Aerobic respiration

Enzyme controlled process which requires oxygen to produce energy from the breakdown of glucose


Glucose +oxygen >co2 +water +atp

Atp

Is the energy carrier molecule in all living cells

Chloroplast

Organelles found in plant cells which is the site of photosynthesis

Denature

To alter the shape of a protein (enzyme) by breaking the band's holding it together. This renders it unable to carry out it's function

Endoplasmic reticulum

Network of membranes involved in processing proteins (rough er) and lipids (smooth er)

Golgi body

Network of folded flattened membrane found in the cytoplasm of cells which are involved in packaging protein molecules

Lysosome

Sack like organelles which contains digestive enzymes they are involved with the digestion of cellular invaders and waste molecules.

Mitochondria

Organelles found in the cells which is the site of respiration (aerobic )

Ribosome

Small organelles found in the cell on roughER which is the site of protein synthesis

Photosynthesis

Enzyme controlled process occurring in plants that use energy from sunlight to convert c02 +h2o > glucose

In the cell cycle what happens during the m phase

Mitosis the replicated chromosomes separate

What happens during phase g1 during the cell cycle

Cell contents grow

What happens during s in the cell

DNA replication

What happens during phase g2 of the cell cycle

Checking for mutations

Photosynthesis formula

H2o + CO2 >C6H12O2 +O2 +atp

What is the purpose of photosynthesis

To create glucose which is converted into energy needed to carry out life process

What is a thylakoid

Are flattened disks containing chlorophyll located in the chloroplasts

What is a grana

A stack of thylokoids

How does chloroplasts carry out it's function effectively

It is rod shaped which decreases the distance for diffusion thus increasing the rate of reaction


Thylakoids are thin and flat in stacks to increase surface area ...


Double membrane allows compartmentalisation which means chloroplast can be in optimum conditions for enzymes to work to ^ rate of photosynthesis


What is compartmentalisation

Provides multiple compartments therefore different environmental conditions such as ph can occur so enzymes can work in optimum conditions the increase the rate of reaction

What is this? Label

Chloroplast

Calvin cycle

Carbon dioxide and hydroden from the water are bonded together this process is light independent this is also known as the dark cycle

Primary structure

a sequence of amino acid bonded by poly peptides

Secondary structure

Can be alpha helix or beta sheet



Alpha is in a helical path that is held in place by hydrogen bonds



Beta shets strands of protein adjacent to one another a d are held in place by hydrogen bonds between peptide backbones


Tertiary structure

Structure starts folding and is held together by salt bridges and bonds

What is mrna and what does it do

rna


Messenger rna Because DNA can not exit the nucleus due to its size therefore mrna


Because DNA can not exit the nucleus due to its size therefore mrna
