Which one of these is an organic compound?
Water
Carbon dioxide
Glucose


Give this one a try later!


glucose (C6H12O6)




What conditions do most enzymes work best at?


Give this one a try later!

, for humans:
temperature: 35-40°C (95-104°F)
pH: neutral (6-8)
EXCEPTIONS TO BOTH




Besides passing electrons to each other through an electron transport chain, what
else do these proteins do? (Follow green arrows).


Give this one a try later!


use energy released from electron transfers to actively transport H+ across
the membrane, from lass concentrated to more concentrated




What are the distinctions between phagocytosis and receptor-mediated endocytosis?


Give this one a try later!


phagocytosis: plasma membrane eats large molecules by wrapping
extensions around called pseudopodia and puts them in membrane-
enclosed sac called a vacuole; vacuole fuses with lysosome and uses
hydraulic enzymes to digest particles
receptor-mediated endocytosis: receptor proteins for specific molecules
are embedded in regions of the membrane that are lined by a layer of coat
proteins; plasma membrane indents to form a coated pit, whose receptor
proteins pick up particular molecules from extracellular fluid; coated pit
pinches closed to form a vesicle, which then releases into the cytoplasm




What is the main function of fats?


Give this one a try later!

, long term energy storage




Compare and contrast eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells:


Give this one a try later!


eukaryotic: membrane around DNA (nucleus), cell wall only in plants

prokaryotic: no nucleus, smaller ribosomes, cell wall, flagella

Animalia


Give this one a try later!


1. Prokaryotes
- domain bacteria -domain archaea
2. Eukaryotes
- domain eukarya
kindgom(s) protista kingdom fungi *kingdom animalia




List the molecular bond types:


Give this one a try later!


1. covalent bond- share electrons (1, 2, or 3 pairs); can be VERY strong.
2. ionic bond- electrons are not shared ( EX. NaCl [table salt]- Cl takes Na's
valence electron to complete 3rd shell which makes both of them ions,
earning charges)
3. hydrogen bond- attraction between a slightly positive hydrogen (from a
polar molecule) and a slightly negative atom (from a different polar
molecule) (weak, easily broken with heat)




How would know if something was alive? What are the characteristics that define all
life?
