Biology Mid-Year

AB
prokaryotesNo 'true" nucleus and lack organelles
eukaryotesHave a nucleus and membrane bound organells and a nuclear membrane
goli apparatuscell organelle that collects, packages, and distributes molecules produced by the cell
nuclear envelopedouble membrane that surrounds the cell nucleus
mitochondriasupplies the cell with ATP by perfoming oxidative respiration
lysosomedigestive enzymes
cell membranebilipid layer that enclosesthe cytoplasm
rough ERhas many ribosomes and transports substances made by the cell
smooth ERhas few ribosomes and transports substances made by the cell
ribosomesorganelle which produces proteins
carbohydratesstores energy and provides structural support - starch, glycogen, cellulose
lipids (fats)a source of energy storage - saturated and unsaturated, phospholipid bilayer
proteinsplay an important role in structural and metabolic processes - enzymes
nucleic acidscontain heretic/genetic info - DNA, RNA
channelserves as a passage way - foods enter - wastes exit
receptor proteinserve as information receivers which trigger responses in the cell
hormonechemcals secreted by glands that bind to receptors on the surface of cells
neurotransmitterproduced by nerve cells
chemically gatedchannel that opens and closes in response to the binding of a chemical to a receptor
volage-gatedchannels that open due to an electrical signal
diffusionmovement of materials through cells membrane without releasing energy
osmosismovement of water from high concentration to low concentration
hypotoniclower concentration of solute on outside the cell - water enters
hypertoniclower concentration of solute on the inside of the cell - water exits
isotonicequal concentration
active transportmovement of particles throgh the cell membrane against the concentration
sodium-potassium pumpsuse ATP to produce a large concentration of sodium on the outside and potassium on the inside
endocytosisfood particles enter the cell
exocytosiswastes materials exit the cell
energymechanical, sound, thermal, light, electric
kinetic energyenergy an object has because of it's motion
potential energyenergy that is stored in an object because of its position
heterotrophobtains energy from other organisms - animals
autotrophable to obtain energy from sunlight - photosynthesis
photosynthesislight energy is converted into chemical energy
respirationcoverting stored energy into useful energy
oxidationmolecule loses an electron
reductionmolecule gains an electron
chemical reactionoccurs when chemical bonds between atoms are broken or formed resulting in oneor more different substances being formed
activation energyenergy required to initiate a chemical reaction
catalystreduces the amount of activation energy
enzymeused by cells to trigger and control special chemicals
substatemolecule an enzyme binds to
ATPenergy currency
feedback inhibitioncontrols enzyme activities
photontiny packet of radient energy
radient energyenergy such s light that is transmitted in waves that can trael through a vacuum
chloropyllgreen pigment
carbon fixationwhen enzymes use C atoms from carbon dioxide to produce organic molecules
calvin cyclethe biochemical pathway to fix carbon
glycolysisbegins celluar respiration - breaks down the 6C glucose into 3C moledcule (pyruvate)
pyruvate3C molecule
anaerobic respirationoxygen is not present
aerobic respirationoxygen is present
fermentationanaerobic - breaks don pyruvate into alcohol or lactate and has a net gain of 2ATP/glucose
