Name Period Chapter 7: Membrane Structure and Function Concept 7.1 Cellular membranes are fluid mosaics of lipids and proteins 1. The large molecules of all living things fall into just four main classes. Name them. Explain what is meant when we say a molecule is amphipathic. 3. In the 1960s‚ the Davson-Danielli model of membrane structure was widely accepted. Describe this model and then cite two lines of evidence that were inconsistent with it. 4

1. The woman in the photograph is Henrietta Lacks. She had seen the picture many times in magazines and science textbooks‚ on blogs and laboratory walls. Rebecca Skloot may start to write this book to know about Henrietta Lacks. She was staring at the photo for a long time and she always had wondered about Henrietta Lacks’ life story. Rebecca Skloot went to an alternative school after she had failed her freshman year at a regular public high school. She took a biology class at a community college

The hypothesis for this lab was that Core B will be the least flexible due to a loss in water. Unfortunately‚ my results led my hypothesis to be incorrect. The results that were received was that Core C was the most flexible‚ Core B was somewhat flexible‚ and Core A was not flexible and stiff. Core A was the most non-adjustable due to it being hypertonic which means that the total concentration of all the dissolved solute particles is greater than the other solution. Core B was isotonic meaning

Introduction Enzymes are catalytic proteins. The purpose of a catalyst is to speed up metabolic reactions by lowering the free energy of activation or activation energy. Activation energy is known as the amount of energy needed to push the reactants over an energy barrier‚ so that the downhill part of the reaction can begin (Campbell 151). In an enzyme catalyzed reaction‚ the enzyme binds to its substrate‚ which is the reactant an enzyme acts on. In the reactions‚ the enzymes are very specific

CHAPTER 14 1. Norm of reaction: the phenotypic range that a genotype is associated with due to environmental influences. 2. Multifactorial: characters that have many factors‚ both genetic and environmental‚ collectively influence phenotype. 3. Pleiotropy: when a gene controls multiple phenotypic effects 4. Epistasis: When a gene at one locus alters the phenotypic expression of a gene at a second locus 5. Carrier: a person who is heterozygous for a recessive disease and therefore

40) Describe the structure of a mammalian respiratory system. Include in your discussion the mechanisms of inspiration and expiration. In mammals‚ oxygen first passes through the nasal cavity. The nasal cavity is covered with mucus and cicilia to filter the air. The nasal cavity leads to the pharynx. The pharynx consists of the eustachian tube and the tonsils. The inhaled air then passes to the larynx‚ trachea‚ and bronchi. The bronchi lead to the bronchioles in the lungs. In the lungs the pleural

AP Bio Lab Report Osmosis and Diffusion Introduction When a substance is released into an area‚ the random movement of its molecules results in a multitude of collisions. These collisions‚ in turn‚ lead to a dispersion of the molecules. The overall movement of the molecules will be from an area of high concentration‚ where there will be more collisions‚ to areas of low concentration‚ where the number of collisions will be much less. This process of dispersion will continue until there is no

\ Chapter 23 Reading guide 1. what is the smallest unit of evolution and why is this important to understand? The population is the smallest unit of evolution . This is important to understand because it keeps clear what is evolving. 2. Define the following terms: a. Microevolution: evolutionary change below the species level; change in the genetic makeup of a population from generation to generation. It is evolutionary change on its smallest scale b. Population: a localized group
