How dose the mitochondria function during a mitochondrial
disorders? For example structure/function relationship of the
inherited disorder known as Leber's hereditary optic
neuropathy.
Question 5: Mitochondrial Function
a) Both the mitochondria and chloroplast contain
electron transport chains. Describe two similarities of the
electron transport chains despite being located in different
organelles.
b) In the mitochondrion, the electron transport chain is
normally coupled to ATP synthase. However, in endothermic animals,
the electron transport chain is uncoupled from ATP synthase when
temperatures drop below a certain threshold. Explain why uncoupling
of the electron transport chain from ATP synthase is advantageous
for an animal under cold...
What is the general structure and function of each of the cell
structures:
1. Mitochondria
- What high energy molecule(s) is generated from the
tricarboxylic acid cycle and the electron transport chain?
- Are these aerobic or anaerobic reactions?
2. Ribosomes
3. Endomembrane system
- Endoplasmic reticulum
- Golgi apparatus --what are the forming and maturing faces?
4. Cytoskeleton
- Microfilaments: actin
- Intermediate filaments
- Thick filaments: Microtubules ( centriole, centrosome, cilia),
myosin
5. Nucleus
6. Lysosome
One of the central principles of Biology is the relationship
between structure and function. Discuss structure/function
relationship in biological membranes. Describe what they are made
of, what are their functions and use examples to make the link
between structure and function. Emphasis should be placed on
aspects of membrane permeability
Structure and Function: explain the idea that structure and
function are interrelated using an example, given a description of
a structure, infer the function, or vice versa.
Cell Question
Describe the structure and function of each of the following:
lysosomes, peroxisomes, vacuoles, mitochondria, chloroplasts,
plastids, internal cell membranes, centrosome, microtubules,
centromeres, ribosomes, smooth and rough endoplasmic reticulum, and
Golgi bodies.
1)
Describe the structure (membrane) and function of organelles,
mitochondria, chloroplasts, nucleus, lysosomes.
2) State the color of gram negativr and gram positive bacteria
in each step of the gram staining procedure ( more focusing on the
deacription of steps)
1. Describe the general structure and functions of
mitochondria
2. Explain how the processes of fission and fusion affect the
number, length, and degree of interconnection of mitochondria
3. Describe the structure/composition and function of the
mitochondrial membranes and compartments, listing the components of
these membranes/compartments that were discussed in class.
4. Explain the advantage conferred by cristae to mitochondria
and describe how you would expect the number of cristae to vary
depending on the energetic demands of a cell.
