Bio 101 final exam

Bio 101 final

QuestionAnswer
Elements of biology Carbon (backbone), Oxygen, Hydrogen, Nitrogen
3 main ypes of chemical bonds Ionic (opposites attract), Covalent (share electrons), Hydrogen (weak but important)
Water's 4 special properties cohesion, large heat capacity, low density as a solid, good solvent
4 main classes of bilogical molecules Carbohydrates (sugars), lipids (fats), Nucleic acids, proteins
carbohydrates used to store and release energy, break down into sugars (monosaccharides- glucose, disaccharides, polysaccharides)
What happens to your glucose energy needed breaks molecular bonds down and new, lower energy bonds form. energy not needed is stored energy (short term: glycogen, long term: converted to fat)
Polysaccharides cellulose: plant structure Starch: energy storage in animals: glycogen
lipids are hydrophobic, chains/rings of hydrocarbon
types of lipids saturated, unsaturated, trans fatty acid: hydrogeneration
triglycerides 3 fatty acid chains and glycerol, storage reserves
phospholipids 2 fatty acid chains, glycerol, phosphate group
Nucleic acids info storage, energy carriers: ATP
3 parts of nucleic acids sugar,phosphate, nitrogen base
Proteins long chains of 20 amino acids. functions: structure, enzymes, body functions
protein structure primary (beads), secondary (twist), tetiary, quaternary
energy flow sun- photosynthesis- cellular resp- energy
ATP (adenosine triphosphate) input of energy from break down of food attaches ADP and phosphate
ADP (adenosine diphosphate) energy released as a phosphate group ejected from ATP
cellular respiration process by which all living organisms break down sugar mainly in form of glucose to make ATP. takes place in cytoplasm (glycolysis) & mitochondria (rest of process) O2 + sugar = CO2 + water + ATP
cell resp. step 1 (glycolysis) -new molecule is formed Acetyl-coA molecule entrers cycle and binds to oxalaocetate (creating a 6 carbon molecule)
cell resp. step 2 (prep for kreb cycle) -high energy electron carriers (NADH) are made and CO2 is exhaled - 6 carbon molecules donate electrons creating NADH (2 CO2 molecules are released into atmosphere)
cell resp. step 3 (kreb cycle) -oxacoacetate is reformes, ATP is generated, and more high energy electron carriers are formed -produce NADH and FADH2 -2 turns of cycle are necessary to compute
cell resp. step 4 (Electron transport chain) -electron from FADH2 or NADH jump from inner mitochondrial membrane to tube until it finds O2 -with addition of hydrogen ions -when enough H+ are on one side of inner mitochondrial membrane, they rush to other side of membrane, releasing energy = about
Photosynthesis process by which some organisms capture energy from the sun to create sugar water + CO2 = O2 + sugar
thylakoid location of photo reactions, where light energy is converted into chemical energy
stroma location of synthesis reactions, where chemical energy from the photo reactions is used to synthesize sugars
chloroplast organelle in plant cells in which photosynthesis occurs. converts light energy into chemical energy
photosynthesis step 1 sunlight excites electrons which move around the thylakoids until they bounce to chlorophyll A. Chlorophyll A sends electrons to first electron transport chain, O2 is released
photosynthesis step 2 high energy electrons used to pump H+ into thylakoid. kinetic energy release H+ to make up ATP
photosynthesis step 3 photosystem 2 (more excited electrons) sent to another electron transport chain
photosynthesis step 4 electron transport chain #2 (highly excited electrons) passed to NAD+ creating NADPH (energy carrier)
calvin cycle use ATP & NADPH, plus enzyme rubisco (CO2 sticky tape) and other chemicals floating around in calvin cycle to make sugar
C4 photosynthesis -water loss minimized in warm climates -requires more energy
CAM photosynthesis -water loss minimized in hot climates -requires more energy -slow growth
mitochondria organelle is eukaryotic cells that converts the energy stored in food in the chemical bonds of carbohydrate, fat, and protein molecules into a form usable by the cell for functions and activities
2 parts of digestive system alimentary and accessory
Alimentary canal moth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine/ colon
Accessory structures salvary glands, liver, gallbladder, pancreas
components of circulation central pump, vascular system, circulating fluid
right heart right atria, right ventricle, pulmonary cicuit
left heart left atria, right ventricle, systemic circuit
vascular system (high pressure) arteries, arterioles, capillaries, venules, veins (low pressure)
4 components of blood -plasma (55%), RBC, WBC, platelets -avg adult has 4-5 quarts
respiratory system structures upper: nose, mouth, pharynx, larynx lower: trachea, bronchi, lungs
respiratory and circulatory systems circ system brings O2, nutrients, hormones throughout and removes wastes like CO2 from the body
nervous system receive stimuli, process info, initiate response

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.
