3rd EXAM Flashcards
(34 cards)
What happens when there is a high concentration of something on one side of a semipermeable membrane?
Diffusion
Electron chain to produce ATP
Oxidative Phosphorylation
Since H+ concentration is higher on one side of the membrane we call this
Chemical Gradient
are those that live in environments that have no O2
Anaerobic prokaryotic organisms
they are actually killed in the presence of O2
strict/obligate anaerobes
They survive without oxygen, but they can use it if available.
part time/facultative anaerobes
It basically takes the products of glycolysis and utilizes them to produce a little ATP (and NAD—which is needed for glycolysis to proceed)
other energy-producing pathways for anaerobic organisms/conditions.
Fermentation
Photosynthesis:
CO2+ H2O + solar energy ——> carbohydrate + O2 (glucose)
The process involves the absorption of light, splitting of water molecules to release oxygen, and the synthesis of carbohydrates in the form of glucose.
carbohydrate + O2
——-> CO2 + H2O + ATP
(glucose)
reverse process of photosynthesis, converting the energy stored in glucose into ATP for the cell’s energy needs.
Plants, algae (Eukaryotes), cyanobacteria (colorful bacteria from the domain Bacteria)
What do they have in common? They make light energy absorbing pigments
The pigments allow the conversion of solar energy into chemical energy (carbohydrates).
chlorophyll or carotenoids
where solar energy is collected and used to make a little ATP.
cannot occur in the dark
light requiring reactions
where solar energy is collected and used to make a little ATP.
can occur in the dark
Calvin cycle
is the major building block of glucose and other sugars with glucose components (as well as glycerol, fatty acids, and amino acids).
G3P (glyceraldehyde 3 phosphate)
CO2 + H2O + ATP Glucose + O2
(What does this reaction resemble?)
cellular respiration
The ATP used to “start” photosynthesis is generated via solar energy—
photophosphorylation
is how cell reproduce and multicellular organisms grow and develop!
Mitosis
Prokaryotes reproduce in a similar fashion called
binary fission
We have___pairs of chromosomes
23
Each of the different types of chromosome has a unique set of genes—But each specific pair has the same set of genes in the same location
locus
The pairs are called
homologus pairs
DNA and histone proteins are known generally as _____
The fully condensed structure is called a _____
chromatin
chromosome
Events of interphase
Growth
Biosynthesis
The S in S-phase stands for
synthesis of DNA
Sorted, duplicated chromosomes-
Karyotype
