication: listening - receptors Speaking- messenger molecule
