Q

What does heterotroph mean?

A

Cant make own food (us humans)

22
Q

Where does glycolysis occur?

A

Inside cytoplasm

23
Q

How is glucose broken down in glycolysis?

A

By adding 2 ATP molecules per glucose

24
Q

Where does the citric acid cycle occur?

A

In the matrix, the fluid of the mitochondria

25
Where does ETC occur?
In the inner mitochondria membrane
26
What negative effect can occur without ETC?
Death due to lack of ATP in the body
27
What are the three components that make up 1 nucleotide?
Nitrogen base, sugar, phosphate group
28
Sugar phosphate backbone (on DNA) are made up of what type of bonds?
Covalent bonds (strong)
29
Base binding DNA double helix are made up of what bonds?
Hydrogen bonds
30
What are the two components to DNA replication and their functions?
Helicase- unwinds+ unzips DNA double helix | DNA polymerases- Make daughter strand
31
How do you identify a semiconservative process?
A daughter DNA molecule with one new DNA strand and one old
32
Going from DNA to RNA is called.....
Transcription
33
Going from RNA to protein is called.....
Translation
34
What comes first in DNA function?
Transcription first! Translation second!
35
Every 3 bases in RNA is called what? And what does it equal to?
a codon. It is equal to one amino acid
36
Where does transcription and translation occur? What cells are they in?
Transcription occurs in nucleus Translation occurs in cytoplasm (Past cell membrane) Only in eukaryotic cells!! (BC HAS NUCLEUS)
37
What is the beginning of a gene called?
Promoter
38
An 'A' in DNA pairs with what letter in RNA? Why?
'U' | Because there is not T sugar in RNA
39
When DNA copies itself RNA gets what on the ends?
5'cap, and 3'tail on either end
40
What are introns and exons and their functions?
They make up DNA Introns dont hold encode for protein Exons do hold encode for protein
41
Do introns or eons make it to final mRNA?
Exons
42
What is the makeup of mRNA?
5'cap, exons, 3'cap
43
What do ribosomes do during translation?
Helps bring mRNA and tRNA together
44
What occurs in DNA replication? What are the steps to this?
DNA is copied Helicase unzips DNA DNA polymerases creates base-pairing covalent bonds in daughter strand
45
What occurs in protein synthesis or DNA function?
DNA is translated into mRNA | mRNA leaves the double membrane
46
What are the steps to transcription?
Transcription Initiation: DNA promoter is located through signaling RNA polymerases attaches to promoters RNA Elongation: RNA polymerases reads DNA and creates complementary base pairings for RNA (not T only U!!) Transcription Termination: RNA polymerases reaches terminator of DNA and stops transcribing
47
After transcription what happens to mRNA?
It is processed before leaving. A 5' cap and 3' tail are added Introns are taken out for consolidation
48
What is attached to tRNA?
1 amino acid
49
What do ribosomes do in mRNA processing? And what bonds are involved?
Brings newborn mRNA and tRNA together | Peptide bonds
50
After mRNA is processed in the ribosome it leaves the nucleus next. True or false
False! It must get processed first. A 5' cap and 3' tail is added. Introns are removed
