Stem Cells or Cancer
Memory device used to evaluate signs of melanoma
ABCDE Rule
This specific property of the phospholipid "head" results in them facing outwards while their "tails" stay with other tails as they make up the cell membrane
What is hydrophilic?
The totality of an organism's chemical reactions
What is metabolism?
Present in both Cellular Respiration and Photosynthesis, this process requires a certain negatively charged particle to be dropped off at the start
What is the Electron Transport Chain?
Used for long distance signaling in both plants and animal cells
What are hormones?
Differentiated Adult Cells reprogrammed to becoming stem cells
What are induced pluripotent stem cells?
Not able to diffuse through the membrane, these molecules need to travel through pump and often against their concentration gradient
What are ions?
What is activation energy?
An organism that is able to form organic substances from simple inorganic substances such as carbon dioxide
What is an autotroph?
Cell junction between Plant cells and part of local signaling
What is plasmodesmata?
Often associated with Stage 3, this is when the cancer has spread or is spreading after breaking away from the tumor
What is metastasis?
This disease is partially caused by the malfunctioning of a transport protein
Cystic Fibrosis
Structurally similar to RNA and consisting of ribose, adenine, and three phosphate groups
What is ATP?
Opening in the leaf through which CO2 and O2 diffuse in and out
What is the stomata?
The process of the cell collapsing on itself during apoptosis
What is blebbing?
Mutations in this gene prevent cell cycle suppression
What is the p53 gene?
The main mechanism of endocytosis
What are vesicles?
Energy from this type of reaction is stored in the bond between ADP and a phosphate group
What is catabolic?
This step is present in both Aerobic and Anaerobic processes
What is Glycolysis?
What is 3 million?
Process that produces one stem cell and one differentiated cell that also maintains the "immortal" DNA strand of stem cells
What is Asymmetric Cell Division?
The voltage difference across a membrane
What is Membrane Potential?
This prevents a cell from wasting chemical resources by synthesizing an end product that shuts down the pathway before more product than needed can be made
What is feedback inhibition?
Part of the Light Reaction and the complex responsible for splitting water
What is Photosystem 2?
The two ways that hormones are transported through a plant organism
What are xylem and Phloem?
