100

The macromolecule that composes a cell membrane

What is a Lipid (Phospholipid)?

100
A diverse group of hydrophobic molecules, including fats, oils, and phospholipids.

What are lipids?

100

The movement of molecules through a cell membrane without energy input.

What is Passive Diffusion?

100

This measures how well cells can take up foreign DNA.

What is Transformation Efficiency?
100

Proteins.

What is the answer to everything?

200

The head of a phospholipid. This word also means water "loving"

What is Hydrophillic?

200

A double layer of phospholipids that form the basic structure of cell membranes.

What is the phospholipid bilayer? (Lipid bilayer)
200

What happened over time when the iodine and starch were mixed in lab.

What is Diffusion?

200
Proteins that are embedded in the cell membrane, spanning its entire width.

What are integral proteins?

200

Where Mr. Cowles has done his undergraduate degree.

What is Gonzaga University?

300

The tail of a phospholipid. This also means water "fearing"

What is hydrophobic?

300

A state in which bacterial cells take up foreign DNA from their environment. This could have good or bad ramifications.

What is Cell Competency?

300

Transport of molecules across a membrane using proteins without energy input, following the concentration gradient.

What is Passive Facilitated Diffusion?

300

Proteins that are attached to the surface of the cell membrane, not embedded in the phospholipid bilayer.

What are Channel Proteins?

300

The names of Mr. Shay's daughters.

Whos is Finley and Marlow?

400

A molecule with a partial electrical charge due to differences in electronegativity.

What is Polar?

400

The movement of genetic material from one bacteria to another. Hint: Frederick Griffiths mouse experiment.

What is horizontal gene transfer?

400

The transport of molecules across a membrane using proteins and energy (ATP) against a concentration gradient.

What is Active Facilitated Diffusion?

400
Proteins attached to the surface of the cell membrane, not embedded in the lipid bilayer.

What are Peripheral proteins?

400

This sci-fi film has grossed the most money of all time.

What is Avatar?
500

A molecule with no charge distribution. In other words, it does not mix well with water.

What is Non-Polar?

500

The movement of genetic material from one bacteria to another. Hint: Frederick Griffiths mouse experiment.

What is Horizontal Gene transfer?

500

A method used in molecular biology to induce bacterial cells to take up DNA by exposing them to a sudden temperature increase.

What is Heat Shock?

500

The proteins that actively move ions across the membrane against a concentration gradient.

What are Protein Pumps?

500

A programmed cell death.

What is Apoptosis?
