Potpourri
100
These are the "cleanup crews" of the cell, breaking down old and damaged cell parts
What are lysosomes
100
This is the movement of water from an area of high concentration to low concentration
What is osmosis
100
This microorganism invades its host by injecting its DNA into the host cell
What are viruses
100
These are the base pairs for DNA
What are Adenine-Thymine and Guanine-Cytosine
100
These speed up chemical reactions
What are enzymes
200
This structure produces ribosomes
What is the nucleolus
200
This is the difference between active transport and passive transport
What is energy- active transport requires energy to move from low concentration to high concentration
200
These organisms can be used in the production of milk, cheese, and yogurt
What are bacteria
200
The resulting strand of mRNA to the following DNA sequence: ATTACG
What is UAAUGC
200
These organisms are able to make their own food
What are autotrophs
300
These package proteins and transport them throughout the cell (2 organelles)
What are golgi bodies and the endoplasmic reticulum
300
This is a form of passive transport for molecules that are too large to pass through the cell membrane on their own
What is facilitated diffusion? (through protein channels in the lipid bilayer)
300
These drugs are used to kill bacteria; while these are used to prevent viral infections
What are antibiotics and vaccines (antibiotics don't work on viruses b/c the virus has invaded your own cells)
300
These are the building blocks of proteins that form from every triplet (groups of 3 nucleotides) example: AGC= uracil
What are amino acids
300
This organelle is present in autotrophs that allows them to make their own food
What are chloroplasts
400
The structures that prokaryotes and eukaryotes share...
What are ribosomes and DNA
400
These are the products of photosynthesis
What are glucose and oxygen (carbon dioxide and water are the reactants)
400
This is the mechansim by which genes are transferred from one organism to another through viruses
What are viral vectors
400
This is the process by which mRNA copies the DNA in the nucleus and moves into the cytoplasm to make proteins
What is transcription
400
The variable that changes in an experiment vs. the variable that changes in response to it
What is the independent variable and the dependent variable
500
These 3 structures differentiate plant cells from animal cells
What are cell wall, large central vacuole and chloroplasts
500
These are the reactants and products of respiration
What are glucose and oxygen as the reactants and carbon dioxide and water as the products
500
Recombinant DNA occurs by this process:
What is splicing the desired gene sequence with restriction enzymes, then splicing a corresponding sequence in a plasmid; inserting the desired gene sequence into the plasmid and the plasmid then produces the gene.
500
This is the process of translation
What is the ribosome rolls along the mRNA and amino acids are attached to the corresponding triplets. The amino acids are then joined together to form proteins
500
This is an example of a genetically modified organism
