7.5.1 Explain the four levels of protein structure, including each level’s
significance. Primary- order of
individual amino acids
Secondary- helix or pleated sheet, due to hydrogen bonds.
Tertiary- asymmetrical, cluster-like shape, due to bonding occurrences between R groups.
Quaternary- combination of two or more individual polypeptide chains.

7.5.2 Outline the difference between fibrous and globular proteins, with
reference to two examples of each protein type.
Fibrous protein- have consistant repeating sequences, which form long pieces of tissue, eg. muscle fiber, collagen.
Globular protein- asymmetrical, occur as individual units which may contain several polypeptide chains, eg. hormones, enzymes.
![Page 4: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)

7.5.3 Explain the significance of polar and non-polar amino acids.
Because the phospholipid bilayer of the plasma membrane has both hydrophilic and hydrophobic components, globular proteins will “line up”, with their hydrophilic and hydrophobic areas matching those of the plasma membrane. This helps position the proteins correctly.

7.5.4 State four functions of proteins, giving a named example of
each. Enzymes- catalase
Structural- collagen
Transport- hemoglobin
Hormones- insulin

7.6.1 State that metabolic pathways consist of chains and cycles of
enzyme catalyzed reactions.
The products of the first reaction, become the reactants of the second reaction, and so on. Enzymes catalyze each step.

7.6.4a Explain the difference between competitive and non-competitive
inhibition, with reference to one example of each.
Competitive inhibition- an inhibiting molecule structurally similar to the substrate molecule binds to the active site, preventing substrate binding. Example- the antibiotic Prontosil in bacteria.

![Page 11: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
11
7.6.4b Explain the difference between competitive and non-competitive
inhibition, with reference to one example of each.
Non-competitive inhibition- the inhibiting molecule binds to the enzyme, but not at the active site. This causes a conformational change in the overall enzyme, including its active site, which reduces activity. Example- cyanide binds to proteins in the cytochrome complex, inhibiting cell respiration.

12
7.6.5 Explain the control of metabolic pathways by end-product inhibition, including the role of allosteric sites.
ABCDE An accumulation of product E goes back and
inhibits the conversion of A, slowing the rate of the whole sequence.
Allostery is a form of non-competitive inhibition. End products of a metabolic sequence can bind to allosteric sites earlier in the metabolic pathway, regulating the entire chain of events. Example- ATP can inhibit components of glycolysis.

8.1.1 Explain oxidation and reduction.
Oxidation- involves the loss of electrons from an element. Also frequently involves gaining oxygen or losing hydrogen.
Reduction- involves a gain in electrons. Also frequently involves losing oxygen or gaining hydrogen.
![Page 15: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
15
8.1.2 Outline the process of glycolysis including phosphorylation, lysis, oxidation and ATP formation.
Glycolysis- In the cytoplasm, one hexose sugar is converted (lysis) into two tree-carbon atom compounds (pyruvate) with a net gain of two ATP and two NADH + H+.
Phosphorylation- is a process in which ATP is produced from ADP. During glycolysis, this is a substrate level phosphorylation.

Krebs Cycle- produces trios phosphate, precurser to glucose.
NADH + H+- carrier molecules created during the Krebs cycle.
Electron Transport Chain- chemiosmotic synthesis of ATP via oxidative phosphorylation
Role of oxygen- acts as a final electron acceptor for electrons which have gone through the ETC.
![Page 18: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

19
8.1.5a Explain oxidative phosphorylation in terms of
chemiosmosis. 1) NADH and FADH2 release high
energy electrons into the electron transport chain.
2) As the electrons move down the cytochrome chain toward oxygen, H+ ions are propelled against their concentration gradient from the matrix into the intermembrane space.
3)H+ ions flow back to the matrix via gated ATP synthase, which uses energy from the flow to make ATP. ATP synthase
![Page 20: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

8.1.6 Explain the relationship between the structure of the mitochondrion and its
function. 1) Cristae form a
large surface area fort he electron transport chain.
2) The space between the outer and inner membranes is small.
3) The fluid contains enzymes of the Krebs cycle.

