25
differences prokaryote eukaryote
pro: naked DNA, in nucleoid, circular no membrane bound structures plasmids present, not mitochondria small ribosomes divide through binary fussion euk: wrapped DNA in nuclear region, linear membrane bound structures no plasmids, mitochondria larger ribosomes divide through mitosis
26
parts of cell membrane
phospholipids carrier protein channel protein peripheral protein cholesterol glycoprotein
27
what does cholesterol do
only in animals -> controls fluidity of membrane, prevents crystalization
28
what do glycoprotein do
act in cell-cell recognition and binding of other molecules
29
integral proteins
permanently attached to phospholipid bilayer. function: movement of molecules and transduction of energy and signals
30
peripheral proteins
temporarily attached to phospholipid 2layer. function: allow cells to coordinate and communicate using networks of proteins
31
functions of proteins in cell membrane
JET RAT Junctions Enzymes Transport Recognition Anchorage Transduction
32
what made davson and danielli realize they were wrong
freeze fracture and radioactive antibodies proved that proteins spanned both layers
33
types of membrane transport
passive: diffusion, osmosis, facilitated diffusion active transport uses ATP, endocytosis and exocytosis
34
endosymbiotic theory
eukaryotic cells evovled from prokaryotic cells through a symbiotic process explains evolution of mitochondria and chloroplasts
35
what did pasteur prove wrong
the theory of spontaneous generation
36
part of interphase
G1, S phase and G2
37
what happens in G1
growth and metabolism - increase cytoplasm volume - organelles produced - protein synthesized
38
what happens in s phase
replication of dna
39
what happens in G2
growth and metabolism - same as G1
40
what does mitosis result in
2 identical diploid nuclei
41
what is mitosis needed for
tissue repair, organis, growth, asexual reproduction and development of embryos
42
parts of mitosis
PROPHASE METAPHASE ANAPHASE TELOPHASE
43
prophase
DNA supercoils and condenses nuclear membrane dissolves centrosomes move to poles & start making spindles
44
metaphase
spindle fibres attach to chromosomes and move them outwards to form one line among the middle of the cell
45
anaphase
spindle fibres contract and separate the sister chromatids
46
telophase
chromosomes decondense and nuclear membrane form around the two identical chromosome sets
47
cytokinesis
divide cells into 2 identical daughter cells. different in animals and plants
48
cytokinesis in animals
contractile proteins form microfilaments that contract the plasma membrane towards teh center of the cell, creating a furrow that eventually breaks
49
cytokinesis in plants
carbohydrate-rich vesicles form in a row at the centre of the cell, they fuse together and form a rudimentary cell wall that later expands and separates the cells
50
miotic index
number of cells in mitosis/total # of cells
51
what are cyclins
proteins that control progression of cell cycle
52
what do cyclins do
bind to cyclin dependent kinases (CDK), become active and attach to phophate group which triggers other cells to become active and carry tasks. then cyclin degrades and stops
53
what does cyclin d do
assemble protein for DNA replication
54
what does cyclin e do
activate dna replication
55
what does cyclin a do
promote progression throughout cycle
56
what does cyclin b do
initiate mitosis
57
what are mutagens
agents that cause change in genetic material of cells (can be biological, physical or chemical)
58
what are oncogenes
mutated genes
59
what is metassis
when the primary tumor moves around and becomes a dangerous (malignant) tumor
60
what is phosphorus needed for
nucleic acids, phospholipids. component of ATP
61
what is iron needed for
oxygen transport in blood, photosynthesis and enzymes
62
what is sodium needed for
nerve impulses in nervious system, moving the flagellum
63
alpha glucose is..
less stable, higher energy, low melting point
64
beta glucose is...
more stable, less energy, higher melting point
65
carbs are made up of
carbon, hydrogen and oxygen (1:2:1)
66
when, by whom and how was urea inorganically made
1828 by Franklin Woehler through heating an inorganic salt
67
starch and glycogen are..
polymers of alpha glucose
68
what are the two forms for starch
amylopectin and amylose
69
glycogen's function
found in animals in the liver as glucose storage
70
cellulose is..
a polymer of beta glucose
71
carbohydrates are the ---- while lipids are the ---- | In terms of energy production when broken down
wallet, bank
72
properties of fibrous proteins
long/narrow structural (give strength/support) insoluble in water repetitive amino acid sequence stable ex. collagen, keratin
73
properties of globular proteins
rounded/spherical functional (calaysis, transport) soluble in water irregular amino acid sequence sensitive to changes in pH, heat ex. insulin, haemoglobin
74
what is ATP split into to release energy
ADP + phosphate
75
human equation anaerobic respiration
glucose -> lactic acid -> lactase
76
plant equation anaerobic respiration
glucose -> ethanol -> CO2
77
pros of anerobic respiration
can be broken down quickly and without oxygen
78
cons of anaerobic respiration
low atp yield, produces toxic byproducts
79
anaerobic respiration in bread
after kneading, dough is kept warm to encourage yeast respiration. eventually oxgen runs out and anerobic resp starts. CO2 creates gas bubbles, ethanol is created but evaporates.
80
ATP full name
adenosine triphosphate
81
what does 'oxygen debt' mean in relation to anaerobic respiration
the amount of oxygen that you have to breathe back in to break down the lactase created in anaerobic respiration
82
what are the 4 nitrous bases in DNA
adenine guanine thymine cytosine
83
what are nucleic acids
biomolecules responsible for DNA information storage
84
what are adenine and guanine

85
what are thymine and cytosine
pyrimidins
86

what is rRNA
ribosomal RNA structural component of ribosomes found in cytoplasm
88

what is mRNA
messanger RNA carries DNA sequence information to ribosomes found in nucleus and ribosomes
90
what are histones
