contraction; nerve transmission; synthesis; translocation; nitrogen fixation; receptors ENERGY TRANSFERS WHICH TAKE PLACE INSIDE LIVING ORGANISMS Living organisms including all plants and animals require energy for their cellular processes. In biological processes‚ the immediate energy source is often in the form adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The nucleotide ATP maintains both catabolic and anabolic reactions. An example of a catabolic reaction is respiration where large molecules are broken down into

Exercise 13 MITOSIS: REPLICATION OF EUKARYOTIC CELLS ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS 1. a. Mitosis and cytokinesis are often referred to collectively as "cellular division." Why are they more accurately called cellular replication? The result of mitosis is production of two cells (replicates) identical to the parent cell. The genetic material is replicated rather than divided. b. Does the cell cycle have a beginning and an end? The organization of our study of cellular events indicates a beginning and

Mitosis is a process of cell duplication‚ or reproduction‚ where one during this process gives growth to two identical daughter cells; however‚ there is no crossing over. Mitosis is asexual and has 1 division of the nucleus in cytokinesis (Simon‚ Reece‚ & Dickey‚ 2010). Meiosis is the splitting up of germ cells‚ with each possessing half the number of & Dickey‚ 2010). Meiosis is sexual and has 2 nuclear and cytoplasmic divisions. However‚ one must remember they both are preceded by Interphase

Unicellular organism From Wikipedia‚ the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation‚ search "Single-celled" redirects here. For prison cell assignment‚ see Single-celling. Valonia ventricosa is among the largest unicellular species. A unicellular organism‚ also known as a single-celled organism‚ is an organism that consists of only one cell‚ unlike a multicellular organism that consists of multiple cells. Historically the simple single celled organisms have sometimes been referred to as monads

Meiosis is the separation of a diploid cell in which results in the production of four haploid daughter cells containing half the number of chromosomes that were found in the parent cells. For example‚ the starting number of chromosomes is 46‚ which are paired into groups of two making 23 pairs of chromosomes. The process of meiosis is broken down into two courses: meiosis I and meiosis II. Before the stage of meiosis‚ a cell must undergo a phase described as interphase. Interphase consists of three

PRACTICAL 2 Title: Modelling of mitosis Objectives: To represent the pairs of homologous chromosomes by using pairs of model chromosomes. Introduction: Materials: 1. Noodles 2. Cutter Method: 1. The pair of model chromosomes is used to demonstrate how the two chromosomes line up at the beginning of mitosis. 2. After that the way of the sister chromatids of each chromosome separate into two separate chromosomes is demonstrated. 3. The spindle fibers that pull the sister chromatids apart is represented

most efficient at reproducing while simultaneously eliminating competition which are two of the most fundamental characteristics of life. Despite these remarkable abilities‚ most biologists are in agreement that these simple structures are in no way living. I would disagree with this statement. When first approaching this problem‚ many would first try and define life. This only serves to further complicate the issue. One of the simplest

I believe that science is something that everyone should know of. Science is everywhere and used for many important things. I think this way because first‚ science is used for medical reasons. Next‚ without science no one would know where humans came from. Lastly‚ science provides many answers about the universe we live in
