Study Guide by Narendran Sairam, Steven Kraplin and Rajat Goyal LECTURE NOTES (NARENDRAN SAIRAM) CELL THEORY

In 1838 Schleiden and Schwann came up with cell theory. In 1838 cell theory consisted of three parts: a. The cell is a structure of physiology and organization. b. Cells have a dual existence: 1. as an entity 2. as a building block of live. c. Cells form from free cell formation also called spontaneous generation. CELLS Cells have two types of differences; a. Morphological differences: Have to do with structural differences. Eg. Eukayotes have a nucleus while prokaryotes have no true nucleus. b. Phylogenetic differences: Have to do with genetic differences. Eg. Bacterial, Eukaryan and Archean cells have phylogenetic differences. PROKARYOTES AND EUKARYOTES Three shapes: Coccus: ball shaped Basilicus: Rod shaped. Spirilum: spiral The cell walls of the prokaryotes are made up of carbohydrates and proteins. These molecules are called peptiglycans. The plasma membrane pressurizes the cell wall and helps it retain its shape. The plasma membrane and the cell wall help protect the cell. Most bacteria have a single large circular chromosomes but some have linear chromosomes Ribosomes are made up of three different types of RNA molecules and more than 50 types of proteins. Plasmids are circles of DNA that are twisted. Plasmids are capable of changing rapidly according to their environment. Flagellum: These, in prokaryotes, serve the same function the serve in eukaryotes. Cytoskeleton: this made up of cytoplasm and stiff fibers. In prokaryotes, the cytoskeleton is very complex in comparison to eukaryotes. Eukaryotes Prokaryotes Membrane bound organelles No organelles 5-100 micro meters 1-10 micrometers Nuclear envelope delineates the nucleus No true nucleus Complex cytoskeleton Simple Cytoskeleton. Reasons/advantages of having organelles: 1. To get things done faster(improves efficiency) 2. Compartmentalization (keeps different reactions separate from one another) All structures in a eukaryotic cell are membrane bound. MEMBRANE STRUCTURE
Narendran Sairam, Rajat Goyal and Steven Kraplin

The Achaean phospholipids: The Archaean membrane is made up of Phosphate(PO4-2), glycerol and isoprene. The Eukaryan/ Bacterial phospholipids: Made up of serine, Phosphate group, a glycerol group and a bunch of fatty acids. Serine is and amino acid that attracts water very well. This is because both, water and serine are polarized. Essentially serine is Hydrophilic (water liking). The fatty acids on the other hand are hydrophobic (dont like water) because they are not charged. Actual Structure: The membrane is made up of two phospholipids placed back-to-back. This makes it a phospholipids bilayer. The chemicals and the food get into the cell through the bilayer. This process is called diffusion. Diffusion is basically a change in the concentration gradient. The diffusion of water through a membrane is called osmosis. MEMBRANE PROTIENS There are three types of membrane proteins; a. Transport proteins: There are three types of transport proteins: Carrier proteins: These proteins move molecules through a membrane. Eg C6H12O6. This is done by diffusion. Channel proteins: these allow movement of ions through a membrane. Pumps: These allow movement of ions against the concentration gradient (opposite of diffusion). b. Receptor Proteins c. Cell to cell recognition The Endoplasmic Reticulum and the Golgi apparatus proteins: These are also called glycoprotein. They have Carbohydrates sticking out of their cell. This carbohydrate helps recognize other proteins of the same body or organ.

