chapter 1 - 5 Flashcards
characteristic of living thing and explain
- movement = they move
- growth = grow bigger by the growth of cells or by adding more cells
- sensitivity = detect sense stimuli and respond to them
- reproduction = produce offspring
- excretion = remove toxic waste product of metabolism.
- nutrition = take in nutritious substance to provide energy.
- respiration = chemical reaction in cells break down nutrient molecule and release energy for metabolism

mention all cell structures
- cell membrane
- cell wall
- chlorophyll
- cytoplasm
- vacuoles
- nucleus
function of cell membrane
layer of protein and fat that controls what goes into and out of the cell , lets some substance in and not others so they are partially permeable.
function of cell wall
protects and supports the cell, fully permeable because lets any substance in and out
what group does cellulose belong to
polysaccharides
function of cytoplasm
made up of 70% water so many substances especially protein dissolved in it also where metabolic reaciton takes place.
function of vacuoles
spaces surrounded by cell membrane that contains solution. plant have large vacuole, animals have small vacuole
what is the name of the animals vacuole
vesicle
what does plant vacuole contain
sugar solution and cell sap
what does animal vacuole contain
nutrients and water
funtion of choloroplast
contain chlorophyll that absorbs sunlight for photosynthesis. contain starch made by photosynthesis
function of nucleus
store genetic information and help cells make the right sorts of protein.
where is information kept
in nucleus in the chromosomes that is inherited from organism’s parents.
explain the meaning of diffusion
a net movement of molecules and ions from high to low concentration
explain osmosis
the net movement of water molecules and is a situation where a water molecules pass through a partially permeable membrane also called a visking tubing
what is a solvent
a liquid substance in which solute is dissolved in
what is a solute
a substance that is dissolved
what is hypertonic
a solution with low water potential and high concentration of solute
what is hypotonic
a solution with high water potential and low concentration of solute
what is isotonic
having the same concentration of solute in both sides of the permeable membrane
explain the process of osmosis happening in animal cell that burst
burst out when cytoplasm have high concentration than outside of it because more water enters the cell and swells. the cell get bigger and bigger and eventually burst
explain the process of osmosis happening in animal cell that shrinks
shrinks when cytoplasm have low concentration that outside of it because water diffuses out of the cell making the cell shrinks
explain the process of osmosis happening in plant cell that is turgid
happens when there is high water potential than cell content so water diffuses into the cell causing the cytoplasm to press outwards and cell wall resist.
explain the process of osmosis happening in plant cell that is flaccid
hhappens when there is low water potential that cell content so water diffuses out of the cell causing the cell to be floppy. cell wall is left behind and cell membrane tears away from cell wall and is said to be plasmolysed.
what is haemolysis
when cell burst in a more dilute solution
what is crenate
when a cell shrinks in a more concentrated solution
what is osmoregulation
involves kidney ensures because concentration of blood stays the same as concentration of cell contents
what is active transport
movement of dissolved molecules from low to high concentration
why is water important to living organism
because water is the only solvent that can dissolve many substances such as enzymes and nutrients. and metabolic reaction can only take place in water.
what are type of nutrient
carbohydrate , protein, fat, vitamin, minerals
what does protein contains that carbo and fat dont
nitrogen, and sometimes sulfur
what is carbohydrate
simple sugars
sugars contain how many c h and o ?
6 c, 12 0, 6 h
monosaccharides include…
glucose and fructose
disaccharides include..
sucrose, maltose and lactose
what does sucrose compose of
glucose and and fructose, 2 monosaccharides
what does maltose compose of
2 glucose units
what does lactose compose of
galactose and glucose
what is polysaccharides
many simple sugar that join together
example of polysaccharides
starch and glycogen
where is starch found
plants
where is glycogen found
animals
what do we use to see the presence of sugar
benedict solution that must be heated
what do we use to see the presence of starch
iodine solution
what color will benedict change if sugar is present
blue to brick red
what color will iodine change if starch is present
brown to navy
what is the function of carbohydrate
needed for energy, plants store carbohydrate as starch and animals store carbohydrate as glycogen or polysaccharide glycogen
what does plant transport ?
sucrose
difference between reducing and non reducing sugars
reducing sugars have oh and can reduce other components while non reducing sugars dont have oh and cannot reduce other components
example of reducing sugars
all simple sugars and some complex sugars
what are fats
known as lipids made up of fatty acid and glycerol joined together
what is used to see if fat is present
using ethanol solution
what happened to ethanol if fat is present
milky white cloud called emulsion is produced at the surface if the solution
where is saturated fat found in
animal
where is unsaturated fat or poliunsaturated fat found in
plant
function of fat
help provide energy, and insulates the body

explain how enzymes work
- substrate collides with active site of enzyme
- enzyme break down the substrate
- enzyme change substrate to product
- product is then released from active site
what happens to the enzyme that can no longer fit substrates
become denatured and no longer work
what is active site
has a complementary shape to fit its substrate
what happens when enzyme is denatured
permanently damaged and the enzyme no longer works