8.2.3 Explain the light-dependent reaction.
1) photoactivation of photosystem II
2) photolysis of water
3) electron transport 4) cyclic and non-
cyclic phosphoryliation
5) photoactivation of photosystem I
6) reduction of NADP+

26
8.2.4 Explain photophosphorylation in terms of chemiosmosis.
Electron transport causes the pumping of protons to the inside of the thylakoids. They accumulate (pH drops) and eventually move out to the stroma through ATP synthase. This flow provides energy for ATP synthesis.

2) Reduction- GP is reduced to trios phosphate (TP).
3) Regeneration- RuBP is regenerated, and able to begin another turn on the cycle (with the help of Rubisco). Courtesy of Mike Jones
![Page 28: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
28
8.2.6 Explain the relationship between the structure of the chloroplast and its
function. 1) Thylakoids have a
large surface area for light absorption.
2) The area inside the thylakoid is small, which facilitates the buildup of protons used in chemiosmosis.
3) the fluid filled stroma surrounding the thylakoid contains enzymes which facilitate the calvin cycle.
![Page 29: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
29
8.2.7 Explain the relationship between the action spectrum and the absorption
spectrum of photosynthetic pigments in green plants.
The absorption spectrum illustrates the efficiency with which certain wavelengths of color are absorbed by pigments.
The action spectrum is a measure of overall photochemical activity.
![Page 30: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
30
8.2.8 Explain the concept of limiting factors in photosynthesis.
Light intensity- as light intensity increases, photosynthetic rate increases, until a maximum efficiency is reached.
Temperature- each plant species has an optimum temperature range at which photosynthesis operates. To deviate in either direction reduces photosynthetic rate.
Concentration of CO2- as concentration of CO2 increases, photosynthetic rate increases, until a maximum efficiency is reached.

9.1.1 Draw and label plant diagrams to show the distribution of tissues in the
stem and leaf of a dicotyledonous plant.
![Page 33: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
33
9.1.2 Outline three differences between the structures of dicotyledonous and
monocotyledonous plants. Dicot Flowers in groups of four or five Seeds have two cotyledons Leaves have reticulate venation
Monocot Flowers in groups of three Seeds have one cotyledon Leaves have parallel venation
![Page 34: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
34

36
9.1.5 State that dicotyledonous plants have apical and lateral
meristems.
![Page 37: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
37
9.1.6 Compare the growth due to apical and lateral meristems in
dicotyledonous plants. Meristematic tissue
generates new cells for growth of the plant.
Apical (terminal) meristems are found in roots and shoots, and facilitate vertical growth.
Lateral meristems facilitate horizontal growth,
![Page 38: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
38
9.1.7 Explain the role of auxin in phototropism as an example of the
control of plant growth. Auxin is a plant
hormone which elongates cells. When a plant is exposed to a light source, the auxin migrates away from the source. In this way, the side of the plant farther from the light elongates, bending the plant toward the light source.
![Page 39: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)

9.2.1 Explain how the root system provides a large surface area for mineral ion and water
uptake. Branching- increases overall surface area Root hairs- increases surface area of individual roots Cortex cell walls- facilitates absorption.
Yucca plant roots.Root hairs.
![Page 41: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
41
9.2.2 List ways in which mineral ions in the soil move to the root.
1) Diffusion of mineral ions.
2) Fungal hyphae (in a mutualistic relationship)
3) Mass flow of water in the soil carrying ions.
![Page 42: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
42
9.2.3 Explain the process of mineral ion absorption from soil into roots by active
transport. Integral proteins
transport minerals from the soil into roots through active transport. One the minerals have crossed over into the plants, they attract water through a concentration gradient.
![Page 43: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
43
9.2.4 State that terrestrial plants support themselves by means of thickened
cellulose, cell turgor and xylem.
![Page 44: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)

