AP Biology 2nd 9 Weeks Test Review

Four levels of protein structure

primary, secondary, tertiary, quaternary

What organelles may have originated from prokaryotic cells and what is the evidence of this? What is the function of each organelle?

Eukaryotic and the evidence of this is endosymbiotic cyanobacteria

What is the function of the rough ER, smooth ER, Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, and vacuoles?

1. Assembling proteins
2. Make hormones and lipids
3. Modifying, Sorting, and Packaging of proteins for secretion
4. Digestion and waste removal
5. Storage, waste disposal, protection, structure

What are the different types of cell membrane transport? Which uses energy? Why does it need/not need energy?

1. Passive Transport - High to low concentration gradient, does not require energy (diffusion, fac. diffusion, osmosis)
2. Active Transport - Low to high concentration gradient, does require energy (primary, secondary)
