PGAL ( phosphoglyceraldehyde)

chemical that can be used to make other organic compounds like sugar (glucose)

ATP (adenosine triphosphate)

usble energy that is stored in the cell (potential energy) it stores energy between phosphate groups, when these bonds break, ATP becomes ADP and energy is released

three parts of ATP

1. Adenine base


2. 5-carbon sugar


3. three phosphate groups


Basic energy source of all cells, used to store and release energy

ATP

ADP( Adenosine diphosphate) How it stores/released energy, different from ATP how?

has two phosphate groups instead of the 3 in ATP.


stores energy by adding a phosphate group to make ATP (ADP>ATP)


Releases energy by breaking bonds between 2nd and 3rd phosphate groups


Two types of cellular respiration

1. anaerobic respiration (without oxygen, breaks down pyruvic acid)


2. Aerobic respiration (with oxygen)

Fermentation

follows glycolysis when oxygen isnt present, it converts NADH to NAD+, continuing glycolysis

two types of Fermentation,

1. Lactic Acid Fermentation (animal cells)


2. alcoholic Fermentation (plant cells)


Lactic Acid Fermentation

in animal cells, converts pyruvic acid to lactic acids.


Pyruvic Acid + NADH = Lactic Acid + NAD+


Alcoholic Fermentation

converts pyruvic acid into Ethyl alcohol,in the absence of oxygen


Pyruvic acid + NADH = Alcohol + CO2 +NADH+



ex. (In bread, yeast runs out of oxygen, gives of CO2 forming air spaces)

Krebs Cycle (citric acid cycle) (cellular respiration)

C6H12O6+O2 = CO2 + H2O + energy

Chemiosmosis

occurs in choroplasts, the mitochondria, and aerobic bacteria. The electron transport utilizes the energy of photosynthesis to pump hydrogen ions across a membrane resulting in a protein concentration gradient that can make ATP.

Nucleic Acids

complex organic molecules compose d of carbon ,oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen and phosphorus.


*are polymers if individual monomers, nucleotides

3 parts of nucleotides

1. 5 carbon sugar


2. phosphate base


3. nitrogenous base

two types of nucleic acids

1. deoxyribonucleic acids (DNA)
2. Ribonucleic Acid (RNA)


both store an transmit information

genes

sequence of DNA that codes for a protein, determines a trait


They make up chromosomes


traits

specific characteristics that vary from one individual to another,( eye, hair colour)

chromosomes

structure in the nucleus that contains genetic information, passed down by generations.


Genes make up these chromosoems

Genetic code

contains information needed by the cells to function properly

histone

protein molecule around which DNA is tightly coiled in the chromatin. Chromatin makes proteins

DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid)

genetic material in all organisms, controls what proteins are made. Made up of two strings of nucleotides of which Contains 4 nitrogenous bases, adenine ,cytosine, guanine, thymine

double helix

dicovered by watson and crick, two strands of nucleotides that twist around a central axis to form a spiral structure

purines

adenine, guanine, have two rings of carbon

pyridines

cytosine and thymine, one ring of carbon

repilcation

duplication of dna, takes place before cell division, produces two complementary strands


protein bonds to the origin, then dna enyzmes unzip the dna, breaking the hydrogen bonds, then the unpaired strands look for complemtnary bases. Old and new strands now bond together with hydrogen


takes place in nucleus

transcription

dna makes rna


RNA polymerase binds to dna causing the strands to unzip. then dna and rna bases bond by hydrogen. All three types of RNA are transcribed in the nucleus. Rna leaves the nucleus, goes to the cytoplasm to be part of protein synthesis.

translation

protein molecules are assembled from information encoded within mRNA. The decording of mRNA into a polypeptide chain takes place in ribosomes

three differences between DNA and RNA

DNA uses thymine, RNA uses uracil. DNA double stranded, RNA is single stranded. DNA uses the sugar deoxyribose instead of ribose in RNA.

Three types of RNA

1. Messanger RNA (mRNA)


2. Transfer RNA (tRNA)


3. Ribosmal RNA (rRNA)

Messanger RNA (mRNA) function

transmits information from DNA to use during protein synthesis


#serves as template for assembling amino acids during protein synthesis

Transfer RNA (tRNA)

transfers messages by bonding to only one specific amino acid.

Ribosmal RNA (rRNA)

major constituate in the ribosome that helps the bonding of the amino acids to form specific proteins.

DNA polymerase

enzymes that create DNA molecules by assembling nucleotides, are essential to DNA replication and work in pairs to create two identical DNA strands from a single original DNA molecule.

RNA polymerase

enzyme that produces transfer RNA

codon

specific group of three bases of messanger RNA

anticodon

specific group of bases of transfer RNA

introns

nucleotides not involved in coding of proteins

exons

nucleotides involved in coding of proteins

protein synthesis

Protein synthesis is the assembly of proteins


formation of proteins using information codes on RNA and carried out by DNA. (RNA - DNA -PROTEINS)



The more complex the organism, the more proteins


each protein molecule is made of polypeptides

Polypeptide, peptide bond, peptide

polypeptides are peptides linked together by a peptide bond. Peptides are formed by bonding amino acids. Amino acids make up proteins

amino acids

20 different amino acids, made up of proteins

Mutation

mutations are changes in the genetic matierial

Two types and differences of Mutations

1. Gene mutations- changes in genes



2. chromosome mutations - changes in chromosomes

Point Mutation

changes in one or a few more nucleotides occuring at a single point in the DNA sequence.

3 Point mutations

Substitution- one nitrogen base is changed to another


Insertion - one base is inserted


Deletion - one base removed

Frameshift Mutations

mutations that shifts the reading frame of the genetic code by inserting or deleting a nucleotide

Chromosome mutation

involves changes in the number or structure of chromosomes, may change the locations of genes on chromosomes or number of copies of some genes

Four types of chromosomal mutations

1. Deleting - loses part of a chromosome


2. Duplication - produces extra copies of chromosome parts


3. Inversion - reverses the direction of parts of the chromosome


4. Translocation- part of the chromosome breaks off and attaches to another different chromosome

Polyploidy

condition in which an organism has an extra set of chromosomes


#bad in animals


#good in plants
