Chapter 6 Lipids Bio

QuestionAnswer
three types of lipids fats, steroids, phospholipids
fats are made up of 3 fatty acids and glycerol
are fats polymers no
what links glycerol and fatty acids in fats ester linkages
steroids are made up of 4 tings, a tail, and an R-group
steroids are aka cholesterol
phospholipids are made up of glycerol, 2 tails, polar head
ring structure fatty acids make in water micelles
saturated fat hydrocarbon chains without double bonds
oil is unsaturated
wax is saturated
unsaturated fat hydrocarbonds with double bonds
how are lipids charazterized insolubility in water
lipids bilayers are highly selective
lipid bilayers with unsaturated hydrocarbon tails make higher permeability and fluidity
as temperature decreases, permiability decreases
how quickly molecules move within and across membranes is due to temperature, structure of hydrocarbon tails, and number of cholesterol molecules in bilayer
protocells vesicle like strucures that harbor nucleic acids
who made up fluid mosaic model singer and nicolson
name for proteins on exterior surface peripheral membrane proteins
two names for proteins on inside of bilayer integral and transmembrane proteins
detergent molecule small amphipathic molecule
ions pass membranes through ion channels
protein that lets particular ion to pass channel protein
channels that let water pass aquaporins
gated channels they open or close due to a signal
passive transport is powered by diffusion and electrochemical gradient
channel proteins and carrier proteins are responsible for facilitated diffusion
carrier protein changes shape during transport
what moves glucose across membrane GLUT-1
active transport moving substances again concentration gradient
ATP gives up what to a what phosphate to a pump
sodium potassium pump is an example of active transport
how many Na leave cell 3
how many K enter cell 2
Na and K represent stored energy

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
