Midterm Vocab Review
Kinases - Photorespiration
| Question | Question | Answer |
|---|---|---|
| the resultant state caused by the entry of water from a hypotonic environment | this state causes force to be exerted outward on a cell wall | turgid |
| cAMP is an example of one | help hormones transmit their message because hormones cannot pass through phospholipid bilayer | second messengers |
| a form of communication among cells that are close together | when one cell secretes message and target cells receive it as opposed to synaptic and hormonal signaling | paracrine signaling |
| long lasting but slow moving due to message only being acted on once it reaches DNA | a class of lipids characterized by a carbon skeleton consisting of four rings with various functional groups attached | steroid hormones |
| in the electron transport chain, oxygen serves as this | driving force for cellular respiration because it is needed to pull electrons towards it to release energy, which is why it's role in the ETC is integral | final electron acceptor |
| powers most ATP synthesis in cells | the production of ATP using the energy of hydrogen-ion gradients across membranes to phosphorylate ADP | chemiosmosis |
| NAD+ is are examples of this | power ETC by transporting electrons | electron carrier |
| one molecule gains electrons and another loses them | OIL RIG (oxidation is loss, reduction is gain) | redox reactions |
| an iron containing protein, a component of ETC in mitochondria and chloroplasts | capable of facilitating oxidation and reduction | cytochromes |
| rice, wheat, and soybeans | RuBP binds to excess O2 and photorespiration occurs | C3 plants |
| sugarcane, corn | can partially close stomata during the day, decreasing both CO2 concentration and water loss, without stopping the Calvin Cycle | C4 plants |
| cacti, pineapples | stomata open only at night; converts CO2 and 3 carbon molecules into 4 carbon molecule organic acids | CAM plant |
| oxygen binds to RuBP and it "burns" the NADPH and ATP engergy, but produces no glucose | occurs when there is insufficient carbon dioxide; used to maintain sufficient carbon dioxide levels | Photorespiration |
| give phosphates to other molecules | cyclin dependent ones require it to activate | kinases |
