Biochemistry
A straight chain (linear sequence) of amino acids in a polypeptide.
What is primary protein structure?
The products of the light reactions of photosynthesis that are utilized in the Calvin cycle.
What are NADPH and ATP?
These serve as starting points for DNA polymerase III during replication.
What are primers?
The ability of a living organism to adjust to changing environmental conditions by regulating their internal processes.
What is homeostasis?
The number of individuals of the same species that occupy a given area at a given time.
What is population density?
Polysaccharide that contains
What is cellulose?
The stroma is the location of this process.
What is the Calvin Cycle?
Hydrogen bonding is responsible for this in DNA.
What is complementary base pairing?
Mechanism that aims to restore changes that take the body too far from homeostasis.
What is negative feedback?
A population whose growth is influenced by births, deaths, and migration is described as:
endangered. 4. geometric.
open. 5. exponential.
closed.
2. What is open growth?
A chemical reaction that joins two molecules with the loss of a molecule of water.
What is a condensation reaction?
The process of splitting a molecule of water using energy from sunlight.
What is photolysis?
The basic unit for polypeptide chains.
What is an amino acid?
The microscopic structural and functional unit of the kidney.
What is the nephron?
A population that grows rapidly during breeding season, then declines through the year until next breeding season, exhibits:
linear growth. 4. logistic growth.
geometric growth. 5. theoretical growth.
exponential growth.
What is logistic growth?
In a chemical reaction, the use of a catalyst results in a decrease in this type of energy.
What is activation?
The final electron acceptor of the ETC in cellular respiration.
The is oxygen?
When an RNA primer is not released during replication from the template strand, this enzyme may be nonfunctional.
What is DNA Polymerase III?
Structure that is found immediately following the Bowman's Capsule.
What is the proximal convoluted tubule?
This growth model predicts a slowing of growth as a population reaches its carrying capacity.
What is logistic growth model?
Amoeba engulf solid particles that can not be absorbed otherwise by using this process.
What is phagocytosis?
Product of lactate fermentation
What is NAD+?
Post transcriptional modification of mRNA by the removal of introns due to this complex.
What is the spliceosome?
Hormone that causes the kidneys to increase water absorption.
What is anti diuretic hormone?
An ecological relationship between two species, where one species benefits and the other is harmed is known as this.
What is parasitism?
