Reaction that transfers electrons from one reactant to another by oxidation and reduction.
|
Redox (oxidation-reduction) reaction
|
|
Substance loses electrons-positive
|
Oxidized
|
|
Substance gains electrons-negative
|
Reduction (remember, reduction with cooking- means the food gets thicker- grows-gains-)
|
|
Splitting of sugar
|
Glycolysis
|
|
Breaks down glucose into pyruvite
|
Glycolysis
|
|
Process of splitting sugar that occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell
|
Glycolisis
|
|
2 major phases of Glycolysis
|
1. Energy investment phase
2. Energy payoff phase |
|
Three Cell Signaling Processes
|
1. Reception 2. Transduction 3. Response
|
|
Signal Molecule is also called the
|
Ligand
|
|
Transduction:
|
Relays molecules in signal transduction pathways
|
|
Two intracellular receptor proteins (cell signaling)
|
1. Intracellular receptors
2. receptors in the plasma membrane |
|
Response Process also leads to
|
Regulation of genes
|
|
Stages of Cellular respiration
|
1. Glycolysis
2. Citric Acid Cycle 3. Oxidative Phosphorylation |
|
Small, non protein, water soluble, molecules or ions.
|
Second Messengers
|
|
CyclicAMP is made from________ and is an example of a______ __________
|
ATP, Second Messenger
|
|
Second Messengers are:
|
Molecules or ions that relay signals received at receptors on the cell surface (such as the arrival of protein hormones, growth factors, etc.)
|
|
Examples of Second messengers:
|
CyclicAMP, Inosital Triphosphates
|
|
First messenger is:
|
Signal Molecule (Ligand)
|
|
Chemiosmosis:
|
APT Synthase "Machine". Protons pass through rod, rod turns knob, and combines with P to produce ATP.
|
|
Pyruvate is converted to ethanol, in two steps. One of which releases Co2, during what process?
|
Alcohol Fermentation
|
|
Pyruvate is reduced directly to NADH to form lactate as a waste product
|
Lactic Acid Fermentation
|
|
Not an efficient way to break down glucose
|
Alchohol fermentation
|
|
Solar energy into chemical energy is
|
Photosynthesis
|
|
the green pigment in a plant is
|
chlorophyll
|
|
C02 enters and O2 exits the leaf through microscopic pores called
|
stomata
|
|
Light energy absorbed by chlorophyll drives the synthesis of organic molecules in the
|
chloroplasts
|
|
Chlorophyll is the green pigment in
|
chloroplasts
|

|
|
each disk in the granum is
|
thylakoid
