Chemistry and Resp

Chemistry and Respiration Test Review

QuestionAnswer
Inorganic does not contain carbon and hydrogen together
Organic must contain carbon and hydrogen together
Carbohydrates contain C, H, O in a 2:1 ratio of H to O, made up of simple sugars, like fructose, provide the cells with energy
Proteins contain C, H, O, N carboxyl and amine groups, made up of amino acids, found in meat, beans, plants, needed for the function of all life processes
Lipids contain C, H, O made up of glycerol and fatty acids, oils, waxes, butter, used for back up energy, protection, and steroids
Nucleic Acids contain C, H, O, N hold genetic information in them, building blocks are nucleotides
Hydrolysis to break molecules from larger to smaller, starch breaks down to glucose, Lipids break down to glycerol and fatty acids, proteins break down to amino acids
Dehydration Synthesis to make molecules, glucose is combined to form starch, glycerol and fatty acids combine to form lipids, amino acids combine to form proteins
Disaccharide two sugar molecules together
Polysaccharide many sugar molecules together
Enzyme shape specific, can only do the job specific to their shape, need optimal pH and temperature to work, are needed for all reactions to occur
Catalyst enzymes that speed up reactions
Enzyme-Substrate complex lock and key fit, a specific enzyme can only work on a specific complex
Peptide one amino acid
Dipeptide two amino acids together
Peptide bond bond that exists between amino acids, in between the carboxyl and amine groups
Carboxyl COOH acid group
Amine NH2 amine group
Aerobic Respiration requires oxygen and glucose in order to make ATP, waste products are water and carbon dioxide, takes place in mitochondria
Anaerobic Respiration does not require oxygen, glycolysis and fermentation are both forms
Glycolysis makes 4 ATP, takes glucose and breaks it down to two pyruvic acids
Kreb's cycle takes pyruvic acid and converts it into acetyl-CoA, this molecule is then changed to carbon, makes 2 ATP, cycle happens twice
Electron Transport Chain sends electrons down a chain of proteins to ATP synthase which makes 32 ATP
NAD and FAD electron carriers that supply energy to the parts of respiration
ATP Adenosine triphosphate is the form of energy our bodies use
Lactic Acid Fermentation after glycolysis if oxygen isn't present, humans go through this, it makes 2 ATP, lactic acid, carbon dioxide, and water, it causes muscle cramps and fatigue
Alcoholic Fermentation after glycoloysis if oxygen isn't present, bacteria and yeast go through this, it makes 2 ATP, alcohol, carbon dioxide, and water, it creates beer and wine
Photosynthesis water, sunlight, and carbon dioxide enter the chloroplast in order to be made into oxygen and glucose
Guard cells open and close the stomates
Stomata air spaces in the leaf that allow gas exchange to occur
`What occurs during the digestion of proteins specific enzymes break down proteins into amino acids
A characteristic shared by all enzymes, hormones, and antibodies is that their function is determined by the shape of their molecules
What happens to certain nutrient molecules after they pass into muscle cells they are acted on by enzymes and release the energy they contain
What characteristics allows enzymes to function in a specific way each enzyme has a characteristic shape
Catalyst enzyme
In an ecosystem, what happens to the atoms of certain chemical elements such as carbon, oxygen, and nitrogen they move into and out of living systems
Which substances are necessary for the synthesis of most materials in an organism enzymes
Constant replacement and reshuffling of atoms within the human body It is a normal characteristic of body chemistry
Iron is an important element in the human body because of it direct role in what oxygen transport in the blood
The absorption of iron by the intestinal lining can be considered an example of what homeostasis
The function of ferritin in the body was most likely determined by studies involving what use of radioactive iron
The energy an organism requires to transport materials and eliminate wastes is obtained directly from what ATP
The normal sodiu level in human blood is 135mEq/L. If a blood test taken immediately after a meal reveals a sodium level of 150mEq/L, what will most likely result? An adjustment within the human body will be made to restore homestasis
Which disease damages the human immune system, leaving the body open to certain infectious agents AIDS
What usually results when an organism fails to maintain homeostasis? The organism becomes ill or may die
Activites that are a response of human white blood cells to pathogens Engulfing and destroying bacteria, producing antibodies and Identifying invaders for destruction
In some individuals, the immune system attacks substances such as grass pollen that are usually harmless, resulting in what? An allergic reaction
If a human system fails to function properly, what is the most likely result? a disturbance in homeostasis
What best describes cellular respiration (a process that occurs continuously in the cells of organisms) changing of stored chemical energy in food molecules to a form usable by organisms
What are characteristics of antibodies? They are produced by the body in response to the presence of foreign substances, may be produced in response to an antigen and may be produced by white blood cells
Eating a sweet potato provides energy for human metabolic processes. The original source of this energy is the energy which is made available by photosynthesis
Which substance may form in the human body due to invaders entering the blood? Antibodies
Immune response It usually involves the recognition and destruction of pathogens.
Feedback mechanism involving the human pancreas the level of sugar in the blood is affected by the amount of insulin in the blood
The energy found in ATP molecules synthesized in animal cells comes directly from what? Organic Molecules
How carbohydrates provide energy for life functions during respiration the energy that is held in carbohydrate bonds is transferred to ATP molecules where if can be released to provide the energy needed for life functions
