56
Q

if a blood cell is in a isotonic solution….

A

it is normal

A

the blood cell with comsume the solution until it explodes

58
Q

if a blood cell is in a hypertonic solution

A

all of the molecules leave the blood cell until the blood cell shrinks

59
Q

active transport

A

against the gradient and requires ATP in order to happen

60
Q

The movement of Oxygen from the lungs to the capillaries would best be described as…..

A

D) Diffusion because oxygen moves down its concentration gradient

61
Q

b) A small hydrophillic molecule, like glucose?

A

A large hydrophobic molecule, like testosterone, will diffuse across a lipid bilayer faster than a small hydrophilic molecule, like glucose. The lipid bilayer is mostly comprised of hydrophobic tails (see image below). The hydrophilic heads do orient themselves to the watery surface, but the “head” layer is extremely thin.

62
Q

hypertonic

A

does it have more salt than in the example? (ie .9 in his red blood cells?)

63
Q

hypotonic

A

fewer salt molocules than the saline in example

64
Q

isotonic

A

equal concentration as the example

65
Q

Nuclear Lamina

A

fibrillar network inside the nucleus of most cells. It is composed of intermediate filaments and membrane associated proteins- works with DNA

66
Q

Rough ER

A

studded with ribosome which synthesize proteins. The inside contains a space called the lumen which is where protien folding happens.

67
Q

why is it important for the rough ER to be connected to nucleus?

A

When proteins are made, the mRNA, which is made inside the nucleus, will leave through the pores and attach to the ribosomes.

68
Q

the Cis side of the golgi

A

closest to the RER and the nucleus

69
Q

the trans side of the golgi

A

oriented toward the plasma membrane

70
Q

Peroxisome

A

all eukaryotic cells have these bundles of enzymes that arise from the golgi and use them to break down toxins like alchohol

71
Q

lysosome

A

not found in plants- breaks up everything other than alchohol

72
Q

lysosome

A

Vesicles filled with enzymes. Lysosomes originate as buds from the RER and golgi. These enzymes digest macromolecules such as lipids. These enzymes also digest old, worn out organelles. Lysosomes also destroy pathogens such as bacteria.

73
Q

Phagocytosis

A

occurs when a cell engulfs a large particle then the lysosome merges with the particle and the enzymes destroy the entire particle

74
Q

Tay sachs disease

A

the lysosomes dont work and the lipids build up inside them

75
Q

mitochondria

A

grow and divide independently of the rest of the cell

76
Q

mitochondria

A

grow and divide independently of the rest of the cell AND contain their own circular DNA

77
Q

Mitochondrial DNA

A

neuclear DNA is enherited from both parents but mitochondrial DNA comes from the mother only.

78
Q

Dynamic Cytoskeleton

A

found in all eukaryotic cells, made of a dense network of interweaving protiens, functions include maintaining the shape of the cell, moving the cell and particles

79
Q

Kinesin

A

a motor protien that walks along the microtubual track

80
Q
  1. Salivary glands in the mouth make mucous and salivary amylase, an enzyme. Which organelle makes proteins such as enzymes?
A

Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum.

81
Q

Which Organelle breaks down large lipids?

A

the lysosome

82
Q

Who was Connor Hopf and why did he get sick? What were his symptoms?

A

Connor Hopf was a baby that inherited Tay Sach’s disease. Both of his parents were carriers for this disease, meaning that they each had one good copy of the gene that encodes for lysosomal enzymes and one copy of a bad gene that does not code for functional enzyme protein. Connor inherited both copies of the bad gene, thus he was unable to break down any of the large ceramide lipids in his brain. He developed seizures, became blind and could not eat. He died before his second birthday.

83
Q

The picture shown above depicts the nuclear envelope with the nuclear pore. The thins strands of DNA (called chromatin) are shown in pink. This DNA is very thin – thin enough to slide through the nuclear pore and yet the DNA inside the nucleus does not leave. Why?

A

Because the DNA is held in place by the nuclear lamina

84

91
Q

Overall equation for glycolisis

A

One 6 carbon compound (glucose) get converted to pyruvate, ATP, and NADH

92
Q

Electron transport chain

A

NADH goes from 1, 3, 4
FAHD2 is in 2
and hydrogen ions come out

93
Q

ATP

A

energy made up of 3 phosphate groups, ribose, and adenine

94
Q

why do the ATP bonds contain energy?

A

Because the negative charges repel each other. When a phosphate is released, the rest of the molecule is more stable and is at a lower energy state the more phosphates released the less energy (broek down to ADP and AMP

95
Q

Payoff phase

A

only PGAL can enter, so DHAP must be converted

96
Q

where does glycolisis occur?

A

in the cytoplasm

97
Q

Step 1 of cellular respiration

A

Glucose expels ATP and NADH and makes pyruvate

98
Q

Step 2 of cellular respiration

A

pyruvate expels NADH and co2 and become sacetyl coa

99
Q

step 3 of cellular respiration

A

acetyl coa goes through the citric acid cycle and expels ATP and NADH FADH2 CO2
