Macromolecules
Who is Rosalind Franklin?
Chemists use this technique to separate components of a mixture
What is chromatography?
An object being accelerated undergoes a net force, with the direction of the net force the same as the direction of the acceleration.
What is newton's second law?
RPM stands for this
Rotations per minute
The amount of time in ultracentrifuge to separate different types of organelle.
What is 1 hour?
What are amino acids?
A static solid, liquid or gel. The solvent carries the soluble
What is the stationary phase?
This gives the centrifuge the rotation motion
What is motor?
This process separates particles based on their density under the influence of gravitational forces.
What is sedimentation?
The organ that hepatocytes are found in.
What is the liver?
Long chains made up of repeating molecular subunits or building blocks called monomers.
What are Polymers?
What is relative affinity?
The rotating unit of the centrifuge. It has holes drilled in at an angle which acts as the space for placing tubes
What is the rotor?
The force on a body moving in a circle that points inwards toward the point around which the object moves.
What is Centripetal force?
A cell organelle that processes and packages proteins and lipids for use inside and outside the cell
What is the golgi apparatus?
Molecules made up of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, arranged in the form of sugars or starches
What are carbohydrates?
Procedure that is based on differences in the potential between various ions
Ion Exchange Chromatography
A specialized technique used to spin samples at exceptionally high speeds. This is used to characterize low- molecular weight polymers up to multi-mega Dalton protein complexes and organelles
What is ultracentrifugation?
For a rotating body the centripetal and centrifugal forces are ______ in magnitude
Equal
This organelle is the powerhouse of the cell generating ATP for cells to use as energy. This s
What is the mitochondria?
The starting codon for all mRNA
AUG-methionine
The time taken for a particular component within the sample mixture to travel through the column
Retention time
Process by which particles of different densities or sizes in suspension will sendiment at different rates. Larger and denser particles will sediment faster. This is commonly used for harvesting cells or on tissue.
What is differential centrifugation?
The point around which the samples will accelerate in the circle.
What is axis?
The molecular formula for sucrose is
C12H22O11