ORGANELLES Endoplasmic Reticulum(E.R.): 1. Rough ER: Cytoprotein (cellular protein) synthesis takes place in the membrane of the
Narendran Sairam, Rajat Goyal and Steven Kraplin

Rough ER. Once the proteins are made they are compartmented and left in the cytoplasm. 2. Smooth ER: Regulates C (Carbon) ion concentration. They make phospholipids and other non-protein based molecules that help in killing toxins. The biochemical reactions that produce proteins and phospholipids are very complex. Proteins that are made in the Rough ER are transported to the cytoplasm ribosomes and to the Golgi apparatus for activation. Golgi apparatus: This organelle is made up of three parts. A flat membrane sac called the cisternae. This cisternae holds the lumen (everything inside itself). 1. Cisface: This part is close to the ER and receives the transport vesicles that carry the proteins. 2. The Medieval Region: This the space between the cis and trans faces (not shown in the picture). Acts as a transport between the extreme faces of the Golgi apparatus. 3. Transface: This part is closest to the Plasma membrane. It packs the altered and activated molecules and transports them to the membrane and other parts of the body. The Golgi apparatus produces lysosomes (organelles that produce digestive enzymes). They also modify proteins and activate them. The proteins are put in the lysosomes and are transported to other parts of the body.

Chloroplasts: This is made up of two membranes; inner and outer membrane. There is a space between the two membranes. This space is called intermembranal space. This organelle is only found in plants and protists. It is the site of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis: The thylocoids capture the photons with the help of chlorophyll and carotenoids on their membranes and house the conversion machinery. Equation: 6CO2+6H2O C6H6O12 + 6O2 This reaction is divided into two parts. During photosynthesis, plants take Carbon Dioxide from their surroundings and use it to make glucose. a) Photophosphorylation or light-dependent reaction and b)Calvins cycle or light-independent reaction. Photophosphorylation coverts light energy into chemical energy. Calvin's cycle uses the stored energy, water and CO2 to give glucose. Since glucose (C6H12O6 ) has bonds that require a lot of energy and since CO2 's carbon-oxygen bonds don't have too much potential energy, their potential energy must be increased in order to make glucose. This energy is acquired from the photons of light. In order to use the energy of the photons the energy must be converted into chemical form to be stored. This process is called Photophosphorylation. Photo ("light") phosphorylation ("the addition of phosphate to a molecule") basically adds a phosphate to ADP to make it ATP and there by stores energy in ATP. The process takes place in the grana (Figure1), within the tylakoids. The environment within the grana is suitable for chemiosmosis (process where ADP is synthesized to ATP). The photons of light are captured by the antennae called photo systems and are brought into the reaction center where they are converted into chemical energy. Mitochondrion: This organelle is found in both, plants and animals. Its function is to produce energy by producing ATP. It converts Glucose to ATP. The mitochondrion, like the chloroplast has two membranes and space between those membranes. The outer membrane separates the cytocol(the jelly like part of the cytoplasm) from the inside. The

Narendran Sairam, Rajat Goyal and Steven Kraplin

only things that enter the mitochondrion are enzymes, proteins, glucose and oxygen. The actual reaction takes place in the matrix. This reaction is called cellular respiration. There are two types of cellular respiration: a. Aerobic respiration( respiration in the presence of oxygen). The steps in aerobic respiration are: Glycolysis: occurs in the

cytoplasm of a cell. This converts the 6 Carbon atoms in C6H6O12 (Glucose) to 2C3(Pyruvate). Kerbs Cycle: This part of the cycle requires oxygen. It starts with Pyruvate and O2 and produces 4CO2 and ATP.

In the end the number of ATPs produced are approximately 32-36. b. Anaerobic respiration: Since this reaction takes place in the absence of air there is no Kerbs cycle. Therefore anaerobic respiration only produces 4 ATP which results in muscle burn and lactic acid buildup. Nucleus: The nucleus is an organelle that has a double membrane and pores in between the membranes. This is where the DNA is coded. The stuff inside the nucleus is called Chromatin. There are two types of Chromatin; Heterochromatin and euchromatin. Heterochromatin is chromatin that is dense and is not being coded while euchromatin is less dense and is being coded for.

Respiratory system: exchanges gases (mainly O2, H2O and CO2) with the environment. Reproductive system: produces gametes and provides organs for fetal development in females.

