Q

how does temperature infulence reaction rate?

23
adrenal gland
- flight or fight respone - secretes adreneline and cortisol
24
pancreas
- regulates blood sugar levels - secretes insulin and glucagon (insulin takes glucose from blood stream, glucagon puts blood sugar back into blood)
25
ovaries
- controls female charactsics - secretes oestrgoen and progestrone
26
testes
- controls male characrsics - secretes testostrone
27
pineal
- controls sleeping and waking patterns - secretes melatonin
28
what conditions in the body are kept constant
- body temp (37) - amount of water in the body - blood sugar levels
29
what is the stimulus respone model
1. stimulus 2. receptors 3. control centre 4. effector organs 5. respsone
30
what is negative feedback
is a response to a changed enviroment that reverses changes
31
what is a gene
segment of dna that codes for a specific protein
32
what is a chromosome
a molecule/dna strand
33
what is diabtetes
diabtetes is when your body doesnt produce enough inuslin causing for too much blood sugar to be in your body.
34
RNA properties
can leave nucleas, base p[airs = A+U, C+G
34
base pairs of DNA?
adenine + thymine gaunine + cytosine
34
what are the 2 steps of protein synthesis?
1. transcription (DNA-mRNA) 2. translation (mRNA-protein)
35
Why do cells replicate
to grow, repair and replace dead damged or infecrted cells.
35
How do you make a protein
mRNA is copied from the DNA in the nucleus and carries the insutctions for one gene to the cytoplasm where proteins are made at the ribosome
36
what are the main steps of the cell cycle?
1. interphase 2. mitosis 3. cytokeniss
37
what happens in G1
growth period before dna syntheis, makes proteins
37
what happens in interphase?
1. G1 2. DNA synthesis 3. G2
38
why is DNA replicated
to ensure that a cell hsa 2 copies of dna before it divides
38
what is step 1 of dna syntheies?
UNZIPPING OF PARENT DNA - enzyme helicase breaks hydrogen bonds between bases - both strands are now template strands
39
what happens in DNA syntheis?
DNA is replicated.
40
what is step 2 of dna syntheis?
FORMATION OF NEW DAUGHTER DNA - new base paires pair with each strand of parent DNA - enzyme polymerase joins adjacent nucleotides to from sugar phosphate backbones
41
what is dna replication
semi-conservative
42
what happens in G2
period after DNA syntheis but before mitois, still growing
43
how does cytokenins occour in plant cells
cell plate
43
what is a checkpoint
checkpoints will prevent cell division if - cell is short of nutrients - DNA has not been replicated - DNA is damages?
43
how does cytokenins occour in animal cellsz?
cleavage furrow
44
where are the checkpoints
just after G1 before S, just after G2, before mitosis, mitosis checkpoint
45
what can happen if a mutation occours
mutations in genes can result in an out of control cell cycle due to a lack of checkpoints that could result in cancer
46
what happens in the first stage of mitosis
Prophase - chromsomes coil, become more visible, nuclear membrane starts to dissapear
46
what happens in the third stage of mitosis
Anaphase - sister chromotids are pulled to opposing poles of the cell by spindle fribes
47
what happens in the second stage of mitosis
Metaphase - nuclear membrane is completly gone, chromorids are pulled by spindle fibres to the equator of a cell
48
what happens in the fourth stage of mitosis
Telophase - sepeartion of chromosomes is complete, nuclear membrane reforms, chromsomes unciol
48
what is cytokesins
division of cell after mitosis
49
what are somatic cells
cells that are diploid meaning they carry 2 sets of chromosome from each parents
50
what is energy measured in
joules
50
what are the 9 energy forms
1. heat 2. light 3. sound 4. nuclear energy 5. kinetic 6. gravitational potential 7. elstatic potential 8. chemical potential 9. electrical
51
what are the main types of energy
kinetic ( energy due to motion ) potential ( stored energy in an object )
51
what energy forms are potential
chemical energy, nuclear energy, gravitiational potiential, elastic potenital
52
what is work
the amount of energy it takes to perform a task
52
what energy forms are kinetic
electrical, light, sound, heat
52
what is the conservation of energy rule?
energy cannot be created or detoryed. whenever energy is converteted from one form to antoher, the total energy remains constant.
53
what is the transformation of energy
energy changes from one form to another
54
what is a transfer of energy
energy is passed along
55
what is thermodynamics
is the study of how heat (thermal energy) can be tranformed or tranfered between opbjects
56
what does thermal energy cause for
particles to vibrate
57
what is a thermodyncamic system
thermodynamic enegery is the total energy of all moving or vibrating particles in an object
57
how is thermal energy tranfered
when a hot object cools, the thermal energy is transfer from the molecules on the hot object to the air paritcles
57
what are the 3 thermal energy transfers?
1. conduction 2. convection 3. radiation
58
which way does heat flow
heat flows from where it is hotter to where it is cooler
59
define conduction
occours when two objects at different temperatures are in contact with eachother
60
define convection
is the transfer of heat by the movement of a fluid (liquid or gas) between areas at diffferent temp
61
define radiation
heat energy transfered by infared radiation, which is is in the form of waves
62
what types of cells undergo mitosis
all cells except for sex cells
63
what colour does lithium go
red
64
what colour does copper go
green
