Q

Ph+ significance in body

A

-measurement of molarity of H in body
-a change in 1 ph means it is 10x as acidic
high ph-low hydrogen
low ph-high hydrogen

Q

How is ATP gereneted

A

when glucose(large molecule) breakdown
,
the electrons that are given off help bind ADP to P,

making ATP

Q

purpose of enzymes

A

function as biological catalysts

permit reactions to occur rapidly at a normal body temperature

Breaks covalent bonds between monomers in substrate

22
Q

unique characteristics of enzymes

A

enzymes are reusable
work at over 1 million per minute
PH and temperature help change its shape

23
Q

What is cellular respiration

A

energy releasing reactions that breakdown glucose and fatty acids to be energy source in synthesis of ATP

24
Q

what is purpose of cellular respiration

A

breaks down molecules so ATP can be synthesized

25
Cellular respiration complete equation
glucose+ 6O2+ 36ADP+ 36P = 6Co2 +6H20+ 36 ATP
26
How many ATP molecules are formed from one glucose molecule
36
27
4 steps of cellular respiration
glycolysis formation of acetyl co-a citric acid cycle electron transport chain
28
Aerobic reactions+where in cell do occur
occurs in mitochondria -formation of acetylene co a -citric acid cycle -electron transport chain
29
anaerobic reactions+where in cell do occur
glycolysis occurs in cytosol
30
Primary types of molecules that can be broken down to make atp
glucose + lipids
31
general function of dna
has instructions for synthesizing all of the bodies proteins transfers heredity information from cell to cell
32
general function of rna
carries out genetic instruction(from dna) to synthesize proteins assembles amino acid in right order to produce proteins
33
basic chemical structure of dna
backbone of phosphate and sugar(deoxyribose) A-T C-G T-A G-C
34
basic chemical structure of rna
Backbone of phosphate and sugar (ribose) A-U T-A C-G G-C
35
transcripton
DNA makes RNA(mRNA) mRNA Reads Dna, gives to ribosomes(tRNA)
36
translation
RNA links amino acids together to from proteins
37
process of protein synthesis
1-mRNA made from DNA 2-mRNA copies one strand of DNA 3mRNA breaks off, goes to ribosome 4-tRNA reads mRNA, makes amino acids from codons 5tRNA keeps going until stop codon
38
monosaccharides
simple sugars glucose galactose fructose
39
disaccharides
composed of 2 monosaccharides sucrose lactose maltose
40
polysaccharides
long chains of glucose glycogen starch cellulose
41
structure proteins
keratin(hair) collagen(bones skin teeth)
42
communication proteins
hormones neurotransmetteurs
43
membrane transport proteins
channels carrier proteins hemoglobins
44
catalysts proteins
assist in biochemical reactons enzymes
45
recognition and protection proteins
self proteins-differated between self and non self antibodies-kill microorganisms clotting proteins-blood clots
46
call adhesion
protein cells bind together immune cells bind to cancer cells
47
acid
proton donor
48
base
proton acceptor
49
mRNA
Reads DNA brings script to ribosomes
50
tRNA
Reads mRNA build up proteins from mRNA script
