Miscellaneous
T cells develop in this gland.
What is the thymus?
Adenine and guanine are this kind of nucleic acid base.
What are purines?
What is class I MHC?
This enzyme responsible for protein synthesis is found in all cellular organisms.
What is a ribosome?
Mannitol salt agar restricts the growth of non-halophilic organisms, which makes it an example of this kind of medium.
What is a selective medium?
Antibody detection of pathogens is the defining characteristic of this kind of test.
What is serological?
These kinds of bonds are formed between atoms with similar electronegativity.
What are non-polar covalent bonds?
Cells that are infected by viruses produce this signalling molecule to warn other cells.
What is interferon?
Transmembrane proteins are typically made in this organelle.
What is the rough ER?
A drug with a high this will have high efficacy and low toxicity.
What is the therapeutic index?
This multi-tasking process is only possible in cells without a membrane-bound nucleus.
What is co-transcriptional translation?
These two macronutrients bind covalently to form the hydrophobic fatty acid chains in phospholipids.
What are carbon and hydrogen?
These descendants of B cells secrete IgG antibodies.
What are plasma cells?
These dense, thick bacterial structures are a major virulence factor, since they can protect against phagocytosis.
What are capsules?
This process is why an autoclave is more effective at sterilizing than a hot air oven.
What is coagulation?
An RNA virus will need to pack one of these to copy its genome.
What is RNA-dependent RNA polymerase?
A cell placed in this type of solution would shrivel up as all the water in its cytoplasm moves out.
What is hypertonic?
This cascading system in the blood results in a protein that pokes holes in bacterial membranes.
What is the complement system?
This sugar in DNA has one fewer oxygen atom than its RNA counterpart.
What is deoxyribose?
These are the four reagents involved in Gram staining.
What are crystal violet, iodine, alcohol/acetone/decolorizer, and safranin?
This property of a microscope describes the smallest possible objects that can be clearly viewed.
What is resolution?
This number describes how much more acidic a solution of pH 10 is compared to a solution of pH 7.
What is 0.001X ?
A person with type B- blood will make antibodies to these proteins.
What are A and Rh?
This tough protein is produced by skin cells to form a strong, water repellent barrier.
What is keratin?
What is unethical?