9.2.5 Define transpiration. Transpiration- the
loss of water vapor from leaves and stems of plants.
![Page 45: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
45
9.2.6 Explain how water is carried by the transpiration stream.
Xylem vessel structure- dead, empty cells with no cytoplasm.
Transpiration pull- a vacuum is created by the evaporation of water from the stomata of the leaves. The water column moves up to fill the vacuum.
Cohesion- the hydrogen bonding in water causes it to ‘stick’ to itself.
Evaporation- works with transpiration as described above.
![Page 46: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
46
9.2.7 State that guard cells can open and close stomata to regulate
transpiration.
![Page 47: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
47
9.2.8 State that the plant hormone abscisic acid causes the closing of
stomata.
![Page 48: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
48
9.2.9 Explain how the abiotic factors, light, temperature, wind and humidity affect the rate
of transpiration in a typical terrestrial mesophytic plant.
Direct relationship: light = rate temperature = rate wind = rateInverse relationship: humidity = ↓rate
![Page 49: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)

9.2.10 Outline four adaptations of xerophytes that help to reduce
transpiration. Reduced leaves and
spines Deep roots Thickened, waxy
cuticles Reduced number of
stomata
![Page 50: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
50
9.2.11 Outline the role of phloem in active translocation of sugar and
amino acids. The phloem
transports the products of photosynthesis, primarily sugar. Movement is from source (leaves) to sink (fruits, seeds, roots).
![Page 51: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)

9.3.1 Draw and label a structure of a dicotyledonous animal-pollinated
flower. Identify: sepal, petal,
anther, filament, stigma, style, ovary.
![Page 53: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
53
9.3.2 Distinguish between pollination, fertilization and seed
dispersal. Pollination- the transfer
of male gametes (pollen) from anther to stigma.
Fertilization- the fusion of pollen with a female gamete. Pollination does not always lead to fertilization.
Seed Dispersal- once fertilized, the fused ovule develops into a seed. This is then contained in a fruit, which facilitates seed dispersal.

9.3.3 Draw and label a diagram showing the external and internal structure of a
named dicotyledonous seed (non-endospermatic).
Identify: Testa Micropyle Embryo root Embryo shoot Cotyledon
![Page 55: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
55
9.3.4 Explain the conditions needed for the germination of a typical seed. Hydration- seeds
need to absorb water to initiate the germination process.
Temperature/pH- optimum temperature and pH ranges contribute to the probability of germination.
Note: Light requirements (or the lack of light) vary among seeds, and are difficult to generalize.
![Page 56: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
56
9.3.5 Outline the metabolic processes of germination in a typical
starchy seed. Absorption of water
precedes the formation of gibberellin in the cotyledon. This stimulates the production of amylase, which catalyses the breakdown of starch to maltose. This subsequently diffuses to the embryo for energy production and growth.
![Page 57: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)

9.3.6 Explain how flowering is controlled in long-day and short-day
plants, including the role of phytochrome.
Phytochrome- a plant protein which detects the length of daylight, and in turn, can trigger flowering based seasonal changes of light.
Long Day Plant- will not flower unless daylight hours extend past a certain number of hours.
Short Day Plant- will not flower unless daylight hours are capped below a certain minium.

10.1.1a Describe the behavior of chromosomes in the phases of
meiosis. Prophase I-
chromosomes start to supercoil. Homologous chromosomes pair up during synapsis.
Crossing over can occur at this stage at the chiasmata.
![Page 60: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)

10.1.1b Describe the behavior of chromosomes in the phases of
meiosis. Metaphase I-
homologous chromosomes line up along the equatorial plane.
![Page 61: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
61
10.1.1c Describe the behavior of chromosomes in the phases of
meiosis. Anaphase I-
homologous chromosomes separate, and move toward opposite poles.
(Note: there is no uncoupling of centromeres, as chromatids are still attached to each other.)
![Page 62: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
62
10.1.1d Describe the behavior of chromosomes in the phases of
meiosis. Telophase I-
chromosomes arrive at poles. Spindle microtubules disappear. Cytokinesis follows, resulting in two separate cells.
![Page 63: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)

