#1
Front (Question)

Match the eukaryotic subcellular structure with its function. 7 Nucleus, lysosome, mitochondria, rough ER, cytoplasm, smoot ER, plasma m

Back (Answer)

Nucleus: Genetic Expression // Genomic Storage / Expression Lysosome: Cellular Digestion Mitochondria: ATP Production Rough ER: Secreted/Membrane-bound Protein Production Cytoplasm: Cellular Protein Synthesis Smooth ER: Synthesizing lipids, metabolizing carbs, regulating calcium ions, detoxifying harmful substances Plasma membrane: regulates the transport of substances

#2
Front (Question)

How was metabolism to be determined to be [REDACTED] a highly conserved system across species?

Back (Answer)

Glycolysis was found in yeast and animals through biochemical analysis of breakdown of glucose

#3
Front (Question)

Match the disease with the genetic error that causes it. CESD,WD, Ethanol

Back (Answer)

Cholesterol Ester Storage Disease – Exon Splice Error Wolman’s Disease – Premature Stop Codon Ethanol sensitivity: aldehyde dehydrogenase has two forms, high km cytoplasmic, and low km mitochondrial. This disorder has a point mutation that causes the low km mitochondrial form to be significantly less active.

#4
Front (Question)

What is the best way to distinguish between [REDACTED] Disease and [REDACTED] Disease? CESD vs WD, Hers vs Von, diabetes 1 vs 2 vs Von

Back (Answer)

Cholesterol Ester Storage Disease – Exon Splice Error, low enz function. Wolman’s Disease – Premature Stop Codon, lethal at young age, no enz function Hers Disease – Phosphorylase Deficiency – Liver isozyme deficiency, improved with age. I Von Gierke Disease – No glucose-6-phosphatase in liver, lethal at infancy. Threat of lactic acidosis because it uses glucose-6-phosphate for glycolysis rather than exporting it. Diabetes Mellitus Type 1 – Loss of pancreatic beta cells that produce insulin. Liver in gluconeogenic state. Diabetes Mellitus Type 2 – Insulin resistance. I Von Gierke Disease – No glucose-6-phosphatase in liver, lethal at infancy.

#5
Front (Question)

From the biomolecules listed, identify those that can be used [REDACTED]: (Select all that apply) energy, traced amounts (12)

Back (Answer)

ALL Proteins – structure/catalysis Nucleic Acids – information storage /coenzyme Lipids – cell signaling / membranes Carbohydrates – storage / source of electrons Used in trace amounts: Zinc, Cobalt, Selenium, magnesium, chromium, manganese, vanadium, iron, nickel, copper, molybdenum, iodine.

#6
Front (Question)

A patient presents at [REDACTED] age with significant exogenous cholesterol accumulation in all body tissues. Which genetic error is this patient most likely to have? young age + infant

Back (Answer)

Young age – Exon Splicing Error Infant – Wolman disease – premature stop codon and NO functional protein

#7
Front (Question)

From the elements presented below, identify those elements that are primary elements of life: 10

Back (Answer)

Phosphate, carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, sodium, potassium, calcium, sulfur, chlorine

#8
Front (Question)

Which of the lysosomal-based diseases manifests [REDACTED] enzyme? No activity, reduced activity

Back (Answer)

Reduced activity – Cholesterol Ester Storage Disease (CESD) No activity – Wolman Disease (WD)

#9
Front (Question)

How was metabolism determined to be [REDACTED] across species? Highly conserved

Back (Answer)

Highly conserved – Glycolysis was found in yeast and animals, same 10 cellular intermediates and same 10 enzymes found in both

#10
Front (Question)

Which of the two [REDACTED] diseases listed is dangerous but treatable?

Back (Answer)

von gierke disease (starch) and cholesterol ester storage disease
