Biochemistry, Cells, and Mitosis

AB
polar covalent bonda bond between atoms with a partial charge
watera polar compound
cohesionmolecules that stick to others like them
adhesionmolecules that stick to other types of molecules
1-7acidic pH
7-14basic pH
more hydronium ionsan acid
more hydroxide ionsa base
ionic bondsbond between two charged atoms (ions)
carbohydratesC plus H2O
monosaccharideglucose
polysaccharide in pastastarch
polysaccharide in plant cell wallscellulose
lipidscontain C and H only
type of lipid made of glycerol and 3 fatty acidstriglyceride
type of lipid made of a glycerol with a phosphate and 2 fatty acidsphopholipid
lipid bilayer (membrane)made of phospholipids
proteinschains of amino acids
amino acidscontain NH2 an COOH
enzymestype of protein which decreases the activation energy
nucleotidesmade of a sugar, nitrogenous base and phosphate group
nucleic acidsmade of chains of nucleotides
RNAhas a ribose sugar
DNAhas a deoxyribose sugar
ATPtransfers energy
Carbohydrate functionstores energy
Lipid functionkeeps water in or out
steroidslipid hormones
protein typeenzyme
water helps maintain homeostasisbecause it is slow to lose or gain heat
mitochondriapower (energy) station
nucleusstores DNA
nucleolusmakes ribosomes
ribosomessynthesize proteins
rough endoplasmic reticulumpackages proteins
smooth endoplasmic reticulummakes lipids
Golgi ApparatusShips out packaged proteins
lysosomesdigest used proteins
chloroplastsite of photosynthesis
cell wallsupports a plant--made of cellulose
central vacuolefills with water
cell wall, central vacuole, chloroplastonly found in plant cells
eukaryotecells with nuclei and other organelles
prokaryotecells without membrane bound organelles or a nucleus
prokaryote dnasingle loop
eukaryote dnafound twisted into chromosomes
bacteriaonly can be prokaryotes
amoebasingle celled eukaryote
flagellumtail on a cell
ciliahairs on a cell
diffusionmovement of solutes down a concentration gradient
concentration gradientchange in concentration over a distance
active transportuses a pump and ATP
passive transportdiffusion; without the need for ATP
carrier proteinfacilitated diffusion
channel proteinpermits a polar substance to pass through the membrane
carbohydrates on proteinscellular recognition proteins
na+ k+ pump3 Na pumped in and 2 K out
against a concentration gradientactuve transport
hypertonichigh salt
hypotoniclow salt or distilled water
isotonicsame concentration in or out
equilibriumstuff comes in at same rate as it goes out; no net change
receptorcoupled to a G protein
adenylyl cyclasemakes ATP become cAMP
cAMPsecond messenger
epinephrinesignal molecule
turns channels on or off, makes DNA start protein synthesisjobs of cAMP
signal transductionsend the message from the signal outside to the inside of the cell
cell membranelipid bilayer
prophasechromosomes are visible, nucleus is not
metaphasechromosomes move to the middle
anaphasechromatids separate/move to sides
telophasetwo new nuclei
cytokinesiscell division
G1 (Gap1)cell growth and rest
G2 (Gap2)second cell growth/rest phase
S phaseDNA is duplicated
InterphaseG1,S, G2
CheckpointsCell stops to see if all is ready for next phase
G1/S checkpointIs cell ready for DNA synthesis?
G2/M CheckpointDid DNA copy correctly?
M checkpointIs cell ready to complete Mitosis and divide?
CentromereThe tie around the middle of 2 chromatids
CentrosomeHolds the Centrioles
CentriolesMakes the Spindle fibers
Spindle FibersGuides the chromatids to the poles.
Cell plateOnly in plant cells that are dividing
HistoneProtein in the Chromatin--holds DNA coils
ChromatinDNA and Histones.
skepticismthe questioning way a scientist looks at data.
observationusing your senses to make inferences
hypothesisa testable idea
experimenta test carried out under controlled conditions to test a hypothesis
control groupserves as a standard for comparison
theoryan explanation for many experimental results
homeostasismaintaining ones inside environment differently from the external environment
metabolismthe sum of all chemical reactions in the body
cohesiona molecule's ability to stick to itself
adhesiona molecule's ability to stick to other substances
carbohydratesugars, starches, etc
lipidfatty acids, fats, waxes, phospholipids, cholesterol;
proteinchain of amino acids
nucleotidebuilding block of nucleic acids.
activation energylowered by an enzyme
substrateacted on by an enzyme.