Notes

Blastula is a ball of cells that goes through a process called gastrulation and produces a gatrula. The Gastrula has three parts to it endoderm, ectoderm and sometimes mesoderm. Before the final stages of gastrulation take places the cells are 'told' weather they are going to become ectoderms, mesoderms or enoderms. The ectoderm forms the brain, nerves and spinal chord and skin. The mesoderms form the internal organs and the skletons. ***most protostomes and deuterostomes have three germ layers.

Narendran Sairam, Rajat Goyal and Steven Kraplin

THE INTEGUMENTARY SYSTEM The skin is and up of three types of epithelial tissues. a. columnar epithelial tissue:

b. cuboidal epithelial tissue:

Narendran Sairam, Rajat Goyal and Steven Kraplin

c.squamous epithelial tissue:

THE CIRCULATORY SYSTEM There are two types of circulatory systems: a. Open Circulatory Systems are circulatory systems where all the bodily fluids are dumped into one cavity inside the organism. Some mollusks and arthropods have this kind of a circulatory system. These creatures do not posses blood. Instead they have hemolymph which is a mixture of blood, lymph and byproducts. This hemolymph is dumped into a cavity and then drained through the porous layers of the cavity. The hemolymph helps transport nutrients throughout the body. b. Closed Circulatory System are circulatory systems where the blood and the bodily fluids stay in the vascular tubes. These organisms have hemoglobin which is four proteins held together by a Fe or iron molecule. The Blood The human body has 4.2-5.4 million cells per l (micro liter). There are three types of cells in blood. a. RBCs (RedBloodCells): these are the cells that carry oxygen and carbohydrates throughout the body. These are the most common type of blood cells in the body. b. Platelets: these are cells that are no longer functional and are essential in the clotting of blood. c. WBCs(WhiteBloodCells): there are five types of white blood cells.White blood cells or leukocytes are cells of the immune system defending the body against both infectious disease and foreign materials. Several different and diverse types of leukocytes exist, but they are all produced and derived from a multi potent cell in the bone marrow. Leukocytes are found throughout the body, including the blood. Neurophils: these are phagocycotic cells that eat harmful bacteria by engulfing them. Eosynaphils: these cells respond to the presence of proteins. They multiply rapidly in an allergic reaction to fight and overwhelm the unwanted proteins. Basophils: these prevent unnecessary clotting. They prevent clotting by producing heparin. Heparin reduces your ability to clot and increases your ability to break down clots. They also produce histamine. Histamine contracts the affected tissue and pushes the fluids into the neighboring tissues and there by causes swelling. Lympocytes: these responds and attack specific
Narendran Sairam, Rajat Goyal and Steven Kraplin

antigens or proteins. Every antigen has its own antibody so that every time the organism is exposed to the antigen the antibody reacts and annihilates the antigen. Monocytes: these circulate in blood for a day and produce macrophages(largest WBCs) that eat and destroy everything it their path including cells and bacteria. The Heart The heart is an organ that pumps the blood to the body. The blood leads away from the heart in arteries. These tubes are big enough to be seen with a naked eye. As the go deeper and farther away from the heart the size down and become arterioles. These arterioles go into the capillaries where the exchange of nutrients takes place. Then the deoxygenized blood goes into the ventrioles and then in to the veins and then finally back to the heart where the blood is pumped to the lungs for exchange.

