BB 451/551 Exam 1 Name______________________________ Please note that this is a practice exam. The exam you take will have the same instructions, so you may want to familiarize yourself with these instructions before going to your exam. Please note that the topics for exams vary from one exam to another, so you may well see questions here that don’t relate to what has been talked about this year in class. General Instructions: This exam is worth 100 points total. Read the instructions for each question carefully. If you do not understand the instructions for any section of the exam, raise your hand. Do not spend too much time on any one question. Do not use abbreviations for names of compounds or enzymes that we have not used in class. You may, however, use any abbreviations that have been used by me in class. No one will be permitted to work on the exam longer than 50 minutes. Budget your time appropriately. Section 1 __________ Section 2 __________ Section 3 __________ Total __________ Do not open the exam until you are instructed to begin BB 451/551 Exam #1, Page 1 of 6 Section I: (20 points total) The statements in this section can be completed by any of the lettered responses following it. Each statement may have more than one answer that is correct, one answer that is correct, or no answers that are correct. Students should clearly circle only those responses that complete the sentence to make a correct statement. Points will be awarded for each circled response that makes a correct statement and for each uncircled response that makes an incorrect statement. For example, the practice question below has three correct answers (b,c,d). You would receive four points if you circled ‘b’,’c’, and ‘d’. You would receive one point if you circled ‘a’ and ‘b’. You would receive no points if you circled only ‘a’. If we have uncertainty about whether or not an answer is marked, it will automatically be counted as a wrongly answered question. Be clear in your markings. Practice question #A: Oregon State University A. is a Bolivian factory B. is located in Corvallis, Oregon C. has a mascot named Benny Beaver D. has students from all over the world. Answers that should be circled are in BLUE BOLD 1. With respect to the reaction catalyzed by the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, A. Decarboxylation occurs prior to oxidation B. NADH is produced by transfer of electrons form FADH2 to NAD+ C. Sulfurs assist by carrying electrons D. A thioester bond is formed 2. With respect to metabolic control, A. Tight coupling will destroy it B. Shortage of ATP will stop complex V (ATP synthase) C. The citric acid cycle will stop if the electron transport system stops D. The proton gradient will increase as oxygen decreases 3. With respect to the lipid bilayer of cells, A. Unsaturated fatty acids increase the Tm B. Cholesterol broadens the range over which Tm is measured C. Transverse diffusion rarely occurs spontaneously D. Lateral diffusion requires enzymes called flipases 4. With respect to transmission of nerve signals, A. ATP is the ultimate energy source for the Na+/K+ gradient formation B. Movement of a neurotransmitter across the synaptic cleft stimulates release + of K ions C. ATPase pumps move sodium in and potassium out D. Ions only travel one way across the membrane BB 451/551 Exam #1, Page 2 of 6 5. In the Q cycle, A. Electrons are moving from coenzyme Q through Complex III to cytochrome C B. Incoming coenzyme Q donates one electron to cytochrome C and one to another coenzyme Q C. Protons are pumped into the mitochondrial matrix D. Oxygen is the electron acceptor Section II: (50 points total) Each sentence below in this section is missing a word or phrase to complete it. Fill in the blank as appropriate to complete the sentence with a correct statement. Each correctly filled in blank below will be awarded two points. 1.

What is the name of the linear 30 intermediate in cholesterol biosynthesis? squalene Section III: (30 points total) Matching. Each term on the left has a phrase or term on the right which best describes or matches it. Place the letter of the term/phrase on the right in the blank before the term on the left that it best matches. Only one letter is appropriate in the blank. Note that there are more terms on the right than there are blanks, so not every term on the right has a best match. Terms on the right may be used once, more than once, or not at all. If we cannot read your writing or if you put two letters in any blank on the left, your answer will be counted wrong automatically. Each correctly matched pair is worth two points. __F__ 1.
