what is the plasma membrane/ phospholipid bilayer?
these indicate mass number
what are protons and neurons?
regulates the turning on and off of a gene
what is the operon?
released when the body needs them at a certain area
what are local regulators?
difference between the smooth and cardiac muscle
what are the striation presences in cardiac muscles?
allows cells to be seen up close especially with cell fragmentation
what is a microscope?
these indicate atomic number
what are protons?
after the bending protein folds the top half of the operon to match the transcribing proteins to the activators, what protein regulates which genes are expressed?
what are regulatory genes?
released when the entire body needs them, especially in fight or flight
what are hormones?
overarching function of the nervous system?
what is to send and receive signals efficiently?
what are synapses?
these are the backbones of carbohydrates
what are monosaccharides?
this results from RNA splicing and what is it's function?
what is mRNA that codes for gene transcription and activates the process?
these are the 2 parts of the nervous system and what their overarching function is
what are the CNS- brain & spinal cord to send messages up and down the body, and the PNS- all nerves that send messages/signals throughout the body?
name examples of important hormones
what are insulin, thyroid, estrogen, testosterone, etc.?
name the parts of an axon

these are the basic units of lipids
the final overall outcome of gene transcription
what are proteins/new structures?
name the main and supporting hormone release organs
what are the hypothalamus and pituitary/anterior glands?
the function of secondary messengers such as cAMP
what is to amplify and make signals stronger?
structures within the cell membrane that give it support and allow for movement (3 terms)
what are the actin, myosin- microfilaments cilia or flagellum?
these are the basic units of nucleic acids
what are nucleotides [bases]?
true or false: start and stop codons on the introns and exons are not important
what is false?
in this organ system, myosin slides over the actin to cause contraction according to the sliding-filament model and reverts back to a relaxed state. it is encompassed in the skeletal system that either has an endoskeleton, exoskeleton, or hydrostatic skeleton.
what is the muscle system?
theory stating that prokaryotic cells were once engulfed by eukaryotic cells relative to the mitochondria and chloroplasts formation
endosymbiont theory
