Potential Energy |
Stored Energy |
|
Kinetic Energy |
Energy of motion |
|
Energy |
Ability to do work |
|
First law of thermodynamics |
Energy cannot be created or destroyed but can be converted from one form to another |
|
Second law of thermodynamics |
You cannot convert energy from one form to another without a "loss" of energy in another form...not really lost |
|
Entropy |
Measure of disorder or randomness...living things constantly reduce entropy ⬆️entropy=⬆️disorder |
|
Metabolism |
Sum of all chemical reactions in a cell...reactants->products |
|
Reactants |
Causes reaction to occur |
|
Products |
Results of the reaction |
|
Free energy |
Energy available after accounting for entropy |
|
Exergonic reactions |
Energy is released from the reaction I.e. degradation or hydrolysis |
|
Endergonic reaction |
Uses energy for reaction to occur I.e. synthesis or dehydration |
|
ATP |
Adenosine triphosphate...the only form of energy a cell can use....found in the phosphate bonds |
|
Coupled reactions |
When energy released from one chem rx is used for another chemical rx |
|
Functions of ATP |
Chemical work...synthesis Transport work...active Transport Mechanical work...movement |
|
Enzymes |
Lower energy of activation. Composed of proteins. Function as a catalyst. |
|
Factors of enzymatic speed |
Temperature Concentration Substrate pH |
|
Denature |
Permanently changing a proteins shape |
|
Oxidation |
Losing hydrogen Photosynthesis: H2O -> O2 Cell. Resp.: C6H12O6 -> 6CO2 |
|
Reduction |
Gaining hydrogen Photosynthesis: CO2 -> C6H12O6 Cell. Resp.: 6O2 -> 6H2O |
|
Electron Transport System |
Move an electron from photosystem II to photosystem I |
|
Chemiosmosis |
Movement of ions across a semipermiable membrane against the concentration gradient...produces ATP by pushing Hydrogen out |
|
Where in a leaf does photosynthesis occur? |
Chloroplast |
|
Stromata |
Allows O2, CO2, and H2O to pass through |
|
Chloroplasts |
Place that photosynthesis occurs |
|
Mesophyll |
Contains the chloroplast |
|
Composition of chloroplasts |
Double layer membrane filled with stoma and contains grana which is made of thylakoid membrane |
|
Light dependent rx |
Produces ATP and NADPH Occurs in grana |
|
Light independent rx |
Creates G3P to create carbohydrates Occurs in stroma |
|
Photsystem II |
Rips water apart and produces ATP |
|
Photosystem I |
Produce high energy electron and NADPH |
|
Calvin Cycle |
Doesn't require light. Carbon fixation, carbon reduction, generation of RuBP |
|
Carbon fixation |
CO2 + RuBP becomes 6 C molecule and is broken into 2 3PG |
|
Carbon reduction |
2 3PG gets ATP AND NADPH added to it to make 2 G3P |
|
Regeneration RuBP |
5 carbon sugar used to start the cycle over again |
|
Cellular Respiration parts |
Glycolysis, transition rx, citric acid cycle, electron transport. |
|
Glycolysis |
Occurs in cytoplasm. C6H12O6+2ATP=2G3P 2G3P-2NADH-4ATP=2 pyruvate |
|
Transition rx |
Occurs in matrix 2 times Piruvate+ATP-CO2-NADH=2 acetyl CoA |
|
Citric Acid Cycle |
Takes acetyl CoA and breaks it into 2 separate carbons |
|
Electron transport |
Disposes O2 by being the last electron acceptor |
|
Cell cycle |
G1, s, g2, cell division |
|
G1 |
Protein synthesis |
|
S |
DNA synthesis |
|
G2 |
Protein synthesis |
|
M |
Nuclear division |
|
Checkpoints |
Occurs to make sure everything is correct |
|
Apoptosis |
Occurs when there is an error and the cell kills itself |
|
Chromosomes |
Long DNA chains |
|
Chromatin |
DNA and histone protein |
|
Diploid number |
Number of chromosomes |
|
Chromatid |
One half of a chromosome a duplicate making it sister chromatid |
|
Centromere |
Holds the two sister chromatids together |
|
Centriole |
Produces microtubules that pull halves of the chromosomes apart...located at poles of the cell |
|
Mitosis phases |
Prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telephase |
|
Prophase |
Forms chromosomes, rips apart cell membrane and creates centrioles |
|
Metaphase |
Lines up chromosomes and centriole produce spindle fibers |
|
Anaphase |
Chromosomes are pulled apart and to opposite poles |
|
Telephase |
Membrane is formed around chromatids |
|
Cytokinesis |
Cleavage furrow starts to form and one cell becomes two identical cells |
