Bacterial Biology █ BRIAN D. HOYLE An understanding of the fundamentals of bacterial biology is critical to bacteriologists and other forensic investigators attempting to identify potential biogenic pathogens that may be exploited as agents in biological warfare or by bioterrorists. Fundamentals of Bacterial Biology Bacteria are one-celled prokaryotic organisms that lack a true nucleus (i.e.‚ a nucleus defined by a membrane). Bacteria maintain their genetic material‚ deoxyribonucleic

Biology Notes Genetics Trait - distinguishing characters or phenotypic features of an individual. (e.g. Blue eyes‚ black hair‚ etc.) Purebreed - having descended from ancestors of a distinct type or breed. Purebreed organisms in a given species or variety all share similar traits. (e.g. Purebred dog.) P Generation - Designation given to the parent generation. F1 and F2 generation - First and second filial generation. First Filial Generation - offspring from the cross of the P generation.

Biology 1500 Name: Chapter 10 Assignment 1. What is Genetics? The study of the way in which an individual’s traits are transmitted from one generation to the next. 2. What is heredity? Heredity is the tendency for traits to be passed from parent to offspring. 3. Why did Gregor Mendel choose garden peas to student for his experiments? Mendel chose to work with the garden pea because several of its characteristics made it easy to work with: many varieties were available‚ he knew

FRQ #3 a) The flow of genetic information from DNA to protein in eukaryotic cells is called the central dogma of biology. The role of RNA in protein synthesis is extremely important as protein synthesis could not occur without RNA. Three forms of RNA exist solely to create proteins. Through a process known as translation‚ RNA constructs the proteins necessary to sustain life. Spliceosomes Process pre-mRNA by splicing out intronic nucleic acids producing mRNA which is then translated to protein

What is the aim of the study? [1 mark] The aim of this study is to modify knowledge of genes and enzymes for carotenoid biosynthesis in plant and also put some light on the challenges that are currently being faced by plant developmental biology and biotechnology. What is the author’s hypothesis? Was it supported or refuted by their research? [2 marks] The author’s hypothesis was that‚ “ Carotenoids protect photosynthetic organisms against potentially harmful photooxidative processes

Cycles in Biology Cycles in biology play a fundamental role in the world that we live in. Cycles occur all around and inside of us in many different forms‚ from the Krebs to the Calvin cycle. There are large scale cycles happening and they are essential in regulating the nutrients and substances that are around us which without‚ life on earth could no function. One of the largest cycles that occurs all around us is in everyday life is the carbon cycle. The current atmospheric
