Bio test #2 part 2

QuestionAnswer
Carrier-mediated transport is also called facilitated diffusion.
Oxidation and reduction reactions are chemical processes that result in a gain or loss in electrons.
After getting off the ski lift, you choose a trail that requires you to ski up a small incline before beginning the downward section of the trail. In this scenario, the hill is analogous to activation energy.
The actual transport of protons by the proton pump is mediated by a transmembrane protein which undergoes a change in its conformation.
Enzymes are very specific in their choices of substrates because each different enzyme has an active site that is shaped to fit a certain substrate molecule.
The following are all functions of a typical plasma membrane except permanence in composition.
The plasma membrane is a thin sheet of lipid embedded with proteins.
One of the most important coenzymes that accepts electrons/hydrogens is NAD+
If two solutions have unequal concentrations of a solute, the solution with the lower concentration is called hypotonic.
In an enzyme catalyzed reaction the reactant is called the substrate.
The First Law of Thermodynamics simply states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, just changed from one form to another.
While standing at the top of the stairs, you have a potential energy of 40 Joules. If you walk all the way down the stairs, what would your potential energy be at the bottom of the stairs? 0 Joules
If a cell has the same concentration of dissolved molecules as of its outside environment, the cell's condition is called as being isotonic.
Molecules that act as a catalysts in biological systems are enzymes.
RNA molecules that have been recently reported to act also as enzymes are given the name ribozymes.
The organic non-protein components that aid in enzyme functioning are called coenzymes.
One day during the summer you and some friends made ice cream using an electric ice cream maker. A few days later you noticed a yellow circle of dead grass where the ice cream freezer had been placed. What happened? The ice and salt mixture was HYPEROSMOTIC to the grass cells and caused the yellow circle of dead grass.
The plasma membrane is a thin sheet of lipid embedded with proteins.
The accumulation of amino acids and sugars in animal cells occurs through coupled transport.
Incubation of cells at 20 degrees C blocks the release of proteins from the trans-Golgo. Under such conditions, you would expect to see a decrease in exocytosis.
A phospholipid molecule has a polar and a non polar end. Because of this, water molecules form hydrogen bonds with the polar end of the phospholipid molecule.
The accumulation of amino acids and sugars in animal cells occurs through coupled transport.
During neuronal signaling, a change in membrane potential will cause sodium channels to open and let Na+ ions diffuse down their concentration gradient into the cell. Which helps establish the concentration gradient necessary for this process to occur? Na+/K+ pump
Oxidation and reduction reactions are chemical processes that result in a gain or loss in electrons.

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.
