​

Ch. 2 - Macromolecules

Structure & Function of Macromolecules

Enzymes: made from proteins!

• pH level and temp. of the organism can effect the function of the enzyme​

​

Ch. 2 - Macromolecules

Structure & Function of Macromolecules

​The substrate binds to the enzyme via the active site which creates the enzyme-substrate complex. After the reaction, they disconnect and the enzyme is free to bind to another substrate to repeate the chemical reaction.

​Ch. 3-7 - Ecology

Energy in an Ecosystem

• Autotrophs = organisms that are able to automatically make their own food (energy), also known as producers, they perform photosynthesis or chemosynthesis (ex: plants,

  bacteria)

• Heterotrophs = organisms that must consume other organisms to gain energy, also known as consumers (ex: animals)

​Ch. 3-7 - Ecology

Autotroph vs. Heterotroph

Carrying capacity - The maximum amount of organisms that can an ecosystem can hold given the resources it has​

​

Limiting factors - decrease carrying capacity ​

​

​

​Ch. 3-7 - Ecology

Carrying Capacity & Limiting Factors

• ​Density dependent limiting factors: Number of organisms in the environment DOES influence the effect of the factor.

  • Examples: Competition, Disease, Water/food resources

• Density dependent limiting factors: Number of organisms in the environment DO NOT influence the effect of the factor.

  • Examples: Natural disasters

Food Chains

​Remember that the arrows point to where the energy is going NOT who is eating who.

​Ch. 3-7 - Ecology

Ecological Succession

​

• Succession is a series of progressive changes in the composition of an ecological community over time.

• In primary succession, newly exposed or newly formed rock is colonized by living things for the first time.​

• In secondary succession, an area previously occupied by living things is disturbed—disrupted—then recolonized following the disturbance.

Cell Theory

​

1. Cells are the basic unit of life.

2. All cells come from existing cells.

3. All living things are made up of cells (unicellular or multicellular) ​

​Ch. 8-11 - Cells, Cellular Energy & Cell Division

Cell Barriers

​

• Cell wall: ridge structure that surrounds the cell membrane. Found in plant cells and most prokaryotic cells

  Cell membrane: semi-permeable phospholipid bi-layer that works to make a boundary and regulate what comes in and out of the cell ​

​Ch. 8-11 - Cells, Cellular Energy & Cell Division

Cell Organelles

​

• ​Mitochondria: ​produces ATP energy in the cell (only in eukaryotic)

​

• ​Ribosomes: make proteins (both in eukaryotic and prokaryotic)

• Vacuoles: ​store water (very large in plant cells, small in animal cells)

• Endoplasmic reticulum: ​membrane inbound organelle that secretes (releases) proteins (only in eukaryotic)

​Ch. 8-11 - Cells, Cellular Energy & Cell Division

​Ch. 8-11 - Cells, Cellular Energy & Cell Division

Cell Division

​

• In mitosis, chromosomes are separated and create 2 identical diploid daughter cells (body cells)

  Diploid = all the DNA (think double)

  In meiosis, homologous chromosomes in a diploid cell separate and creates 4 genetically unique haploid daughter cells (gametes/reproductive cells)

  Haploid = half the DNA

  Homologous chromosomes = the twin chromosomes

​

​Ch. 8-11 - Cells, Cellular Energy & Cell Division

Cell Division: Mitosis #s

​

• During interphase, before S phase = N After S phase (where DNA replication occurs) = 2N (doubled amount of DNA)

  Split duplicated chromosomes into 2 identical cells

​

​Ch. 8-11 - Cells, Cellular Energy & Cell Division

Cell Division: Meiosis

​

• Crossing over occurs during prophase 1 of meiosis where homologous chromosomes exchange genetic information which will lead to the genetic diversity of the 4 unique daughter cells.

​

​Ch. 8-11 - Cells, Cellular Energy & Cell Division

Cell Division: Checkpoints & Cancer

​

An error in the G2 checkpoint would most likely lead to cancer due to damaged or unreplicated DNA going unchecked.

​Ch. 8-11 - Cells, Cellular Energy & Cell Division

​Ch. 8-11 - Cells, Cellular Energy & Cell Division

ADP vs. ATP

​

• ADP = adenosine diphosphate (2 phosphate groups) (dead battery)

• ATP = adenosine triphosphate (3 phosphate groups) (full battery)

• When ATP is converted into ADP + Pi, energy is released and used by the cell.

• It is the release of the 3rd phosphate group in ATP that gives the cell the energy it needs. ADP then needs to gain back the 3rd phosphate group to turn into ATP and store the energy.

​Ch. 8-11 - Cells, Cellular Energy & Cell Division

Photosynthesis

​

• Reactants = light, water, CO2 (carbon dioxide)

  Products = O2 (oxygen), glucose

• Step 1: Light dependent reactions

• Step 2: Calvin cycle ​

  Remember: it is the opposite of cellular respiration

• 6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆​

​Ch. 12 - Intro to Genetics

Genotype vs. Phenotype

​

• Genotype: the genetic makeup of an organism (ex: BB, Bb, bb)

• Phenotype: the physical characteristics of the organism as a result of the genotype (ex:

  brown hair, green eyes)

​Ch. 12 - Intro to Genetics

Genotypes & Their Effect on Phenotype

​

• BB = homozygous dominant, phenotype will show dominant trait

  Bb = heterozygous, phenotype will show dominant trait since at least 1 dominant allele* is present

  bb = homozygous recessive, phenotype will show the recessive trait

​*Definition of allele - the different variations of genes that will make up the genotype.

​Ch. 12 - Intro to Genetics

Forms of Inheritance

​

• ​Codominance - When neither of the alleles are dominant over the other. They are BOTH dominate so both appear in the phenotype (ex: white dog with black spots)

​

• Genotype would look like: BW (you use the 2 big letter alleles for both genes)
