BSC 1010C Study Guide - Final Guide: Light-Dependent Reactions, C4 Carbon Fixation, Genomic Imprinting
Document Summary
This study guide has been prepared assuming that you read the chapters thoroughly before focusing on the following topics. Chap 1: inductive and deductive reasoning, darwin"s evolutionary theory, scientific method. Chap 2: cations and anions, ionic, covalent, hydrogen bonds, electronegativity, chemical equilibrium. Chap 3: polarity of water molecules and why, ph calculation. Isomers, enantiomers, property that functional group imparts to the molecule. Chap 5: four important bio macromolecules- proteins, lipids (saturated and unsaturated, steroids), carbohydrates (no need for detailed structure for each kind of sugar) and nucleic acid, monomers and polymers of each kind of macromolecules. Chap 6: size of cells and the kind of microscope to use to visualize them, cell fractionation, function of different organelles and extracellular components. Chap 7: transport across membranes (passive and active) Chap 8: free energy change and metabolism, calculation based on delta g= delta h t deltas, relationship between free energy, capacity to perform work and stability.
