Molecules, Genes, Cells, and Organisms
A structure that prokaryotic cells do not have.
What is a nucleus?
Characteristic identified with forward scatter (FSC) in flow cytometry.
What is the size of the cell?
A unit that consists of protons, electrons, neutrons, and a nucleus.
Amino acids that would become embedded within a membrane.
What are non polar amino acids?
The combination of DNA and protein in the nucleus.
What is chromatin?
The most common molecule used by cells to capture, store, and transfer energy.
What is ATP?
A technique that generates images of specific planes across your sample and allows for 3D reconstruction.
What is confocal fluorescence microscopy?
It is double stranded, has A:T and G:C base pairs, and contains a deoxyribose sugar.
What is DNA?
Amino acid that creates kinks in protein chains.
What is proline?
The site of the electron transport chain.
What is the inner mitochondrial membrane?
The largest organelle of animal cells.
What is the nucleus?
The solution used in density gradient centrifugation.
What is dehydration synthesis?
The amino acid that generates the disulfide bond.
What is cysteine?
The part of the chloroplast that serves as the site for light reaction.
What is the thylakoid?
Structures made up of cholesterol, transmembrane proteins, hydrophobic fatty acyl chains, and hydrophilic head groups.
What are phospholipid bilayers?
A fluorescent protein used to tag proteins of interest in cells.
What is GFP?
The strongest type of bond.
The type of bond that stabilizes the alpha helix.
What are hydrogen bonds?
The part of the chloroplast that serves as the site for Calvin cycle.
A characteristic that eukaryotic cells do not have.
What is a cell wall?
The three most abundant molecules in a cell.
What is water, protein, and RNA?
Lysine, Methionine, Tryptophan, Valine, Phenylalanine, Isoleucine, Leucine, Threonine, and Histidine.
What are the 9 essential amino acids?
The type of vesicle that results after small material is "drunk" from outside the cell.
What is an endosome?
