QuestionAnswer
Mast cells secrete histamine->blood vessel dilation
macrophages secrete chemokines
chemokines chem gradient path
neutrophils come out of blood vessels, destroy antigens phago style
dendritic cells capture antigens and present , messengers between innate and adaptive systems
Lymphocytes adaptive B and T cells
Do B cells of T cells bind directly to antigens? B cells bind directly, T cells bind only to antigens that have been presented
Class 1 MHC proteins Antigen is from within the cell, MHC is loaded in ER
Class II MHC Proteins Antigen is from outside of cell, MHC is loaded in endosome
Four functions of antibodies opsonization, neutralization, agglutination, activate complement proteins(lethal)

surrounding oocyte vitellene envelope(zona pellucida humans) and then corona radiata
zona pellucida equals vitelline envelope
jelly layer in sea urchin equals corona radiata in mammals
during the follicular phase, estradiol levels are initially low, inhibiting LH, until growth and subsequent LH surge
In luteal phase, estradiol and progesterone levels: estradiol levels are low, progesterone levels high
Rise in progesterone levels during luteal phase inhibits LH and FSH, causes thickened uterine lining
the corpus luteum secretes progesterone
High progesterone causes...(high or low LH) Low LH
No fertilization- progesterone levels fall as corpus luteum degenerates, fall in progesterone causes lining to shed
whats bigger- ovary or ovule ovary
POllen grain includes tube cell nucleus and generative cell
what is the generative cell divides by mitosis to form 2 sperm cells
Symplastic route via plasmodesmata (cytoplasmic channels)
apoplastic route cells walls and places between cells(blocked at casparian strip)
transmembrane route via aquaporins

acclimitization is a reversible phenotypic change in an individual in response to environment
endotherm basal metabolic rate is enought to keep warm
homeotherm keeps temperature constant
trichomes hairlike outgrowths of epidermis on shoot system
Three types of ground tissue Parenchyma, collenchyma, sclerenchyma
Parenchyma most common, in leaves theyre filled with chloroplasts, totipotent-can develop into entire plant
collenchyma primarily in shoot support
sclerenchyma thick secondary wall(lignin) in addition to primary (cellulose), usually dead at maturity
under root cap: zone of division-elongation-maturation
protoderm gives rise to dermal tissue system
ground meristem gives rise to ground tissue system(bulk of primary plant body)
procambium gives rise to vascular tissue system
cambium cylinder of meristematic cells running length of root/trunk/branch increase with during secondary growth produces second xylem towards interior and secondary phloem towards exterior
What is photorespiration reverse of photosynthesis, occurs when Rubisco adds O2 to Rubp rather than Co2 increases in hot and dry conditions
C3 pathway "classic" rubisco catalyzes CO2 to RuBP @ bundle sheath cells
C4 pathway CO2 is first fixed by Pep carboxylase @mesophyll cells, 4C product is transported to bundle sheath cells for Calvin
C4 is more efficient because releases C at bundle sheath cells near Rubisco, higher affinity than O2
CAM Like C4, uses Pep carboxylase, acts as a CO2 concentrator before calvin cycle, make 4C compund. Stomata open at night, let in CO2 into CAM cycle, Calvin happens during the day with stomata closed
Rank nitrogenous waste from least to most water Ammonia dissufion, pee out urea, uric acid
Osmoconforming cartilagenous fish salinity isnt that of the ocean, but urea conc keeps osmolarity equals cost=proteins to deal with urea
malphigian tubules filter out urine from the hemolymph of insects active transport K in, solutes and N waste follow, water reabsorbed at hindgut
apical membrane faces hollow butthole
Shark rectal gland Na K pump on basolateral membrane establishes gradient grandient- end goal export Cl out apical side
ADH released when dehydrated, causes aquaporin insertion, large amount of H2O reabsorbed
macronutrients means large quantities are needed N P K
Cations in soil attach to neg charged soil, prevent from leeching but hard to extract, anions dissolve in water bc of H bonding, available for absorption but easily leached
Cation exchange more acidic soil from Co2 release, protons displace cations off soil particles
Mycorrhize exchange nutrients for sugar
symbiotic bacteria fix nitrogen, Rhizobium genus, nodules, take sugar from plant flavanoids and nod factors are species specific
chemoreception in tast buds food chemicals bind to membrane protein, trigger action potential in sensory neurons
Odorants axons from olfactory neurons project to glomoleruli and olfactory bulb each chemo neuron has one type of oder receptor protein
mechanoreceptors detect pressure changes
what is the ear vibrates basilar membrane, shair cells stereocillia sandwhiched btween basilar membran and tectoral membrane, narrow towards oval window, hair cells respond to their specific frequency
Who digests protein in the stomach Pepsin- stored as inactive form pepsinogen, activated by acid
Pancreatic lipase digests lipids in SI, but needs bile salts to first emulsify fats
What cells secrete HCl Parietal cells. Pump out H using ATP. Carbonic acid is exchanged for Cl at the basolateral side. CL diffuses into lumen
What secretes pepsinogen chief cells
Proteases function where the SI, they are made in inactive form in the pancreas
enteropeptidase activates trypsin from trypsinogen, activates all other proteases
secretin hormone in response to food arrival in stomach
Insulin secreted by pancreas when blood glucose is too high. Acts by binding to receptors on cells and increasing their glucose uptake
When blood glucose is too low, pancreas secretes glucagon. stimulates liver cells to beak down glycogen into glucose
Type 1 diabete dont synthesize insulin bc insulin producing cells of pancreas are self-destroyed Type 2 - cells resistant to insulin
Acid growth hyporthesis proton pumps out, cell is neg inside so K+ enters, water follows
Phytochrome A pigment protein with two conformations. When Pr absorbs red light it converts to Pfr, when Pfr absorbs far red light it converts back to Pr. Pfr form activates seed germination because it means there hasnt been any Far red light.
