MTs vs. IFs vs. MFs
autophagy is digesting parts of cell or other cell, crinophagy is digestion of excess secretary products
- MFs are actin and deal w/ gross movement of the cell
- IFs are made up of many diff protein polymers. provide structural support for the cell (Resist mechanical stress)
- MTs help cells move (cilia or flagella) and help during mitosis (centrosomes (centrioles -> kinetochore)), form axon and use kinesin/dynein to shuttle things down axon

gap junctions vs tight junctions vs desmosomes
lytic vs. lysogenic viral replication
- gap junctions is a tunnel b/w cells that lets ions be shared b/w cells (cells for APs like cardiac muscle)
- tight junctions DO NOT let any ions move b/w cells
- desmosomes hold 2 cells together (by cytoskeleton) and allows ions to flow b/w cells to get by (cells w stress)
lytic cycle is when virus is impatient and keeps making more and reforming and lysing cell and spreading rapidly, lysogenic cycle is when virus is in latent phase and is part of host’s replicating genome, and then becomes active at some point
explain retrovirus and the roles of reverse transcriptase and integrase
- how is it different from lysogenic cycle?
viroids vs. prions
what’s made in adrenal cortex vs. medulla?
reverse transcriptase does RNA->DNA and then integrase cuts 3’ ends making sticky ends, which helps viral DNA integrate with host DNA
- NO LATENT PHASE
BOTH ARE INFECTIOUS
- viroids are small circular ssRNA; can self cleave to make more viroids
- prions have NO GENETIC MATERIAL, only made up proteins
cortex produces cortisol and aldosterone, medulla produces catecholamines (epi/norepi)
define self serving bias
bacterial transformation vs. conjugation vs. transposition vs. transduction
individuals experiencing self-serving bias attribute their own negative behaviors to situational variables
- transformation is moving part of bacterial DNA from chromosome to plasmid or vice versa
- conjugation uses F factor (F+) to link with F- and transfer copy of plasmid, making it F+ also
- transposition is taking DNA from environment and using it (can’t use it lysing agent is present)
- transduction is when viral DNA is injected into bacterial cell

intrinsic vs extrinsic motivation
one would need to have a more detailed account of the intelligence history of the participants’ families.
looks at how a specific child, at a specific age–usually today, now–performs intellectually, compared to average intellectual performance for that physical age, measured in years.
Intrinsic motivation involves doing something because it’s personally rewarding to you. Extrinsic motivation involves doing something because you want to earn a reward or avoid punishment.
what are the 3 stages of kohlberg’s moral development?
what is socialization?
what are piaget’s stages of cognitive development? what is mnemonic
- pre-moral
- obedience vs. punishment (reasoning is based on physical consequences of action)
- individualism vs. exchange (start to understand that diff. individuals have diff. viewpoints) - conventional
- good boy & good girl (child is good in order to be seen as good by others)
- law & order (child becomes aware of judgement, concern, things to uphold law) - post-conventional
- social contract (higher order thinking)
- universal ethical principle (people develop own set of moral guidelines)

hyper globalist vs skeptical perspective vs transformationalist perspective
master vs. achieved vs. ascribed status
- globalization as a legitimate process. Countries economies become interdependent as the nations states themselves become significantly less important
- today’s international processes as regionalized rather than globalized. third world countries aren’t being integrated into the global economy with the same benefits as first world countries
- national governments are changing, see that world order is changing. many factors that influence these changes.
- ascribed status is something you’re born into and doesn’t change
- achieved status is earned through own effort, own choice
- master status is an individuals most important status
explain Mead’s 3 stages
explain “I” vs “Me”
explain id vs. ego vs. superego and the gratification they require
- prepatory stage - imitation
- play stage - pretend play (focused on role taking)
- game stage - understand ideas of generalized other (society), multiple roles
“I” is the spontaneous and autonomous part of the self, “me” is the part of the self that is formed in interaction with others and with the general social environment
- the id is the primitive and instinctual part of the mind that contains sexual and aggressive drives and hidden memories, demands immediate gratification
- the ego is the part that mediates between the desires of the id and the superego (Perceptions, thoughts, and judgments). And it seeks long-term gratification
- the superego operates as a moral conscience
eustress vs distress
what is dispositional attribution?
what is the identity shift effect?
eustress is stress interpreted as being beneficial for the experiencer, distress is stress interpreted as being bad for the experiencer
dispositional attribution is internal attribution (e.g. blaming yourself for doing poorly on a test)
when an individual conforms to the norms of a group to avoid rejection
primary vs secondary appraisal
gemeinschaft vs. gesellschaft
primary is determining if the stressor is beneficial, negative, or irrelevant, secondary is determining how you can cope with it
- Gemeinschaft: groups unified by feelings of togetherness due to share beliefs, ancestry, geography (ex: families and neighborhoods)
- Gesellschaft: groups formed because of mutual self interests working towards the same goal (ex: companies and countries)
- think “mine” (my family), sell (companies)

crystallized accumulates over your life, increases or stays the same w/ age; fluid is ability to reason quickly/abstractly and decreases w/ age
what does TLC equal?
what does VC equal?
steroid hormones vs peptide hormones and examples of each
TLC = VC + RV

FALSE (irreversible)
In vitro means doing a test in a test tube/plate OUTSIDE of an organism; In vivo means doing a test on a living organism
functionalism
what is darwin’s theory of emotion?
ghrelin vs leptin vs orexin
theoretical framework that sees society as a complex system whose parts work together to promote solidarity and stability. It addresses society as a whole in terms of the function of its constituent elements; namely norms, customs, traditions, and institutions
emotions evolved because they had adaptive value, and that facial expressions of emotion are innate
- Ghrelin (grrr) stimulates appetite
- Leptin makes you feel full, suppressing appetite
