I'm Lichen Bio Char

I'm Lichen Bio Char of Life Unit

QuestionAnswer
what elements are found in all organic molecules C and H
name some inorganic compounds found in cells water, oxygen, carbon dioxide
what elements are found in living things CHON
what are the two parts of the cell theory Cells are the basic unit of structure and function of living things, and all cells come from preexisting cells.
what is the function of enzymes speed up the rate of chemical reactions
what type of organic compound is an enzyme protein
what organelles are the sites of cellular respiration mitochondria
what is the main result of aerobic respiration ATP
what is the function of ribosomes protein synthesis
name 2 cell organelles that plant cells have and animal cells don't cell wall and chloroplast
used to transplant cell nuclei microdissection instruments
organelle that controls the cell and contains DNA nucleus
function of vacuoles in plants store wastes
function of contractile vacuoles in protists maintain water balance by pumping out excess water
process that moves molecules from a high concentration to a low concentration diffusion
function of chloroplasts photosynthesis
chemical make up of plasma membrane double lipid layer, with proteins embedded
unicellular organisms like the amoeba, euglena and paramecia Protists
function of cytoplasm holds organelles, transport inside cell (streaming) and site of some chemical reactions
function of plasma membrane boundary for cell, cell signaling, controls what goes in and out of cell
term for substance an enzyme works on substrate
effect of slight increase in temp on rate of enzyme action increase, due to molecules moving faster
effect of large increase in temp on rate of enzyme action decreases rate, due to changing shape of enzyme active site, so it can no longer fit with substrate
how do hormones attach to cells receptor molecules in cell membrane
tool to obtain detailed info about internal structure of cell organelles electron microscope
in a reaction diagram, how do you identify the enzyme? the shape that stays the same through the entire reaction
indicator for starch Lugol's iodine
pH of 7 neutral
pH of 4 acidic
pH of 9 basic
indicator for glucose Benedict's solution
shape of plant cells rectangular
use of stains such as iodine to make cell organelles more visible, such as the nucleus
how to calculate the total magnification of a microscope multiply the eyepiece X the objective
1 mm = ? micrometers 1000
proper order of steps for using a light microscope low-power, coarse adjustment, fine adjustment, medium power, fine adj, high power, fine adj
why do you start with low power field of view is larger with low power, so easier to find what you are looking for
what type of compounds are organisms composed of both organic and inorganic
why are enzymes necessary for survival to speed up chem reactions, otherwise they would occur too slowly, organisms would die.
if an enzyme digests proteins, will it digest starch no, enzymes are specific
if an organism carries out aerobic respiration, it must have adaptations for _____ _______ gas exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide
appearance of mitochondria bean shaped with folded membranes inside
if starch is digested, what is the result simple sugars
if proteins are digested, what is the result amino acids
4 differences between plant and animals cells plant cells have large vacuoles, are rectangular, have chloroplasts and cell walls
know how to read enzyme graphs check in notes and on worksheets
be able to label a cell diagram use notes and worksheets
describe what molecules the cell membrane is made of and what they look like lipids - 2 layers of balloons with 2 strings, and proteins - big blobs like icebergs
allows amount of light to be adjusted in a microscope diaphragm
2 substances used as stains for microscope work methylene blue and Lugol's iodine
3 exceptions to the cell theory viruses, first cell, mitochondria and chloroplasts have their own DNA
a substance that turns color in the presence of a certain molecule indicator
levels of organization from simplest to most complex cells, tissues, organs, organ systems, organism
what factor was most important in the development of the cell theory invention and improvement of microscope
how is the image seen through a scope different from reality upside down and backwards
how do you center an off-center specimen move the slide in the opposite direction from what it appears to need
indicator for protein Biuret turns pink/purple
indicator for lipids translucent spot on brown paper
building blocks of lipids fatty acids and glycerol
molecules that can easily pass through the cell membrane small ones, such as water, oxygen, carbon dioxide, amino acids, and glucose
movement of molecules from low concentrations to high concentrations active transport
what is needed for contractile vacuole in protists to function ATP
function of the endoplasmic reticulum canals through the cytoplasm, carry substances from ribosomes to golgi apparatus
function of golgi apparatus packages proteins
pigment found in chloroplasts chlorophyll
word equation for respiration glucose plus oxygen plus mitochondrial enzymes produces carbond dioxide, water and energy
usable form of energy for cell metabolism ATP
