Cellular Biology I
Can be used a measure to show how acidic or basic different substances are.
What is pH?
Useable energy inside of a cell is known as this.
What is ATP?
The process that creates two identical daughter cells.
What is mitosis?
This type of bacteria is able to survive in very harsh conditions.
What is archaea?
This organelle is known as the brain of the cell and contains the genetic information.
What is the nucleus?
The building blocks of Nucleic Acids.
What are nucleotides?
This is produced in humans when they undergo anaerobic respiration.
What is lactic acid?
A characteristic which overrules the lesser seen recessive trait.
What is a dominant trait?
The cycle in which viruses become dormant.
What is the lysogenic cycle?
Consists of three particles: protons, neutrons and electrons.
What is an atom?
A type of catalyst that is used to speed up biochemical reactions.
What is an enzyme?
This is a thin flexible film that separates the inside and outside of the cell.
What is the cell membrane?
A chart that allows us to determine the different genotypes that offspring can inherit from their parents
What is a punnett square?
Slime mould is an example of this.
What are fungus-like protists?
This is what happens when liquid water freezes into ice but will not happen to any other material going from liquid to solid.
What is lowering of density?
These molecules are required for our cells to survive and function.
What are macromolecules?
Another form of active transport. This allows cells to move large amounts of substances in or out of the cell.
What is bulk flow (bulk transport)?
Deletion, insertion, duplication, inversion and translocation are all an example of this.
What is a change in chromosome structure?
These are used to make edible capsules for pills, cosmetics bases, dessert & jelly setting agents
What are brown and red algae?
"All living things are composed of one or more cells", "The cell is the simplest unit of life that can carry out all life functions", and "All cells come from other cells" are all postulates of this theory.
What is the cell theory?
Man made enzyme inhibitors that prevent the proper functioning of nerve cells.
What are nerve agents?
A process that is very similar to diffusion but occurs with water molecules.
What is osmosis?
This occurs when an individual has three chromosome number 21s.
What is down syndrome?
This theory states that "That cell that had engulfed the prokaryote to make mitochondria then also engulfed a cyanobacterium which became a chloroplast"
What is the endosymbiosis theory?
This process was made more efficient thanks to scientists discovery of archaea.
What is PCR?
