BSC 1010 Final Exam Study Guide with Complete Solutions ATP - Correct Answer Adenosine triphosphate. The energy currency of the cell.Endomembrane System - Correct Answer A network of membranes inside and around a eukaryotic cell, related either through direct physical contact or by the transfer of membranous vesicles.oxidation - Correct Answer Loss of electrons reduction - Correct Answer Any process in which electrons are added to an atom or ion (as by removing oxygen or adding hydrogen) exergonic - Correct Answer A reaction that results in the release of free energy endergonic - Correct Answer A chemical reaction that requires the input of energy in order to proceed.chemiosmotic phosphorylation - Correct Answer protons move down their gradient through ATP synthase channels back into the matrix, and ADP is phosphorylated to ATP domain eukarya - Correct Answer Kingdom (Protists, Fungi, Plantae, Animalia) domain protista - Correct Answer eukaryotes, unicellular, vary in size, usully microscopic domain bacteria - Correct Answer All single celled prokaryotic valence - Correct Answer The electrons in the outermost shell (main energy level) of an atom; these are the electrons involved in forming bonds.atomic mass - Correct Answer The average mass of all the isotopes of an element atomic weight - Correct Answer Mass of a single atom/= to the # of protons plus the # of neutrons in the nucleus (p+n) 1 / 2
properties of water - Correct Answer Adhesive, Cohesive, Retains Heat, surface tension, good solvent pH scale - Correct Answer measurement system used to indicate the concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) in solution; ranges from 0 to 14 isotope - Correct Answer Atoms of the same element that have different numbers of neutrons covalent bonds - Correct Answer Bonds that require SHARING of electrons electronegativity - Correct Answer Atom's ability to attract and hold electrons.polar covalent bonds - Correct Answer Bonds in which electrons are not shared equally between atoms of different elements in a compound ionic bonds - Correct Answer Bonds that require DONATING and ACCEPTING electron hydrogen bonds - Correct Answer Very weak bonds; occurs when a hydrogen atom in one molecule is attracted to the electrostatic atom in another molecule carbohydrate - Correct Answer Broken down to simple sugars, building block of monosaccharides.protein - Correct Answer A three dimensional polymer made of monomers of amino acids.Structure is held together by covalent bonds such as: peptide bonds, which are made during the process of protein biosynthesis or translation.lipids - Correct Answer Energy-rich organic compounds, such as fats, oils, and waxes, that are made of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Relatively insoluble in water. Only soluble in ether because it is non polar.
2 kinds:
triglycerides: glycerol backbone, bonded to 3 fatty acids.
phospholipids: contain glycerol, fatty acids, phosphoric acids. Has a low molecular weight .Ex: Alcohol
