Biology ****

Part 8 and 9

QuestionAnswer
What are the 2 organelles that contain DNA? mitochondria and chloroplasts
function of mitochondria carry out cellular respiration
cellular respiration uses the energy in sugars, fats and proteins to make ATP
Do mitochondria need oxygen to make ATP? YES
chloroplasts convert solar energy to chemical energy in sugars
endosymbiotic theory eukaryotic cell originated as a community of prokaryotes
evidence that support the endosymbiotic theory circular DNA, divide by simple fission, similar size
cytoskeleton supports cell shape, anchors organelles, enable movement
3 kind of protein fibers microfilaments, microtubules, intermediate filaments
microfilaments of actin enable cells to change shape and move
intermediate filaments reinnforce the cell and anchor certain organelles
microtubules give the cell rigidity, provide anchors and tracks for organelles
two kind of cell motor protein kinesin and dynein
what "things" move the cells? flagella and cilia
flagella long and few in #; ex: sperm
cilia short and numerous; ex: ciliated epithelium that line our air passages move debris towards the throat
can phospholipids spontaneously self-assemble when mixed with water? YES
what is energy? capacity to do work
what is work? moving an object against an opposing force
cellular metabolism chemical reactions that process energy
2nd law of thermodynamics energy changes are not 100% efficient
what is a chemical reaction making or breaking of chemical bonds
what much energy does a bond contain? a bond contains the amount of energy used to make it
adenosine triphosphate (ATP) power cellular work
how is the bond joining a phosphate group to the rest of the ATP molecule broken? by hydrolysis
how is the motion of cilia and flagella created? by the microtubules sliding past one another
what are enzymes? proteins that serve as catalysts
name some cellular works that are powered by ATP flagellar movements; cell crawling; heat production; active transport: Na+ K+ pump; motor protein movement; contraction; chemical activation
what is oxidation and reduction oxidation is the loss of electron, reduction is the gain of electron.

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.
