Other Flashcards
what are the 3 main components of behavior (think ABC)
relative vs. absolute poverty
- affective (emotion)
- behavioral
- cognitive
relative is inability to pay for things that others can afford, absolute is inability to pay for essentials
what granulocyte is most similar to macrophages?
what does carboxylase do?
what is game theory?
neutrophils
adds CO2
branch of decision theory focusing on interactive decisions whenever the actions of 2+ decision makers jointly determine an outcome that affects them all (e.g. prisoner’s dilemma)
what thyroid hormone regulates metabolism?
what is goiter?
what is egocentrism? ethnocentrism?
thyroxine (T4)
increased mass of thyroid
egocentrism is narcissism, that you are the center of attention and cant see things from other points of view
- ethnocentrism is the idea that your culture is superior
what is trait perspective?
what is spreading activation?
escape vs. avoidance learning
individual personality can be broken into countless stable traits across human culture
activating parts of your semantic network through association/memory (e.g. firetruck)
escape is performing a behavior to terminate an unpleasant stimulus, avoidance is avoiding stimulus ahead of time b/c of a signal

what are heuristics?
what is goffmans theory of dramaturgy
up and right is:
IE, EN, Zeff, nonmetallic character
down and left is:
AR, metallic character
mental shortcuts
the idea of front vs back stage
lysosomal autophagy vs. crinophagy
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
embryogenesis derivatives
if there is no data skew in one direction, then what kind of error is impossible?
what are somatic cells?
- endoderm - forms GI tract, lungs, liver, pancreas
- mesoderm - inner skin layers, muscle, bone, heart, kidneys, bladder, sex organs
- ectoderm - outer layer of skin, hair, nervous system
systematic error
cells that aren’t germline cells, they undergo mitosis and are identical
where does glycolysis occur? CAC? ETC?
how many NADH and FADH2 are produced after glycolysis and CAC for 1 pyruvate? 2 pyruvates?
cytoplasm, inner membrane space (of mitochondria), inner space then pumps H+ into matrix
5 NADH and 1 FADH2, 10 NADH and 2 FADH2
what are the BCL-2 cells in mitochondria? what are the 2 types?
what is a caspase and what is it activated by?
what vapor pressure equal ambient pressure, what happens?
BCL-2 cells are associated w/ apoptosis, pro and anti apoptotic
C-ASP-ASE is a protease that cleaves after Asp residues using a cysteine residue
- activated by cytC being released from mitochondria
boiling point is reached
what does red litmus paper do?
what is faraday’s constant in C? avogadros # for Vol. of 1mol of gas at STP?
what are units of Intensity?; units for diopters?
red litmus paper turns blue in presence of a base
10^5C; 22.4
W/m^2; m^-1
what is visual color spectrum mnemonic and parameters?
when is an acid inorganic? what doesn’t change in refraction?
for autosomal dominant mutations, is it 1 or 2 copies of mutated alleles?
ROYGBV (400nm-700nm red is biggest)
when it doesn’t include carbons; FREQUENCY
can be 1 or 2 copies
explain polarity of product and Rf value
explain high or low Ka and pKa for strong acids
If product is more polar than starting material, it has a lower Rf than starting material
strong acids have HIGH Ka’s and LOW pKa’s
what is change in sound level equation (dB)?
what is intensity equation?
what is equation for power and focal length, what does +P and -P mean?
deltaB = 10log(If/Ii)
I=P/A
P = 1/f = 1/di + 1/do (+P means convex, -P means concave)
what is equation for pipe open at one end for wavelength?
what is equation for relating intensity and mol e- and faraday’s constant and time?
what are signs of the nodes for galvanic vs. electrolytic cells?
lambda = 4L/n
I (t) = mol e- (F)
galvanic cell anode is negative and cathode is positive, electrolytic cell cathode is negative and anode is positive
what is the sign for focal length for diverging lens?
what is the only image formed by a diverging lens?
explain diff b/w + vs - enantiomers
-f
virtual, upright, and reduced
a + compound rotates the plane of polarized light clockwise, a - compound rotates plain of light counterclockwise
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
sleep stages N1 vs N2 vs N3
what are the components/percentages of E. Coli’s cell membrane?
T or F platelets have nuclei
- N1 - theta waves, stage b/w sleep & wakefulness, hallucinations
- N2 - sleep spindles/K complexes, deeper sleep
- N3 - delta waves, hard to arouse
75% protein, 25% phospholipids BY MASS
FALSE
what happens to a charged particle in an electric field (movement)?
which direction do electric field lines point?
if liquid is higher inside than outside, what does that mean about ambient pressure?
it accelerates in the direction that attracts it
from positive to negative
if level of liquid inside is higher than outside, that means ambient pressure is higher than inside pressure
T or F, mRNA processing occurs in prokaryotes
do favorable primers have high or low GC content?location on strands?
what isomers (L or D) are used during ribosomal protein synthesis
FALSE
suitable primers have high GC content and GC pairs at 5’ and 3’ ends
L-isomers
what organelle is there a lot of in brown adipose tissue?
in the absence of oxygen, what does pyruvate get turned into? where does it not go?
cytochrome c carries how many e- ?
mitochondria (for thermogenesis)
in the absence of oxygen, pyruvate is converted to lactate in the cytoplasm and is not transported to the mitochondria to be converted to acetyl-CoA

What is Nondisjunction and when does it occur?
what is social reproduction?
what is social stratification?
Nondisjunction happens during anaphase, when a pair of homologous chromosomes do not separate before being distributed into two daughter cells
the reproduction of social inequalities throughout generations
refers to a system by which a society ranks categories of people in a hierarchy. In the United States, it is perfectly clear that some groups have greater status, power, and wealth than other group
conflict theory perspective emphasizes social relations of _____, ______, and _______ as the driving forces in society.
what is anomie? what does it lead to?
describe spearman’s idea of general intelligence
capital, power, and status
anomie refers to a lack of social norms, which leads to a breakdown in the connection between an individual and their community
we have 1 general intelligence (g factor) that could predict our outcomes in varying academic areas
