Questions and Mark scheme
Version: Final 1.1
,Cholesterol - ✔✔steroid found in animal fats as well as in most body tissues; made by the liver
polar covalent - ✔✔nonsymmetrical molecules that contain electrically unbalanced atoms
Peptide - ✔✔bond joining the amine group of 1 amino acid to the acid carboxyl group of a second amino acid with the
loss of a water molecule
nonpolar covalent - ✔✔electrically balanced molecules
Transcription - ✔✔1 of 2 major steps on the transfer of genetic code information from a DNA base sequence to the
complementary base sequence of an mRNA molecule
Translation - ✔✔one of the 2 major steps in the transfer of genetic code information, in which the info carried by mRNA
is decoded & used to assemble polypeptides
Diffusion - ✔✔spreading of particles in a gas or solution with a movement toward uniform distribution of particles;
driven by kinetic energy
Genetic code - ✔✔refers to the rules by which the base sequence of a DNA gene is translated into protein structures
(amino acid sequences)
Mitosis - ✔✔process during which the chromosomes are redistributed on 2 daughter nuclei; nuclear division; consists of
prophase, metaphase, anaphase, & telophase
Cytosol - ✔✔viscous, semitransparent fluid substance of cytoplasm in which other elements are suspended
osmosis (osmotic pressure) - ✔✔diffusion of a solvent through a membrane from a dilute solution into a more
concentrated one
(DNA) replication - ✔✔process that occurs before cell division; ensures that all daughter cells have identical genes
Chromatid - ✔✔structures in the nucleus that carry the hereditary factors (genes)
, Chromosome - ✔✔barlike bodies of tightly coiled chromatin; visible during cell division
Cytoplasm - ✔✔the cellular material surrounding the nucleus & enclosed by the plasma membrane
Cytokinesis - ✔✔the division of cytoplasm that occurs after the cell nucleus has divided
Plasma membrane - ✔✔membrane, composed of phospholipids, cholesterol, & proteins, that encloses cell contents;
outer limiting cell membrane
Fluid mosaic model - ✔✔depiction of the structure of the membranes of a cell as phospholipid bilayers in which proteins
are disperesed
Anatomy - ✔✔study of the structure of living organisms
positive feedback - ✔✔feedback that tends to cause the level of a variable to change in the same direction as an initial
change
Anabolism - ✔✔energy-requiring building phase of metabolism in which simpler substances are combined to form more
complex substances
Physiology - ✔✔study of the function of living organisms
Biochemistry - ✔✔study of the chemical composition and reactions of living matter
negative feedback - ✔✔the most common homeostatic control mechanism; net effect is that the output of the system
shuts off the original stimulus or reduces its intensity
Catabolism - ✔✔process in which living cells break down substances into simpler substances
Histology - ✔✔branch of anatomy dealing with the microscopic structure of tissues
Homeostasis - ✔✔a state of body equilibrium or stable internal environment of the body
