Flashcards

non coding dna 

only 1.5% in human genome codes for protein or RNA, the rest is pseudogenes or repetitive dna of unknown functio

key elements in life history

3.5 billion years ago first prokaryotes

1.8 billion first eukaryotes

1.2 billion first multicellular eukaryote

535 million years ago, increase of animal diversity

500 million colonisation of lanf by plants and fung

virus

small nucleic acid genome enclosed in a protein capsid and sometimes in a viral envelop

retrovirus

use reverse transkriptase to copy their rna genome into host dna as a proviru

viroids

prions

naked rna molecules that infect plangts and disrupt growth

slow acting infectious proteins cause brain desease in mammal

obligate aerobes

obligate anaerobes

facultative anaerobes

prokaryotes require o2

are posioned by o2

can survice with or without o2

exotoxins

endotoxins

proteins secreted by organisms, causes deseases

lipopolysaccharide released if bacteria dies and cell wall breaks down, causes desease

endocrine signals

paracrine s

autocrine s

 

hormones, secreted into extracellular fluid

act on neighboring cells

act on secreting cell itself

neurotransmitter 

neurohormones

pheromones

act locally

act trough body

released into the environmen

herbivores

carnivores

omnivores

eat plants

eat other animals

eat bot

stages of food processing

eating, ingestion

digestion, enzymatic breakdown of large molecules

absorption, uptake of nutritients by cell

elimination, passage of undigested material out of body

gastrovascular cavity 

alimentary canal 

 

single opening mouth which leads inside the organism

tube which leads trough animal, where different areas absorp the food in stepwise fashion.

nutrition regulation  

food in the alimentary canal triggers nerves

avaiability of glucose is regulated by insulin and glucagon which control synthesis of glycogen

leptin and insulin regulate appetit

open 

closed circulatory system

organs bathed directly in hemolymphe

blood circulates in a network of pumps and vessels

blood direction

atrium,  ventrikel, arteries, capillares

 capillares, veins, atrium, ventricel 

cardiac cycle 

systole, contraction 

diastole, relaxation

heartbeat origin 

sinoatrial node, right atrium 

trigger atrial contraction 

goes to atrioventricular node 

conducted along bundle branches and purkinje fibers 

triggers ventricular contraction
