where does the light dependent reaction occur and where does the Calvin Cycle occur |
Light Dependent reaction occurs in the Thylakoids The Calvin Cycle occurs in the Stroma |
|
What are the steps to the Light Dependent Reaction |
1. photon strikes photosystem 2 and excites the pigments. Energy is transferred to chlorophyll a P680 which drives the reaction of water splitting 2. PQ takes the electron from the Primary Electron Acceptor and accepts a proton from the stroma to become neutral 3. PC will steal the electron from PQ, the proton will be "dropped" into the lumen 4. Photon strikes Photosystem 1 and excites the pigments. Energy is transferred to chlorophyll a P700. P700 gets electron from PC after its electron was stolen by PEA 5. Ferredoxin steals the electron from PEA 6. NADP+ rectase will take the electron from Ferrodoxin and give it to NADP+ -> NADPH+ steps 1-5 happen twice 7. Protons diffuse through ATP synthase to make ATP |
|
What are the steps to cyclic phosphorylation |
1. FD will donate the electron to PQ and passes it to PC. H+ is pumped through the lumen 2. PC will pass electron to Photosystem 1 |
|
what is important about cyclic phosphorylation |
you dont need water you dont need photosystem 2 you make ATP you dont make NADPH |
|
from where to where are protons diffused via ATP synthase
|
photosynthesis Lumen to stroma cellrespiration intermembrane to matrix |
|
what is the purpose of the calvin cycle |
to fix CO2 into C6H12O6 in 3 stages |
|
where does the calcin cycle occur |
the stroma |
|
what are the steps to the calvin cycle |
1. fix CO2 CO2 + RuBP -> 6PGA using the enzyme rubisco 2. add energy and reduce PGA into G3P ATP exer ADP NADPH oxid NADP PGA Reduce 1,3 BPGA 1,3 BPGA red G3P 3. regenerate RuBP 5 G3P gain energy from ATP to turn into 3 RuBP |
|
what is homostasis |
it is the maintence of the internal conditions of the body |
|
what does the endocrine system do |
influences almost every organ, cell, and function in the body |
|
what are hormones |
they are chemical messengers that are released from a cell to have an effect on another target cell |
|
what is the process of thermoregulation |
Stimulus is feeling hot thermostat in hypothalamus activates cooling mechanism skin blood vessels dilate to release heat sweat glands activate (cooling body) body temperature decrease thermostat shuts off cooling mechanisms Stimulus is feeling cold thermostat in hypothalamus activates warming mechanisms skin blood vessels constrict reducing heat lose skeletal muscles activate to shiver blood temperature increases Thermostat shuts off warming mechanism |
|
what is a general homostasis response |
1. stimulus produces change in variable (imbalance) 2. change detected by receptor 3. input info sent along afferent pathway to control center 4. output info sent along efferent pathway to effector 5. response of effector feeds back to influence magnitude of stimulus and returns variable to homeostasis |
|
what types of horomes are there |
steroid hormones and Peptide hormones |
|
what are steroid hormones |
ex. cortisol they all contain cholesterol they are all lipid soluble molecules they enter the cell via phospholipid bilayer these hormones go into the cell directly into the nucleus |
|
what are peptide hormones |
they are known as protein hormones they bind to receptors and stay outside the cell the receptor activates and causes a chain reaction |
|
what are exocrine glands |
they are gland that release hormones into ducts external part or cavity ex. salivary gland |
|
what is an endocrine gland |
it is a gland that releases hormones directly into vascular system they affect target cells that are nearby |
|
what are some examples of endocrine glands |
pineal, hypothalamus, pituitary, thyroid, parathyroid, adrenals, pancreas, overies and testes |
|
what does the pineal gland do |
percieves light/external clock |
|
what does the pituitary gland do |
it is the master gland |
|
what does the hypothalamus do |
it secreates hormones that stimulate synthesis/secreation of hormones in pituitary |
|
characteristics of the pituitary |
anterior pituitary - front posterior pituitary - back The Hypothalamus makes Posterior pituitary Hormones Anterior pituitary makes/stores its own hormones Posterior pituitary only has oxytocin and vasopressin (ADH) |
|
what does oxytocin do |
it controls muscle contractions it is an example of positive feedback - release more it is an example of negative feedback - release less |
|
what are endorphins and enkephalins |
they are natural pain killers |
|
what are endorphines |
they resemble opiates they are responsible for runners high |
|
what are enkephalin |
they are responsible for the sense of wellbeing |
|
what hormones does the thyroid gland make and what do they do |
thyroxine - controls cellular metabolism and calcitonin - calcium regulation |
|
what is the process that thyroxine undergoes |
receptor - cold exposure Hypothalamus releases TRH Anterior Pituitary releases TSH Thyroid Thyroxine T3 is active, which T4 is inactive T4 will activate to become T3 which speeds up metabolism rates T4 means 4 iodine |
|
what is the parathryoid glands |
they are four glands in the thyroid that are hormone producers |
|
what does PTH do and what creates it |
the parathyroid creates it it causes calcium levels to increase and phosphate levels to decrease |
|
how does calcium get regulated in the body |
too much Ca2+ thyroid releases calcitonin hormone Ca2+ deposits into bones reduces Ca2+ uptake in intestines reduced Ca2+ uptake in kidneys not enough Ca2+ thyroid releases parathyroid hormone increases the uptake of Ca2+ in kidneys increases the uptake of Ca2+ in intestines simulates Ca2+ release from bones |
|
how is sugar regulated in the body |
high levels of glucose -beta cells of pancreas will stimulate and release insulin -body cells take in more glucose, liver take up more glucose and stores it as glycogen -insulin diminishes Low levels of glucose -Alpha cells in the pancreas release glycagon -the liver breaks down glycogen into glucose glucagon diminishes |
|
what is type 1 diabetes |
it is the lack of insulin produced also known as diabetes mellitus |
|
what is type 2 diabetes |
it is when the glucose isnt entering the cells also known as diabetes mellitus |
|
what is diabetes insipidus |
it is when you pee all the time (nothing to do with insultin) also known as tasteless urine lacking ADH |
|
what is diabetes mellitus |
it is known as sweet urine hence their is glucose found in the urine |
|
what are the adrenal glands known for making |
the hormone cortisol - stress aldosterone - sodium levels testosterone |
|
what is the hormone that is responsible for creating male gentalia |
anti-mullerian |
|
what three parts make up the kidneys |
the cortex - the medulla the renal pelvis |
|
what are the different parts of the nephron |
1. Glomerulus 9not a part of the nephron) 2. Bowmen's capsule 3. proximal tubule 4.loop of Henle 5. distal tubule 6. collecting duct
|
|
what processes occur in the nephron |
Filtration fluids from blood move into the bowmen's capsule "filtrate" is the result in the bowmen's capsule Reabsorption Transfer of essential solutes and H2O from filtrate in nephron back into blood capillaries Secretion moving materials from blood back into nephron |
|
what is the difference between urea, ammonia and uric acid |
ammonia is extremely toxic and is secreted in large amounts urea is less toxic. therefore it requires less water. uric acid needs very little water but more energy is required to produce it |
