Cell Biology
Mitochondria are responsible for producing the majority of the cell's
What is ATP?
This is the biotech version of selective breeding.
What is cloning or recombinant DNA?
A normal female would have this number of chromosomes in their karyotype
What is 46?
To build a cladogram, this type of evidence gives the most accurate information.
What is DNA sequence information?
These conditions impact how fast an enzyme will work
What are environmental conditions (pH, temperature, etc)?
In a single-celled organism, these help maintain the organism's homeostasis
What are organelles?
This process allows for cross pollination in plants
What is meiosis?
This is the difference in nucleotides between mRNA and DNA
What is U instead of T?
In a cladogram, the common ancestor is found at this
What is a node?
If a peptide has 5 amino acids, it will have this number of nucleotides
What is 15
These molecules are found in the nucleus of a cell
What are DNA/chromosomes?
These components a DNA template, enzymes that are thermostable and subunits with A, G, T, and C bases are required for this technique.
What is PCR, polymerase chain reaction?
The difference in chromosomes between a body cell and a gamete
What is body cell diploid, vs. haploid?
This is the relationship between DNA changes and evolutionary relationships
What is the fewer DNA differences, the more closely related evolutionarily.
A chemical reaction speeds up. This is due to
What is an enzyme?
The process by which cells specialize in function
What is differentiation?
The branch of biology that deals with the environmental impact on gene expression.
What is epigenetics?
All cells in an organism share the same
What is DNA/genes?
This happens to an enzyme when the temperature exceeds the normal range
What is denature/shape changes?
This type of microscope would be used to study viruses
What are electron microscopes?
Gel electrophoresis separates DNA by these two properties
What is charge and size?
Cells that grow abnormally are indicative of this condition
What is cancer
A starch solution turns orange when treated with Benedict's solution. How can this happen?
The starch solution was treated with an enzyme that broke it down into glucose
