biology essay topics-chemiosmosis
Chemiosmosis - correct answer-- protons pumped through proteins to the other side of the
membrane (active transport)
- build up of proteins which result in an electrochemical gradient
- protons move down electrochemical gradient through the enzyme ATP synthase and ATP
is made
Proteins links - structure - correct answer-- immunity
- enzymes
- haemoglobin
- membrane proteins
- transcriptional factors
- muscles (actin and myosin)
- tissue fluid
structure of protein paragraph - correct answer-
Chemiosmosis links - correct answer-- respiration or photosynthesis
- membranes
- importance of ions
- importance of concentration gradients
- facilitated diffusion
- importance of movement
- active transport
- importance of proteins
- importance of enzymes
- ATP
Why is oxygen important? - correct answer-oxygen is required as the final electron acceptor
in aerobic respiration/ oxidative phosphorylation, which produces most of the ATP that
supplies energy for all vital functions
Importance of Nitrogen - correct answer-a number of nitrogen-containing biological
molecules that plants are able to make from the products of photosynthesis
Importance of maintaining water potential - correct answer-possible impacts on cells and
tissues of changes in the water potential of the blood away from the normal value.
Importance of removing CO2 from the body - correct answer-formation of excess carbonic
acid during exercise, its possible impact on blood pH and thus on proteins and their tertiary
structures.
importance of immune response - correct answer-