LYMPHATIC SYSTEM This system returns fluids to the circulatory system. It originates in ones endpoints like the tips of fingers and toes. Therefore they are present in all parts of ones body. The Circulatory system looses water through the capillaries. Since not all of the water is regained the extra fluids are picked up by the lymphatic system are emptied into veins near the heart. The fluid carried by the lymphatic system is called lymph. The lymph goes through lymph nodes that filer the lymph by using phagocycotic cells and organisms. The lymphocytes are stored in the spleen, the tonsils and the thalamus glands. IMMUNE SYSTEM The immune system give two different kinds of responses: specific and non-specific. Nonspecific response: the infection is kept out of ones body by barriers like the skin. The other pores in ones body are lined with mucus to purify the entering substances. Nonspecific response also occurs at a cellular level. These responses are initiated by phagocycotic cells. NK cells: these are Natural Killer cells that respond to any cells that have been altered. Heal(all metabolization) + redness(RBC) + fluid(capillaries expand)= inflammation Specific response of the immune system to a foreign particles is initiated by antigens. The antibodies bind to the antigen that are usually proteins. There are two types of antibodies: B cells: these cells become plasma cells in the Bone Marrow. This produces a bit of E.R and ribosomes. The plasma cells produce antibodies that are released into the body. T cells: these cells are called T-cells because they are produced in the Thymus glands.There are three types of T-cells:

Narendran Sairam, Rajat Goyal and Steven Kraplin

Cytotoxic: these recognize any cells that have been altered. These have antibodies on the surface that produce perfarin to penetrate the membrane of the antigen. This process slows the reproduction of the pathogens or antibodies. Helper: these cells also recognize the altered cells and signal to intiate the production of the B-cells and the cytotoxic T-cells. These are the cells that are first invaded by HIV. Suppressor: these T-cells stop the production of the T-cells and the B-cells. If a person has an organ transplant then the immune system rejects the organ. This rejection can be reduced in two ways: 1. matching the donors and the recipient: blood is take from both and the Histocompability is consulted. 2. The reduction of the specific immune system.

In the 1769 Edward Jenner observed that women who milked cows did not get small pox. Cow pox exposed people did not get small pox. He was the first person to introduce a vaccination. RESPIRATORY SYSTEM There are some requirements for the exchange of gases: surface must be moist. Gases dissolve in a liquid before entering the membrane by diffusion. The epithelial cells must be extremely thin in order to facilitate diffusion. The surface itself must be thin. The lungs are contained in an air tight and water tight sac called the pleura. The esophagus is the only hole through the diaphragm. As the diaphragm contracts the ribcage expands and the pleura expands allowing the air to rush into the lungs. When the diaphragm expands the ribcage contracts and the pleura contracts pushing the air out of the lungs. THE DIGESTIVE SYSTEM The digestive system performs the following functions; Ingestion Digestion Absorption
Narendran Sairam, Rajat Goyal and Steven Kraplin

Elimination The digestive system follows the tube inside a tube structure

Body wall Coelom

Digestive tract

Ectotherm makes up body wall. Endotherm makes up digestive tract. Mesoderm makes up organs in the coelom. Path of Food Inside an Earthworm Mouth-Pharynx-Esophagus-Crop(storage sac)-Gizzard(muscular organ that grinds food)-IntestineAnus. Path of Food inside a Vertebrate Mouth-Pharynx-Esophagus- Small Intestine- Large Intestine-Anus. Human Digestion Mouth: Mechanical and chemical digestion takes place here. The mechanical digestion occurs with help of the teeth, tongue and jaw muscles. Mammals have four types of teeth: Incisors;Canines;Premolar;Molar. Once the food is ground, saliva and other juices are mixed with the it. Pharynx & Esophagus: Serve as tubes to transport food. The food is taken to your stomach, through the esophagus, by a series of contractions by the tube. This process is called peristalsis and the food, while in the esophagus, is called bolus. Sphincter Muscle: A muscle at the end of the esophagus that relaxes to let the food pass through it into the stomach.
Narendran Sairam, Rajat Goyal and Steven Kraplin

