A
exocytosis is a ______ transport process
What is active?
DNA is replicated during the ______ phase of the cell cycle
What is "S" cycle?
The carried mediated transport system that uses ATPs in order to move substances from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration is called:
What is Active Transport?
Most Somatic cells spend most of their time in this phase.
What is interphase
A normal variation of a gene
What is Allele?
A cell will swell, and likely burst, if it is placed in a(n) _____________ solution
What is hypotonic?
Process of converting mRNA to protein
What is translation?
A form of cell division in which a cell divides once and produces two genetically identical daughter cells
What is Mitosis?
centromeres divide in two. Spindle fibers pull sister chromatids to opposite poles of cell. Each pole now has an identical set of genes. Name this phase of mitosis.
What is Anaphase?
Carries out the instructions in DNA to assemble proteins
What is RNA?
Pinocytosis is a type of ___________.
What is endocytosis?
A carrier mediated transport mechanism that does not use ATP, but needs a protein to help the solute to move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration is called:
What is facilitated diffusion?
The mRNA start codon, AUG, matches up with a tRNA anticodon, __________.
What is "UAC"?
carries the A.A Methionine
the formation of mRNA from DNA
What is Transcription?
Division of the cytoplasm into two cells.
What is cytokinesis?
Contains all the triplets needed to code for a specific polypeptide
What is a gene?
A red blood cell (RBC) is placed in an unknown solution and shrivels/shrinks. What solution was the cell dropped in?
What is hypertonic?
A complex of DNA and protein carrying the genetic material of a cell’s nucleus
Normally there are 46
What is Chromosome/s?
A 3-base sequence in mRNA is called.
Also the expression of the Genetic Code.
What is codons?
binds a free amino acid in the cytosol and delivers it to the ribosome to be added to a growing protein chain
What is tRNA?
_______ contains ribosomes and are involved
with protein synthesis
What is rough endoplasmic reticulum?
Which of the following cell organelles produces secretory vesicles?
What is Golgi Apparatus
A cell can generate multiple proteins from a single gene.
What is Alternative splicing?
A sequence of 3 DNA nucleotides that stands for 1 amino acid is called
What is base triplet?
Segments that are removed before translation
What is exons?