66
10.1.1h Describe the behavior of chromosomes in the phases of
meiosis. Telophase II- spindle
microtubules disappear. Nuclear membrane reforms. Chromosomes relax into chromatin.
![Page 67: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
67
10.1.2 Outline the formation of chiasmata in the process of crossing
over. Crossing over
occurs when homologous chromosomes bend around each other. The crossing point is called the chiasmata. The result is that potions of each chromosome are interchanged.
Pictured: double crossing over.
![Page 68: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
68
10.1.3 Explain how meiosis results in an effectively infinite genetic variety
in gametes. Crossing over in prophase I- Since crossing
over can occur at any point along the chromosome, there is unlimited potential for genetic variety when it occurs.
Random orientation in metaphase 1- Homologous chromosomes line up along the equatorial plane independently of each other, eg. If chromosome 1 from the mother is on the left, chromosome two on the left is not necessarily also from the mother.
Without crossing over, the number of different gametes able to be produced, is 2n, with n= haploid number.
![Page 69: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
69
10.1.4 State Mendel’s law of independent assortment.
Law of independent assortment- homologous chromosomes separate independently of other homologous chromosomes, allowing for many combinations in gametes, and ultimately, in the zygote that if formed by egg and sperm.
![Page 70: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
70
10.1.5 Explain the relationship between Mendel’s law of
independent assortment and meiosis.
Independent assortment occurs during metaphase I of meiosis, when homologous chromosomes line up along the equatorial plane.
As chromosomes sort randomly, they create opportunities for new recombinants during fertilization, in essence shuffling the genetic deck.
![Page 71: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)

73
10.2.2 Distinguish between autosomes and sex chromosomes.
Autosomes- chromosomes pairs #1-22.
Sex chromosomes- X and y chromosomes, found as pair #23 (either as XX or Xy).
![Page 74: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
74
10.2.3 Explain how crossing over in prophase I (between non-sister chromatids of a
homologous pair) can result in an exchange of alleles.
Crossing over in prophase I- Since crossing over can occur at any point along the chromosome, there is unlimited potential for the exchange of alleles and genetic variety.
![Page 75: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)

10.3.2 Explain that polygenic inheritance can contribute to continuous variation
using two examples.
1) Human skin color- is thought to be controlled by at least 3 independent genes.
AABBCC x aabbccF1 = AaBbCc , then perform a dihybird
cross (AaBbCc), and there are many possible outcomes, such as:
AABBCc, AABBcc, AABbcc, AAbbcc, etc.
2) Human hair color- is also thought to be controlled but multiple genes, accounting for the large variety in shade.

84
11.1.3 Define active immunity and passive immunity.
Active immunity- immunity due to the production of antibodies by the organism itself after the body’s defense mechanisms have been stimulated by invasion of foreign microorganisms.
Passive immunity- immunity due to the acquisition of antibodies from another organism in which active immunity has been stimulated, including via placenta or in the colostrum.
![Page 85: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/85.jpg)
85
11.1.4 Explain antibody production.
1) Macrophage presents antigen to helper T cell
2) Helper T cell activates B cell
3) B cells divide to form clones of plasma cells and memory cells, which secrete antibodies.
Plasma cells- fight the pathogen immediately.
Memory cells- stay in body, armed and ready if the pathogen appears in again in the future.

87
11.1.6 Explain the principle of vaccination.
A vaccine introduces the disabled pathogen in some for to the body, stimulating an immune response. Memory cells are created and circulate in the body, in case the real pathogen ever shows up.
![Page 88: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/88.jpg)
88
11.1.7 Discuss the benefits and dangers of vaccination.

