Photosynthesis
The rate of photosynthesis varies across different wavelengths of light
What is the photosynthetic action spectrum
A protein that phosphorylates other proteins.
what is a dominant gene
The main enzyme in DNA replication, can synthesize DNA but needs a template to do so.
What is DNA polymerase
any cell in the body of a multicellular organism that is not a reproductive cell
What are somatic cells
The linear movement of electrons through the photosynthetic electron transport chain.
What is a noncyclic electron flow
A protein that controls when and how genes are turned on and off
what is a transcription factor
the law stating that each pair of alleles (for different characters) are packages into gametes separately during meiosis
What is the law of independent assortment
The enzyme that removes supercoils caused by helicase unwinding, and also cuts and wraps DNA to attach
What is topoisomerase
The way to differentiate meiosis I and meiosis II
A reaction that occurs involving Rubisco and O2 and results in the loss of fixed carbon as Co2, reducing the amount of photosynthates formed.
What is photorespiration?
a sequence of signaling pathway events where one enzyme phosphorylates another, causing a chain reaction leading to the phosphorylation of thousands of proteins
What is a phosphorylation cascade
Genes that are located on the X chromosome
What are X-linked genes
The strand in which DNA primate makes one RNA primer and the DNA polymerase attached nucleotides to the 3’ end
What is the leading strand
The exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes in meiosis
What is crossing over
The first protein complex in the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis. It uses light molecules to split water molecules to produce oxygen.
What is Photosysystem II
specialized proteins with the ability to bind the nucleotides GTP and GDP to activate a protein
What are G proteins
If two tongue-rollers have a non-tongue-rolling daughter, what genotype must they be?
What is the area in which DNA replication begins. This is an AT-rich area that is recognized by specific proteins because it has a unique sequence of nucleotides.
what is the origin of replication
the place where sister chromosomes are connected
What is the centromere
A group of pigments that are physically arranged together in a thylakoids membrane such that they can carry out the light absorption reactions And reduction of a primary electron acceptor.
What is a photosystem
cell surface proteins that help cells communicate with each other and perform many important functions, including cell division, metabolism, and survival
What are receptor tyrosine kinases
If a normal (non-tongue-roller) has children with a (mutant afflicted) heterozygous tongue-roller, what ratios of genotypes and phenotypes would be expected?
1 roller : 1 non-roller (phenotypes)
1 Rr : 1 rr (genotypes)
Individual pieces of a lagging strand compost of an RNA primer and a stretch of newly synthesized DNA.
What is an Okazaki fragment
Name all the stages of mitosis and what happens during them
Interphase - chromosomes replicate
prophase - chromosomes start to condense
metaphase - align in the middle of the cell
anaphase - sister chromatids are separated
telophase - daughter cells start to form
