AP Biology Study Guide — Online Activities Chapter 16 The Molecular Basis of Inheritance First read through the chapter while looking for references to figures. When you come to them stop reading for a second and study what each figure has to say and show‚ then continue reading. I can’t stress how important it is to study these figures as you read the text.

provided by ATP or a difference in electrical charges across a cell membrane. Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) A molecule that provides energy for cellular reactions and processes. ATP releases energy when one of its high‐energy bonds is broken to release a phosphate group. Adhesion The intermolecular attraction between unlike molecules. Capillary action results from the adhesive properties ofwater and the molecules that make up plant cells. Agriculture The artificial cultivation of food‚ fiber‚ and

The upper most strand is the (coding strand) DNA base sequence (triplet) of the gene codes for synthesis of a particular polypeptide chain. The second strand is the mRNA base sequence (template strand used for copying) codon of the transcribed mRNA. The process for going from the upper stand to the second strand is called Transcription and involves an enzyme called polymerase. The polymerase attaches to the promoter region (start codon) and reads the nucleotide base sequence until it gets to a termination

“Denaturation of Proteins” Denaturation is a process in which proteins or nucleic acids lose the tertiary structure and secondary structure which is present in their native state‚ by application of some external stress or compound such as a strong acid or base‚ a concentrated inorganic salt‚ an organic solvent (e.g.‚ alcohol or chloroform)‚ or heat. If proteins in a living cell are denatured‚ this results in disruption of cell activity and possibly cell death. Denatured proteins can exhibit

Biology Exam Review Unit One – Biochemistry What is an isotope? Isotope - An isotope is all atoms of the same element that have the same number of protons‚ but they may have different numbers of neutrons in the nucleus. - This means that all atoms with the same atomic number can have different atomic masses. - Because they have the same number of protons and electrons‚ they behave exactly the same in chemical reactions. Radioisotope - The nuclei of some isotopes of an element are unstable

form Thalassemia (الرؤوف‚ 2009).Third reasons is the treatment of Thalassemia. WHAT IS THALASSEMIA? Thalassemia is genetic disorders that involve the decreased and defective production of hemoglobin‚ a molecule found inside all red blood cells (RBCs) that transports oxygen throughout the body (Miller‚ Thalassemias‚ 2008). As (Hashemi‚ 2011) says "Thalassemia is blood disorders ". As (Clinaero‚ n.d.) says" There are mild and severe forms of the disorder as well. Severe Thalassemia is often

were involved in the growth of the bacteria that increased our study towards their genetic‚ physical and metabolic characteristics. We used Escherichia coli and Bacteriophage T7 to identify and analyze their identical life cycle and replication that was involved in their process of growth. As‚ growth for any bacteria means it multiplying by increasing in its size and quantity‚ which can easily be examined by measuring its cell mass and cell number. Whereas‚ Bacteriophage T7 being double stranded makes
