Q

What is the structure and function of channel proteins

A
  • Allows ions to pass
  • They are gated; open or closed in response to stimulus (chemical or electrical)
  • 3 conditions determine direction
    ( relavtive concentration, voltage differences, gated open or closed)

Q

What is the structure and function of carrier protiens

A
  • Help transport ions and other solutes ( sugar and amino acids)
  • Requires a concentration difference across the membrane
  • Must bind to the molecule they transport
  • Saturation - rate of transport limited by number of transporters

Q

Maintaining osmotic balance:

  1. Marine organisms adjust ____ ____to match seawatter.
  2. Terrestrial animals circulate ___ fluid throughout their bodies
  3. Plants use ____ ____ to push the cell membrane against the cell wall to keep the cell rigid.
A
  1. Internal concentration
  2. Isotonic
  3. Turgor Pressure
17
Q

Describe active transport.

Is ATP required?

A

Moves substances against their concentration gradients.

Requires energy; ATP.

18
Q

What are the types of carrier proteins?

A

Uniporters - moves 1 molecule
Symporters - moves 2 molecules
Anitporters - moves 2 molecules in opposite directions.
(terms can also be used to describe facilitated diffusion carrers)

19
Q

Describe Coupled transport. Does it use ATP?

A

Uses ATP indirectly
Symporter is used
Uses the energy released when a molecule moves by diffusion to supply energy to active transport of a different molecule.

20
Q

Bulk Transport-
Endocytosis is the movement of substances ___ the cell.
Exocytosis is the movement of substances ___ the cell.
Which requires energy?

A
  1. Into
  2. Out of
  3. Exocytosis
21
Q

Name the three types of endocytosis

A
  1. Phagocytosis (cellular eating)
  2. Pinocytosis (cellualr drinking)
  3. Receptor mediated endocytosis (specific molecules are taken in after they bind to a receptor)
22
Q

What is energy in motion?

A

Kinetic energy

23
Q

What is potential energy?

A

Stored energy (because of its location or structure)

24
Q

What is the first law of thermodynamics

A

Energy of the universe is constant

Energy can be transferred and transformed but not be created or destroyed.

25
Q

What is the second law of thermodynamics?

A

As energy increases so does disorder (entropy) increase.

26
Q

Exergonic reations ___ energy

A

release.

27
Q

Energonic reations ___ energy

A

stores

28
Q

Anabolic reactions:

A

Expend energy to build up molecules, endergonic

29
Q

Catabolic reactions:

A

Harvest energy by breaking down molecules, exergonic

30
Q

What is Phosphorylation?

A

Hydrolysis of ATP releases energy by transferring its third phosphate from ATP to some other molecule

31
Q

What is activation energy?

A

the energy needed to start a chemical reaction

32
Q

How do enzymes affect activation energy?

A

Enzymes lower activation energy therefore speeding up the process.

33
Q

What are non protein helpers to enzymes? Where does it bind?

A

cofactors bind to active sites.

34
Q

What is an organic cofactor?

A

coenzyme

35
Q

Name the 2 types of enzyme inhibitors and what they do

A

competitive - binds with the active site and noncompetitive binds with the allosteric site and changes the shape of the enzyme

36
Q

Cellular respiration can produce up to ___ ATP molecules for each glucose.

A

32

37
