Cumulative Exam Part 2 Flashcards
What are the 2 classes of cells?
Somatic, sex
What organic molecules are included in the cell membrane?
Lipids, proteins, carbohydrates
Proteins within the membrane
Integral protein
Proteins bound to the inner or outer surface of the membrane
Peripheral protein
What are the functions of membrane proteins?
Recognition, carrier, receptors
Finger-shaped extensions of cell membrane to increase surface area for absorption
Microvilli
Small hair-like extensions that move fluids across the cell surface
Cilia
Synthesizes proteins, encloses products in transport vesicles which carry proteins to Golgi body
Rough ER
Produce ATP for the cell
Mitochondria
Where does glycolysis occur?
Cytosol
What happens during glycolysis?
Glucose is converted into 2 pyruvate
Where does aerobic respiration (Cellular respiration) occur?
Mitochondria
What happens during aerobic respiration?
CO2 is removed from pyruvate, oxygen is used and water comes out as a product
Contains instructions to make every protein in the body
DNA
Loosely coiled DNA (cells not dividing)
Chromatin
Tightly coiled DNA (Cells dividing)
Chromosomes
Somatic cells have __ chromosomes
46
Enzymes copy directions from DNA to mRNA
Transcription
Ribosomes read codon on mRNA and tRNA anticodon delivers an amino acid to mRNA codon in ribosome; mRNA codon is translated into 1 amino acid
Translation
Plasma membrane allows some materials to move freely
Selectively permeable
Diffusion of water across the cell membrane
Osmosis
Diffusion that requires energy
Active transport
Solution that does not cause osmotic flow of water in or out of a cell
Isotonic
Less solutes and loses water through osmosis
Hypotonic
What happens to a cell in a hypotonic solution?
Water moves into the cell; lyse