Which phytochrome conformation encourages germination? Pfr
Amyloplasts starch storing organelles, activate membrane pressure receptors in root cap cells. stimulating gravitropic response
In roots, auxin Inhibits growth
thigmotropism moving in response to touch
Cytokinins promote cell division and senescense, made in developing organs and root apical meristem, bind to receptors in the ER, activates cyclins to regulate cell cycle
Giberellins hormone, stimulate growth diffuse from embryo to aleurone layer, which releases a amylase to break starch to sugar for embryo
Abscisic acid hormone, inhibits growth
brassinosteroids increase mass, are a steroid hormone but dont eneter the cell
Steroid hormones from cholesterol, hydrophobic, diffuse freely across phoslip bilayer
Thyroid hormones are unique becuase t3 and t4, they are lipid soluble, despite being amine derived
Insulin is what kind of hormone peptide
How does an action potential start voltage gated Na channels, Na rushes in
ligand gated channels neurotransmitters bind , open post synaptic channels to depolarize the cell
Efferent carries infor from CNS to PNS,
Somatic voluntary
Autonomic involuntary parasympathetic- rest and digest sympathetic-fight or flight
tropomyosin and troponin regulatory for skel muscles, sit on thin(actin) filament and block myosin binding site. Inhibited by Ca2+
Acetylcholine a neurotransmitter. Muscle have ligand gated channel to with Ach is the ligand. Ach binds, opens channels, depolarization.AP spreads down T tubule. Ca channels open in sarcoplasmic reticulum.
Myoglobin HOlds O2 in muscles, especially slow oxidative fibers
Constitutive defenses vs inducible defenses waxy cuticle and spikes vs drugs, proteinase inhibitors
systemin wound response hormone, causes jasmonic acid(hormone) to induce production of proteinase inhibitors
After hypersensitive response hormone travels throughout plant to activate systematic aquired resistance and prime rest of plant body for defense.
parthenogenesis asexual repro, identical DNA
lymphocytes are B and T cells, mature in bone marrow and thymus
Each B cell makes one specific kind of antibody
Antibodies vs B cell receptors identical, but secreted rather than transmembrane
BCRs cover the surface of B cells. recognize specific antigen epitope.
Once the BCR contacts epitope of antigen B cell will display antigen via class II MHC protein on its surface. Complementary TH2 will bind to MHC protein-antigen complex, and activate the B cell via cytokines, activated B cell will divide and make antibodies
TH2 vs TH1 TH2 activates B cells. TH1 activates cytotoxic T cells
BCR can bind directly to antigen epitope
TCRs cannot bind directly to antigen. The need other cells like dentritic cells to process antigen into peptide fragments and display via MHC proteins
cross linking On a B cell, BCRs will bind many epitopes at once- activates B cell kind of. once activated, cloning happens
Class II MHC proteins (antigen from outside) are loaded in endosomes, whereas Class I MHC proteins (from inside) are loaded at the Er
CD4 t cells recognize dendritic cells that present antigens via MHC class II proteins
CD8 t cells recognize dendritic cells that present antigens via MHC class I proteins
CD8 t cells become cytotoxic t cells, will destroy infected cells
CD4 t cells become helper t cells. TH1-activate cytotoxic t cells. TH2-activate B cells
B cell displays antigen fragments and needs permission from TH2 cell to activate.
humoral response especially effective for antigens outside cells. involves TH2 cells activating B cells that make antibodies- opsonization, neutralization, agglutination, lethal proteins
cell mediated response target infected host cells (intracellular antigens). involves TH1 cells that activate phago and cytotoxic t cells
attenuated viruses alive, but from other species
vitelline envelope in human is called zona pellucida
jelly layer equals corona radiata
acrosome contents digest jelly layer
bindin protein on PM of egg and sperm that recognizes same species
Ca wave causes cort granules to fuse and release proteases to kill sperm receptor, ions released to area btwn PM and vit env, water follows
the corpus luteum excretes PROGESTERONE, which negatively inhibits LH and FSH
normally, low estrogen exhibits neg feedback
estrogen surge causes switch to pos feedback,, LH surge, follicle rupture
