Stuff To Not Fuck Up On Again From Practice Test 1
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Chirals Centers Are: | sp3 hybridized and attached to 4 different compounds |
| Valine Has A Nitrogen And Two O2 atoms that are capable of: | H-bonding |
| Valine Forms A Dipolar Ion Under Appropriate Conditions And Is Capable Of: | Dipole-dipole bonding |
| Gabriel Synthesis Substitutes An Amino Group For: | A halogen on alkyl halides |
| Bomb Calorimetry Is An Inefficient Way To Determine: | Bond energy |
| The Required Information Required For Bomb Calorimetry Includes: | Mass of reactants, heat of formation of reactants, temp of products, temp of reactants, mass of calorimeter, specific heat of calorimeter, mass of water in colorimeter, and specific heat of water |
| In Order To Change Buoyance, You Would Have To Change The Mass In Order To Change: | Specific gravity |
| A Decrease In CO2 Production Results In: | More carbonic acid produced, which lowers pH |
| When An Organism Has Reduced O2 Access, Anaerobic Metabolism Dominates Which Produces: | Lactic acid |
| Decrease In Leptin In An Organism Causes A: | Decrease in food intake |
| Leptin Decreases: | Plasma cortisol |
| Symptoms Of PTH: | Bone density, calcitonin, PTH breakdown products |
| Hepatic Portal Vein Brings Blood From The Intestinal Tract To: | The liver |
| Amount Of ATP Produced During Glycolysis Per Molecule Of ATP During Fermentation = | 2 ATP |
| Endosymbiotic Theory: | Explains the derivation of mitochondria in eukaryotic cells but does not explain the inheritance of mutation |
| During Cell Division At The 1-Cell Stage, The 1-Cell Zygote Becomes: | An embryo and divides into 2 cells |
| Either One Of These Cells Can Become An Organism Because: | Cleavage at this point is interdeterminate |
| Support For Endosymbiosis Includes The Three Facts That: | Mitochondrial DNA is circular and not enclosed by a membrane. Many present bacteria live in eukaryotic cells and digest nutrients that their hosts cannot while sharing the energy they derive. Mito. DNA codes for its own ribosomal RNA. |
| High Temps Cause Enzyme Molecules To: | Denature and causes a plateau and sharp decrease in reaction velocity. |
| An Increase In Entropy Results In: | A decrease in Gibbs value |
| When Denaturation Of An Enzyme Is Complete, Enzyme Activity Is: | Zero |
| Recombination Frequency Is Used To: | Determine genetic distance but not physical distance |
| Neural Crest Is Derived From: | Ectoderm cells that include adrenal medulla, schwann cells, and melanocytes |
| Regulator Gene For Gene Transcription Codes For: (Steps For What Happens Without Allolactose) | For repressor molecule. |
| Operator Gene Is The Binding Site For: (Steps For What Happens Without Allolactose) | Repressor molecule |
| When The Repressor Is Bound, RNA Polymerase Cannot Transcribe Past The: (Steps For What Happens Without Allolactose) | Operator and the structural gene cannot be transcribed which codes for the desired protein |
| When The Inducer Is Present, The Repressor And Inducer: (Steps For What Happens Without Allolactose) | Bind to each other, which allows the operator to be free and the RNA polymerase can transcribe the structural gene |
| When No Inducer Is Present, The Repressor:(Steps For What Happens Without Allolactose)(Steps For What Happens Without Allolactose) | Binds to the operator and prevents RNA Polymerase from transcribing the eukaryotic gene |
| Microtubules Attach To Chromosomes At: | Centromeres |
| Which Process Directly Produces GTP?: | The Citric Acid Cycle |
| Basic AA's Charged At pH 7.4: | Arginine and Lysine |
| Acidic Amino Acids Include: | Aspartic Acid and Glutamic Acid |
| What Phase Of Mitosis Do Tubulin Polymers ShorteN?: | Anaphase |
| The Fluid In the Bowman's Capsule Is Isotonic To: | Plasma |
| Glucose Has A Higher Conc. In Dialyzing Fluid Than In: | Plsama |
| RNA's Are The Site Of: | Translation |
| Translation Involves mRNA Transcript Binding To A: | Small ribosomal unit |
| Almost Every Base In Mitochondrial DNA Codes For: | A product |
| Nuclear DNA Contains: | Introns (non-coding regions) and exons (coding regions) |
| Group I & II Introns Are Unique Because They Are: | Self-splicing and dot not involve protein enzymes in their splicing reactions |
| Endoderm Is Responsible For: | Differential development of the epithelial linings of the idgestive and respiratory tracts, parts of the liver, pancrease, thyroid, and bladder |
| The Schachter-Singer Theory Says That Cognitive Interpretation Of The Arousal Is Necessary To: | Experience emotion |
| Acetylcholine (ACH) Is Released By All: | Preganglionic neurons of the autonomic nervous system, by all postganglionic neurons of the parasympathetic nervous system, and by those postganglionic neurons of the sympathetic nervous system that innvervate sweat glands. |
| Two-Factory Theory Of Emotion Says That In Addition To Physiological Arousal, Cognitive Interpretation Of The Arousal In the Context Of the Situation Is Required In Order To: | Experience emotion |
| A Person With An External Locus Of Control Is Most Likely To Attribute Outcomes To: | Environmental rather than personal issues |
| Motor Reflexes Are caused By Interactions Between: | The peripheral nervous system and the spinal cord |
| Maslow's Hierarchy Of Needs Dictates That Higher Needs Do Not Produce: | Drives until lower needs are met |
| A CBT Therapist Would See The Causes Of Disorder As: | Stemming from the interactions between thoughts and behaviors |
| Independent Variables Involve: | Input |
| Group Polarization Involves The Tendency Of A Group As A Whole To: | Take a more extreme position than the individual points of views of members of the group |
| Self-Fulfilling Prophecy Involves A Person making A Judgement Without: | A reason and because of prior expectation |
| Self-Selection Bias Involves Groups That: | Could be in dispute |
| Social Constructivism Is When A Therapist Works To Change Behavior By: | Altering something that was constructed as an absolute in order to correct the problem |
| Ethnic Groups Emigrating To A More Industrialized Culture Typically Have: | Larger families, but shorter lifespans initially |
| Shift In Signal Detection Is When People Who Are Reacting To A Stimulus Do Not: | View it as alarming |
| Behaviorist Theory Includes The Idea That Behavior Is Based Upon: | Reinforcement and punishment |
| Dissociative Disorder Is A Disorder In Which Those Affected Go Into A State That: | Removes unpleasant memories |
| Observational Learning Refers To: | Modeling behaviors by watching others |
| Fundamental Attribution Error Occurs When A Person Overestimates: | The effect of a person's personality and underestimates the effect of the situation itself |
| Sensory Receptor Is An Afferent Nerve Ending That can: | Pick up a sensory stimulus in the environment |
| Glutamate Receptor Is: | A transmembrane protein receptor that plays a role in biosignalling |
| The Three Components Of Attitude Include: | Affective (emotional), Behavioral (attitude which results in a tendency to behave in a certain manner), and cognitive (thoughts and beliefs) |
| Absolute Poverty Is A Level Of Poverty In Which An Individual Is: | Unable to afford minimal standards of food, shelter, clothing, and healthcare |
| Relative Poverty Is A Level Of Poverty In Which An Individual earns Less: | Than a predetermined income threshold that is relative to others in the population being studied |
| Piaget's Theory Of Cognitive Development Divides Cognitive Development Into The: | Sensorimotor stage, preoperational stage, concrete operational stage, and formal operational stage |
