Biology 1 Honors EOC Latest Update

cell wall? - ANSWER-(plant) protects the cell

bacterial cells - ANSWER-1) smaller and simpler than plant and animal cells
2) uni-cellular
3) no nucleus (prokaryotic)

what organelles do bacterial cells have? - ANSWER-- single looped DNA, cell wall,
cell membrane, cytoplasm, and ribosomes
- some have a capsule (for protection)

what do bacterial have that other cells don't? - ANSWER-- cilia (hair like structures to
hold onto host cells)
- flagella (whip like structure for movement)

what is the cell membrane made of? - ANSWER-phospholipids

what is the phospholipid bilayer? - ANSWER-2 layers of phospholipids that make up
the cell membrane

what is special about the cell membrane? - ANSWER-it is fluid, which means that is
constantly moving and flowing over the cell and it is selectively permiable, which
means it allows small compounds, not large ones to flow right through

What are the two different ways materials are transported across the membrane? -
ANSWER-passive transport and active transport

what is diffusion? - ANSWER-(passive transport) compounds move from an area of
high concentration to an area of low concentration

what is osmosis? - ANSWER-(passive transport) diffusion of water

what is active transport? - ANSWER-requires energy

what is passive transport? - ANSWER-doesn't require energy

what is endocytosis? - ANSWER-(in) large compounds are brought into the cell

what is exocytosis? - ANSWER-(out) large compounds are exported out of the cell

what is the sodium-potassium pump (k+/na+ pump)? - ANSWER-the process of
moving sodium and potassium across the cell membrane involving the hydrolysis of
ATP

what is a hypotonic solution? - ANSWER-solution that causes water to move into the
cell so the cell swells up

, what is a hypertonic solution? - ANSWER-solution that causes water to move out of
the cell so the cell shrivels up

what is an isotonic solution? - ANSWER-solution that causes no net movement of
water into or out of the cell

what is photosynthesis? - ANSWER-process by which organisms use energy from
sunlight to make their own food (glucose- simple sugar)

where does photosynthesis occur? - ANSWER-chloroplasts (chlorophyll- green
pigment) of plant cells and some bacteria

Steps of Photosynthesis? - ANSWER-1) Light Reaction- chlorophyll in the
chloroplasts absorbs sunlight, ATP is made, H2O splits
2) Dark Reaction- the energy from the sunlight is used to make glucose (calvin cycle-
carbon fixation- CO2 -> C6H12O6)
-Light energy is completely changed into chemical energy (glucose)

What is the chemical equation for photosynthesis? - ANSWER-6CO2 + 6H2O + light
energy -> C6H12O6 + O2

what is cellular respiration? - ANSWER-process that breaks down glucose in order to
make energy for an organism

where does cellular respiration occur? - ANSWER-the mitochondria

what are the two types of respiration? - ANSWER--aerobic (requires oxygen to
occur, animals + plants)
-anaerobic (doesn't require oxygen to occur) (bacteria + yeast)

What is the process of aerobic respiration? - ANSWER-Step 1) Glycolosis: glucose
is cut in half (cellular respiration)- in cytoplasm, produces pyruvate
Step 2) Citric Acid Cycle/Kreb's Cycle: glucose halves get electrons chopped off of
them - 2FADH, 2ATP, 6NADH
Step 3) Electron Transport Chain: electrons combine with oxygen and are used to
make a lot of ATP (36)
- Aerobic respiration is the opposite of photosynthesis

what is the chemical equation for respiration? - ANSWER-C6H12O6 + O2 -> 6CO2 +
6H2O + ATP energy (opp. of photosynthesis)

What is anaerobic respiration? - ANSWER--aka fermentation
two types:
-lactate fermentation in muscle cells
-alcoholic fermentation in yeast produces ethanol
makes less ATP than aerobic respiration (most efficient)

what are chromosomes? - ANSWER--DNA strands located in the nucleus that
contain the directions on how to keep an organism alive
