AP BIO ch 6-7 test

QuestionAnswer
differences between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells and animal/ plant location of DNA animal; Lysosomes centrioles flagella plants: chloroplasts central vacuole cell wall plasmodesmata
signal transduction protein has binding site with shape that fits shape of a chemical messenger, can cause protein to change shape which relays message to inside the cell by binding to cytoplasm protein
attachment proteins microfilaments/ cytoskeleton elements that are non covalently bonded to membrane proteins- maintain cell shape/location of membrane proteins, and can coordinate extra/intracellular changes.
carrier protein/do they allow any substances to pass through them bind to molecules and change shape (close/open) to shuttle them across the membrane. They only move specific substances
plasmolysis when a plant cells loses water to its surroundings and shrinks and its plasma membrane pulls away from the wall. causes it to wilt or die
what is voltage in terms of membranes and cells? which side of the cell membrane is typically -/+? voltage is created by differences in the distribution of positive and negative ions across a membrane. cytoplasmic side= negative charge, extracellular side= positive charge
what is the membrane potential/ how it is useful for cell? its the voltage difference across a membrane, used for cellular work (regions on inside (+), want out) ( regions on outside (-), want in).
phagocytosis type of endocytosis, cellular eating- lysosome will fuse to dump digestive enzymes to break down. (food, other smaller cells)
pinocytosis cellular drinking- brings in fluids or small molecules (liquids, small molecules)
receptor mediated endocytosis when a substance binds with a receptor protein and triggers endocytosis (requires receptor protein) vitamins, hormones
chromatin the complex of DNA and proteins making up chromosomes, unwound DNA, in non dividing cells
chromosomes structures that carry genetic information, each contains one long DNA molecule when many proteins
lysosome a membranous sac of hydrolytic enzymes that can digest macromolecules hydrolyzes proteins, fats, polysaccharides, and nucleic acids enzymes work best in the acidic environment inside the lysosome Digestion
vacuoles derived from endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus, Storage compartments In plant cells,large vacuole maintains turgor pressure through nutrient and water storage. In animal cells, are smaller in size/more plentiful/ store cellular materials.
food vacuole are formed by phagocytosis, fuses with Lysosomes whos enzymes digest the food
contractile vacuole found in many freshwater protists, pump excess water out of cells, maintains suitable concentration of ions and molecules
central vacuole found in many mature plant cells, hold organic compounds and water, develops by other small vacuoles, plays major role in growth of cell
motor proteins required for cell mobility with interaction with cytoskeleton
centrosome area where microtubules are produced
centriole within centrosomes each has set of MTs arranged in a ring (believed to help in the organization of MT during cell division)
extracellular matrix made up of glycoproteins such as collagen, proteoglycans, and fibronectin ECM proteins bind to receptor proteins in the plasma membrane called integrins (Support, Adhesion, Movement, Regulation, Cell communication (intercellular))
cell junctions Neighboring cells in tissues, organs, or organ systems often adhere, interact, and communicate through direct physical contact Intercellular junctions facilitate this contact types(Plasmodesmata Tight junctions Desmosomes Gap junctions)
plasmodesmata channels between adjacent plant cells, water and small solutes (and sometimes proteins and RNA) can pass from cell to cell
tight junctions membranes of neighboring cells are pressed together, preventing leakage of extracellular fluid
gap junctions (communicating junctions) provide cytoplasmic channels between adjacent cells
desmosomes (anchoring junctions) fasten cells together into strong sheets
Endomembrane system organelles with a double membrane, regulates protein traffic and performs metabolic functions in the cell (Nuclear envelope, Endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, Lysosomes, Vacuoles, Plasma membrane)
Extracellular components Plants: primary cell wall, middle lamella, secondary cell wall Animals: ECM, collagen, proteoglycans, fibronectin
Intercellular junctions examples Plants: plasmodesmata Animals: tight junctions, desmosomes, gap junctions
explain the sodium potassium pump 3 NA+ ions bind to pump, which cause hydrolysis of ATP, causes protein to change shape/flip to exterior, NA+ are released, 2 K+ bind, causing dephosphorylation, reverts to inward, released K+ (exports more charge than import)
glycolipids vs glycoproteins and their functions surface molecules-identification tags for cell. vital for cell recognition, (allows immune system to distinguish between the body's own cells and foreign invaders), cell adhesion, (helps cells bind together to form tissues.)
