Order the biological levels of organization below from least complex to most complex:
Population, Cell, Atom, Macromolecule, Organism, Tissue, Community, Organelle, Ecosystem
Atom, Macromolecule, Organelle, Cell, Tissue, Organism, Population, Community, Ecosystem
DNApol= DNA Replication; not involved in gene expression
RNApol= Transcription & gene expression
Name the two main functions of carbohydrates AND give examples of each
Structural: Cellulose, Chitin, Peptidoglycan
What is the "Central Dogma of Molecular Biology" and which 2 primary events does it entail?
The process of transcribing genetic information in a gene into mRNA & translating the mRNA into a protein
Transcription & Translation
Name 2 organelles within the endomembrane system AND their function
Possibilities: Rough ER, Smooth ER, Golgi, Lysosomes
3 min time limit
Prophase, metaphase, anaphase telophase, cytokinesis
If a genome is 23% Adenine, what percent of that same genome constitutes Guanine?
Calculator allowed
A= 23; T= 23-> 46% AT
100-46= 54% GC
54/2= 27% Cytosine, 27% Guanine
What is the difference between exergonic & endergonic reactions?
How do these correlate with anabolism & catabolism?
Exergonic- spontaneous, release energy; breaking larger, high energy reactants down= catabolism
Endergonic- nonspontaneous, require energy; building larger, high energy products from lower energy reactants= anabolism
DRAW the 4 levels of protein structure on the board, with descriptions
3 minute time limitPrimary- single, linear polypeptide chain; amino acids with only peptide bonds
Secondary- Alpha helix or beta sheet formation; hydrogen bonding along the carbon backbone
Tertiary- Secondary forces & other types of bonds; formed globular protein
Quaternary- Multi-subunit protein
CLASS WILD WOMBAT CARD!
All of you must complete this task.
My offspring hath requested you be made to do a Fortnite dance. So, I hope you all brushed your teeth this morning...
Cuz it's time to FLOSS.
