Describe male repro:

Describe female repro:
Estrogen produced by secondary oocyte & corpus leutum.
Thickening of endometrium & secondary char.
List the steps of the M. Cycle:
- Hypothalamus stimulates AP to release LH & FSH.
- FSH allows primary oocyte to change to secondary follicle.
- Follicle released estrogen, which begins to thicken the endometrium.
- POSITIVE FEEDBACK causes more LH/ FSH to be released.
- LH Surge occurs allowing the oocyte to break from the follicle, ovulation. Oocyte leaves via tubes while corpus stays behind.
- Corpus L stimulates progesterone and estrogen even more to thicken the endometrium.
- If no fertilization occurs, then LH/FSH is negatively feedback causing it to slow down. This in turn causes the deformation of the Corpus L.
- Endometrium is released after thickness decreases.

- Citrate from the mitochondria goes to the cytoplasm where it is broken down into OOA and Acetyl Coa.
- Acetly Coa, ATP, and NADPH is linked together to form long FFA.
What is pyruvate dehydrogenase?
Functions to convert pyruvate to Acetyl Coa + Co2 to send it to the kerb’s cycle. THIS HAS A VERY NEGATIVE DELTA G, THEREFORE IT IS NOT REVERSIBLE.
What is another way to view a dehydrogenase?
Dehydrogenases remove hydrogens, therefore it is an oxidation step. Pyruvate is oxidized to Acetyl Coa via Pyruvate DEHYDROGENASE.

Describe the timeline of oogenesis:
Oogonium mitotically divides with a primary oocyte(2n) before birth. These primary oocytes are stuck in Prophase I until puberty.
Hormonal changes cause the primary oocyte to undergo meiosis 1 to form secondary oocytes(n) and a polar body & is released during ovulation and travels down the Fallopian tube.
The secondary oocyte only undergoes Meiosis II upon being fertilized by sperm.

Why do babies have fetalHb instead of normalHb?
They require oxygen for circulation and must have a stronger affinity to the oxygen than normalHb. Fetal Hemoglobin has a higher affinity to oxygen than normal hemoglobin.
Where is hemoglobin produced?
Bone marrow by RBC
If myoglobin binds oxygen better than hemoglobin, then why do our RBC contain myoglobin instead?
Myoglobin has a higher affinity to oxygen then hemoglobin does. This allows for better binding, HOWEVER this means that myoglobin will also hold onto the oxygen instead of releasing it to the tissues.
What is Homotropic regulation?
A form of allosteric regulation which allows the molecule to act as the effector, as compared to heterotropic which allows another molecule to act as the effector.
Allosterics allows for the sigmodial shape of the graph.

Describe indicators:
Indicators function in acid-base titrations to identify, via color change or a similar mechanism, that an expected pH, and thus the titration endpoint, has been reached. In order to function in this way, an indicator must undergo a color change near the desired pH. This typically occurs because of a reversible change in the protonation state of the indicator. It is desirable then that the pKa of a chosen indicator be within ± 1 unit of the target pH

What is kinship affinity?
related by choice not blood, so marriage.
describe the harlow monkey experiments:
In Harlow’s experiment, the infant monkeys preferred spending their time clinging to the cloth mother. Even when only the wire mother could provide food, the monkeys visited her just to eat. Harlow concluded that there was much more to the mother/infant relationship than milk and that this “contact comfort” was crucial to the psychological development and health of infants. After monkeys were paired with a Wire Mother, they showed abnormal behavior, which could not be corrected later in life by pairing them with a Cloth Mother.
What is Anomie ?
refers to society feeling fragmented and lacking cohesiveness

SDS Page Reducing Conditions:
The reducing conditions of the SDS page cause for the breakdown of several disulfide bonds, therefore there will be more subunits present in a reduced SDS page.
Which bonds are needed for tertiary structure?
Covalent DiSulfide Hydrogen Electrostatic Van der Vaals Hydrophobic
Which competitor doesn’t change the Km/Vmax?
Uncompetitive because it changes both Km/Vmax proportionally.
Describe Competitive Inhibition:
An inhibitor molecule will resemble the substrate molecule. The inhibitor will compete with the substrate for a spot in the active site on the molecule. The Km of the substrate will decrease, but the vmax stays the same. The competition can be overcome if you saturate the solution with more substrate.
Describe Uncompetitive Inhibition:
The binding of the substrate- enzyme complex creates an allosteric site which allows the inhibitor to bind. The binding of the inhibitor decreases both Km and Vmax. Can not be overcome by increasing substrate complex.
Describe Noncompetitive Inhibition:
The binding of the inhibitor to an allosteric site prevents the binding of the substrate to the enzyme. This lowers the Vmax, but maintains the same Km value.
