  • Front
  • Back
a dynamic state of constancy
homeostasis
the level or value that the body tries to maintain
set point
any deviation from the set point is referred to as
error
processing mechanism to identify if th error is enough to require action
integrating center
when an error is detected in the body, the mechanism that couteracts the error is known as a/n
effector
______ identify the thing/signals sent by the body that an error is occuring
receptors
the range of values in homeostasis that would be considered acceptable
normal range
biomolecule polymers consist of these four categories
carbohydrates, lipids, amino acids/proteins, and nucleotides
attached to polymers to give special characteristics to a portion of a molecule
functional groups
functional group; OH, polar, acidic
hydroxyl
functional group; SH, polar, acidic

functional group; HPO4, polar, acidic
phosphate
functional group; COOH, polar, acidic

carbohydrate
three major classifications of carbohydrates are;
mono., di., and polysacharides(more than 2)
hydrogen bonds with carbon, or hydrocarbon, refers to this hydrophobic/lipoohilic polymer
lipids
the four major classifications of lipids are
triglycerides, phospholipids, eicosanoids, and steroids
three lipids bound to a glycerol molecule
triglyceride
carbon, hydrogen, and one fuctional group bond together to form __________, such as testosterone, estrogen, progesterone, and alderosterone
steroids
a wide variety of molecules, primarily constructed of amino acids (building blocks)
proteins
a covalent bond between a carboxyl from one group and an amino from another group
peptide bond
protein structures are classified as (4)
primary(order), secondary(interactions, tertiary(3D), quaternary(proteins interact to form a larger unit)
interactions causing a tertiary structure (4)
ionic bonds, van der Waal forces, hydrogen bonds, and covalent bonds
cellular adhesions that stitch membranes together, not permeable- stomach lining, bladder, etc
tight junctions
cellular adhesions that attach neighboring membranes together, via proteins that resemble velcro (3)
molecules can move between cells
desmosomes, hemidesmosomes, adherens
cellular adhesions that join neighboring membranes like tight junctions, but the proteins that link cells act as channels- materials pass between cells
gap junctions
molecular movement which requires ATP, commonly move from low concentration to high concentration, many different types
active transport
molecular movement which occurs spontaneously, requires no additional energy, variations of diffusion
passive transport
the net movement of molecules based on the amount of electrical and chemical forces in and out of a cell
electrochemical gradient
mediated transport of materials into and out of a cells membrane through carrier/channel proteins
facilitated diffusion
when all carrier proteins are moving molecules at the maximum rate
saturation
difusion of water accross a semi permeable membrane
osmosis
the number of particles in a solution
osmolarity
isoosmotic,hyperosmotic,hypoosmotic
the number of membrane-permeable particles in a solution, in addition to water
tonicity
tonicity with no net flux of water
isotonic
tonicity with net flux of water out of a cell
hypertonic
tonicity with a net flux of water into a cell
hypotonic
______ are proteins that act as catalysts in the body, lowering the activation energy required for metabolism
enzymes
an enzyme will bind to only one type of molecule. This is known as
specificity
a reaction which breaks down a large molecule into two or more smaller molecules
catabolic
a reaction that builds up smaller molecules into one larger molecule
anabolic
the breakdown of glucose (6C) into two pyruvate (3C) molecules, requires some ATP
glycolysis
Step 1 of glycolysis, uses one ATP to attach a P group to glucose
hexokinase
step 3 of glycolysis, uses one ATP to attach a P group to Fructose 6 P
phosphofructokinase
step 6 of glycolysis, removes H from G3P and creates one NADH
glyceraldehide 3 phosphate dehydrogenase
step 7 of glycolysis, removes P from biphosphate 3 glucose group, transfers P to make one ATP
phosphoglycerate kinase
step 10 of glycolysis, removes P group from phosphoenolpyruvate(PEP), transfers to make make ATP
pyruvate kinase
the net result of glycolysis is two ____ used in steps 1 and 3, 2 ____ are produced in step 6, and 4 ____ are produced in steps 7 and 10
ATP, NADH, ATP
the linking step between glycolysis and krebs converts _____ to _____, and produces _____ and ___
pyruvate, acetyl CoA, NADH, CO2
step 1 of Krebs cycle, combines acetyl CoA and oxaloacetate, produces citrate/citric acid(6C)
citrate synthase
step 3 of Krebs cycle, removes H, produces NADH and CO2
isocitrate dehydrogenase
step 4 of Krebs cycle, removes H from alpha ketogluterate, transfers to NADH
alpha ketogluterate dehydrogenase
step 6 of Krebs cycle, removes H from succinate, transfers it to FADH-->FADH2
succinate dehydrogenase
step 8 of Krebs cycle, removes H from malate, transfers to NAD-->NADH, back to beginning of cycle
