BIOLOGY CH 10 GENETICS WORKSHEETS - ANSWERS Section 10-1 VOCABULARY REVIEW 1. A purine is a nitrogen-containing base with two rings of carbon and nitrogen atoms. Examples may include adenine or guanine. 2. A pyrimidine is a nitrogen-containing base with one ring of carbon and nitrogen atoms. Examples may include cytosine or thymine. 3. A complementary base-pair is a pair of nitrogencontaining bases connected to each other by hydrogen bonds. Examples may include adeninethymine and cytosine-guanine

in active transport is the movement of substance in uphill direction...there is energy requirement(ATP.NA/K pump) 6.A semi permeable membrane means that the membrane is selective in what is allowed into the cell. Some items such as toxins or some proteins are too big to enter the cell with out facilitaion. Other things such as gas and water are small enough to pass through. These items are usually hydrophilic and ionic it makes them easier to pass through the membrane. So basically semi permeable

immortal and comes in part from special cellular components called germ granules. Germ granules are small masses of proteins and RNA that are found just outside the nucleus of germ cells (Updike and Strome‚ 2010). It is thought that these germ granules influence the totipotency and identity of germ cells. (Hanazawa et al.‚ 2011) Here we address whether the depletion of ribosomal protein and translation factors (RPTFs) during early developmental stages result in the expression of germ granules in the

Cell membranes are a bilayer make up of phospholipids‚ proteins‚ and cholesterol. Its main function is to regulate what comes in and out of the cell by means of diffusion‚ transport proteins and protein channels. Trans membrane proteins transport polar solutes across hydrophobic regions of the bilayer. Diffusion occurs when solutes are transferred from a high concentration of that solute to a lower concentration of solutes. Solutes do not depend on the concentration of other solutes‚ which allows

Introduction Zoonotic intestinal parasites are prevalent around the world. One of the most common and studied is transmitted by the microscopic protozoan‚ Giardia intestinalis‚ also known as G. lamblia and G. duodenalis (Ivanov‚ 2010). This eukaryotic parasite is responsible for the transmission of the most common waterborne disease‚ giardiasis‚ which causes watery diarrhea‚ vomiting‚ and has even been linked to irritable bowl syndrome (Ankarklev et. al. 2010). Since its discovery in 1681‚ Giardia

represents weak-binding state at low P02 and strongbinding state at high P02 ii. Hemes 1. The heme binds O2‚ not the protein 2. Function of protein: provides crevice – keeps heme from oxidizing a. absence of protein: ferrous atom (Fe2+) ferric state (Fe3+) b. heme buried in hydrophilic environment of protein: O2 binding does not result in oxidation 3. Heme structure a. Each polypeptide of protein is made from 8 residues 6 helices – A‚ B‚ C‚ D‚ E‚ F b. Fe2+ has 6 coordinating bonds i. 4 bonds = nitrogens