11.3.3 Annotate a diagram of a glomerulus and associated nephron to show the function of each part.
![Page 102: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/102.jpg)
102
11.3.4 Explain the process of ultrafiltration.
Ultrafiltration- Blood pressure from the pumping heart forces fluid and materials out of the glomerulus (across a semi-permeable membrane) into the nephron.
Fenestrated blood capillaries- are elastic in nature to help with ultrafiltration.
Basement membrane- thick, layer of negatively charges tissue which helps keep negatively charged particles from crossing into the nephron.
![Page 103: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/103.jpg)
103
11.3.5 Define osmoregulation.
Osmoregulation- the control of the water balance of the blood, tissue or cytoplasm of a living organism. An inability to osmoregulate may result in edema.
![Page 104: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/104.jpg)
104
11.3.6 Explain the reabsorption of glucose, water and salts in the proximal
convoluted tubule. Reabsorption- water and
solutes which have been removed from the blood from ultrafiltration are moved back into the blood. Reabsorption involves: Microvilli- increase surface
area to help facilitate reabsorption
Osmosis- water is diverted back into the blood due to a concentration gradient.
Active transport- some solutes are actively transported back into the blood.
![Page 105: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/105.jpg)
105
11.3.7 Explain the roles of the loop of Henle, medulla, collecting duct and ADH
in maintaining water balance of the blood.
ADH= antidiuretic hormone. ADH increase = more water reabsorbed.ADH decrease = more water released in urine.
Collecting duct- funnels water into the ureter for excretion.
The primary role of the Loop of Henle is to reabsorb water. Water leaves the descending loop due to a concentration gradient, sodium leaves the ascending side due to active transport.
![Page 106: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/106.jpg)
106
11.3.8 Explain the differences in the concentration of proteins, glucose and urea between blood plasma, glomerular filtrate
and urine. The flow sequence is: blood plasma glomerular
filtrateurine
As fluid progresses through the renal system, nitrogenous waste (urea) moves into the filtrate and is eliminated through the urine. Glucose also moves into the filtrate but is reabsorbed back into the blood. Large proteins remain in the blood plasma, and are not moved into the glomerular filtrate.
![Page 107: Unit 7: Nucleic Acids and Proteins](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062302/56816417550346895dd5ccc6/html5/thumbnails/107.jpg)
107
11.3.9 Explain the presence of glucose in the urine of untreated
diabetic patients.A diabetic’s inability metabolize glucose can result in hyperglycemia. Elevated levels of glucose in the blood will move into the glomerular filtrate, but will not be reabsorbed back into the blood. Instead, excess glucose will be found in the urine.

11.4.5 Outline the processes involved
in oogenesis within the ovary. 1) mitosis 2) cell growth 3) two
divisions of meiosis
4) unequal division of cytoplasm
5) degeneration of polar body

11.4.7 Outline the role of the epididymis, seminal vesicle and prostate gland in the
production of semen.Epididymis- an area
above the testicle where sperm is stored until ejaculation.
Seminal vesicle- gland that contributes most of the fluid volume of semen (about 70%).
Prostate gland- also contributes to seminal fluid (about 10-30%).

11.4.8 Compare the processes of spermatogenesis and oogenesis.
Number of viable gametes formed from one stem cell:spermatogenesis 4oogenesis 1
Timing and formation of gametes:spermatogenesis- development of sperm is continuous from puberty onward.oogenesis- development occurs in a monthly cycle, beginning with puberty and ending with menopause.

11.4.9 Describe the process of fertilization.
1) acrosome reaction- acrosome releases enzymes which digest the surrounding layer of the egg.
2) penetration of egg membrane by sperm 3) cortical reaction- cortical granules are
secreted by the egg via exocytosis, rendering the egg impermeable to future sperm.

11.4.10 Outline the role of human chorionic gonadoprophin (HCG) in
early pregnancy. HCG is secreted by
the embryo during early pregnancy. HCG helps signals the corpus luteum to stay active by continuing to secrete progesterone, which maintains the pregnancy.

11.4.11 Outline early embryo development up to the implantation
of the blastocyst.

11.4.12 Explain how the structure and functions of the placenta, including it’s hormonal role in
secretion of estrogen and progesterone, maintain pregnancy.
The placenta’s primary purpose is to bridge the blood supply between mother and fetus.
Secretion of progesterone helps maintain the uterine lining and placenta.
Secretion of estrogen inhibits the development of new follicles.

11.4.15 Outline the process of birth and its hormonal control.
Reduction in the level of progesterone results in the release of oxytocin. Oxytocin causes uterine contractions that trigger further release of oxytocin. In this way, the contractions get stronger and more rapid. This is an example of positive feedback.
