Midterm 2 BioScience

Midterm 2 BioScience from quiz 4 and 6

QuestionAnswer
cells with one set of chromosomes are called haploid
The process of forming sex cells is called gametogenesis
This process of reducing the number of chromosomes in half is called Meiosis
The process of combining two haploid cells into one diploid cell is called Fertilization
Fetus is different than an embryo organs and tissues are in place, fetus is bigger than an embryo, fetus is at 8 weeks or two months of genstational age
Production of gametes happens in the gonads
Goads in males testes
Gonads in females ovum
failure of chromosomes to seperate during meiosis is called non-disjunction
Abnormal Meoisis may lead to Monosomy, trisomy, abnormal embryo, spontaneous termination of pregnancy
Monosomy is underproduction of a chromosome, missing
Trisomy is over production of a chromosome, added
Down Syndrome is a case of trisomy at chromosome 21, results from abnormal meiosis
Why is Down's Syndrome more prevelant in woman over 40? It is an issue of immunity, as we age our immune system may not catch the abnormality in the pregnancy
The first 1-22 pairs of chromosomes are Autosomes they are always homlogous
pair 23 is Sex Chromosome it is not always homologous xx or xy
The Y chromosome only codes for tesosterone
Diploid zygote is always female at 10 weeks at which time the Y chromosome may present and the development will be male
Default development of the zygote is always xx female
Zygote Diploid, contains the set of genes from 2 different people
G1 phase of cell cycle Cell differentiates and matures
G2 phase of the cell cycle Cell grows more organelles
M phase of cell cycle Mitosis cell divides into two daughter cells
S Phase Cell synthesizes DNA and replicates its entire library
Interphase cell preforms its regular functions includes G1, S and G2 phases
Phase after M Gophase
Centrioles replicate and create opposite poles Prophase
Centromeres of chromosomes replicate Anaphase
Spindle fibers form Prophase
Chromosomes align on the equatorial plane Metaphase
Nucleous dissapears Prophase
Nuclear membrane re-appears Telophase
Spindle fibers disappear Telophase
Cells with one set of chromosomes are called haploid
cells with two sets of chromosomes are called diploid
2 step process of gametogenesis or production of sex cells diploid cell divides in meiosis into a haploid cell. Differentiation and maturation turn the haploid cell into a mature ovum or sperm (gametes)
process of segregation random separation of the chromosomes from each parent
Normal Meioses I pairs find each other and align on the equatorial plane, how they align is by chance Metaphase I
Abnormal Meiosis when a pair of chromosomes fail to segregate during meiosis I, called non-disjunction
X-linked genes this is chromosome #23. females have two xx males have one x
x-linked genetic disorders females can still be healthy with one mutant x, they may be a carrier for disease but may not express
x-linked mutation in males will always express the mutation as x is autosomal and Y is the determination of the gender ONLY
when fasting the body prefers to use glycogen
it is common to loose how much during the first week of fasting 10 pounds 2 pounds glycogen 8 pounds water
the tissues that must have glucose for fuel even during fasting brain tissue
how does the body produce glucose for the brain during fasting from the breakdown of muscle tissue
ketosis indicates ketones in blood and urine lack of glycogen, breakdown of muscle and fat
hormone produced by the fat cells leptin
what is the function of leptin helps regulate weight and increase metabolic rate
why does metabolic rate decrese during fasting because the body s loosing muscle mass
which organs are stressed on an atkins type diet the liver and kidneys
atkins is safe for how long 3 months
healthy weight loss 1/2 pounds a week
when eating high fat food, the brain produces dopamine
when eating high carb foods the brain produces seratonin
stress, sleep deprivation and caffiene increases this hormone cortisol
high levels of this hormone causes weight gain and diabetes insulin
BMR is affected by age gender heigh weight
bmr is not affected by activity level
BMR is measured fasting, motionless and awake
balanced diet 50% carbs, 20% protein 30% fat
TDEE Total daily energy expenditure
TDEE BMR x activity factor x injury factor
set point theory your body wants to stay at its current weight
what causes a surge in leptin production surplus of carbs
what is the effect of a low fat high carb diet absorption and digestion is very quick
insulin resistance type II diabetes
why we gain weight evolution and positive response
what is the effect of stress shorter life span, storage of fat and change in brain cells
oxytocin hormone produced by brain promoted by stress free activities
what is the number one issue that affects healthy eating setting unrealistic goals
1 calorie unit of energy it takes to heat 1 kg of water by 1 degree celcius
calorie meter measures the heat produced by the body while at rest
metabolic cart medical tool that is used to measure cardiovascular and respiratory function
pounds to kg 1 pound = 2.2 kg
what happens when you have excess glucose and the cells already have enough ATP convert excess into glycogen first then FAT
dietary protein provides amino acids for the production of new protein and provides energy for ATP
asexual reproduction daughter cell generates identical mother cell, involves mitosis
sexual reproduction in complex species, combines genes from two organisms, creates a genetically unique organism
which is the best way to measure someones BMR by calculations
ideal body weight is the healthiest weight based on height and gender
nutritional breakdown for alcohol 7
nutritional breakdown for carbs/sugar 4
nutritional breakdown for protein 4
nutritional breakdown for fat 9
two stages of gameotogenesis 1. diploid to haploid 2. differntiation and maturation
Autosomal are 1-22 sex chromosomes are xx or xy non homologous
x chromosome #23 contains other important genes regardless of gender
