MATC 1 Flashcards
Body temp maintained
with help of water , sweat, as insulator, etc.
hyphothalamus in the brain regulates temperature
98
efferent means
away
afferent
towards
potential vs kinetic energy
stored, in use
contact inhibition
when cells stop doing mitosis when they run into each other
tight junctions vs gap junctions
cell membranes joined together tightly forming impermeable membrane,
hollow tubes, space to allow ions to pass
Kinase def
An enzyme that activates other molecules by phosphorylizing them!

monocular lens
compound: high magnification, uses compound lens system
CHONPs
important hydrocarbons in our body also contain hydrogen, nitrogen, phosphorus
-OSE suffix means its a
sugar
hexoses important for us
- glucose– most common, most others turned into this as our cells use it as main energy source (cellular respiration)
- fructose
- galactose
C6H12O6
dissacarides
are 2 mono saccharides joined together by dehydration synthesis
Sucrose made up of
1 glucose + 1 fructose
Maltose made of
2 Glucose (found in beer)
Lactose
1 glucose + 1 galactose
Dehydration synthesis
forming a bond while loosing a water molecule, occurs when polymers are being made
polymers of glucose found in plants and animals
Starch- from plants
Glycogen- animal sugar storage