Stomach: The stomach perform these functions: a. mix food with the gastric juices. b. Churns the food. The food comes in through the sphincter muscle and forces the stomach to expand. The gastric glands in the stomach produce HCl (Hydro-Chloric acid) and pepsinogen. The HCl denatures proteins in the food. In the presence of HCl and Pepsigen becomes active and is called pepsin. Pepsin shortens the proteins that are denatured by HCl. When the food leaves the stomach it is called chyme. The chyme passes through the pyloric sphincter at the end of the stomach and goes into the small intestine. Small Intestine: The inside of the small intestine looks like fur since it is covered with tiny hair like projections. These increase the surface area for the absorption of nutrients. The small intestine receives bile and enzymes. The bile reduces the fats into tiny droplets in a process called emulsifying. The enzymes actually break down the fats and proteins. Almost all the nutrients absorbed by the digestive system are absorbed by the small intestine. Large Intestine: The large intestine is considerably larger than the small intestine. The undigested chyme passes through the large intestine. The large intestine absorbs water and sodium from the chyme. Then the useless chyme is eliminated. EXCRETORY SYSTEM(RAJAT GOYAL) 2 primary functions:
Osmoregulation-regulates water Removal of metabolic wastes

Osmosis: Diffusion of water from a high point of concentration to low concentration point. Osmotic Potential: Amount of salt in water

Osmosis occurs in order of the osmotic potential, because the amount of water is the same on both sides of the membrane. Metabolic wastes:
Nitrogen wastes ammonia, urea, uric acid Carbon Dioxide wastes(CO2) wastes Water(H2O) Wastes

Ammonia (NH4) is highly toxic so it is converted into urea or uric acid.

Narendran Sairam, Rajat Goyal and Steven Kraplin

o -

Uric acid is crystallized form of urea

Uric acid is produced by reptiles birds, and insects Animals that live in hot and dry regions need to convert urea into uric acid to conserve water. Endotherms produce their own hear, so therefore they have lots of cells that produce things and therefore endotherms have more waste products. Endotherms deal with more nitrogenous waste.

147. Fat Bodies

Definition
Spaghetti shaped structures that have a bright orange or yellow color, if you have a particularly fat frog, these fat bodies may need to be removed to see the other structures. Usually they are located just on the inside of the abdominal wall. A spider web like membrane that covers many of the organs, you may have to carefully pick it off to get a clear view The largest structure of the body cavity. This brown colored organ is composed of three parts, or lobes. The right lobe, the left anterior lobe, and the left posterior lobe. The liver is not primarily an organ of digestion; it does secrete a digestive juice called bile. Bile is needed for the proper digestion of fats. At the top of the liver, the heart is a triangular structure. The left and right atrium can be found at the top of the heart. A single ventricle located at the bottom of the heart. The large vessel extending out from the heart is the conus arteriosis. Locate the lungs by looking underneath and behind the heart and liver. They are two spongy organs. Lift the lobes of the liver, there will be a small green sac under the liver. This is the gall bladder, which stores bile. Curving from underneath the liver is the stomach. The stomach is the first major site of chemical digestion. Frogs swallow their meals whole. Follow the stomach to where it turns into the small intestine. The pyloric sphincter valve regulates the exit of digested food from the stomach to the small intestine. Leading from the stomach. The first straight portion of the small intestine is called the duodenum; the curled portion is the ileum. The ileum is held together by a membrane called the mesentery. Note the blood vessels running through the mesentery; they will carry absorbed nutrients away from the intestine. Absorption of digested nutrients occurs in the small intestine. As you follow the small intestine down, it will widen into the large intestine. The large intestine is also known as the cloaca in the frog. The cloaca is the last stop before wastes, sperm, or urine exit the frog's body. (The word "cloaca" means sewer) Return to the folds of the mesentery, this dark red spherical object serves as a holding area for blood. Return to the stomach and follow it upward, where it gets smaller is the beginning of the esophagus. The esophagus is the tube that leads from the frogs mouth to the stomach. Open the frogs mouth and find the esophagus, poke your probe into it and see where it leads. 1 of the 3 parts of a frogs heart 1 of the 3 parts of a frogs heart 1 of the 3 parts of a frogs heart The common cavity into which the intestinal, genital, and urinary tracts open in
