Chapter 5: The working cell Flashcards
what is the optimal pH for the most enzymes is what
is near pH of 7
what are the ways of active transport
simple diffusion, osmosis, facilitated diffusion
exocystosis
also know as secretion, requires energy - active trasport, the exiting of products
all cells carry out what type of endocytosis
pinocytosis
what is the function of cofactors/coenzymes
help enzymes work better
junction proteins
form intercellular junction that attach adjacent cells to each other
list the order from most energy to least
ATP, ADP, AMP
what makes up animal plasma membrane
phospholipids, cholesterol, glycolipids, glcoproteins, other membrane proteins
pepsin works best at what pH
acidic pH, 2
which osmosis solution does plant love
hypotonic solution, it wont burst due to cell wall
competitive inhibitor
competes with substrate for enzymes active site
LDL
low density lipoprotein is a bad cholestrol that contains more cholesterol than proteins. it is brought into the cell my receptor mediated endocytosis
noncompetitive inhibitor
binds to enzymes allosteric site, causing the active site to be altered
active transport moved from ____ concentration to ______ concentration?
lower concentration to higher concentration
what is trypsin
enzymes of small intestine
pinocytosis is also known as
cellular drinking
concentration gradients
molecules move from regions of higher concentrations to lower
when adp turns into ______ by hydrolosis
amp-adenosine monophosphate with inorganic phosphate
aquaporins
water channels - membrane proteins that accelerate water movements across the membrane
food vacuole fuses with what to get contents digested
lysosomes
hypotonic
has much lower solutes than the cell
many enzymes made up of
proteins
what are the different ways of endocytosis
phagocytosis, pinocytosis, receptor-mediated endocytosis
enzymes
speed up rxns
example of exergonic reactions
cellular respiration
How does sodium potassium pump open to let ions into the cell
atp
functions of inhibitors
stop enzymes
hypertonic
has much higher solutes than the cell
inorganic cofactors are metal ions, what are they
cu2+,zn2+,and Fe2+
what controls enzymes
temperature, pH, cofactors/coenzymes, inhibitors
isotonic
has the same solutes as the cell
potassium concentration is greater on the inside or outside of the cell
inside
many enzymes names end in
-ase
how is photosynthesis an endergonic reaction
co2 needs sunlight to produce glucose. the sunlight is needed - the input of energy
endergonic reactions
require input of energy to proceed, products have more energy than reactants
