Biochemistry
This type of cell has a cell wall, flagella, and lacks a nucleus.
What is a prokaryotic cell?
The balanced equation for this metabolic process reads as follows: C6H12O6 + 6O2 ---> 6CO2 + 6H20 +ATP
What is cellular respiration?
This enzyme involved with DNA replication is required to break hydrogen bonds between strands.
What is helicase?
These anatomical structures, such as the forelimbs found in tetrapods, indicate common ancestry between species.
What are homologous structures?.
This level of protein structure is determined by how the R-groups interact between two polypeptide chains.
What is quarternary structure?
This type of passive transport moves water molecules across the membrane through aquaporins.
What is osmosis?
These fragments form on the lagging strand of the replication fork during DNA replication.
What are Okazaki fragments?
This macromolecule contains "many sugars", including cellulose and chitin.
What is a polysaccharide
This type of molecule binds to receptors to initiate a signal transduction pathway.
What is a ligand?
This type of trait is capable of skipping generations, and affects males more than females
What is X-linked recessive?
This structure is used in oxidative phosphorylation to catalyze the synthesis of ADP and inorganic phosphate.
What is ATP synthase?
This method of prokaryotic gene regulation is "switched on" when a certain stimulus such as lactose is present.
What is an inducible operon?
This occurs when populations become geographically isolated, leading to reproductive isolation and divergence of species.
What is allopatric speciation?
This describes when a substrate binds to a site other than the active site to prevent enzyme catalysis.
What is allosteric inhibition?
This term best describes a plant cell when placed in a hypotonic solution.
What is turgid?
Non-cyclic photophosphorylation in Photosystem I produces both ATP and this additional reduced molecule needed for the Calvin cycle.
What is NADPH?
