DNA Replication
This is the direction that DNA is synthesized.
What is 5’ to 3’
This is the monomer of a carbohydrate.
What is a monosaccharid?
This is when a cell signals for itself to die.
What is Apoptosis?
This chart helps in finding the likeliness and offspring recieves a genotype.
What is a Punnett Square?
This property of water that says that it can dissolve more substances than any other liquid.
What is the universal solvent?
This enzyme breaks the hydrogen bonds between base pairs.
What is Helicase?
Elements included in the acronym CHONPS
What is Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Sulfur?
These are released by signaling cells and upon binding to a receptor, triggers a biological response.
What is a ligand?
These are different versions of a gene.
What is alleles?
This is a drastic reduction in a population, leading to loss of genetic diversity.
What is a population bottleneck?
DNA replication is this, because is pairs an old strand with a newly synthesized one.
What is a semi-conservative process?
This base is only in RNA, and binds with Adenine.
What is Uracil?
This is when the cell signals itself.
What is Autocrine signaling?
This type of dominance has heterozygous offspring with a blend of parental phenotypes.
What is incomplete dominance?
This is the bases in the start codon in mRNA.
What is AUG.
This enzyme relaxes supercoiled DNA.
What is topoisomerase
This sugar that is in RNA.
What is ribose?
This is a large surface protein receptor that plays a crucial role in cell signaling.
What is G Coupled Proteins?
Location of a specific gene on a chromosome.
What is a loci (locus)?
This is what is the root words echino- and echin- mean.
What is Spiny?
These proteins keep DNA uncoiled during DNA replication.
What is single stranded binding proteins?
This bond links together nucleotides in Nucleic Acids, and forms the sugar-phosphate backbone.
What are phosphodiester bonds.
Cytoplasmic channels that connect plant cells for Juxtacrine signaling.
What is plasmodesmata
This type of DNA that is passed down from your mother.
What is mitochondrial DNA?
This is what it’s called when water splits during Photosynthesis.
What is photolysis?
