Exam 1 Flashcards
List the Hierarchy of Complexity (9)
Atom Molecule Macromolecule Organelle Cell Tissue Organ Organ System Organism
“Ammo C Tooo”
List the characteristics of water (5)
Solvent Adhesive Cohesive Chemical Reactivity Thermal Stability
SACCRTS
List the functional groups and their appropriate symbol (5)
Hydroxyl (OH) Methyl (CH3) Carboxyl (COOH) Amino (NH2) Phosphate (H2PO4)
List the Monosaccharides (5)
Glucose Fructose Galactose Ribose Deoxyribose
List the Polysaccharides (3)
Glycogen (animal energy storage)
Starch (plant energy storage)
Cellulose (plant cell wall)
List the features of Enzymes (5)
Protein (monomer amino acid) Specific Not Consumed Lower the activation energy Active or Binding site present
What are the levels of protein structure? (4)
Primary Structure - first level, sequence of amino acids joined by peptide bonds
Secondary Structure - Hydrogen bonds interactions are responsible, beta sheet or alpha helix formed
Tertiary Structure - half proteins in your body are done by this one, other chemicals in the reaction groups cause the shape changes (unpredictable think ugly ribbon)
Quaternary Structure - two pieces of protein are made separately as subunits (polypeptide chain) or preformed subunits put together to form protein
What are the components of Nucleotides (3)
Pentose Sugar
Nitrogenous Base
Phosphate Group
What are the steps in Aerobic Cellular Respiration? (3)
Glycolysis (in cytoplasm)
Matrix Reactions (in matrix)
Electron Transport Chain (Inner Mitochondrial Membrane)
Cell Theory (2)
Everything that is alive is made of at least one cell
Cells come form pre-existing cells
Nucleus
Organelle, DNA located here
Ribosome
Tiny little organelle floating around cytoplasm job is PROTEIN SYNTHESIS/ MAKE protein
Mitochondria
Energy production ATP Power plant of cell, organelle
Cytoplasm
Watery juice where everything swims, GLYCOLYSIS occurs here
Membrane
Skin of cell, PHOSPHOLIPID Bilayer
