| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Identify the major features shared by all cells | plasma membrane, ribosomes, chromosomes, cytosol |
| plant cells have... | a cell wall, chloroplast, a single vacuole, and NO centriols |
| animal cells have... | no cell wall,no chloroplast, small vacuoles, |
| Vacuole | torage, breakdown of waste products, |
| chlorplast | site of photosynthesis |
| nucleus | houses cells DNA |
| ribosomes | protein synthesis |
| smooth ER | synthesiszes lipids and detoxifies proteins or d rugs |
| Microtubules | Cell shape and support; act as tracks for motor proteins (transport |
| Microfilaments | Cell motility, maintenance of cell shape; |
| Intermediate Filaments | Anchorage of the nucleus and certain other organelles |
| The Fluid Mosaic Model describes the | biological membrane as a mosaic of protein molecules bobbing in a fluid bilayer of phospholipids. |
| What structures interact with the phospholipid bilayer intracellularly | Cytoskeleton (especially microfilaments and peripheral proteins), and signaling molecules/enzymes |
| What structures interact with the phospholipid bilayer extracellularly? | glycoproteins, glycolipids, extracellular matrix |
| passive transport | no energy ATP required, down then concentration gradient |
| active transport | requires ATP, goes against the concentration gradiant |
| If the external solute concentration increases (becoming hypertonic), the cell will | loose water and shrivel |
| . If the external solute concentration decreases (becoming hypotonic), the cell will gain | swell and gain water |
| Give examples of passive transport and active transport in a living cell. Passive Transport Examples | Simple diffusion(o2 or co2 moving across a the cell membrane), facilitated diffusion, osmosis |
| active transport examples | sodium pottassium pump, |
| Endocytosis and exocytosis are forms of | bulk transport that move large molecules or whole substances across the membrane using vesicles |
| Endocytosis brings substances | into the cell by forming a vesicle |
| Exocytosis exports substances | out of the cell by fusing a vesicle with the plasma membrane |
| Thermal Energy | heat released from working muscles |
| Chemical Energy | Glucose/atp |
| poteintial energy | ion concentration gradiant across a membrane |
| kinetic energy | a molecule vibrating |
| Catabolic Reaction | Break down complex molecules into simpler one, releasing energy, exergonic |
| anabolic reaction | Build complex molecules from simpler ones, consume energy, and are endergonic |
| The First Law of Thermodynamics (Law of Conservation of Energy) states that energy can be transferred and transformed, but it cannot be created or destroyed. In living systems | a cell must acquire energy, the total amount of energy remains constant |
| The Second Law of Thermodynamics states that every energy transfer or transformation increases the entropy (disorder or randomness) of the universe. In living systems | cells can create order locally and a constant input of energy is required to maintain cells low entropy state |
| Gibbs Free Energy (ΔG) is the portion of a system's energy that can | perform work when temperature and pressure are uniform throughout the system |
| Entropy (S) is a measure of the | disorder or randomness in a system. |
| Enthalpy (H) is a measure of the total | heat content (or total potential energy) of a system |
| spontaneous reactions are those that can occur without a | net input of energy, negative exergonic |
| Nonspontaneous reactions are those that require a | net input of energy to proceed. They are characterized by a positive ΔG |
| How does ATP hydrolysis release energy? What bond(s) is/are broken during this process? | he bond broken is the terminal high-energy phosphate bond. This bond is often called a "high-energy" bond because its hydrolysis is highly exergonic |
| Energy coupling is the use of an | exergonic process (like ATP hydrolysis) to drive an endergonic process. |
