Biology Major Field Test Study Set with
Complete Solutuions

"4 Biomolecules and Monomers - Answer✔✔-Protein (amino acids) Carbohydrates (simple

sugars) Lipids (glycerol and fatty acids) Nuclei acids (nucleotides)"


dipeptides - Answer✔✔-two amino acids bonded together


what is the general fatty acid formula - Answer✔✔-CH3(CH2)nCOOH where n= an even number

between 12 and 24


explain identifying saturated vs. unsaturated fats - Answer✔✔-saturated: only single bonds in

hydrocarbon chain... unsaturated: one or more double bonds


glycerides - Answer✔✔-glycerol and 3 fatty acids


Levels of Protein Structure - Answer✔✔-1. order of amino acids 2. alpha-helices or beta-pleated

sheets 3. bonding b/w a.a. side chains 4. multi-subunit structure


nucleotide is composed of - Answer✔✔-phosphate group; sugar group; nitrogenous base


Vmax - Answer✔✔-maximum reaction rate at which point substrate is saturated with enzyme


Feedback Inhibition - Answer✔✔-end-product of enzyme catalyzed rxn. blocks original enz.


Competitive Inhibition - Answer✔✔-molecules compete with substrate for enzyme's active sites

irreversible inhibitors - Answer✔✔-chemically and covalently bind to active site; rendering it

permanently inactive


psuedoirreversible inhibitors - Answer✔✔-extremely high affinities for active site; hard to

displace


noncompetitive inhibitors - Answer✔✔-do not compete for active site but act elsewhere on

enz.; altering 3D shape


photosynthesis - Answer✔✔-anabolic process that converts sunlight into energy stored in the

phosphate bonds of ATP, then more permanently stored in bonds of organic carbon compounds


electron transport chain - Answer✔✔-series of carrier molecules on the inner mitochondrial

membrane which pass electrons through enzymes that pump protons to one side of the

membrane, creating a proton gradient


chemiosmosis - Answer✔✔-the use of a gradient, such as a proton gradient, to generate energy.

The ATP synthase enzyme uses the kinetic movement of protons down the gradient to store

energy by converting ADP to ATP


ATP - Answer✔✔-Adenosine tri phosphate, a modified nucleotide that stores energy in it's

phosphate bonds.


fermentation - Answer✔✔-glycolysis and the additional steps leading to the formation of

ethanol or lactic acid, to make ATP. It does not include the Kreb's cycle (producing CO2) or the

ETC.

occluding/tight junctions - Answer✔✔-nothing can diffuse between cells or past junction


anchoring junctions - Answer✔✔-physical joining so cells do not shear away


communicating junctions - Answer✔✔-gap junctions are formed by proteins called connexins

that allow for undisrupted and very fast signal transmission


plasmodesmata - Answer✔✔-plant cells' equivalent of gap junctions


G-actin - Answer✔✔-globular monomer


F-actin - Answer✔✔-long filament


microtubules - Answer✔✔-cellular conveyor belts


microtubule assoc. proteins - Answer✔✔-attach to tubulin on one end and cargo on the other

dyneins: pull to center kinesins: outside"


9+2 structure - Answer✔✔-9 prs microtubules surrounding 2 central microtubules for stability

(structure of cilia&flagella)


basal bodies - Answer✔✔-microtubule triplets; anchor cilia/flagella; foundation for new

microtubules


centrioles - Answer✔✔-anchor microtubules growing into mitotic spindle


intermediate filaments - Answer✔✔-thin fibers wound together in tight coils; membrane

stability


proto-oncogenes - Answer✔✔-normal genes involved in control of cell growth/division
