Chpt 7 Benchmark Flashcards
what are the 4 macromolecules?
lipids, carbohydrate, nucleic acid, protein
what are the building blocks of macromolecules?
monomers
what are the 4 macromolecules’ monomers?
carbohydrates : monosaccharide
lipid: glycerol & fatty acids
nucleic acids : nucleotide
protein : amino acids
what are the 4 macromolecules’ functions?
carbohydrates: act as quick energy source well structure for plants
lipid: provide long term energy storage, support for cell membrane
nucleic acids: genetic info
protein: muscle building, growth, structure, fighting disease
what kind of macromolecules are enzymes?
protein
what is the lock and key model?
enzymes and its substrate
what are the three conditions that affect enzymatic activity?
temperature, ionic conditions, ph
are you able to differentiate between a catalyze do (enzyme - induced) and non catalyzed reaction on q graph?
the one without enzyme is higher, the with an enzyme has an enzyme
name two most distinct things about prokaryotic cells
no nucleus free float DNA
what are the 2 different types of eukaryotic cells? how are they different?
animal cells and plant cells
they’re different the plant cell has a cell wall and a chloroplast animal cell doesnt
what are the 3 steps to the “central dogma” of biology?
DNA -> RNA + PROTEIN
how do proteins differ from one another?
of sequence and amino acids differ
what is the ER? what’s it’s function? what’s the difference between smooth er and rough er?
site where lipid components of the cell membrane are assembled
rough ER makes lipids, folds proteins
what is the function of the Golgi apparatus?
sorts and packages proteins
what’s the primary function of the cell membrane?
regulates what enters and leaves the cell
