Week 3 Flashcards
Synthesis
NADH -> 2.5ATP, FADH2 -> 1.5ATP
Glycolysis
2ATP + 2NADH -> 5 ATP
Citric acid cycle
2 ATP + 8, 28 ATP after oxidative phosphorylation, total of around 36-38 ATP
Electromagnetic waves
Waves in electromagnetic field, electromagnetic radiation, occurs in packets called photons
Wavelength or frequency is correlated with
The energy of the photon
Velocity/Frequency =
Wavelength
Pigment
A molecule that absorbs visible light, each pigment absorbs only light of certain wavelengths, when a pigment absorbs light, it absorbs energy from the photons
Photosynthesis
The use of the light energy to synthesize carbohydrates out of CO2 and H20
Photosystem 1
Cluster of pigment with reactive center, middle there is a reactive center called chlorphyll A, absorbs light that is transformed to reactive electrons
Reproduction
An amoeba, a single called eukaryote is dividing into 2 cells each new cell will be an individual organism
Interphase
G1: cell growth
S period: synthesis of DNA, dna replication
G2: cell growth, preparation for mitosis
Mitotic phase: mitosis
Division of the nucleus
Mitotic phase: cytokinesis
Division of the cytoplasm
Mitosis
1) prophase
2) prometaphase
3) metaphase
4) anaphase
5) telophase
Prophase
Nucleolus disperses, chromatids form from DNA strands, spindles begins to form around centrosomes
