processes Flashcards
how an amino acid added to a polypeptide that’s is being formed at a ribosome during translation (3)
1-tRNA binds to specific amino acid
2-condensation reaction
3- anticodon binds to codon
how can a sample of an organelle be isolated (4)
1- homogenise the sample
2-add an isotonic solution - to stop cellular functions
3-centerfigue to collect the nuclei and debris
4- use a ultracentrifuge at different faster speeds until the sample of the organelle is collected
digestion of starch by mammal (4)
1- amylase hydrolyses the starch into maltose
2-breaking the glycosidic bonds
3-maltose enters the small intestine the microvilli
4- where the pancreas secretes the enzyme maltase to hydrolyse the maltose into glucose
explain the roll of micelles in the absorption of fats (5)
1- micelles include bile salts and fatty acids
2-make the fatty acids soluble in water
3-carry the fatty acids into the cell
4-maintain higher concentration of fatty acids to ileum
5-fatty acids is absorbed by diffusion
