Q

Define:

Cytosol

A

• Portion of the cell between the nucleus and the plasma
membrane exclusive of the membrane-bound organelles;

• The cortical cytoplasm just under the plasma membrane
has a distinct arrangement of cytoskeletal elements which
excludes organelles and maintains the stiff gel form of the
cell.

Q

Functions of Smooth ER? (3)

A

• Detoxification (detoxifies lipid-soluble and water-soluble
substances into water-soluble compounds)

• Synthesizes phospholipids and cholesterol, which are
lipids necessary for turnover of cell membranes (both the
plasma membrane as well as the membranes of
organelles)

• Abundant in steroid-producing cells

Lysosomes can be formed via:

A. Endocytosis

B. Autophagy

C. Phagocytosis

D. All of the above

A

D. All of the above (formed, or pathway? go over)

Endocytosis:
• Small molecules are taken up by the cell and directed to vesicles called endosomes, which eventually form lysosomes
Autophagy:
• Worn-out organelles are broken down by lysosomal activity
Phagocytosis:
• Phagocytic vesicles are formed by cells specialized for the uptake of bacteria, viruses, and large particles.

22
Q

A

• Constitutive secretory pathway:
• Does not require a triggering reaction

  • Selective exocytosis:
  • Of stored granules
  • Requires triggering signal

OUTLINE THE COMPLEXES, slide 26-28

25
Q

Which has a higher affinity for electrons, Complex V or Complex II?

A

Complex V,

as you travel down the chain electron affinity MUST increase so that the electrons keep moving.

F1 particles
ATP synthesis
• Electron transport chain components
• Transport proteins
• Cardiolipin.
• Proteins for generation of energy and export and import

A

True

32
Q

From Anaerobic to the end of aerobic respiration you start with _______

and end with ______.

A

Energy-rich glucose molecule,

End with: low energy carbon dioxide, water, and a lot of ATP

33
Q

What does the endosymbiotic theory suggest?

A

that mitochondria evolved from prokaryotes

• Mitochondria may have been derived from α-proteobacteria which
were capable of oxidative phosphorylation.

• Instead of being digested, the α-proteobacteria may have been
retained as symbionts.

• Mitochondria have circular DNA (similar to prokaryotes).

34
Q

T/F: Many mitochondrial genes may have been transposed to nuclear DNA.

A

True

35
Q

T/F: You get your mitochondria from your father

A

False

• Mitochondrial DNA follows maternal inheritance patterns.

36
Q

What is the function of Peroxisomes and what enzyme do they contain?

A

Catalase

• Catalase utilizes hydrogen peroxide as a substrate to oxidize
other molecules such as ethanol

• Oxidize a variety of substances to hydrogen peroxide (hence their
name) and break down hydrogen peroxide using catalase
• Synthesize lipids such as cholesterol
• Synthesize lysine
• Synthesize bile acids from cholesterol
