Q

Cell Respiration Equation

A

C6H12O6 + 6O2 = 6H2O + 6CO2

18
Q

Skeletal Muscles

A

Voluntary and striated

19
Q

Cardiac

A

Involuntary and striated

20
Q

Involuntary

A

Smooth and non striated

21
Q

Osmosis

A

Diffusion of water across a differentially permeable membrane from a region of higher water concentration to a region of lower water concentration

22
Q

Homeostasis

A

Maintenance of a relatively constant internal environment despite fluctuations in the external environment

23
Q

Diffusion

A

Spreading out of particles so that they are evenly distributed

24
Q

Concentration Gradient

A

The different in concentration that brings about diffusion

25
Q

Enzymes

A

Proteins that catalyse specific chemical reactions without themselves being altered

26
Q

Activation Energy

A

energy needed to start a chemical reaction, enzymes function by lowering activation energy

27
Q

Co-Factors

A

Alter the shape of active site so enzymes can combine with other substrates

28
Q

Lock and Key Model

A
  • substrate attaches to the active site of enzymes

- chemical bonds weaken resulting in two or more new products

29
Q

Catabolism

A
  • Where complex substances are broken down into simpler ones
  • releases energy
  • eg cellular respiration
30
Q

Anabolism

A
  • Construct complex substances from simpler ones
  • uses energy
  • protein synthesis
31
Q

Functions of membranes

A
  • Regulate molecules that can enter and leave the cell
  • active environment for chemical reactions
  • receive messages on receptors
  • cellular communication
32
Q

Phospholipid

A

Membrane is made up of phospholipids and they create and phospholipid bilayer

33
Q

Active Transport

A

The use of energy to move substances across a cell membrane

34
Q

Fluid Mosaic Model

A

Model of cell membrane structure, proteins and phospholipid can move freely within the layer.

35
Q

Protein Channels

A
  • Proteins act as doors in the membrane

- channels to move specific molecules through cell membrane

36
Q

Glycolysis

A 
Breaks down one molecule of glucose to produce two molecules of pyruvate
Yields 2 molecules of atp
Takes place in cytoplasm 
Requires no oxygen 
Anaerobic process
37
Q

Passive Transport

A

a movement of ions and other atomic or molecular substances across cell membranes without need of energy input.

38
Q

Organic Compounds

A

Amino acids
Lipids
Carbohydrates
Oxygen

39
Q

Semi Permeable Membrane

A

Cell membrane controls what goes in and out

40
Q

Functions of cell membrane

A

Physical barrier
Regulation of the passage of materials
Sensitivity
Support
