Proteins that bind small molecules (the signal) and cause a change to occur in the cell TERM 2
DEFINITION 2 Chemical messages TERM 3
DEFINITION 3 Carry message from the receptor to the inside of the cell and amplify the signal (cAMP) TERM 4
DEFINITION 4 External signals TERM 5
DEFINITION 5 Chemical messengers sent between neuron to neuron or between muscle and gland (the target cell)
Chemical Messengers that are released by the endocrine gland into the blood stream and travels to the target cell (slower transport than neurotransmitters) TERM 7
DEFINITION 7 Hair like structures TERM 8
DEFINITION 8 Space between neurons (small gap) TERM 9
DEFINITION 9 Acetyl Choline -stored in vesicles -released by one neuron - taken up by next neuron TERM 10
DEFINITION 10 -Amino Acids -Cholinergic -Adrenergic -Peptidergic -Steroids
Acetylcholinesterase TERM 17
DEFINITION 17 1.) messenger binds receptor 2.) signal is transmitted to cell interior and amplified 3.) effect: protein modification, enz. activates, opens a channel TERM 18
DEFINITION 18 signals starvation state TERM 19
DEFINITION 19 making sugar (increase sugar in blood stream) TERM 20
DEFINITION 20 breaking of sugar (decrease sugar in the blood stream)
-Lipids -Proteins -Carbohydrates TERM 22
DEFINITION 22 1.) NADH AND FADH2 bring e- and hydrogen ions from krebs cycle 2.) React with H+ and e- w/ 02 and yields water and energy 3.) would be exothermic in one step but is broken down into many steps to trap engery (heat) as ATP. TERM 23
DEFINITION 23 How ATP is made; -when e- are transferred H+ are pumped - proton gradient: high [H+] out (IMS) low [H+] in (matirx) -Is like a dam; let it out and the potential energy converts to electricity. TERM 24
DEFINITION 24 -Complex V -Last integral protein in the system -Has a proton channel -cylinder -lets H+ back in -Has a catalytic subunit - round, matrix side -uses energy to phosphorylate -ADP (makes ATP) TERM 25
DEFINITION 25 -Allows H+ back into the matrix
-Polysaccharide of glucose -In liver and muscles -broken down to release glucose TERM 32
DEFINITION 32 -Beta-Oxidation -Breaks down FA -Fats are broken down w/ bile salts working w/ lipase TERM 33
DEFINITION 33 Proteins are hydrolyzed in stomach by digestive enzymes (protease) Resulting AA's: AA enter AA pool - used for building proteins TERM 34
DEFINITION 34 AKA common catabolic pathway -glycolysis C6H12O (glucose) break down Bridging Reaction Link glycolysis and krebs Citric Acid Cycle Electron Transport/Oxidative Phosphorylation TERM 35
DEFINITION 35 How the body gets energy from monosaccharides (like glucose)
