autotrophs
makes their own energy ex. plants
heterotrophs
consumes things to get energy ex. literally almost everything that isnt a plant
ATP (adenoisine triphosphate)
basic energy unit of the cell
adenoisine triphosphate
made of 1 adenosine molecule and 3 phosphates—high energy bond but only 2 & 3 are useable
ADP (adenosine diphosphate)
made when energy is used from AtP and phosphate is broken off with no useable energy. ADPS get made into ATPS n its a cycle
photosynthesis
used by autotrophs to make glucose—coverts kinetic energy/sunlight to potential energy/glucose
chlorophyll
pigment that captures light and found in cholorplasts of plant cells
light dependent phase
needs sunlight and results in water splitting, creation of ATP and NADPH, oxygen liberated
chemiosmosis
so many hydrogen molecules are made and go through enzymes to supply energy to make ATPs
Calvin cycle
works with or without sunlight and results in glucose, water, ADP and NADP
cellular respiration
breaking down of glucose into ATP ener
aerobic cellular respiration
oxygen
anaerobic cellular respiration (fermentation)
no oxygen
codons
groups of 3 nucleic bases; code for specific amino acids
bases
RNA =guanine (G), cytosine (C), adenine (A), urac
mRNA/ messenger RNA
carries codons from Dna in the nucleus to a ribosome in the cytoplasm of a cell
tRNA/ transfer RNA
attaches to amino acids in the cytoplasm and transfers them to the ribosome—contains anticodons
rRNA/ ribosomal RNA
Becomes a part of a ribsome where protiens are put together—RNA is made in a process called Transcription
Transcription
Dna protein chain code is given to Rna
travel
mRNA travels to the ribosome
translation
mRNA protien code is read by the ribosome
transfer
tRNA transfers its amino acids to the ribosome, anticodons line up and bond with the proper codons on the mRNA
tying together
amino acids are bonded together to make a polypeptide chain
homeostasis
steady state maintained by metabolism
metabolism
sum of all lifed processes of an organism
metabolism
the rate at which an organism uses energy to maintain its life processed
anabolism
processed that build up or store energy ex. amino acids making proteins
catabolism
processes that break down or release energy ex.digestion, protiens to amino acids
intracellular
digestion inside the cell
autophagy
remodling of the cell; breaks down old structures and reuses parts
extracellular
digestion outside of the cell ex. our stomachs
