Bio Test 3 Crossword 2
Across
- 3. cause influx of Na+ that depolarizes membrane, increases likelihood of firing action potential
- 5. spike in membrane potential in response to a stimulus; voltage-gated sodium and potassium channels open
- 12. location of most prominent mechanically-gated channel
- 14. site of oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria; ETC embedded; lots of cristae to increase surface area
- 15. small, hydrophobic molecule that picks up loose electrons to ferry them between respiratory complexes
- 16. makes membrane less negative until a threshold is reached
- 21. voltage-gated; continuously propagate the electric potential along the axon, so it doesn't weaken
- 23. series of electron carriers embedded in the membrane
- 24. large polymeric molecules are broken into monomers by enzymes; small molecules are recycled; occurs in intestine or in lysososmes; organic molecules then enter cells
- 26. inhibitory synaptic signaling, Cl- channel
- 30. energy from oxidation of fat dissipated as heat rahter than converted to ATP
- 32. released into synaptic cleft by neuron to bind with the postsynaptic cell; bind to ion channels and help keep them open, convert electrical - chemical - back to electrical
- 35. catalyzes rearrangement of bonds within a single molecule; prepare molecules for chemical alterations
- 36. resting membrane potential
- 37. catalyzes addition of phosphate group to molecules; transfer phosphate from ATP to substrate or make ATP from ADP
- 39. enzymes degrade complex molecules into simpler ones; digestion, glycolysis, citric acid cycle, oxidative phosphorylation
- 40. produces 3 NADH, 1 GTP, 1 FADH2, 2 molecules CO2; regenerates itself; mitochondrial matrix
- 41. voltage-gated; return membrane to resting potential after action potential
- 42. large internal space in mitochondrion
- 43. embedded in inner mitochondrial membrane, pump H+ across membrane using energy from electron transfer; include metals
- 45. tendency for redox pair to donate/accept electrons; low potential means low electron affinity
- 46. make membrane permeable to protons, prevents ATP synthesis by ATP synthase (no more H+ gradient)
- 47. proton pumping used to power ATP synthesis; proton gradient acts as "high-energy intermediate"; disruption of membrane inhibits ATP production
- 48. (binding-change model) ADP and phosphate catalyzed to ATP
- 49. voltage-gated; stimulate neurotransmitter release
Down
- 1. ATP, NADH; store the energy released in cell respiration in the form of "high energy" covalent bonds that can be hydrolyzed when needed
- 2. useful energy is derived from chemical energy in bonds of sugars as sugar is oxidized to CO2 and H2O
- 4. converts electric signal to chemical signal; opens voltage-gated Ca2+ channels; very close together
- 6. final electron carrier in respiratory chain, highest redox potential; removes electrons from cytochrome c (from iron)
- 7. cause influx of Cl- that keeps membrane polarized, decreases likelihood of firing action potential
- 8. mitochondrial process that produces most of the ATP used in eukaryotes; consumption of O2, addition of a phosphate group to ADP; high energy carriers donate electrons to ETC, O2 final acceptor
- 9. anaerobic pathway that uses a molecule other than oxygen as a final electron acceptor to make ATP; needs electron-transport chain embedded in a membrane
- 10. glucose is split into two pyruvates; other sugars can be oxidized; occurs in cytosol; ATP and NADH generated; pyruvate transported to mitochondrion's inner matrix; net gain 2 ATP, 2 NADH per glucose
- 11. excitatory synaptic signaling at neuromuscular junction
- 13. space between inner and outer membranes of mitochondria; similar to cytosol
- 17. turbine-like enzyme that couples movement of protons across the membrane with ATP production; can also reverse and act as a pump if needed
- 18. catalyzes oxidation of molecule by removing hydrogen and hydride ion; helps generate NADH
- 19. (binding-change model) ADP and phosphate bound
- 20. cell is resetting from action potential, can't receive another stimulus
- 22. favorable enzyme-catalyzed reactions involved in breakdown of food are coupled to phosphorylation of ADP to ATP
- 25. relatively low electron affintiies, prominent early in electron-tranasport chains
- 27. (binding-change model) ADP and phosphate bind, ATP leaves
- 28. important metabolism intermediate; can be produced by sugars or fatty acids; generated in the mitochondria
- 29. anaerobic, pyruvate and NADH remain in cytosol; pyruvate is converted into lactate (muscles) or ethanol and CO2 (yeast); NADH gives up electrons and is converted bac to NAD+
- 31. substrate for the movement of protons, often induced by lone electrons moving around
- 33. occurs in mitochondrial matrix in presence of oxygen; produces NADH and acetyl CoA
- 34. change occurs in catalytic beta subunits, coupled to movement of H+ across membrane, which causes rotation of central stalk (gamma subunit)
- 38. catalyzes shifting of chemical group from one position to another within a molecule; helps with ADP to ATP
- 44. transport protein in outer membrane of mitochondrion; creates large aqueous channels open to smalll molecules
