300
These short, hairlike projections are made of microtubules.
What are cilia?
400
These polymers contain two actin chains.
What are microfilaments?
400
The signaling process by which a G protein relays information to an intracellular signaling agent.

400
A measure of an atom’s attraction for electrons.
What is electronegativity?
400
These are stacks of flat, disk-like sacs inside of the chloroplast.
