Micro Chapter 4 KT

QuestionAnswer
smallest unit of matter (chonps) atoms
monosaccharides glucose
disaccharides lactose
polysaccharides glycogen: storage cellulose: plant form, indigestible chitin: mushrooms, seafood
fats/lipids long term energy ex. triglycerides --> storage form
phospholipids make up cell membranes
proteins chains of amino acids
protein has to... to function fold
Protein folding order primary: order of amino acids secondary: shapes (helix, pleated sheet) tertiary: three dimensional, ball up quaternary: protein + protien
secondary structure shapes alpha helix, beta pleated sheet
examples of quaternary folding hemoglobin, antibodies
nucleic acids DNA, RNA, ATP
DNA encodes genetic info in genes
RNA transfer info from gene to protein
dna nucleotide bases A to T C to G
DNA double helix is supported by... sugar phosphate backbones
mRNA messanger RNA single strand that is the blueprint
tRNA transfer RNA brings the matches. anticodons
prokaryotic cells no true nucleus or membrane bound organelles bacteria
eukaryotic cells all other organisms
typical bacterial cell prokaryote has cell wall dna in cytoplasm ribosomes present flagella, cillia, pilus
pilus penis of a bacteria
gram-positive thick cell wall purple staph + strep, along w spores (antrax, tetinis)
gram-negative thin cell wall, e-coli opportunistic like pseudomonas
gram-negative cell wall peptidoglycan lipopolysaccharide
lipopolysaccharide molecule extending from outer membrane
______ is the toxic portion of LPS. Lipid A
mycobacterial envelope cell wall w peptidoglycan and mycolic acid use acid fast stain TB
bacterial nucleoid membrane protection one chromosome lil extra dna in plasmid
plasmid conveys virulance and antibiotic resistance
bacteria contains ribosomes that are structurally different --> why we can use antibiotics bc we cam be selectively toxic
monotrichous single flagella
lophotrichous many flagella at same point, tuft
amphitrichous flagella at both ends
petrichous flagella everywhere
binary fission mitosis in bacteria (asexual reproduction)
transcription DNA --> RNA to be read
Translation mRNA codons --> matched w tRNA anticodon to make proteins
tRNA match pairs A to U C to G

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
