What is the equation for cell respiration?

C6H12O6 + 602 ------> CO2 + H20 + (chemical energy)

What is the equation for photosynthesis?

Name the four types of biomolecules

Carbohydrate, protein, lipid, and nucleic acid

Protects cell

Cell Wall (plant cell)

fatty acid and glycerol

What are the four bases

thymine, adenine, cytosine, and guanine

diploid

two sets of chromosomes

Describe the step by step process of protein synthesis

1. Copy of one side of DNA strand is made, also called transcribing (mRNA is made) 2. mRNA moves to cytoplasm and then ribosome 3. mRNA goes through ribosome 3 bases at a time, also called transcription (1 codon at a time) 4. Amino acids are produced when a codon unites 5. You need at least 150 bases to make a protein

In a cross between two individuals that are heterozygous for a simple Mendelian trait, what fraction of the offspring should you expect to be heterozygous?

1/2

The genotypic ratio of the offspring resulting from a cross between two heterozygous parents is:

1:2:1 (homozygous dominant, heterozygous, homozygous recessive)

What is the ratio of hydrogen to oxygen atoms present in all carbohydrates?

2:1

Compare the mother and daughter cells of meiosis

4 daughter cells, each has only one set of chromosomes (haploid)

Draw and label a cell membrane diagram

:) :)

Go through heredity worksheet and make sure you understand how to do each problem

:) :)

Unsaturated fatty acid

A fatty acid possessing one or more double bonds between the carbons in the hydrocarbon tail. Such bonding reduces the number of hydrogen atoms attached to the carbon skeleton.

Saturated fatty acid

A fatty acid with a carbon chain full of hydrogen atoms, meaning no carbon-carbon double bonds; usually from animal sources and solid at room temperature.

Molecule

A group of atoms held together by covalent bonds

Biomolecule

A group of atoms held together by ionic bonds (unique to living things)

Monosaccharide

A simple sugar with no bonds, the building block of carbohydrates (examples fructose, glucose, ribose)

Disaccharide

A sugar of two monosaccharides, double sugar (examples sucrose lactose, maltose)

What is the chemical equation of dehydration synthesis for a triglyceride?

Amino acid + amino acid + amino acid ---> tripeptide +H20

What is general equation of dehydration synthesis?

Microtubules are produced here, make spindle fibers and such in animal cell

Centrosome

Contains chlorophyll to make green and also is where photosynthesis occurs

Chloroplast (plant cell)

Collective term for cytosol and organelles in it

Collective term for cytosol and organelles in itCytoplasm

What is the purpose of photosynthesis?

Convert light energy to chemical energy

maintains cell shape (microtubules, action filaments, intermediate fibers

soup of the cell, lots of proteins in it

Cytosol

List two examples of nucleic acid

DNA and RNA

What is the difference between DNA and RNA

DNA holds genetic information and RNA sends protein information from the nucleus to the ribosome

Smooth endoplasmic reticulum

Other than transport, list the two main functions of lipids in the body and name one corresponding lipid or type of lipid for each function listed

Store energy (triglycerides), provide insulation (triglycerides), and provide structure (phospholipids)

How is prophase 1 of meiosis different from prophase in mitosis?

The chromosomes cross over and trade genes

What is the purpose of cell respiration?

To release energy from glucose (ATPs)
