What process is photosynthesis
endergonic
Glycolysis formula
C6H12O6 + 2 ATP (start up energy) → 2 pyruvic acid (a 3 C compound) + 4 ATP (a gain of 2 ATP)
what are spindle fibers made of
microtubules
amino acid structure
a carboxyl group, amine group, and R group
Photosynthesis formula
6CO2 + 6H2O + sunlight ---> C6 H12 O6 + 6O2
Citric acid cycle formula
2 Acetyl CoA = 4 CO2 + 6 NADH + 2 FADH2 + 2 ATP
Electron Transport chain formula
NADH + O2 + ADP + PO4 --> NAD + H2O + ATP
Calvin cycle formula
CO2 + ATP + NADPH --> C6H12O6 + ADP +NADP
first law of thermodynamics
Energy cannot be created or destroyed
potential energy
stored energy
kinetic energy
energy of motion
Three components of ATP
adenine, ribose, 3 phosphates
, cytoskeletal system
microtubules, microfilaments, intermediate filaments
Cholesterol
helps maintain flexibility of membrane
Can steroids pass through the cell membrane?
yes, because they are lipids and uncharged
small uncharged polar molecules
move slowly across the membrane
Diffusion
Movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration, does
not require energy
facilitated diffusion
Needs help of proteins, does not require energy
osmosis
Diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane
What tonicity do plant cells prefer?
hypotonic
Aquaporins
water channel proteins
active transport
the movement of materials through a cell membrane using energy
types of active transport
Endocytosis (phagocytosis and pinocytosis)
Exocytosis, and Protein Pumps - Lower Concentration to Higher Concentration
cotransport
occurs when active transport of a solute indirectly drives transport of other substances
Endocytosis
process by which a cell takes material into the cell by infolding of the cell membrane
Exocytosis
