Test 1:P1,P2,P3,P4 Flashcards
What are the types of Biomolecules ?
Lipids, Carbohydrates, Proteins, and Nucleic acid
What are the monomers of each Biomolecules?
Protein-Amino acids
Lipids-Glycerol and fatty acid (not really monomers
Carbohydrates -Monosaccharides
Nucleic acid-Nucleotides
What does each Biomolecules do?
Carbohydrates-They are a fast source of energy and are breads
Proteins-(meats)Help with muscles building, help in the immunes systems and proteins are enzymes, DNA codes for gene-for structures and function of the body
Lipids-They are fats that help insulating, long term energy, made up cell membranes.
Nucleic acid- (RNA and DNA)-genetic info for coding
What is the biomolecules elements
Carbohydrates
Lipids
Proteins
Nucleic
elements in biomolecules
What are the Differences between Eukaryotes and prokaryotes.
Eukaryotes
-Biggers
-Internal membranes
-Organelles
-you
All multicelled organism
-DNA is a line
Prokaryotes
-10 x smaller than eukaryotic cell(Size of prokaryotic cell’s mitochondria)
-no Internal membranes(no membrane around it DNA)
-no Organelles(no membrane bound organelles
-bacteria
-DNA is a circle
-Because not internal membrane its DNA is wrapped on top of each other
What is the building block of lipids?
Glycerol and Fatty Acids
Theory
Theory- an idea that explains all the
data –from all experiments (ever)(Explain what happened and why)
-stronger than a law(Just explain what happen not why)
-not the same as a guess
not a hypothesis
-only described after years of work- typically
thousands of experiments
-as good as it gets in science
Gene
Gene-A section of nucleic acid (usually DNA ) chain that gives instructions to the cell on how to do something
Example-X to Y on DNA or RNA codes to make something would be a gene
Unit of nucleic acid that code for a thing
nucleic acid (usually DNA)-section of chain that gives
instructions to cell for how to
do something
Evolution
Evolution: It is the Change in gene frequencies across
generations
-
Example: 10% of squirrel code for black fur 27 year ago to now 50% of squirrel code for black fur today
Cell Theory
All cells come from other cells
How to Plant cells compare to animal cells and what is in them
Animal Cell are like our cell
Plants cells
-same parts
as animal
cells,
They have what
-cell wall
-vacuole
-chloroplast(found in the central vacuole)
-(Plants have mitochondria)
-Plants have cell walls and cell membranes
-Animals cell just have cell membranes
What parts of molecules is in the muscle cell and what do we learn
-Pink plaid part-proteins
-Black Dot-Nucleus
-White part-lipids
-Dull white dot with (light pink) -Carbohydrates
Learn: Carbohydrate sugars are floating in and out of cell. The other three components are visible
What is a protein made of, what is it bonds
Made up of amino acid
-2 amino acids connected by peptide bond (covalent bond)(C-N)
-c-c=o(always bottom of Monomer)
-Bottom of all amino acid are the same
-20 amino acids in the human body
-top of the amino acid determines it shapes called the R group
what is nucleic acid made of
Monomer-nucleotide
Nucleotide=phosphate+sugar+Base
The sugar part can be DNA or RNA
RNA-Ribose sugar(With oxygen)
DNA-Deoxyribose sugar(without oxygen)
Bond is phosphodiester bond (a type of covalent bond) that connect P+S+B
What is a carbohydrate and bonds
Monomer is monosacharride
2 connected together is a disacharride
Sugar linked together by covalent bonds
Carbohydrates=Carbon+Hydrogen+Oxygen
Sugar- Cx(H2O)y-
Function- used for structure(good for building stuff) and
energy storage-
When you take water from a dries tree carbohydrates are left behind
What are lipids and what are their bonds
Lipids is glycerol and fatty acids
Function-Energy storages and membranes, lipids stored as fats
Lipids-Hydrophilic head (likes water) and hydrophobic tail (repels water)
-chain of C with 2 H but end has O-C-O-H that is hydrophilic(In general they are hydrophobic)
-Apples shiny because lipids on the outside of it
-Can’t make a cell without cholesterol
Structure: OH
/ \
Cwith 2 H O
Why do plants store more energy as carbs than people store lipids
Lipids are efficient in the number of bonds per unit mass meaning they are more energy dense. If we stored as many carbohydrates, we would weigh 8x time more and this wouldn’t be practical because we move to get food to sustain ourselves in through movement.
While it is efficient for a plant because plants don’t move and make carbohydrates directly from Photosynthesis
How did macromolecules which are monomers form
Water+Heat+Bad Weather(lightning)
What was miller primitive earth experiment, what did he found,
how did he find it,
It was an experiment to mimic the atmosphere of earth:
He put :carbon,oxygen,hydrogen,nitogen and phosphorus to water+heat+lighting reaction machine and got amino acid and a fatty acid (Butyric acid) and fatty acid are a part of lipid to contribute to cells
To see what He got:
Separated substances using a thin layer of chromatography
-separated thing by size and how hydrophilic it is
up and down was how big it was
left to right was how easily it dissolves in water
How do you get from macromolecule to a cells(first cell), what is its strcture
First cell was phospholipid put in water=vesicle
First cell Hydrophilic head and hydrophobic tail (outside and inside), lumen of vesicles has water in it
-Has a membrane
-Water loving outside
-water hating inside
-There has compartments with water on the inside and outside of the vesicle
Structure: It is made into a sphere of bilayer of lipids/micelles and the center cavity is the lumen which contains water
-
How would the first cell get information to another generation of cells(inheritance)
Hypothesis-First cell used RNA to pass genetic information and catalyze reaction(ltheir are ribozymes made of RNA that catalyze reactions)
Ribozymes
Ribozymes-They are a chain RNA nucleic aid with part/base pair that stcik to each other that function to manipulate RNA by adding and subtracting RNA nucleotides to create the 3D shape
Unicellular tetrahymena-singled celled Eukaryotic cell
Tetrahymena-RNA added and subtracted to a chain (cut mRNA and tie off chain)
Function Ribozymes Experiment
Goal: Could Ribozymes work to put RNA bases together
Process: Started with (32P)pC5, gave ribozymes alot of C,U,A or G to see if ribozymes add to it or subtracts nucleotides
Confirmed: Ribozymes work on RNA by catalyzes reaction to build RNA Chains
What is directed Evolution of Ribozyme
It is like man made selection to get the best gene like dog breeding
How does Directed Evolution of Ribozyme work
Goal: To see if they could build a population of ribozymes sequences for variety
Experiment: Had ribozymes and changed it base pairs to select the one that works the fastest and only allow the fastest one to replicate to create a population 700x faster than the original
They made 10 trillion versions
Conclusion: Artificial selection- can be much faster than natural selection
Evolving over time as this experiment show is important for the process of a vesicles to be consider the process to make a real cell
What is conservative region
These are region of nucleotides that are the same sequences no matter how much you change it. If you don’t have these sequences then you die/doesn’t work.
The sequences
