7879583291 | primary structure | -linear chain of amino acids -in a specific sequence -determined by DNA -dictates secondary and tertiary structures (R chains cause reactions with eachother) -peptide bonds | 15 | |
7879583292 | secondary structure | -folds and coils of polypeptide chain repeatedly contribute to overall shape -a helix or b pleated sheets -hydrogen bonds | 16 | |
7879583293 | tertiary structure | -3D shape -shaped by interactions between R side chain - bonds include Hydrogen bonds Ionic bonds Van der Waals-weak Disulfide bridges | 17 | |

7879583299 | what is the function of an enzyme and what does it do to complete its function? | -a protein macromolecule that acts as a catalyst -speeds up metabolic reactions by lowering the activation energy barrier -allows the reactants to absorb enough energy to react at room temperature | 19 | |
7879583300 | list factors that affect enzyme activity and for each be sure to explain how they affect the enzyme | -temperature (substrates collide more frequently under higher temperatures) -pH -optimal | 20 | |
7879583303 | compare and contrast prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells | -prokaryotic- DNA found in nucleoid -DNA is circular with 1 chromosome -evolved before eukaryotic -simple -plasma membrane, cell wall, flaggellum, nucleoid, ribosomes, capsule, and cytosol -lack membrane-bound organelles -small -eukaryotic-DNA in nucleus (double membrane) -linear chromosomes -membrane bound organelles -larger similarities:-interior cytoplasm -plasma membrane -cell walls (plants only for eukaryotic) -chromosomes, DNA, and ribosomes -cytoskeleton | 21 | |

7879583317 | water potential | (water potential=solute potential+pressure potential) -determines the direction of water movement -affected by solute and pressure potential | 33 | |
7879583318 | solute potential | (solute potential= -iCRT) -proportional to the osmolarity of a solution -can be either 0 or negative | 34 | |

7879583320 | hypertonic solution | -the solution with more solute -sucks liquid from comparative solution -cell loses water -salt h20 | 36 | |
7879583321 | hypotonic solution | -the solution with less solute -adds liquid to comparative solution -cell takes in more water -pure water | 37 | |
