Biology Test #1

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Term
Definition
Atoms   smallest observable unit of matter in a RXN.  
🗑
CHNOPS   Carbon, Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Phosphate, Sulfur  
🗑
Chemical Bonds   hold atoms together in a molecule/compound  
🗑
Ionic Bonds   Positive/negative atoms attract and link together Separate in water (electrolytes/minerals living things need)  
🗑
Covalent Bonds   Share electrons, Protons same on both atoms, electrons equal protons with some shared  
🗑
Molecule/Compound   Consists of 2 or more atoms held together by a form of a chemical bond  
🗑
Ions   Any atom or molecule that has a charge (+/-) (when atoms gain or lose electrons they become ions)  
🗑
Polarity   opposite ends have opposite charges (form H bonds with water) sometimes happens in a covalent bond where electrons are not shared equally making one side more charged causing polarity  
🗑
Non-polar   Don't form H bonds with water dissolve poorlu  
🗑
Solubility   Ability of solute to dissolve in solvent  
🗑
solute   dissolves into solvent  
🗑
solvent   liquid in which solute dissolves in  
🗑
Polar molecules   Love Water (Hydrophilic)  
🗑
Hydrophilic   Love water dissolve easily  
🗑
Hydrophobic   Water fearing dissolve poorly  
🗑
Chemical RXN's   Making and breaking of bonds Can be reversed in biology so pay attn to arrow reactants left products right  
🗑
Organic   Contains Carbon and Hydrogen atoms  
🗑
Inorganic molecules   Dont contain Carbon and Hydrogen atoms  
🗑
Polymer   Large organic molecule made by monomers linking together.  
🗑
Making/Breaking Polymers   Making polymer = dehydration or condensation rxn Breaking polymer = Hydrolysis RXN  
🗑
Carbohydrates   Contain Carbon, Hydrogen,Oxygen in a 1:2:1 ratio  
🗑
Monosaccharide Disaccharide Polysaccharide   one carbon ring two carbon rings many carbon rings  
🗑
Function of cells   Energy/storage Build complex structures Signal Molecules Part of DNA and RNA  
🗑
Lipids (functions)   Fats:Insoluble in water Functions:Energy source and storage/part of cell membrane/ signaling/protection  
🗑
Triglycerides   Type of lipid: entirely hydrophobic with 3 straight tails, link together/solids  
🗑
Steroids   Type of Lipid: no fatty acids/20 carbon atoms/ 4 carbon ring/no tails  
🗑
Phospholipids   Type of Lipid: 2 Tails, phosphate(hydrophilic) head, Hydrophobic tails  
🗑
Fatty acids   very hydrophobic/insoluble/nonpolar  
🗑
Amino Acids   Used as signals or precursers to other things Anime/Carboxyl/Side R group 20 common amino acids that differ at the R group  
🗑
Proteins (functions)   Polymers of amino acids formed by peptide bonds Function:enzymes, signaling, structure, defense, transport, motors, energy source.  
🗑
Primary structure   sequence of amino acids in a protein that determines everything  
🗑
Nucleic Acid   [[Polymers of nucleotides]] Carry energy,help enzymes, send messages  
🗑
cell membrane   Fluid mosaic model Phospholipids arrange in bi-layer, proteins stay in bi-layer Fluid part"unless anchored proteins/phospholipids can move freely)  
🗑
Semi Permeable Selectively permeable   Some things can pass in some cannot what can/ cant pass through is regulated This is determined by membrane protiens  
🗑
Membrane Functions   Seperate the outside and inside of a cell controls what enters/leaves (energy,information,material) Some chemical rxn's occur in or on membrane  
🗑
organelles   Structures that have specialized functions  
🗑
Process   Anything that can happen  
🗑
Spontaneous Non-spontaneous   happens on its own releases energy consumes energy  
🗑
Coupled processes   non-spontaneous process paired with a spontaneous and uses the spontaneous rxns energy to carry out its process  
🗑
catalyst   speed up reaction without being consumed  
🗑
enzyme   catalyst of biology, most are proteins and have metal parts  
🗑
metabolism   all chemical reactions and other processes  
🗑
ATP   A nucleotide that is an immediate energy source for cellular process that require energy Energy in almost all Processes  
🗑
Membrane transport   Important cell function that moves things in and out of cells  
🗑
Passive transport   Simple diffusion(high to low concentration) Facilitated diffusion  
🗑
Osmosis   transfer from high to low concentration (water) across a semi permeable membrane Water moves through aqua ports [[Water follows the solute]]  
🗑
Facilitated diffusion   requires transfer protein polar and charged ions  
🗑
Isotonic Soln   solute out = solute in No osmosis  
🗑
Hypertonic Soln   Solute out > solute in Osmosis directed out cell shrinks  
🗑
Hypotonic Soln   solute out < solute in Osmosis directed in Cell swells (can burst)  
🗑
Active Transport   Low to high concentration Requires energy usually ATP Requires a membrane protien (pump)  
🗑
Oxidation Reduction   Lose Electrons Gain Electrons  
🗑
Oxidation/Reduction   Electrons can be transferred as H+ ions happens in many rxns  
🗑
Electrons/Energy   Energy of a molecule depends on how much energy the electrons have  
🗑
Photosynthesis   Redox Rxn CO2 reduced, Water Oxidizes Couples with light rxn to occur light goes to chemical energy in the chloroplasts  
🗑
Light RXN summary   Light energy gets converted to chemical energy ATP- High energy NADPH Good Electron Donor NADPH has been made for the reduction of CO2  
🗑
Calvin-Benson Cycle   CO2 = Low energy CH2O = High energy Energy in ATP and NADPH added to the C atoms during the cycle C atoms reduced by NADPH G3P is the product (a 3-c Sugar)  
🗑
Aerobic Cellular Respiration   Process that gets energy out of high energy nucleotides in ATP Oxidation of Glucose = Spontaneous Synthesis of ATP is not spontaneous Is a redox process Glucose oxidized Oxygen reduced  
🗑
Impt Reactions Redox: Substance level phosphorylations Decarbodylations   Electrons Transferred as NADH and FADH Make Some ATP Release CO2  
🗑
Krebs Cycle   all 6 C atoms releas os CO2 Some energy transeferd to 4 ATP molecules H atoms and energy from glucose now NADH amd FADH2 Redox not finished most energy left in high energy electrons  
🗑
Getting energy out of High Energy Electrons   NADH and FADH2 travel through redox rxns in cristae membranes and release energy Energy used to actively transport H+ across cristae membrane Energy now in H+ which moves across membrane and ATP synthase uses that energy to make ATP  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
