Q

What happens to a red blood cell in a hypertonic solution.? Explain why

A

It Crenates or shrinks and becomes wrinkled.
Because there is More solute outside of the cell and less water so the water inside the cell comes out to achieve equilibrium

Q

What happens to a red blood cell in a hypotonic solution.? And explain why

A

Hemolysis or the cell swells and bursts.
Water moves into the cell because outSide of the cell there are less solute And more water. Causing water to come into the cell attempting to reach equilibrium causing it to swell and burst.

Q

Happens to red blood cell in an isotonic solution? Explain why

A

Nothing happens to the red blood cell because the concentration of solute inside and outside of the cell or equal so there’s no movement of water

17
Q

Is the boiling point of water in Fahrenheit and Celsius?

A

100°C and 212°F

18
Q

What Is iodine an indicator of? How does it change?

A

Iodine test for the presence of starch and it turns from a brownish yellow to a black When starch is present

19
Q

What is silver nitrate An indicator of? And what is the color change?

A

The test for the presence of salt and it turns from clear to a milky white When salt is present

20
Q

What is pH? What is an indicator of pH? And what are the color changes depending on the pH?

A

The pH I solution is a measure of its acidity or alkalinity Litmus paper test pH. If it is acidic it is pink and if it’s alkaline it turns blue.

21
Q

Define dialysis membrane

A

A membrane that has a specific pore size allowing Particles of a specific size to pass through.

22
Q

What is one physical and one biological example of diffusion?

A

Physical - the smell of food will diffuse into the entire room so it can be smelled everywhere
Biological - Oxygen and carbon dioxide moving in and out of a cell

23
Q

Describe one physical and one biological example of filtration

A

Physical - dirty air passes through an air filter and the dirty particles are removed from the air leaving clean air
Biological - calcium carbonate in a suspension passes through a filter and clear filtrate comes out the other side.

24
Q

Filtrate

A

The resulting fluid that passed through the membrane

25
Q

Describe one physical and one biological example of osmosis

A

Physical - rehydrating raisins - soak in water, water goes into the raisin
Biological - red blood cell experiment. Hypotonic sol water moves into cell = hemolysis
Hypertonic sol water moves out of the cell = crenate

26
Q

Describe an experiment of diffusion

A

Potassium permanganate placed in the center of a petri dish filled with distilled water. The distinct color of the potassium permanganate filters out through diffusion into the water Slowly coloring the entire solution

27
Q

Describe an experiment of osmosis

A

The osmometer experiment. A semi permeable sausage attached to a tube filled with a sucrose solution is immersed in a beaker of distilled water the water passes slowly through the membrane of the sucrose solution causing the water level to slowly rise.

28
Q

Describe an experiment of hemolysis

A

Two drops of blood are put into different Beakers with varying concentrations of a saline solution. The hypotonic solutions cause hemolysis the hypertonic solution is cause crenation the isotonic solution maintains the cell stable

29
Q

Describe an experiment for filtration

A

Calcium carbonate mixture which is cloudy just passed through a filter and the resulting filtrate is clear

30
Q

Describe a dialysis experiment

A

Make two sausages Of a selectively permeable membrane and fill them with a starch and salt solution. Place each in 2 different Petri dishes Filled with distilled water. Put drops of iodine in bowl A and put drops silver nitrate in Bowl B.
In bowl A The iodine was small enough to go through the semi permeable membrane and reacted with the solution inside showing the presence of starch turning it black. The starch was too big to go through the membrane leaving the Surrounding water the normal iodine color.
In bowl b The silver nitrate was too big to go through the membrane leaving the solution inside the sausage clear. The salt was small enough to go through the membrane reacting with the silver nitrate in the surrounding solution turning it cloudy.

31
Q

What are classes of biological molecules?

A

Proteins carbohydrates lipids and nucleic acid

32
Q

What is dehydration synthesis

A

Chemical reaction were monomers are linked and turned into polymers. It’s called dehydration synthesis because a molecule of water is removed.

33
Q

What is an enzyme?

A

Biological catalyst speed up the rate of chemical reactions And helps break down polymers into monomers. Without itself going through any chemical change.

34
Q

What is a catalyst

A

Helps a chemical reaction occur by lowering the amount of energy needed for it to occur Without itself going through any chemical change.

35
Q

What is a substrate

A

The reactant an enzyme acts upon

36
Q

What is the product

A

The end result of a chemical reaction between an enzyme and a substrate

37
Q

What is an indicator

A

Indicator undergoes a observable reaction one introduced to a specific chemical for example iodine turns black in the presence of starch.

38
Q

What is amylase

A

An enzyme that breaks down starch and glycogen into simple sugars

39
Q

What is lipase

A

And enzyme that hydrolyzes triglycerides into mono glycerides and fatty acid. 3 Fatty acids and glycerol

40
Q

What is Benedict’s reagent

A

Indicates the presence of monosaccharides when heated to 90°C

41
Q

What happens to Amylase that’s 0°C 90°C and 37°C and why

A

90°C is too hot it becomes denatured
0°C is too cold it slows down
37° his body temperature and the enzyme works fastest.