nucleoid region when cells DNA is (concentrated in a region that is not membrane enclosed)
cytoplasm surrounds the nucleus and other organelles, filled with cytosol
ribosomes complexes that make proteins according to instructions from genes
nucleus contains most of the genes, controls activities, stores hereditary info
nuclear envelope encloses the nucleus, separating its contents from the cytoplasm, double membrane, pore structured that lets some molecules out of the nucleus
nucleolus structure within the non dividing nucleus, RNA is synthesized by instructions from Dna here
smooth er makes lipids, metabolizes carbs, detoxes drugs, produces steroids
rough er cells secrete proteins when their ribosomes are attached to it. when a polypeptide chain grows its threaded into it then begins to fold. is a membrane factory for a cell
golgi apparatus warehouse for receiving sorting shipping and manufacturing, products from ER go here and then are sent to other destinations. raw products come in, finished come out
mitochondrian site of cellular respiration, metabolic process that uses oxygen to generate atp
chloroplast site of photosynthesis
peroxisomes metabolic compartment, have enzymes that remove H atoms and transfer them to oxygen producing hydrogen peroxide
intermediate filaments fibrous proteins coiled into thicker cables, maintains cell shape
cilia microtube containing extensions that projects from cells, propel through water (oars)
flagella microtube containing extensions that projects from cells, generates force like a tail
simple diffusion passive transport, with gradient, small/non-polar molecules, no protein required
osmosis diffusion of water, facilitated passive diffusion, with gradient, using aquaporins (channel protein), small/non-polar molecules
facilitated diffusion passive transport, with gradient, uses carrier/channel proteins, charger, polar, big molecules
active transport against gradient, uses ATP, carrier proteins and protein pump, ions, sugars etc
exocytosis bulk transport, vesicles from golgi fuse with plasma memb releasing contents
hypertonic vs hypotonic vs isotonic hypertonic- high solute, low h20 (shrivels) hypotonic- low solute, high h20 (expands) isotonic- equal h20/solute on both sides
unsaturated vs saturated fats effect on membrane fluidity unasat- can remain fluid to lower temps sat- pack together, are more rigid at lower temps
cholesterol effect on membrane fluidity it acts as a buffer which stabilizes the membrane (at high temps it keeps it from being too fluid/at low temps keep it from being too rigid, also helps keep phospholipids together
integral proteins span both layers of membrane
peripheral proteins found on extracellular side of membrane only
intercellular joining s the physical connection between adjacent cells to form tissues and facilitate communication. (hooks with membrane proteins in junctions)
cell- cell recognition is a cell's ability to distinguish one type of neighboring cell from another by binding to surface molecules on the plasma membrane.
function of membrane carbs they are like ID tags, when cells bind to surface molecules which contains carbs
sides of bilayer cytoplasmic and extracellular
channel protein a hydrophobic channel that certain molecules or ions can use as a tunnel
turgid turgid- firm healthy state for plant cells
flaccid limp, when plants cant get water
what does it mean when an animal cells lyses in a hypotonic solution when too much water is in cell
what impact does phosphorylation using ATP have on a transport protein? a conformational change (change in shape) that facilitates active transport.
cotransport when active transport of a molecules indirectly drives transport of other molecules
what are some characteristics of the mitochondria and chloroplast that explain their evolution double membrane own circular dna similar size to prokaryotes
aquaporins channel proteins that allow water through the plasma membrane
in the diffusion lab why did the dialysis bag turn blue after the experiment was done iki and starch were present
purpose/ results of cell size lab purpose- to show how molecules diffuse in/throughout a cell and how size/shape affects its diffusion rates. results- the depth that the vinegar penetrated was the same but the volume that was penetrated was different for the different sized cubes
in the diffusion lab what was the purpose and results purpose- show how the contents of solution/ the size of molecules can affect their movement through a cell membrane. results- the ability of substances/molecules to diffuse through the plasma membrane is affected by their size and their concentrations.
in the osmosis lab what was the purpose and results purpose- show how the molarity of a solution in a cell affects the movement of water through its plasma membrane/effects the amount of mass gained/lost by the cell through osmosis. (mass of the bags at end of the experiment showed how water moved)
if a water solution moves into a cell what is the water solution around the cell compared to the cell? the water solution around the cell is hypotonic (low solute, high water) compared to the cell while the cell is hypertonic (high solute, low water) compared to the water solution
if a water solution moves out of a cell what is the water solution around the cell compared to the cell? the water solution around the cell is hypertonic (higher solute, less water) compared to the cell while the cell is hypotonic (less solute, more water) compared to the water solution
function of the mitochondrion's double membrane inner membrane has specialized proteins that create a hydrogen ion concentration gradient between the intermembrane space and the matrix
function of nad+ and fad in cellular respiration except electrons during oxidative reduction reactions
difference between NADH and fadh2 electrons of fadh2 are transferred through 3 complexes of the etc whereas NADH are transferred through all 4 complexes (FAdh2 1.5 ATP, nadh- 2.5 ATP)
