7 Properties of living organisms
- reproduction
- energy processing
- growth/ development
- order not random
- regulation
- respond to environment
- evolve and adapt
-
5 kingdoms
- plantae
- animalia
- fungi
- protista
- bacteria (monera)
-
3 domains
- Bacteria
- Eukaryota
- Archaea (extreme conditions)
-
observations about living organisms
- 1. we are not all alike: individual variation
- 2. we make more offspring than can survive
- 1. unequal reproductive success
- 2. favorable trait accumulate
-
artificial selection vs. natural selection
we are making a choice of what traits we are selecting
vs
your environment is making the selection
-
Ribosomes --> Endoplasmic reticulum --> Golgi apparatus
- 1. Ribosomes- synthesize protein
- 2. Endoplasmic reticulum- secretes proteins (insulin)
- 3. Golgi Apparatus- sorts proteins and tells them where to go
-
After leaving the Golgi apparatus the proteins go to 1 of 3 places
- 1. plasma membrane- site of protein secretion
- 2. peroxisome- detoxification
- 3. lysosomes- digestion
- food or particles brought into cell
- damaged organelle inside the cell
-
What do Mitochondria do?
- Synthesize ATP
- ATP is the energy currency in the cell, the way we move energy around the cell
-
cells are held together by 3 types of junctions to make tissues
- tight junctions- zip cells together
- anchoring junctions- (Desmesomes) spot welds that hold cells together
- gap junctions- like anchoring but with holes to allow transfer between cells
-
4 types of tissues
- connective- hold portions of organs together
- nervous- specialized for cellular communication
- muscle- specialized for contraction leading to movement
- epithelial (coverings)- cover surfaces of organs inside and outside
-
All connective tissues have
- A matrix
- Fiber
- Cells (Fibroblasts)
- blasts= cells
-
connective tissue fibers include
- collagen- bone cartilage etc
- elastic- cartilage skin etc
- fibrin- blood
- reticular- special
-
Connective tissues
- 1. loose connective tissue (under skin)
- 2. fibrous connective tissue (forming a tendon)
- 3. Adipose tissue (fat tissue)
- 4. cartilage (at end of boneO
- 5. bone
- 6. blood
-
ligament (fibrous connective tissue)
hold bone to bone
-
tendon (fibrous connective tissue)
connect muscle to bone
-
Muscle tissue
- skeletal- voluntary, striated
- cardiac- involuntary, striated
- smooth muscle- involuntary, smooth (esophagus)
-
nervous tissue
- cell extensions
- Dendrites (in)
- Axons (out)
-
Digestive system
mouth -> esophagus -> liver -> stomach -> small intestine -> large intestine -> anus
-
4 main elements in human body
- carbon
- oxygen
- hydrogen
- nitrogen
-
4 types of bonds
- ionic- strong (hold ions together) Na+ + Cl- --> NaCl
- covalent- strongest (share electrons) 2H2 + O2 --> 2H2O
- hydrogen- weak (share hydrogen)
- van der Waals interactions- very weak (not really bonds)
-
macro-nutrients vs micro-nutrients
protein, lipids, carbohydrates
vitamins and minerals- need less but still essential
-
4 step process of eating
ingestion -> digestion (breaks down macromolecules into their monomers for absorption) -> absorption -> elimination
-
Breaking down polysaccharids
and DNA/RNA
polysaccharid/ disaccharide -> carbohydrate digesting enzymes -> monosaccharids
DNA/RNA ->nucleic acid digesting enzymes -> nucleotides
-
complete proteins vs incomplete
complete proteins contain all 20 amino acids
-
Epiglottis
covers trachea to keep food out of lungs
-
Peristalsis
- moves food down esophagus
- reverse= vomitting
-
chyme
acid and enzymes and partially digested food all mixed together
enzymes in the first half of the small intestine digest polymers in the acid chyme from the stomach to their monomers
2nd half absorbs nutrients (lots of surface area)
-
3 parts of small intestine
- Duodenum -> digestive portion
- Jejunum
- Illium
-
cholesterol based soap
bile produced by the liver and gall bladder
lipids are not water soluable so you need the cholesterol to break up the greasy lipid
-
pancrease
- makes enzymes (insulin) to break up carbohydrates
- your liver stores it as glycogen and your cells burn it
-
large intestine
absorbs water some nutrients and packages the feces for ejection from the rectum
when the large intestine does not reabsorb water you get diarrhea
-
respiration vs cellular respiration
breathing
where we burn macronutrients for energy (especially glucose)
-
cellular respiration (formula)
glucose (C6H12O6) - 6O2 -> 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATPs (energy)
the chemical energy in the bonds of glucose is harvested and stored in ATP for use elsewhere in the cell
-
-
Glycolysis input
- glucose (6 carbons)
- 2 NAD
- 2 ADP + 2 P
-
food to run glycolysis
- 1st choice- carbohydrates and glucose (burn right away)
- 2nd choice- fats (fats can be stored)
- 3rd choice- proteins (what your cells are made of)
-
Hierarchy of life
biosphere, ecosystem, community, population, organism, organ system, organ, tissue, cell, organelle, molecule
-
enzymes
specialized macromolecules that speed up chemical reactions in cells
-
carbohydrates monomers
monosaccharides
-
protein monomer
amino acids
-
DNA deoxyribonucleic acid RNA ribonucleic acid monomer
nucelotides
-
Endoplasmic reticulum smooth vs rough
- smooth= no ribosomes, synthesizes lipds
- rough= with ribosomes, makes more membrane (bound ribosomes make protein)
-
Golgi apparatus
- finishes, sorts, and ships cell products
- serves as a molecular warehouse and finishing factory for products manufactured by the ER
- post office
-
lysosomes
sac of digestive enzymes
-
-
heliobacter pylori
stomach ulcers
-
macromolecule polymers synthesized and degraded by
- synthesized by dehydration
- degraded by hydrolysis
-
the citric acid cycle produces
carbon dioxide, ATP, NADH
-
you get more energy from what than what
oxidative phosphorylation; glycolysis
-
protein polymers in your body come from
dehydration synthesis from amino acids in your diet
-
glycolysis converts
glucose to pyruvate
-
cellular respiration produces
ATP, carbon dioxide, and water
-
fats can or cannot enter glycolysis
they can
-
lactic acid fermentation more efficient true false
true
-
carbohydrates can be biochemically converted into fats true false
true
